What is a Taurus?

Taurus is the second sign in the zodiac, relating to those born between April 20th and May 20th. Like Virgo and Capricorn, Taurus is an Earth sign.

This makes a Taurus practical and grounded. The Taurus ruler is Venus, the planet of love, beauty and creativity. The bull represents the Taurus sign.

What are the Key Traits of Taurus?

Taureans have a number of key traits that help shape their personalities. They are loyal, practical and creative.

As Earth signs, a Taurus is practical and grounded. They generally find it easy to stick to tasks – which makes them great employees.

They are also loyal friends and partners, although they can be overprotective and resistant to change.

Of course, with a ruler like Venus, Taureans are also creative and loving. They are often great cooks, gardeners and artists, although, like many creative types, they may struggle with criticism!

Positives traits of Taurus

A Taurus is reliable, patient, practical, creative, stable and loyal.

Taureans make wonderful friends, and are always willing to lend a hand to their nearest and dearest. Their friendships tend to last a very long time.

A Taurus will also place great value on their familial relationships. They tend to love children and appreciate spending time with their loved ones.

They make great hosts, as they often love cooking and entertaining.
As employees, Taureans are some of the best!

They are reliable, hardworking, patient and precise. They tend to stick to projects firmly, and find it very easy to maintain stability and focus.

Of all the signs, Taureans are some of the most money driven, which can be seen as both positive and negative. In order to afford the luxurious life they want, Taureans work hard, with determination and gusto.

Negative traits of a Taurus

Like all the signs, a Taurus does have qualities that many would view as negative. They can be stubborn, possessive and often overtly blunt! They may also be resistant to change. Of course, these qualities are what make a Taurus who they are, but they do need addressing if Taureans are to maintain peace and harmony in their lives.

As you’d expect from smart, hardworking, and determined people, Taureans can be very stubborn. While they work extremely hard for their own gain, they may struggle to fulfil someone else’s demands, either at work or school.

They can occasionally struggle to see things from another person’s point of view, which can make things awkward during times of conflict.

While Taureans are fiercely loyal, they can also be very possessive. They are protective of their friends and family, often overtly so, This protectiveness can lead to outbursts of anger, and in fact many Taureans struggle to control their tempers.

Finally, Taureans are very straight-talking. While many Brits love to tiptoe around the issue to avoid offence, Taureans are truthful and blunt.

This is what makes them such fantastic friends, as you’ll always know where you stand! However, for those who are easily offended, a straight-talking Taurus can be a little unnerving.
