Wow, would you look at that—it’s Taurus season again! That means we’re entering a time of cozy chaos, well-deserved indulgence, and probably a little side-eye from that one Taurus friend who still hasn’t forgiven you for flaking at the last minute back in 2022.

For those born between April 20 and May 20, Taurus is the fixed earth sign of the zodiac. You can consider them grounded, consistent, stubborn, and always down for a well-planned nap session. Taurus energy is all about stability and creating comfort—which could explain why your best Taurus friend constantly has a stream of online deliveries arriving at their house.

They’re ruled by Venus, the planet of love, luxury, and “Yes, I do need another gacha figurine!” So don’t be surprised when they spend 45 minutes choosing where to eat and still end up at the same restaurant they’ve been going to for the past six years. They know what they like, and they’re not here to be adventurous—they’re here to be satisfied.

When it comes to dating, Tauruses don’t fall fast. It’s like slow-cooking a dish: it takes time, but the results are absolutely chef’s kiss. They’re known for their loyalty and affection, but that comes after you’ve proven that you’re not going to suggest hiking as a date idea and then cancel last minute.

Let’s not sugarcoat it: Tauruses are stubborn. Like, “arguing-with-a-traffic-light” levels of stubbornness. But this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Their fixed-earth energy means they’re incredibly dependable, hard-working, and determined to see things through. Need someone to manage a long project, organize a messy closet, or defend their opinion until the end of time? A Taurus friend has you covered.

And to be honest, Taurus people invented self-care before it was popular—indulgence at its finest, you could say. They understand the assignment when it comes to taking care of themselves, and they don’t apologize for it. In a world that glorifies hustle, Taurus says, “Nah, I’ll hustle after this long nap.”

So whether you’re living with a Taurus, dating one, or are one, embrace the vibes. They’ll frustrate you with their resistance to change, but charm you with their loyalty. They’ll drive you crazy with their need for routine, but melt your heart with their unexpected thoughtfulness.

Just remember: don’t rush them, don’t touch their snacks, and whatever you do, never—ever—cancel plans at the last minute. They will remember.
