Taurus

The Sun is officially in Taurus now and it is here to stay for a month.  Taurus is the second sign of the Zodiac and the ruler of the second house - the house of resources.  People often refer to this house as the house of money and material things but we know that has been shifting lately and resources can mean many different things among which are those of the non-material form.  Taurus is an Earth sign, it is closely connected with the soil and all that comes from the soil.  Just as the soil has been cultivated by people and farmers for years and years, Taurus has been waiting patiently for the fruits of the hard work and the cycle repeats year after year.  It reminds us that things can't be rushed.  Patience is its virtue.  I can't picture any other sign being so patient with the changing of seasons and the timing when cultivating the Earth.  Gemini would get too impatient, Scorpio not interested at all, Pisces would get lost in their thoughts.  Taurus is the perfect sign when one needs a steady and a reliable work to be done.  Taurus is also a fixed sign (the season has settled).  Taureans are considered easygoing and placid, they are slow to anger but if pushed too far, they can be raging.  The ruling planet of Taurus is Venus.  Venus is all about creativity and appreciation of life's little (and big) luxuries.  Let me finish with a small movie about Taurus.  It is funny but don't take it too seriously.  But I do have to say Taurus really appreciates good food, good drinks and a comfortable and cosy environment.
