Taurus Sun Sign dates for 2023 (April 20th – May 21)

As an inquisitive parent, it’s important to know that the dates and times of each Sun Sign (Star Sign) can vary slightly from year to year. If your child is born on, or close to these dates, a Birth Chart can accurately decipher their true Sun Sign. The time and  location are also valuable details. For example: The Sun moves into Taurus close to 6:30pm on April 20th, 2023, Sydney, Australia time, and into Gemini close to 8pm on May 21st, 2023. Birth Charts are coloured with vibrational influences and angles that add flavour to your Child’s Sun Sign expression.

It’s also interesting to note that each Sun Sign has its own Symbol, Element and Ruling Planet.

They synergise and flow through your child’s character.

Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac, so let’s begin by delving into the energies and personality traits of the Taurus Sun Child, followed by helpful tips to guide, support and spark their joy.

Taurus Sun Child Symbol: Bull

In astrology, the symbols are representative of the energy and characteristics of each of the twelve signs, which mostly derive from Ancient Greece, Rome, and as far back as Babylonian times. The Taurus Sun Child’s symbol is The Bull. The Bull enjoys relaxing in a serene environment with endurance and resilience in spades.

The Bull is known for; Stoicism, Simplicity, Grazing, Natural Strength, Contentment on the land, and for being gentle unless provoked!

Sometimes the sturdy ‘baby bull’ trips over its own feet to get to where it needs to go, but it surely gets there! Does your Taurus Sun Child’s nature align with the qualities of The Bull?

Taurus Sun Child Element: Earth

Interestingly, Fire, Earth, Air and Water are known as the four elements in astrology. Each element belongs to three of the twelve zodiac signs.

The four elements relate to different aspects of the self and EARTH relates to our “physicality and reality”. It is expressed internally, is responsive, centring and grounding, and can relate to material stability, and being in the here and now.

Taurus shares the element of Earth with Virgo and Capricorn. The three signs possess individual qualities based around the element of Earth, and when grouped together have a common thread of compatibility within the zodiac.

Real, Present, In the moment, Reliable, Stable, and Seeking manifestation through practical means.

A strong connection to the earth provides great healing power for Taurus Sun and Earth Children. We can see our growing Earth children thrive in natural environments with hands-on activities, where sensations are ripe, and tangible projects come to fruition.

Do you see the qualities of the Earth element presenting itself in your Taurus Sun Child?

Taurus Sun Child Ruling Planet: Venus

Over time, each sign has been allocated a Ruling Planet. From an astrological perspective, the zodiac signs and planets in the Solar System were matched up, largely based on their thematic relationship to one another. It’s interesting to note that as you foster your Taurus Sun Child’s luminosity, Venus brings her influence.

Creative Gifts and Talents, Aesthetics, Serenity, Luxurious Simplicity, Values, Grace, Security and Sensation, are all Venus words that can add an extra layer of insight to the true essence of your Taurus Sun Child.

When tuning into the dynamic of Venus, and how it may adorn your Taurus Sun Child’s personality, consider these phrases;

Thoughts into practice, material comfort, Love of possessions, An eye for style and quality, Supercharged pleasure of life’s sensual offerings, and a Serious talent for recognising aromas wafting through the air!

Is your Taurus Sun Child quietly affectionate, with a love for, and a curiosity to taste and feel? Have you noticed their mature, epicurean vibes? Or, at the very least, yummy food delightfully ingested like a hug on the inside? Does a still embrace hit “100” on the contentment scale for your Taurus Sun Child? If so, they’re living true to their Sun Signs main objective, by devouring the vibrations of their Ruling Planet, Venus.

 Taurus Sun Child Mum Inspiration

A few extra tricks up your sleeve as you look to the Sun for a Super Mum boost!

Equip: your Taurus Sun Child with a space all their own where they can feel centred, secure and peaceful. A comfy chair to station themselves, or a place to be surrounded by their special things.

Challenge: For their optimum success and growth in the outer world, occasionally challenge your Taurus Sun Child’s capacity to share. Suggest swapping treasures for a day, open them up to donating outgrown possessions to the needy, or simply present a grazing share platter at dinner time. Be sure to make it substantial enough for very hungry tummies and dawdling siblings! A Taurus Sun Child does not appreciate being left wanting, and Mum’s do not appreciate the pantry door being opened multiple times once dinner is done!

Encourage: flexibility and adaptability by giving your Taurus Sun Child a heads up of what’s to come, as they dislike being disturbed, and can resist being pulled out of their comfort zone without notice! A gentle, firm approach is usually the best way to arouse their attention.

Guide: Your Taurus Sun Child may rarely detract from their moral code of what is right and proper. Respectfully guide their moral compass toward the awareness and consideration of other positive alternatives, sometimes. Remember, if you’re able to give them a little nudge, you are their greatest teacher!

Support: Be sure to support and provide a heartened space for your Taurus Sun Child to share with you; their inner thoughts, feelings, or any emotional or physical discomfort. They are stoic by nature and can personally bare more than necessary at times. Just be, for your Taurus Sun Child to appreciate the stillness of the moment to open up.

Observe and Inspire: Observe your Taurus Sun Child’s perseverance, and foster their internal value through goal setting. As your Taurus Sun Child has an innate talent for recognising value and quality, a bank account or the like could be a good idea. Watch as they covet a gem, and steadfastly accumulate their funds. See their personal value thrive through the reality and satisfaction of their “goal” reaching their hot little hands!

Stimulate: See your Taurus Sun Child in their element. Stimulate their senses, and witness the abundance of their gentle soul. Make mud pies with them, Run together barefoot in the wind, Dance in the rain, Relax on a patch of soft green grass, Bake Bread, or just hit the brakes for a cuddle and a movie. Simplicity and being in the moment is key to their luminosity.
