Born A Taurean

BORN A TAUREAN

         In response to one of May's projects of "Merit Badge Projects" , I decided to research something about my own Zodiac sign -Taurus and write a poem about it. Below are the following information I gathered:

Introduction to Taurus Zodiac

         In astrology, Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac, considered as governing that portion of the year from about April 20 to about May 20. Its representation as a bull is related to the Greek myth of Zeus, who assumed the form of a bull to abduct Europa.1

What type of person is Taurus?

         Taureans, like the bull that represents them, are known to be intelligent, dependable, hardworking, dedicated, and stubborn.2

Who do Taurus usually marry?

         As a sign who values security, Taurus tends to be attracted to those who are mature and have their life together. According to Monahan, "orderly Virgo" fits the bill. "These two Earth signs can be quite domestic, and together they can create the perfect home life," she says.3

Is Taurus positive or negative?4

Positive Personality traits:
         Taurus people are very Intelligent.
         They value honesty more than their life.
         Being hardworking helps them achieve things faster.
         Taurus natives are very understanding.
         Taurus natives are very organized in many ways.
         Taurus people are known for their kindness.
         They can be very reliable for others.

Negative personality traits:
         They are too lazy to be consistent about their goals.
         They are very stubborn by nature.
         They are jealous and it holds them back.
         They are very imbalanced about various things.
         Their over-possessiveness can ruin the relationship.
         They run too far chasing perfectionism.
         Being Too rebellious bring disharmony in their life.

What is a Taurus weakness?
         Materialistic, resistant to change, fanatical, indulgent, gluttonous, possessive, stubborn, narrow-minded.5


Here is a poem about Taurus:

Born A Taurean
[28 lines | 212 words | 1,198 characters]

Who among you knew I was born a Taurean?
In the glorious month of May,
Zodiac signs could be a whimsical notion.
But I believe it somehow, someway.

Taurus is the second sign in astrology.
Governing the months of mid-April to May
Represented by a bull - is it the bully?
Not at all, listen not to what they say.

Google says we have a regal quality.
We are graceful and diligent laborers.
Despite his obstinate personality,
But very dependable and good listeners.

Taureans are said to be very intelligent.
Understanding and very hardworking.
But way too lazy to be consistent.
And are imbalanced in various things.

We are known for our kindness and honesty.
To our friends and loved ones, we're great loyalists.
But what holds us back is our jealousy.
And we have run too far to be perfectionists.

There's one more thing that you need to know.
Taureans are fated to the orderly Virgos.
Their loyal best friends are the opposing Scorpios.
Even if they are often found in a ceaseless imbroglio.

There are lots of weaknesses a Taurus may possess.
But not enough to overshadow his best traits.
Take time to get to know a Taurean and you'll be impressed.
At his own great ways that none can dictate.

         Thank you for your time spend on reading this.
