Taurus

Taurus is known as the expert on all things pleasurable. The earth sign's inner compass is always pointed toward beauty and sensuality, so it should be no surprise that it's ruled by the planet of Venus. The determination and stability associated with Taurus are amplified by the fixed quality of the sign. This is a sign that is firmly grounded in the material world, with a preference for the very best that it has to offer. Taurus revels in feeling things deeply, rooting down, and finding stable joy. Ruled by the Bull, the sign is most at peace in its own territory.

On a good day, Taurus' energy is loyal, trustworthy, supportive, luxurious, and romantic. On a bad day, watch out for materialism, laziness, arrogance, stubbornness, and gluttonous tendencies. Finding flexibility is Taurus' big challenge, especially when a situation calls for quick adaptation. When the planets move through Taurus, you may notice recurring themes relating to your material surroundings: money, possessions, and physical resources.

Even if your birth chart has no planets in Taurus, this grounded and sensual sign still affects certain areas of your life. A Sanctuary astrologer can explain your personal relationship to this sign by reading your birth chart.
