Taurus Horoscope Compatibility

The astrological sign of Taurus is the second among the signs present in the zodiac chart. This zodiac sign spans between the 30^th degrees and 60^th degrees of zodiac.
 

People who are born between 21^st April and 21^st May belong to this particular sun sign. Among the four basic elements, Taurus belongs to Earth and is one of the three Earth signs along with Capricorn and Virgo. It belongs to the prominent and large constellation seen in the winter sky of Northern Hemisphere called the Taurus and is also one of the ancient constellations believed to date back to the Bronze Age.

This sign is ruled by two planets in the solar system namely, Venus and Earth. The symbol allotted to this particular zodiac is that of a Bull. This Bull represents the Cretan Bull. According to the Greek mythology, the king of Crete, Minos, had prayed Poseidon for a white bull as a sign that would confirm that only he would be the ruler and not any of his brothers.

The king of Oceans, Poseidon, has heard his prayer and sent a beautiful white bull to Minos with the condition that it would later be sacrificed to appease the Gods. Minos realized that the bull Poseidon had sent was way too magnificent to be sacrificed and thus he replaced it with another inferior white bull and sent the previous bull to his herds. However Poseidon was not fooled by Minos’s trick.

As soon as he found that the bull was replaced, he was furious and asked Aphrodite to make the daughter of Sun and Minos’s wife fall in love with the white bull as a punishment. As a result of this Pasiphae gave birth to the bull’s offspring which turned out to be half bull and half man and was known as Minotaur. Moreover Poseidon, in order to punish Minos further, passed down his rage to the bull and made it destroy the land completely.

Minotaur, which was partly bull and partly man, was gradually killed by the king of Athens and hero, Theseus. Being a bull, the people born under this sign tends to be head-strong and achieves their goal by hook or crook. They are practical and hardly day dreams or build sand castles in air. They say things the way they are and will not sugar coat it just to make it sound nice. They tend to be extremely dependable people and it is very unlikely of them to leave you at the time of need.

They are also very generous and helpful. You can always trust them blindly and if given a task they will carry out with utmost care. Be it emotionally or financially, people born under this zodiac tend to be fiercely independent. They are also extremely loyal and patient. A stressed out Taurus is hard to find. At the same time, they can also be extremely stubborn and self-indulgent. They can sometimes come off to be materialistic and also tend to be jealous and over-possessive in relationships. The Sumero-Babylonian name of Taurus is the steer of heaven.
