About Taurus
Taurus covers Apr 20 – May 20. It is the second sign of the zodiac, an earth sign in the fixed group. Fixed signs fall in the middle of a season, when its weather has settled in.
Venus is the traditional ruler of Taurus, and each daily reading names it for you. Venus rules two signs, Taurus and Libra, and is the brightest planet in the sky.
A sun-sign reading is the same for everyone born under Taurus. A chart drawn for your birth date, time and place is a different, narrower thing. Foresight, not fate.
