The Levels of being Taurean

i had to type this out from a book, so i only got to Taurus I and II. ugh.. i dunno when i'm gonna get to borrow the book again cuz it's from my friend, and i'm always running around so i dunno if i'll run into her. however, it's an awesome book. it's the non-free stuff.. so it's more insightful. this is the only one that she had/recommended, because it blends both astrology and psychology.

TAURUS I:


The Taurus I period takes Manifestation as its central image. This period can be likened to the time in a child?s life when real power can be exercised, often by giving concrete form to ideas and implementing them effectively. Learning to build physical structures and to set up workable systems is part of this manifestative process.

The days with comprise Taurus I symbolically reveal the elementary school-aged child developing an ever-evolving individual personality of its own within the larger structures of established institutions and society. Problems involving power struggles, diplomacy, autonomy, compromise, survival and defense arise on a daily basis and must be met. Out of this crucible character is formed.

Taurus I people are hard-headed pragmatists. They most closely resemble the commonly held image of Taurus stubbornness. When presented with a request or proposal which, as they see it, will only cause unnecessary complication or is a waste of energy they will invariably say no, without regrets. This is not to indicate, however, that Taurus I?s are inhumanly inflexible, for they can be open to suggestions and innovation under the right circumstances. Also Taurus I?s are susceptible to charm, particularly when it originates with an object of their passionate love or a favorite child, for example.

The physical aspects of life are what concern Taurus I?s the most. Building a comfortable and beautiful home, enjoying the pleasures of the tale and bed, engaging in sports and recreation, and in general, running domestic and business affairs are their forte. Indeed, the maintenance aspects of any given endeavor may involve Taurus I?s more than the exciting initiatory phase. Abstract ideas may be a source of fascination or inspiration for a time, but usually it is those of a practical nature that can be worked out in the real world which will continue to hold their attention.

Taurus I?s can be extremely agreeable and easy-going people ? as long as things are running smoothly. However, they will show less of a pleasant side of their nature to anyone they consider a troublemaker. When things are not going well, they may sink into an emotional slump for long periods of time. Rather than take action in a serious policy matter, a Taurus I may very well choose to wait. The upside of this trait is that by resisting a hasty action they often maximize their chances for success. The downside is that they may wait too long; Taurus I?s often miss opportunities in life through excessive caution.

Taurus I?s enjoy the role of boss or parent very much, even though strong leadership qualities and ambition are not necessarily characteristics of those born in this period. Their image as protector, helper or nurturer is vitally important to them. One of the strongest Taurus I talents is the ability to build a cohesive team on the bedrock of harmony and cooperation. Taurus I?s realize that the ability to get along with others may be just as important as talent or intelligence on the job.


Advice: Beware of taking on to much responsibility. Consciously work on changing yourself periodically. Beware of procrastinating in the name of prudence or god sense. Open up your horizons by exposing yourself to different disciplines and points of view.

TAURUS II:


The Taurus II period takes The Teacher as its central image. This period can be likened to the time in a child?s life when formal learning and education have taken a central role. Study becomes the basis for a future time in which the young adult will take his/her place in adult society.

The days which comprise Taurus II reveal the development of this formal learning process and stress the importance of the teacher as a role model. Devotion, awakening, moral development and independent action are all important elements here. Not only does a person at this time absorb factual information and learn how to solve abstract problems, but also develops the confidence to innovate methods and projects which have meaning according to his/her own world-view. Also, the child at this stage of life discovers how this personal orientation fits in with the larger scheme of things, particularly with regard to other subcultures and nationalities. Ultimately, the student develops the capability to teach or transmit what he/she has learned to others.

Taurus II individuals are concerned with the development and transmission of ideas and techniques. No matter what their walk in life, no matter what their profession or occupation, those born in this period have a message to share. Therefore, it is extremely important that they have someone who wishes to listen. The size of their audience may range from a single intimate to an audience of thousands, but Taurus II observations are memorable ones which tend to be repeated by others and perhaps recorded. Taurus II people generate thought through what they say and can in fact be highly influential.

Even if not teachers by vocation, Taurus II people are often engaged in similar activities. Furthermore, without verbalizing their thoughts, many born in this period can lead by example, a kind of teaching that may in fact be superior to book learning. Such Taurus II?s believe in laying it on the line and in living out their beliefs for all to see. These beliefs are not necessarily conservative ones ? in fact, many born in this period evidence quite unconventional or even radical behavior.

Those born in Taurus II are movers and shakers, and since their ideas are rarely flighty, but deal with weighty or serious subjects, they tend to impact heavily on the lives of others. Unfortunately, Taurus II?s may over time become too didactic and convinced of their own infallibility. Such Taurus II?s will have to work on flexibility and acceptance if they do not with to drive themselves into a corner. The life of a Taurus II may be a lonely one since those born in this period have a dual need to lead others but also to maintain some distance between themselves and society. As parents, they must beware of cutting themselves off from their children; as employees, from their fellow workers. Taurus II?s value their privacy very highly ? it is important for them to arrange their time as it suits them, and therefore do not take unexpected intrusions lightly.


Advice: Seek to be more affectionate and playful. Beware of strident, dogmatic or inflexible attitudes. Remember that others have gifts to teach also, and that the best teacher is often an eternal student. Set a good example by admitting your mistakes. Rework and revise your ideas periodically.

i hope you guys found that useful. i'm a TAURUS II.

the DAY you are born on is also very important, btw.

How do you figure it out?

Nevermind I claim to be a Taurus II ... unless you post a better type of bull lol

ooooops.. i forgot.. lol.

TAURUS I: April 20 - April 30
TAURUS II: May 1 - May 10
TAURUS III: May 11 - May 20

the above is just the estimation. being born on one of the two cusps would give you different interpretations, as well. i believe sometimes taurus I starts on the 24th/25th of April and ends on the 2nd of May. taurus II would them start on the 2nd/3rd of May and end on the 10th of May, and the taurus III would start on the 10th/11th of May and end on the 18th of May.

there are two taurus decante boundaries, which is the same for most other signs. just look at your degree - that should tell you which category of taurus you fit into.

I'm cuspy 🙂 May 1st here. Hey I am II lol

"I believe sometimes taurus I starts on the 24th/25th of April and ends on the 2nd of May"

Sometimes ey? Vixen you always explain things as to not leave a trace of doubt 😛

Hey, why's this on the web?

LOL, thanx gurl. you're quite a verbalist yourself. =]

i wanna post the third dacante already but i haven't ran into her yet.
