What this sign is
Taurus (वृषभ) is the 2nd sign of the zodiac, ruled by Venus. It is a earth sign and a fixed (sthira) one — which together say most of what there is to say about how it behaves.
Being a earth sign, Taurus builds slowly and keeps what it builds — practical, steady, hard to hurry. Being fixed (sthira), it holds things — the one that sustains and resists being moved. Its ruler Venus adds its own colour on top of that, and in a real chart the ruler's position decides how much of this actually shows.

One thing worth knowing before you read any of this: in Vedic astrology your rashi is where the MOON stood when you were born, not the sun-sign the date ranges give. The Moon crosses a sign in about two and a quarter days, so the date table is right by luck rather than by rule — most people reading a column have been reading the wrong one.
This is the sign, not your chart
A rashifal is written for a twelfth of the world at once. Your own chart is cast from your date, exact time and place — and it says something no sign column can.
Common questions
- Who is the lord of Taurus?
- Venus rules Taurus. Wherever Venus sits in a chart, it carries this sign's affairs with it.
- Which nakshatras fall in Taurus?
- Krittika, Rohini, Mrigashira — each nakshatra spans 13°20', so a sign holds two and a quarter of them and the ones at the edges are shared with the neighbouring sign.
- Is my rashi the same as my sun sign?
- One thing worth knowing before you read any of this: in Vedic astrology your rashi is where the MOON stood when you were born, not the sun-sign the date ranges give. The Moon crosses a sign in about two and a quarter days, so the date table is right by luck rather than by rule — most people reading a column have been reading the wrong one.
