TAURUS
The Symbol & Its Meaning
The primary symbol of Taurus is the Bull. This powerful animal represents the core Taurean essence: strength, determination, stability, and a deep connection to the earth and the physical world. The Bull is not easily moved, symbolizing Taurus's renowned stubbornness, but also their incredible perseverance and reliability.
Beyond the Bull, the glyph or astrological symbol for Taurus (♉) is a circle with horns on top. This glyph is often interpreted as the head of a bull, with the circle representing the soul or spirit and the upward arcs representing the horns, ready to manifest desires into reality.
As a Fixed Earth sign, Taurus embodies grounded energy, patience, and a strong appreciation for life's sensual pleasures—beauty, taste, touch, sound, and scent. Governed by Venus, the planet of love and beauty, Taurus seeks harmony, comfort, and enduring value in all things.
