Apr 20 - May 20

Worship of Taurus' symbol, the bull, was celebrated during the Taurean Age, which extended from about 4,000 to 2,000 B.C. The bull's horns represented fertility, growth, and generation, analogous to spring, when the earth is fertile and everything is growing abundantly. Living under the first earth sign in the zodiac, you Taureans appreciate all the good things the physical world has to offer. In fact, the more beautiful and sensually pleasing something is, the better. You cherish luxurious material goods, fine food, financial growth, culture and everything that is pleasurable and comforting, and you don't mind working hard or long to acquire it.

ACQUISITION is your keyword. It is your motivating force. Your practical, down-to-earth qualities and your ability to be totally focused might go to waste if there weren't some material reward to be gained. You enjoy making steady progress along constructive lines, and you pursue your goals with persistence and determination. Your patience and tolerance stem from your self-reliance. You know you have the willpower and tenacity to bring about whatever you desire through routine and regularity. But if your pattern has been interrupted or you're overextended, you can become impatient, obstinate, argumentative and cantankerous.
