THIRD INSTALMENT.
The Fate of Those Born Under the Sign "Taurus," Representing the Period
Between April 20 and May 19.
_Compiled and edited for_ THE SCRAP BOOK.
TAURUS: THE BULL.
APRIL 20 to MAY 19.
CUSP: APRIL 19 to APRIL 25.
The constellation Taurus, the second sign of the zodiac, is the positive
pole of the Earth Triplicity, governing the neck and throat. The higher
attributes are secretiveness and will. It is a fixed, feminine, vernal,
earthy sign.
A person born in the period of the cusp, when the sun is on the edge of
the sign, does not receive the full benefits of the individuality of
either sign, but partakes of the characteristics of Taurus and of Aries,
the sign preceding.
This is a very hard sign to overcome. It endows those born under it with a
stubborn disposition. It makes them rebellious to advice, abnormally
proud, difficult of approach, and fond of opposition to the point of
starting a controversy for the sole purpose of coming out ahead.
Slow to anger and slow to calm down, the subjects of Taurus will harbor a
grudge and will be hard to reconcile. They are fearless, kind, and
generous.
This sign gives its subjects a mind straightforward, just, inquisitive,
and shrewd. It makes them hard to fathom, and endows them with the
essential qualities of a diplomat. Their passions are fiery, but not
persistent.
They are generally very much attached to their own sentiments and
opinions; they are taciturn and tenacious; their will is steady,
persevering, and determined to reach its purpose. They are fit to command,
and have great power of concentration.
These people are usually broad-shouldered and of powerful build. The face
is full, the complexion ruddy, the nose and mouth wide. The physical
temperament will be bilious-sanguine in a southern latitude and
lymphatic-nervous in the north. They will find their best friends among
those born under Capricorn and Libra.
Their dominant faults are anger, cruelty, and stubbornness. When excited
they are utterly unmanageable. Taurus people are exacting, domineering,
and selfish in their demands.
The union of those born under Taurus and Capricorn is most auspicious;
next best is Taurus and Libra. The children of the first union will be
physically strong and robust, while those of the second will be very
bright intellectually.
Most children born under this sign are obstinate and wilful. They have
great powers of endura
