General Characteristics of Taurus

Sensual Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty. Your sign loves great food, romance and beautiful things. Venus kicks your five senses into high gear, so you are are happiest when surrounded by the best of everything. Satin sheets, gourmet dinners, a glass of red wine, and boom...you're relaxing into one of your famous, 14-hour naps. Not that you don't work hard, too. Like a bull, Taurus operates at two speeds: either totally relaxed, or charging headfirst towards a target. You prefer to keep the peace, but when you're pushed past your limit, watch out! Underneath it all, you just want to be comfortable, and surrounded by life's finest offerings. Taurus knows what s/he likes, and that's that. You stick with your opinions, and you don't change unless there's a really good reason. You can be stubborn...but on the upside, you're also loyal and dependable. Just be careful not to get stuck in a safety zone or your life could become stagnant. Take a chance and try something new. Sometimes, change and risk can bring the progress and reward you're wishing for.
