Taurus symbolism


Non-random selection from my home library. Pages 62 to 65 of Sun and Moon Signs: An Indisposable Illustrated Guide to Astrological Characteristics, by Julia and Derek Parker, and published by DK Publishing, features symbolism associated with the zodiac Taurus, the sign of the bull, assigned to people born a day from 21 April to 21 May.

  • Flowers: primrose, columbine, daisy, foxglove, poppy, violet
  • Trees: ash, cypress, vine, almond, fig, apple, pear
  • Herbs: spearmint
  • Spices: all, particularly, cloves
  • Metal: copper
  • Gems: emerald and moss agate (because green is the Taurean color)
  • Animal: all types of cattle (no surprise there)

In different sections this month, will post stuff I find related to the month of May, or the zodiac sign Taurus, or maybe even the Year of the Ox (my birth year in Chinese astrology).
