What Taurus is like

Symbol: The Bull
Element: Earth
Modality: Fixed
Ruler: Venus
Usual dates: April 20 to May 20

Taurus is the zodiac's steady hand. A fixed earth sign ruled by Venus, Taurus builds: slowly, deliberately, and to last. There's an unhurried quality here that can read as slowness from the outside and feels, from the inside, simply like refusing to be rushed into something that isn't right yet.
