Taurus Zodiac Sign

Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac (April 20 – May 20), a fixed earth sign ruled by Venus. Taurus energy is grounded, sensual, patient, and deeply devoted — the cosmic builder who creates enduring beauty and material security through steady, deliberate effort.

Taurus is the zodiac's master of the material world — pleasure, beauty, money, and the physical senses. Where Aries rushes forward, Taurus stops to smell the roses (and plant them, and tend them for years).

Core Traits

Patient, sensual, determined, and deeply loyal, Taurus is the most reliable of the fixed signs. Their famous stubbornness is really the inverse of their greatest strength: they don't quit. The same quality that makes them unmovable under pressure makes them impossible to uproot from bad habits.

Taurus and Venus

As a Venus-ruled sign, Taurus has refined taste and an instinct for beauty. Interior design, cuisine, fashion, music, and financial investment are natural Taurean territories.

Taurus in Relationships

Taurus shows love through acts of service and physical affection. They are deeply loyal partners who take commitment seriously. Their shadow: possessiveness and resistance to change.

Taurus Season (April 20 – May 20)

Taurus season slows the year's pace, inviting pleasure, grounding, and appreciation of what you have. A time to build, consolidate, and enjoy.
