Taurus: dates and meaning

Constancy made person — what you start, you carry through to the end.

The Sun passes through Taurus from about May 15 to June 21.

The three stages of Taurus

First stage May 15 to May 26

You build before you enjoy, you need the structure sorted out first. You don't relax until the basics are secured — the financial base, the physical space, the routine — and only then do you allow yourself the rest. With money, you prioritize what's stable over what's fast, even if that means moving more slowly than others.

Second stage May 27 to June 8

For you pleasure is not a luxury, it's the proof that something is worth sustaining. If something gives you no concrete enjoyment — at work, in a relationship — you start asking yourself why you keep it going. In your relationships you need tangible gestures, not just words: what can be touched, seen or shared weighs more for you than what is merely said.

Third stage June 9 to June 21

What began in you as stubbornness ends up being the only reason things don't fall apart. You hold on to what others have already abandoned, and in your career you tend to be the one left standing when the project goes through its hardest moment — not because you don't doubt, but because you've already decided that's the place where you stay.

The dates can shift by a day depending on the year and the time. To know exactly, calculate it with your date of birth.
