Books for Taurus Season

By Kat La Mantia | April 25 2023 | AdultsGeneralAllGiftBlog

From the ram to the bull, Aries season yields to Taurus from April 20 – May 21. The bull is the perfect symbol for the earthy, grounded, and stubborn Taurus. Practical Tauruses value routine and stability. They love an organized and comforting domestic space and are evangelists for the concept of a strong morning routine. Bullish Taurus has a reputation for being “stubborn,” but truly, a better descriptor is “rooted.” Ruled by Venus, Taurus has a strong and tender heart. When Taurus finds something or someone they love, they form a steadfast attachment and devotion. Taurus is someone you can count on, whether they’re a friend, partner, or coworker. Rely on loyal and hardworking Taurus to take on responsibility and see a project through to the end.

Taurus readers will love books about practical ways to improve their daily lives, from planting a useful kitchen garden to money-making and saving tips to level-headed relationship advice. Our picks for Taurus this month feature celebrities who share the sign, Lizzo and Queen Elizabeth II, books that honor their zodiac element of earth, including Our Kindred Home and Rekha’s Kitchen Garden, and activities for cozy homebodies, including The Landscape of England Jigsaw Puzzle and The Game of Real Life. Check out these and more on our list below!
