They do not stop charging and dashing their opponent nor will they calm down unless they subdue their opponent or are subdued themselves. Regardless, someone has to win and someone has to lose, and they prefer to win. The Bull has almost always been associated with strength, power, power, and tenacity. A Bull is calm and content when left alone to do as it pleases, but can charge in a matter of seconds when it feels bothered. The Bull also has been a symbol of stubbornness, as when they decide they either do or do not want to do something, they will not sway no matter how much they’re poked or prodded.
• Glyph: The glyph for Taurus is quite clear - it’s a bull’s head and horns.
• Life Stage: Taurus represents the stage where, as a baby, we become aware of not only ourselves, but the world around us. We start to become aware of possessions - how to obtain them, and how to keep them so they aren’t taken from us. When they are taken, we scream, fight, and cry. This is when we are most rattled by change, as we are still learning how the world works.
