insights_into_taurus Dafremen Their minds are probably the most receptive in the world, and they easily assimilate the thoughts of others. At times it is quite difficult for the Taurus person to distinguish clearly between the conceptions which have originated in his own mind and those which he has unconsciously absorbed from the minds of his associates. - from The Zodiac and Its Mysteries Taurus Chapter If you've ever had a Taurus person come up and tell you a joke that you had just told them, try to be polite; they weren't stealing your material,it's not that they have a poor memory either (in fact they have a pretty phenomenal memory, rarely forgetting a thing, once learned.) It's that they liked your idea so much, they UNCONSCIOUSLY "came up with it themselves." Ever heard the saying "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery?" Well, in this case, it really IS sincere and INVOLUNTARY imitation. Remember, Taurean people nearly always reach their goals; maybe now something will actually COME of your idea! 020429 ... Dafremen Another misconception about these people is that they're lazy. Taureans are NOT lazy, they are simply dedicated to the proposition that wasting energy is a sin. Which is why you'll seldom catch them in a quick movement ( except for rare Bulls like Fred Astaire, who have heavy Gemini influences in their birth charts.) The reason Taurus people have so much strength is because the typical Bulls conserve it, the way that they conserve their money. When you put two Taureans together, it's difficult to get them to move into any sort of instant action (unless they're angry, but we'll discuss that later). In fact, moving two Bulls is twice as hard as moving one Bull ( an example of uncomplicated, sensible, Taurus-type logic ). Picture a couple of piles of rich earth, just sitting there, side-by-side. Isn't it peaceful? Neither of them wish to profane the peaceful stillness by chattering unduly. When they first meet, they'll size each other up more or less silently. No Bull is ever overly anxious to impulsively jump into an association with another Bull ( or any other kind of astrological animal ) until all the various possibilities have been carefully judged and seriously considered. - from Love Signs Tarus/Taurus Chapter 020429 ... Dafremen Their animal natures being so highly emphasized from birth, the Taurus people should exercise every means to bring it under full and complete control. Its very strength and fullness and vigor, when properly controlled and directed, is the means for making these people immeasurably powerful for good. They can aquire extraordinary psychic energy; they can become models and symbols of dignity, courage, purity, loyalty and personal excellence. Control of the passions, then, is the most important task that can enage the mind of anyone born in this sign. Undeveloped Taurus persons are the most unreasonable people on earth. They demand their own way in the pursuit of pleasure, and opposition or resistance arouses them to almost demoniacal outbursts of anger and violence. In these fits of passion they are dangerous to live or associate with, being utterly irresponsible. They rave and rant, and wreak their anger on whatever may stand in their path, whether it be inanimate objects like furniture or the very person of whom they are the most fond, when calm and in their right minds. They are not only unreasonable, but absolutely unmanageable when passion assumes its unbridled sway, and there is nothing to be done except to leave them aloneuntil their violence has spent itself and reason has returned. Then approach them in a calm and quiet way and they will show deep regret for their uncontrolled passion. - from The Zodiac and Its Mysteries Taurus Chapter A large percentage of the Taureans I've spoken with claim that they black out during these periods of rage. Be VERY careful, these normally gentle, loveable people are NOT to be f*cked with when they're enraged. Consider yourselves warned. 020429 ... Dafremen DISCLAIMER: As anyone who knows me is aware, I'm not into young folks doing stupid sh*t because they think they WANT each other in a loving way. Love comes with time and trial by fire and I think sex is just a stupid, shallow experience without love. Please hold off and get to know someone WELL before you decide to get sexually intimate with them. Knowing them well means seeing them at THEIR WORST within the confines of a romantic relationship as well as at their most attractive and enticing. It means knowing each other over the course of many months or, more likely, over the course of years. Sex without REAL love is like two people agreeing to be sex tools, objects for each other's mutual masturbations. Ok, enough of the disclaimer and the lecture...on to the good stuff. Daf - The throat and neck is Taurus's sensitive area, and light touching, kissing, and fondling of this zone will quickly raise a Taurean's sexual temperature. When fixing Taurus man's tie, lightly glide your fingernails over his throat. Brush the back of Taurus woman's neck in an affectionate gesture. Both men and women enjoy kisses and gentle bites on the back of the neck and throat. - from The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need / Astrology and Health Chapter / Taurus Section 021012 what's it to you? who go blather from
