Happy Birthday, Taurus!
April 20th - May 21st
by Aurora Tower
The Taurus woman is femininity personified. Ruled by the greatest goddess of them all, Venus (or Aphrodite to her Greek cousins), the Taurus woman represents the soothing, subtle, strong, soft, fertile ground of imagination and growth in which art, beauty, love, and life itself take their foothold. Like the buds that bloom in the earth in the Taurus early spring, there is nothing rushed, impatient, or aggressive about this sensuous creature. And like a flower, the Taurus woman needs plenty of space to grow, not to mention plenty of nourishment, and the Taurus appetite—in it’s many senses—is a wonder to behold! As she makes her way, she tends to become deeply attached to the things which foster her, be they friends, lovers, or her sense of stability and routine.
Famous cover girls who share this alluring sign include Ali Stephens, Behati Prinsloo, Linda Evangelista, Laetitia Casta, Giedre Dukauskaite, Jessica Stam, Josie Maran, and Raquel Zimmermann. Modeling icons like Dorian Leigh and Lisa Fonssagrives were also blessed with the Taurean brand of beauty. It’s something about the Taurus woman’s calm, loving demeanor yet uncompromising attitude which makes everyone—especially the men around her—stand up and take notice. People can’t help but respect her no-bs style, so what the Taurus woman wants the Taurus woman gets!
In keeping with her love for all things natural, beautiful, and finely crafted, her fashion preferences are geared toward luxurious simplicity. And because she takes her time to warm up to people and things (and trends!), she quietly cultivates what can only be described as a strong aesthetic sensibility which others rely on to guide their more impulsive tastes. This is a woman with style. It might not be your style, but she definitely has her own and you can expect it to be heavy on natural materials such as cashmere, silk, and leather—anything soft to the touch. Occasionally she can be swayed from her more tailored style toward overtly girly looks—she is ruled by Venus after all! Pastels, especially pink, and florals can feature prominently. Even the occasional crystal or sequin makes an appearance in her wardrobe.
The year ahead will be a powerful one for you, Taurus! With intense Pluto pushing you lovingly along, you will transform (to your liking!), especially in your personal life. With some serious nesting instincts kicking in, keeping your relationships and home life happy will take precedent. Your creative outlets, especially those concerned with writing or communications, could also gain a wide audience this year, so you should be prepared for business opportunities—maybe even overseas—to crop up, even while you are hunkered in at home.
