Meaning
Taurus is fixed earth. Fixed signs hold the heart of each season and sustain things. Its traditional ruler is Venus, which acts most freely here; the planet that rules the opposite sign, Scorpio, is in detriment. Medieval medicine assigned it the throat and neck, the basis of the zodiac-man diagrams in old almanacs.
Practice
Workings that suit Taurus are timed with the Moon or Sun in the sign and opened in the hour of Venus. Contemplate The Hierophant as its gate in the tarot.
