Taurus, the sign of the bull, is the one that others count on to come through in the clutch. Driven by determination and power, Taureans tend to be successful because of the perseverance that motivates them.

Everyone seems to know that a Taurus has a temper, but rarely do they get to see it.

Taureans are patient, gentle and possess an enormous amount of common sense. Those born under this sign usually get all that they pursue in life.

Being a fixed sign, Taureans do not adapt well to change; they simply cannot be rushed into anything new.

Ruled by Venus, Taureans are romantics whose sensibility keeps their feet on the ground even while they dream among the stars.

Taurus is the second astrological sign in the Zodiac, originating from the constellation of Taurus.

It is also considered an earth sign and one of the four fixed signs. Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus (which also rules Libra). 

 The Sanskrit name of Taurus in Hindu astrology is Vrishabha.
 

Based on Elements within the Zodiac, Taurus is considered compatible with Capricorn  and Virgo.

Congratulations

to all Tauruses!

WOW, Branka!

The first prise to You!

But why "April 22, 1870 - Nicolai Lenin - Marxist" in this list?

April 22, 1870 - date of birth of Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov - Lenin

Vladimir had the brother Nickolai, but he was Ulyanov, not Lenin...

You found the new interpretation of history!

Congratulations!

You have taken  the bull by the horns!

In fairy tales the image of a bull carries out a role of the converter of the social world, establishes justice ("Ivan Bykovich", «Ivan Korovy son»), and also symbolises riches attraction («the Bull-calfe - a pitch flank»).

Whence it was moved?

A bull - the most ancient symbol in cultural tradition of the people. Sources of its honouring are looked through in the most ancient of art. And in Egypt it is found about 60 thousand burial places with sarcophagi a mummy of bulls!

Hello Dear Friend Lydia, What A Great Idea !
