Detailed Taurus Symbol

Taurus symbol is traditionally depicted as the fore part of a bull. Actually, it is represented by the horns and head of the bull. It is the Sign of the Builder.

The glyph also outlines the chin and Adam's apple of the human throat (the part of anatomy over which Taurus rules).Symbolically, the glyph is a half-moon forming a cup which rests on the circle of the Sun.

The cup represents material power and wealth derived through the force of will (represented by the circle).

In Vedic Astrology, this glyph is representative of the Divine Spirit with the crescent above being symbolic of the flowering or blossoming of Spirit in its process of materialization.
