The Taurus Horoscope

Our delineation of the Taurus horoscope follows a very logical method, based on ancient basic and archetypal principles. It's NOT about stereotypes.

Every zodiac sign is the result of the so-called Quadruplicities or Modes (Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable signs) and Triplicities (related to the four elements: Fire, Air, Water and Earth).

The Taurus horoscope is based on the Fixed Earth energies:

• The Fixed principle is about stability, holding tight and clinging. It implies concentrated, stabilizing and controlling energy.
  
  Fixed is unchanging, undisturbed and settled. Fixed represents the "getters", "havers" and "preservers."
  
  
• The Earth principle is about material, tangible things. It's the solid-state and always very condense. It's cold and heavy. It wants to retain in a contracted manner.

Blending fixed earth into something tangible or material, you get the keyword of "concrete."

The main characteristics of the Sun (representing your self-expressing life force) in the fixed earth sign Taurus are:

• living in a physical world (emphasis on the body and the senses)
• proceeding (very) slowly, often in a reluctant way, cautious
• steady and persistent energies, inert and immovable at times
• loves comfort
• self-contained: stands firm in the own physical body
• wants to HAVE (for the sake of it)
• Taurus is the most settled sign of the zodiac
• quiet and silent, unemotional, steady and practical
• firm and dogged

Depending on your birth date, the Taurus horoscope divides into the following three decanates:
