You're at a New Age expo, among others seeking growth or trying to
make the world a better place. Some are doing iridology readings,
some are analyzing past lives from one's aura, some are getting in
touch with their inner child's needs, while some are meditating to
prevent karmic earthquakes. Outside the pavilion, a janitor is
quietly picking up litter, and stops to give food to a homeless
person. That janitor is a embodiment of what in astrology is the
characteristic called Taurus.
An inner calmness and serenity, and an ability to deal with the world
as it really is, is a virtue often underestimated, and is the gift
and goal of Taurus. Our environment is always changing, but one who's
integrated what this sign of the zodiac has to teach is able to keep
their self constant, moving through life relaxed. Positive expression
of this energy makes one adept at dealing with physical life and its
requirements, with stability and planning for future needs. Taurus is
fully in and accepting of their body and its offerings, and isn't
swayed by wishful or fanciful thinking. The old statement that
"Tauruses don't believe in astrology" is frequently true, unless they
are able to experience astrology as reality for them self.
As with all energies, there are lessons in how to use it. One may go
overboard in expression, turning the inner calmness into rigidity and
inflexibility, the realism into materialism, or the reliability into
overly seeking security. Nothing can be more stubborn or
"bull-headed" than Taurus, but that attitude can be harmful in the
long run, because one must change to grow and to keep life from
getting in a rut. Wood buildings that can give and sway some survive
earthquakes better than solid brick ones. Taurus: Picture an
elephant, strong and enduring, yet with a trunk more sensitive then
the human finger.
