For you, life is about discovery. While one side of your nature is tempted to stick with something that is safe and familiar, you thrive on new ideas and even unfamiliar settings. The more you venture into that new territory in terms of ideas and activities, even passions, the more you will get the most out of life.
If you debate the rights and wrongs of joy, it becomes an impossibility
For you as a Taurus and an earth sign—and somebody who likes to get things organized—life should be fairly straightforward, except you have a tinge of the sign next to you. It’s Gemini, which has to do with having a different kind of vision; having a lively mind; noticing what’s going on in the world around you; noting what people are talking about, and new ideas.
Sometimes you don’t even realize you’ve done that. Yet at the same time, it is all about a kind of discovery that is important simply because occasionally those insights, completely unconsciously, add to your life and come up as ideas later, and you don’t even know where they came from. Being able to take advantage of them is the important thing. And the trick is to refuse to get caught up having to explain or justify them, or to come up with facts to support them. Simply dive in. That may seem unwise, but you have done it before.
And you’ll do it enough now that you’ll be increasingly aware of this very special skill— to swing from being a solid Taurus to being inquisitive, a visionary, which is what you can be at times. And it will be, the more you recognize it. This is an important part of your journey. The more you embrace this visionary part of you, the more you will accomplish, and the more you will enjoy life itself.
There have been many times that you’ve been confronted by those who are so narrow-minded that there is no point in even discussing ideas different from theirs. Still, their persistence can undermine your confidence. The fact is, part of the challenge is to trust yourself and your feelings over those who seem determined to raise doubts.
Your passion about certain ideas or activities can mean you forget obligations, including taking care of yourself. While it is unusual for a Taurus, you’re borrowing that from the sign next to yours, Gemini, which tends to get so absent-minded they forget to eat or sleep. The solution? Return to your core nature, and take care of yourself, like a good earth sign.
For you, life is about discovery. While one side of your nature is tempted to stick with something that is safe and familiar, you thrive on new ideas and even unfamiliar settings. The more you venture into that new territory in terms of ideas and activities, even passions, the more you will get the most out of life.
Don’t be surprised if certain individuals aren’t as enthusiastic about new ideas or potential changes as you are. While you’ve already explored these possibilities in depth, they’re new to others. Knowing that, invest time in explaining exactly what’s behind your feelings of enthusiasm. That should do the trick.
Taurus: APRIL 19 – MAY 19
Ruler: Venus
Symbol: The Bull
Element: Earth
Flower: Orchid
Sensuality and practicality are fundamental to you as a Taurus, the first of the earth signs. While its ruling planet, Venus, accents life’s pleasures, it’s also about assets, which means you are a gracious individual who lives both well and wisely. That’s reflected in your flower, the orchid, and your aromatic spices—cloves and sorrel. Your tree is crab apple, while your stones reflect Venus’s pastel shades in both jade and emerald.
