Taurus, the second sign of the zodiac, is all about reward. Unlike the
Aries love of the game, Taurus loves the rewards of the game. Think
physical pleasures and material goods, for those born under this sign
revel in delicious excess. They are also a tactile lot, enjoying a
tender, even sensual, touch. Taurus adores comfort and likes being
surrounded by pleasing, soothing things. Along these lines, they also
favor a good meal and a fine wine. The good life in all its guises,
whether it's the arts or art of their own making (yes, these folks are
artistic as well), is heaven on Earth to the Taurus-born.
It's the Bull that serves as the Taurus's mascot, and along with that comes the expectation that these folks are bull-headed and stubborn. Yes, they are. Hey, this sign has a Fixed Quality attached to it after all, so expect that things will occasionally grind to a halt. That said, Taurus doesn't start out with the intention of getting stuck. They simply want to get things done, and it's that steady, dogged persistence that winds up being viewed as stubbornness. Bulls are actually among the most practical and reliable members of the zodiac, and they are happy to plod along, as it were, in pursuit of their goals. The good news for Bulls is that once they get to the finish line, they'll swaddle themselves in material goods. A self-indulgent beast? Perhaps, but if you toiled as laboriously as these folks do, you'd need some goodies, too.
Taurus is ruled by Venus, a lovely goddess who didn't deny herself many things. In ancient Roman mythology, Venus was the Goddess of Love, Beauty and Pleasure, and Taurus has pretty much taken up where she left off. Bulls are fond of all things pretty, whether it's in their home, at a museum or on the stage. Life as one sweet pas de deux is how the Taurus-born like it. To onlookers, this may look like so much materialism and blessed excess, but Bulls really aren't interested in living without beauty in their lives. Beauty to the Bull also comes in the way of a happy home life, one that includes a partner and a stable relationship.
Taurus values harmony in their personal lives, so they'll work hard on keeping their mate happy. The Bull's penchant for sensual pleasures, of course, can only help things along! Bulls can also be the sappiest of sentimentalists. Will all this overweening attention to their mate turn a Bull into a possessive mess? Probably not, although these folks do have to manage their tendency to latch on a bit tight. At the end of the day, however, Taurus' are true romantics and loyal to the core.
The Element associated with Taurus is Earth. No pie-in-the-sky for these practical folks, since they'd much rather be on terra firma. Bulls tend toward conservatism, and this is often seen in their day-to-day behavior. No far-out schemes (that's Air) or shrieking ultimatums (more like Fire) here. Taurus much prefers to take each day slowly and steadily and work toward their ultimate goal. Along these lines, those born under this sign are happy to stick with their projects until they have reached a successful conclusion. They are also extremely patient and dependable along the way. Does that sound earthy enough? The only kink in this well-oiled chain is the heckler in the gallery that tries to upbraid the Bull. These folks may not have a hair-trigger temper, but it's short enough. Bulls in a hissy fit can get pretty argumentative, but eventually they'll calm down and come back to center, since these folks would much rather be Zen. The Earth in this sign does tend to act as a balancing mechanism so that things never get truly out of hand. For every one person who considers the Bull a pain, there are two who will say 'No way!' and happily take the Taurus' gentle charms any day.
Seeing as how Bulls are generally strong and well-built, it's no surprise that these folks enjoy testing their strength on the field of play. Expect to find a Bull engaged in a spirited game of hoops or mountain climbing. Hiking is also a favorite pastime, since it keeps Taurus close to their beloved earth. Indoor adventures are also favored by Bulls, which is why the opera or ballet is right up a Taurus's alley. When it comes to love, the Taurus-born are devoted, romantic and somewhat possessive. Their sensual nature has a way of erasing any mistakes! Since Taurus rules the neck and throat, Bulls would be wise to keep a silky scarf at hand, ideally in a warm (and soothing) earth tone.
The great strength of Taurus is in their stability, loyalty and dogged determination. Bulls want to get the job done, and they will. What better way to get the riches they so fervently crave?

RENEE'S VIEW
So I think I'm going to touch upon the true and the not about me and how I do and don't match my sign.
1. Resentful and inflexible: This is a trait I don't believe I posses. I'm actually known for my flexibility and ability to forgive. So I'm pretty far from this trait.
2. Jealous and Possessive: This I can be. I tend to be possessive not necessarily about stuff, but mostly people. I'm very jealous and I don't necessarily like to share my loved ones lol.
3. Patience, reliability and determination are something I am definitely well known for.
4. I do love the touch, I love having my feet done, I love massages, I love hugs and kisses, I love even having my hair done because I love people playing with my hair. I just like people touching me haha!
5. I don't really think I am That artistic. I mean I am artsy, I love creative things I enjoy art, but I myself don't think I'm that artistic myself.
6. Stubborn, the number one trait....yes I am =P, and I can be self indulgent at times.
7. Sappy and sentimental, yea I can be that too sometimes. I tend to love hard and I am fiercely loyal.
8. "No pie-in-the-sky for these folks" - this is very true. Although I like to dream and I do like being spontaneous sometimes, I like to plan, I like to feel in control and I like to strive for things I feel are realistic and achievable.
9. I definitely prefer to be Zen and centered.
10. I'm not really sporty however, I don't do outdoors that well LOL.
11. I love life and all things beautiful in it.
