Taurus is ruled by the lovely goddess, Venus who is considered to be the goddess of love, pleasure and beauty. One can see these traits in most of the Taureans especially women.

The personal mantra that is believed to be followed by every Taurean is that if you do not succeed once, try and try again. To others, may be a Taurean appears to be a little sluggish and lazy, but just a wave a red flag, and then see. Taureans gets charged the moment they are nagged for something.

A very special quality that a Taurean man has it in himself is that whatever the situation may be, or whatever problems he is going through, he meets every challenge on time with pride and determination.

A Taurus woman is caring and tender, and she may have some firm opinions that cannot be changed. The sensible and patient Taurus woman has winning qualities; however, she can be explosive, stubborn, and short-tempered at times.  But the temper of the Taurus woman is rarely seen as she aims for balance in life.

A Taurean woman is basically unadventurous unlike Taurus man. She does not like changes. She prefers to maintain a status quo. Whatever experiences she learns from her life makes her more strong and tough from mind. She is unlikely to make the same mistakes twice.
