The sign of Taurus is upon us. As an earth sign myself, I have a special affinity for Taureans. Signifiying a bull, Taurus is the sign of strength, stamina, perseverance, and potency. Taureans prefer to live a stable life, free of sudden changes. Those born under this sign are reliable and sensitive. Great as friends and as lovers as they believe in loyalty once committed (ONCE being the keyword here) and they care a lot about those close to them. Although generally quiet and serene, Taureans are better left alone and not bothered as a strong, quick temper may reveal itself with them. Taureans can also be quite moody at times and, as such, should usually be immersed in work or other endeavors so as not to become restless.
Qualities that make Taureans lucky are realistic, reliable, openhanded, and arty. Qualities that may hinder their success are possessiveness, stubbornness, lethargy, and self-indulgence.
Taurus Birthstones
Lapis Lazuli
Lapis is a stone of awareness and insight. It opens the Third-Eye and balances the Throat chakra. This stone possesses enormous serenity, something that Taureans cherish. Lapis is also a protective stone, long used in talismans to protect against psychic attack. This stone promotes honesty, compassion, and uprightness which help combat some of the more difficult sides of Taurus.
Rhodonite
Rhodonite stimulates, clears, and activates the Heart chakra. Rhodonite is all about unselfish self-love and forgiveness. It helps clear away emotional hurts of the past, allowing one to let go of any feelings of past of abuse, betrayals, and abandonments. As such, this stone is great for sensitive Taureans that tend to carry a lot of feelings of anger and resentment when they feel their heart has suffered an injustice.
Red Jasper
Red Jasper is a stone of health, strengthening and detoxifying that activates the Root chakra. It is great for Taureans as they are known for their stamina. Red Jasper helps to rectify unjust situations, the types of situations where Taureans are likely to lose their temper. It will calm an uneven temper and provide insight into the most difficult of situations.
Carnelian
Carnelian is a stone of stability that activates and stabilizes the Root, Sacral, and Solar Plexus chakras. It gives courage and motivates for success in business matters. Perfect for stable, business-minded Taureans. Carnelian also helps with that bad temper by protecting against your own anger, rage, and resentment.
Jade
Jade is associated with the Heart chakra, increasing love and nurturing. It promotes stability of the personality and helps promote self-sufficiency. Once again, great for stable business minded Taureans. Jade is known to attract good luck and fortune. It also stimulates ideas and gives one the ability to conquer many tasks with ease.
Chrysoprase
Chrysoprase promotes love of truth. It also encourages fidelity in love and business relationships. Something that Taureans need at times when they are still in the wandering phase of their lives. Energizing the Heart and Sacral chakra, Chrysoprase helps Taureans overcome any compulsive behaviors that may lead to over-indulgence.
Green Garnet
Green Garnet is a stone of prosperity. Wearing it increases feelings of abundance and decreases feelings of scarcity caused by self-limiting beliefs. This stone helps Taureans overcome any of their nagging self-doubts that get in the way of being successful.
Happy Birthday to all the Taureans out there. 2011 is a big year for you to shine with your business savvy. Hopefully you reap the benefits towards the end of the year.
