What’s a Taurus?

Taurus is the second Zodiac Sign and their dates go from April 20 to May 20. They are Earth Signs. These are dependable people who are highly practical individuals. You can always count on them to do what they say they will. They are also realistic and stable people. They are materialistic because they understand that money, resources, and the comforts of all these things make life easier. They are Fixed Signs. Being a Fixed Sign makes them even more reliable because they are focused on goals, especially long term ones. They have the patience and determination to do whatever it takes to get things done right.
They share their ruling planet, Venus, with Libra. Venus makes these Signs have a love of beauty, comfort, and luxury. Venus makes their people focus on personal relationships. So they aren't just focused on their own comfort, but they want to make the people they love comfortable too. Taurus takes this a step further, and they are master nurturers. They love to be needed, and will reach out to every heartbroken individual, misfit, and stray who they think they can help. These lucky people Taurus finds out over time that once Taurus is dedicated to a relationship, very little makes them walk away.

Most Noticeable Taurus Traits
It’s true that this article is about lesser known Taurus traits, but we thought we would discuss a few of the most noticeable ones first. Tauruses are very nurturing, and excellent homemakers. They are also very patient.
Nurturing
If you're having a bad day, need some advice, some hot soup, or help with anything, ask a Taurus. They are born to help people. They will be the first to say a kind word to a stranger. They will be the first to offer a co-worker or teammate a ride when they need it. They will also be the first to offer to share their lunch when you've forgotten yours. Tauruses just aren't happy unless they're doing something to take care of people. It's because of that Venus influence. They love to be comfortable, and they are kind enough to understand that everyone else deserves to be comfortable too. Don't hesitate to ask them if you need help.
Homemakers
Tauruses are expert homemakers. They know how to gather the perfect things to make any house a perfect nest. They have all the best foods, all the best blankets and furniture, and they probably have a fabulous medicine chest of remedies for things that you can take care of without seeing a doctor. As you can imagine, because they've created such a perfect home, they like to stay home. These homebodies don't just keep to themselves, though. They love to welcome the people in their lives into their home. To them, their home is their sanctuary and a place of healing. To be invited into that sanctuary is an honor.

Patient

If anybody has the patience to teach beginners how to do something, stick with something over a long period of time, or just wait for someone, it's a Taurus. They understand that rushing results gets things done wrong, and anything worth doing is worth doing properly. Some Signs are always in a hurry, but Taurus has the patience to wait. They are not built to be antsy, impatient, or in a rush to get to the next thing. They know how to live in the moment and be gracious about it.
Lesser-Known Taurus Traits
Most people know about traits we just listed, though. There are some traits that you might not know about. Tauruses are excellent at reading people and can tell things about you the minute they meet you. They are also very resourceful and value quality over quantity. Read on to learn ten lesser known Taurus traits.
Composed
Maybe it's their ability to be so patient, but Tauruses are calm, cool, and collected. It takes a lot to push them to an emotional reaction. Anyone who has seen that knows it's not pretty. At any other time, Taurus is extremely well composed and logical. They focus on the facts, getting things done properly, and listening. Gemini and Libra get a lot of credit for diffusing difficult situations, but when you want someone who is unlikely to react to emotional people, ask a Taurus to help. They understand that we should pick our battles and some things are just not worth getting all bent out of shape over. They do get angry sometimes, but that can be controlled.

Materialistic
Tauruses aren't born to hoard, but some of them learn. They do love to surround themselves with their things. They also like to organize their things their own way. If you live in a Taurus run household, they will probably arrange your things for you too. They are also very good at saving things and packing them away for the future. This is great news in case you need to borrow something. Just ask your Taurus if they have what you need. If they don't, they probably know where to find it cheap. They understand that the right things make life easier. More is more to a Taurus.
People Readers
Taurases have the psychic ability to take one look at someone and know things about them instantly. Some of them do very well in sales, counseling, and in any area where they have to do management work because they can read people so well. They can tell if your new boyfriend is trouble, if the new boss is incompetent, or if they're going to hit it off with someone and be friends for life. Tauruses don't always let on how much they can tell about people at first sight. Just know that they are paying attention and if you need some insight, simply ask.

