Sun in Taurus - Holy Cow!

"The cows are our friends, they give food, they give strength, they likewise give a good complexion and happiness," said Gautama Buddha
April 19th is Orthodox Easter. Throughout the Orthodox Christian world Easter tables will offer various delectable dishes, inspired by certain traditional Orthodox recipes. Easter lamb is, of course the quintessential dish. However, while they celebrate Easter and feast on lamb, this day marks the arrival of a Bull....the Sun's entrance into the sign of Taurus the Bull at 6:44:24 pm.

For a chart set in New York at 6:24:24 pm, Libra is rising and the Sun in Taurus is in the 7th house. Venus, ruler of Taurus and Libra is in Pisces, exalted, and she rules the chart! What a glorious day to celebrate Orthodox Easter.

We wish all who celebrate a Joyful and Happy Easter.

Patient, and practical Taurus, the Bull has immeasurable energy but is slow to act and capable of waiting a long time for plans to mature. Never try to push a Bull around! He can be obstinate, some may say stubborn (!) and terribly enraged when pushed, although he is an amenable creature when appealed to in the right way.

Those of us who are born under the sign of Taurus, or live with someone born between April 20 to May 21 (dates depend on the year and adjust for the calendar correction for Leap Year) understand how necessary it is to appeal to Taurus the "right" way!

The symbol for Taurus is a full Moon (a circle) which on top is placed a crescent Moon (for the horns). The Moon is exalted in Taurus because the bull symbolizes fertility, as well as stability which is extremely important for the Moon.

The New Moon in Taurus is Friday, April 24 at 2:46.
