The Taurus Reader: Steadfast & Sensual

As an Earth sign ruled by Venus, the Taurus reader seeks comfort, beauty, and substance. You don't just read a bookโ€”you experience it. The weight of the pages, the scent of the paper, the quiet corner of your favorite armchair are all part of the ritual. In 2017, your celestial energy calls for literature that grounds you, enriches your senses, and offers tangible wisdom.

Your 2017 Reading Vibe

This year, the stars suggest a return to classics and timeless narratives. Your patient and determined nature allows you to savor long, detailed prose that others might find slow. You crave stories built on solid foundations, with lush descriptions and characters who exhibit loyalty and resilience. Fantasy that builds intricate worlds, historical fiction rich in detail, and practical non-fiction that can improve your life are perfect for you.

"A book is a garden, an orchard, a storehouse, a party, a company, a counselor, a multitude of counselors."
โ€” A sentiment perfectly aligned with the Taurus soul.