Creative

Being ruled by Venus instills powerful creativity in Tauruses. They might not be the most famous artists in town. They do know beauty, and they do know how to create it. They also know how to create situations, opportunities, and build bridges. It's not surprising for a Taurus to have a hobby or a job in the arts. It's also not unusual for them to have a job in management because they know how to create solutions. Combine their patience level with hard work and they can make anything happen. They're also blessed with an eye for beauty. They put themselves together very fashionably. And they typically decorate their homes and gardens marvelously.
Resourceful
Since Tauruses are materialistic, you would think that they blew a lot of money on things. Not necessarily. They know how to get by comfortably on pretty much any income. They are great at finding resources that don't even require money. They understand that their number one most important resource is people. People get you places, get things done, and enjoy the journey with you. They know who has the best prices on things, multiple different places to get things, and who loves to trade. You will never go without if a Taurus loves you because they know how to get you anything you want and everything your heart desires. Just make sure to reciprocate so they feel appreciated.

Quality Over Quantity
Taureans might be materialistic people who have plenty of stuff, but they will have only the best of things. They will also only allow the best of people around them. Tauruses understand that life is meant to be enjoyed. If you have low quality things and lousy people surrounding you, life is miserable. They would rather have a few close friends than a huge group of friendly acquaintances who don't care about them. They will also save their money and take their time buying the things that are right as opposed to grabbing the first thing that's on sale. They will also be happy to help you find the best quality things and people.
Possessive
Taurases are downright possessive. If you share a home with a Taurus, you live under their roof. They don't let just anybody near their people who they love, and they don't let just anybody near their things. It's not that Tauruses are greedy. It's that they have put a lot of heart and soul into gathering the best things around them. They also love their people so deeply that #1, they don't ever want to be without them, and #2, they don't want anything bad to happen to the people who they love. They are highly protective of their people and their things, and they will fight if they feel like they need to. They will fight to protect their pets too.

Mother Hens
While Taurus is being nurturing, they will fuss over you in a way that only your own mother would. They tend to be the moms or dads of their friends groups. They tend to adopt their neighbors. A lot of them who go into business even fuss over their favorite customers as if they were their own children. They will adopt the neighborhood's homeless animals, and find ways to support charities that are close to their heart. If you feel abandoned by your family or people who you love, find a Taurus and you will never feel abandoned again.
Grudge Holders
Tauruses are very sensitive people. They don't forget, and they don't always forgive. Even if you're sorry, if the trust is gone, they have a hard time letting go of things emotionally. They're not trying to be nasty. They are just that hurt. Tauruses put a lot of time and emotional energy into their relationships. If you hurt someone who they love, they will never get over it. If you are someone who they love and trust and you hurt them, they will never get over it. Some of them even get revenge for years down the road if possible and complain about the people who hurt them to whoever will listen. Grudges aren’t always bad. Read why here: Are Grudges Good or Bad?
Foodies
Not every Taurus cooks up a storm or eats a lot, but all of them love food. Being ruled by Venus gives them a love of the physical pleasures, and food is one thing that makes people feel bad or good. Taurases will feed you if they love you, make sure there is food at gatherings, offer you food and drink when you come to visit, and send you home with food. Sitting down at the table with loved ones is a very big deal for Tauruses. Some of them are the slowest eaters in the bunch, because they love to take their time and enjoy eating, especially if the people they love eat with them.
A Last Word
Tauruses are well known for being stable people who will go out of their way to nurture you. Some people don't know that when a Taurus takes you under their wing, they will take care of you for life. They will feed you, give you things you need, and protect you with their lives. The trick is that you need to reciprocate with them. It's hard for them sometimes to accept things, but your presence, love, and appreciation is more than enough. There will come a day though that you are called to help them. It will make them love you even more when you come through when they need you.
Tauruses spend every minute they can taking care of the people they love. Not only will they help you with anything you need, but they make sure that you are well fed and comfortable in their home. They are very possessive of all that they have, including their relationships. That's because Tauruses love deeply. They want to protect the sacred things that they are blessed to have in their lives, including you. Tauruses are highly intuitive people whose psychic abilities make them outstanding judges of character. That's one reason why it makes them so good at choosing who they want to have in their lives. It's almost like it's love at first sight. One thing is for sure though. Taurus will make you love them.
Taurus is a reliable, nurturing Sign. They are known for being very patient individuals who go out of their way to take people under their wings. What some people don't know is how carefully they protect their relationships and the wonderful things they have in their lives. A lot of people don't know that Tauruses are hurt easily and hold a grudge to emotionally protect themselves. All you need to know is that when a Taurus takes you into their life, they really mean it. Lucky you.
