Taurus – You Mess With the Bull…
All right, how do I encompass the Taurus? Good question. This will be an interesting one to compile. My experiences are as varied as can be, but the veins remain the same in all these horny bastards. (That pun IS intended.)
Taurus is stubborn. There, I thought I would get that one out of the way. There are few Tauri out there who don’t know that about themselves so I don’t feel bad saying it. They are brutally and unforgivably stubborn. This can be a good thing at times, because it can manifest in ways that are positive. You wonder how that is possible. Alright, I’ll tell you.
The Taurus gets shit done. You have a problem, need some heavy lifting done, need a business plan drafted, need help moving? Who shows up for that one? Two guesses. Yeah, it’s usually Taurus. Taurus is an Earth sign, and one of the tendencies of Earth signs is to be the cement foundation on which other people’s projects are built. Tell a Taurus an idea you have and they will either completely support it and want to help you achieve it, or they will try to ‘help’ you realize a better way to do it. They don’t do anything half-assed.
George Clooney: showing the Taurus goofball side, whilst being the constant bachelor
Taurians can be really funny. In a deadpan, intellectual, dry, Monty Python kind of way (as with the men) or a slapstick, pie in the face, change
their name to Vagina for a day kind of over the top hilarious, (as with some Taurus women). Their sense of humor is very strong and they appreciate the humor in others, even if they don’t have people rolling in the aisles constantly. The Taurian humor is like a slow cooker. The people around them will be throwing one liners, dropping jokes, having a blast, while Taurus observes quietly. Then, as the lull in the conversation hits, the Taurus will say something, low and soft, quiet and brilliant, and the group will pee their pants. The Taurus doesn’t know how to start their own fires. They take their time, as with everything. Yet, when the iron is hot, they strike with precision.
If a group of people are in a room while the building is on fire, the person standing calmly at the center of the bedlam as everyone loses their minds, that’s the Taurus in the room. They are completely unphased by most things, even when it seems like the time to lose your cool.
The Funny Female Taurus has NO fear...that they'll show
Taureans tend to be very loyal. Well, let me put it this way, they don’t like to let go of their friends. If a Taurus is fond of you, whether they mean to or not, they see you as a possession. Losing you is a loss on a material level almost and they will fight to avoid that. I have even seen some Taureans remain in and return to toxic relationships because they don’t want to give up their claim on the person.
On the flip side of loyalty, Taureans can be dirty hos. No offense Taurus, but you can get around. If they aren’t in a committed relationship, they’re usually pretty cool with casually dating and banging a good number of people while they are free, perhaps even more than one at a time. No trouble there. Taurus tends to take a long ass time to actually admit and warm to the idea of having legitimate feelings for someone. No matter
how much a Taurus likes someone, they will take their sweet ass time getting into a serious relationship. Oh, and if their girlfriend is the one instigating dates all the time, they will get annoyed. They want you to wait for them to ask.
Taurus women tend to be some classy broads. The way they hold themselves, walk, dress, accessorize. The ultimate example of a Taurus woman
would be Katherine (or Audrey) Hepburn. They have poise, when they want, that will be unparalleled in the room. If they don’t own pearls, they’d fawn at some as a gift. And when it comes to men, they will want to be courted like a lady.
I imagine she's saying, "No, but let me just tell you." Example of a Classy broad Taurus
Taurus women are very old fashioned when it comes to courting. They want to be taken care of and they want to be wined and dined, as they say. If you can’t afford to pull your own with a Taurus, money will be something you fight about constantly if you manage to win her, because though
she wants you to buy her nice things, she does NOT want you spending money on anything else if it affects her quality of life. Possession, again. What’s yours is ours and what’s mine is mine CAN happen with a Taurus.
Taurus men can take FOREVER to get married. Forever!
That tendency toward possessiveness can get truly dark with Taureans. Some female Tauri will entrap to avoid loss. She will know her cycles like a watchmaker knows cogs, know exactly when to expect her Aunt Flo, be obsessive compulsive about birth control… until she sees her man slipping away. If she fears a guy is going to leave and she disagrees with that choice, a Taurus woman is the most likely of the zodiac to get pregnant on purpose without telling her partner her plan (I know of two examples of this behavior in Taurus women, personally). On the flip side, though I have never witnessed this personally, this could translate for a Taurus man into poking holes in condoms to achieve a similar effect if he is afraid of losing his woman.
My Favorite Taurus: Talk about gift of the gab...
Oh, and here is one truly Taurean trait, I can’t believe I almost forgot to mention this bit of info.
The Taurus can fucking talk. For hours…and hours…and hours. The Taurus will gab your ear off, write eight page emails to explain that they can’t make it to dinner, tell seventeen different side plots of their day before finally, two hours later, getting to the point of their story. Yeah, that’s a Taurus. Some Taurus can pull this off and it is endearing, others can be so bad, they’re just waiting for their turn to talk in a conversation. If you
have a good Taurus, the long winded side will be endearing, when they do open up. If you have a quiet Taurus, you must be the gabber in the relationship. Hush and ask him how he is and then let him go. Don’t interject, don’t ask questions, just sit with him silent, no matter how hard it is. He will open like the sea for Nazareth! (I don’t know if my biblical references make sense, just go with it) AND, he will probably find it a huge release. They might not have anything huge or important to say, they just love conversation.
Oh, and random detail…Hitler and Oliver Cromwell were both usurping dictators, but Taurus. Think about it… Why, I don’t know. I just like random facts.
Yep, we’re ****ing awesome.
See? We can be succinct too.
Yup. You more or less nailed it. I would say of course threre are natural variances in individuals (of course) but there are some common traits you mention that made me nod as I read. Now I’m waiting for the Gemini lovefest/skewering with even greater anticipation.
Can you trust them in a faithful marriage? I know their sexual appetite is legendary. Im a scorpio woman(11/13) in love with a taurus man (4/24).
Hey Sandy,
As far as loyalty to a marriage, if you’re concerned that he might not be, I’d say your instincts are more important than his birth sign.
Hmm…I’m a Taurus woman and I would never trap a guy by getting preggers behind his back. Having a baby with a guy who doesn’t love you or want to be with you will not fix a relationship. Us Taurus women know that!! We would never chase a guy who didn’t think we were the most amazing woman in the world. In fact–we don’t chase, WE GET CHASED! We will **not** take 2nd place to any other woman. You either see how absolutely amazing we are or eff off. We need to be worshiped by our man. If you cannot handle this, step aside; we have too many guys to choose from. We will never beg or pathetically entrap you. NEVER.
Your rising sign might have an effect on your approach to the world, but I’ll be real – a single occurrence would be a random event, two would be a coincidence, three would be a pattern. And that’s just three women I personally know who are Taurus females who have done this. Beyond those three personal acquaintances, I know of several more. It’s not always to entrap, sometimes it’s just “I’m having a baby. Like it or not.”
It’s just a pattern.
And as far as YOU knowing a guy that doesn’t love you isn’t worth the time, that’s a healthy psychological declaration, but sadly if the Taurus is still in love with said d-bag, Taurus will do effing anything. Taurus will stay with a cheating d-bag if she loves him. Believe me, I know me a shit ton of them who’ve done one or the other.
There’s always people who don’t march with their comrades. It’s usually because they’re rising sign overpowers the sun sign.
You should find out yours.
