Taurus is one of the elder signs in the zodiac. In earlier ages the vernal equinox was located within the realm of the bull, roughly during 4,000-1,700 B.C. In ancient cultures, the year began with Taurus.
To the Greeks, Taurus is associated with Zeus and his transformation into a snowy white Bull. This he did as a means to abduct Europa, whom he lusted for. Thus, the Minotaur of Crete, result of this union of God and mortal, is also recognized as being associated with the second sign of the zodiac.
In the Mediterranean region, the Sun's entry into Taurus was celebrated as the Feast of Maya. The Sun was often represented by a white bull with a golden disc between his horns. This image was followed by a procession of virgins, exemplifying the fecundity of nature. This association of Taurus with the beginning of Spring, can be traced as far back as ancient Babylon.

Well for starters, Taurus is an earth sign, Scorpio is a water sign. They are both very highly sexed. So my question is that I know about Taurus' great self-control. How do you control your desires? Since you are practical and down to earth, but still bei
Taurus--Don't use or abuse people. If you want or need something, then earn it, buy it, or do it at your own expense. Don't make people believe you are in love with them when all you are looking for is security!! Have a little more compassion and alot
Oh no!!!! something is wrong with my Taurus friend. We like each other and have expressed it somewhat and stated that we want to give 100% of ourselves to each other. since he's been going through a lot, he don't feel it's fair to be with me and have a lo
about Scorpios! I am a Scorpio and the quality I admire the most from a Taurean is their stability. I find this quality in you to be very attractive. There has to be something you like about your opposite, so your turn. ;)
i've been involved with a taurus for about two years and when we first hooked up things were very good. now that the years have passed and we both have done things to hurt one another, he doesn't seem interested. the thing is, that when he's going through
