Those born on April 29 are natives of Taurus. Earth is the element for these natives, but they are ruled by sensual Venus. Represented by the symbol of the bull, Taurus is known to be headstrong, grounded, loyal, and stubborn. When a Taurus knows what they want, it’s near impossible to change their mind.
To be in a relationship with a Taurus is both frustrating but also highly rewarding. These natives can be obstinate to a fault, but also some of the most loving, nurturing, and committed individuals in the Zodiac. With a Taurus, you can generally find a dependable person who is fiercely devoted to those they love.
The Basics of an April 29 Taurus
Taurus is an astrological Earth sign with a fixed modality. The constellation of Taurus is represented by the image of the bull and can be seen in the latitudes between +90° and -65° flanked by Aries and Gemini. Taurus resides in the Second House, which embodies the thing we accumulate throughout our lives—whether it be financial abundance, memories, or relationships.
Natives of Taurus are known to be steadfast, headstrong, loyal, loving, and sometimes so devoted to stability they can be possessive of their money or loved ones. A Taurus does not generally like change, and they can be the ultimate homebody. These natives like to cultivate a happy home life, even if it means venturing out on their own from their family of origin and growing a satisfying one of their own.
Stones that are beneficial to Taurus are emerald (even in raw, inexpensive form), aventurine, rose quartz, and malachite. Emerald represents balance, fertility or harvest, and steadfastness. Aventurine is the planetary stone for Taurus. Rose quartz embodies love, forgiveness, and honesty. While malachite is grounding and represents the heart chakra.
Venus and the Sign of the Bull
Venus is the celestial ruling body of Taurus and is a significant influence on these natives regarding compassion, devotion, marriage, and money. Venus is representative of all of these qualities, and these traits come through a Taurian personality in several ways.
Taurus is one of the most devoted and loyal signs of the Zodiac. The sign of the bull can be extremely nurturing as a parent and very protective of their family. As a lover, Taurus is often sensual and in it for the long-haul. A Taurus might like to date around when they are young, but many born under this sign want to find long-term love and a relatively young age rather than deal with mind games.
Much of a Taurian’s practicality with finances is thanks to both their Earth element and Venus. Venus dominates financial abundance. These natives like to keep money coming in and save it whenever possible. Stability is frequently a big part of a Taurus’s desires.
Devotion and Determination in a Taurus
Being a fixed Earth sign, Taurus is among the most devoted in the Zodiac. While the sign of the bull can be stubborn, they are determined in ways many other natives are not. Taurus natives take their responsibilities seriously and are highly protective of their loved ones.
Taurus natives may not always have the absolute highest ambitions because of their practical, down-to-Earth nature, but when they set their mind on a goal, they work hard and steadily to achieve it. More ambitious natives of this sign often publicly display a follow through on their commitments that is hard to match.
Loyalty and the Bull
Taurus is also in the top ranks for loyalty among astrological signs. While there are always exceptions, frequently in a relationship with a Taurus, their partners will discover that they are trustworthy and reliable lovers.
The Taurus has a steadfast mentality not only with work but in their relationships. They understand, like anything else in life, that romantic relationships sometimes take hard work and diligence to keep them going.
Taurus can also be quite loyal to their views and opinions. It’s challenging to change the mind of a Taurus. So, if it’s not necessary, changing their mind is an undertaking that is probably best left untouched. These natives are not always the most confrontational, but they will butt heads with some in an unmoving way when someone challenges them.
The Practical, Grounded, and Reliable Taurus
Natives in Taurus are fixed in their Earth modality, which means they are firmly rooted in this element. Taurus embodies all of the typical traits of an Earth astrological sign. These natives are grounded and levelheaded. While they may have impulsive moments, they tend to weigh their decisions thoughtfully and look at the practicality of most life decisions before jumping in.
Some Taurus natives are quite good with managing their finances because of this pragmatic sensibility. Taurus also tends to be exceptional at showing up for their commitments. If you have a Taurus friend or lover, it’s likely they are reliable, and even if they run late, you generally know they will be there when you need them. Taurus has little patience for individuals who do not follow through on their commitments or flake out at the last minute.
Weaknesses in a Taurus
Natives in Taurus can work on improving their flexibility with plans and situations that arise in life. While these individuals often pride themselves on their follow through and trying not to quit, occasionally circumstances will come up where changing courses is the best direction.
Taurus should also learn to be a bit less stubborn and more open-minded about the opinions of others. These natives can tap into their Venus influence. Becoming more compassionate and empathetic to the backgrounds, personal histories, and struggles within those around them will bolster Taurus. It will do these natives well to remember that everyone has reasons for their actions and that they are free to have their own personal opinions.
Ideal Professions for an April 29 Taurus
An April 29 Taurus is well-suited for several careers. Their hard-working and steadfast attitude makes them suitable as a stockbroker, manager, or executive. Taurus natives can excel at being a boss, most notably when they cultivate tactful communication.
These native’s grounded Earth elements can make them a brilliant chef, nutritionist, landscape artist, florist, or winemaker. Ruled by Venus, any profession relating to relationships or beauty is also excellent for a Taurus. This means working as a marriage counselor, designer, beauty blogger, makeup artist, or matchmaker is suitable.
The practical side of Taurus also turns out many brilliant treasurers, accountants, buyers for corporations, and financial analysts. Other fields that require a sense of stability and logic are software engineers, researchers, and lawyers.
An April 29 Taurus and Their Most Compatible Signs
Taurus is most often compatible in love and friendship with the signs of Capricorn, Virgo, and Scorpio. A Taurus with a fellow Taurus can work as long as these two Earth signs bring a healthy amount of compromise, sympathy for one another, and patient communication. This can be a clash of stubborn wills if this partnership does not include some self-awareness in both parties.
Capricorn is the cardinal Earth sign that is also hard-working and practical. Taurus will find several like-minded values in a Capricorn. Taurus natives will also bring a sense of romanticism to Capricorns that can be much needed for this relationship. This match has the dazzling potential for a very long term relationship.
Virgo will share many moral and devoted qualities with Taurus. This mutable Earth sign is honest, ethical, organized, and pragmatic. Virgos can be a bit more nitpicky about tidiness than many Taurus natives, but the committed friendship or love between these two can flourish into a delightful partnership. Virgo and Taurus is generally a trusting and trustworthy bond.
After Earth Comes Water
Scorpio is the Taurus native’s astrological opposite. Scorpio embodies many things reverse from the sign of the bull, but when these to work together, they can balance each other out brilliantly. Taurus must be sensitive to Scorpio’s delicate emotions. Scorpio must learn some self-awareness and responsibility when partnering with a Taurus. When these two can compromise and accomplish this, this has the makings of an ideal relationship.
Cancer is a cardinal water sign that also has some potential in a relationship with Taurus. These two will relate regarding their shared desire to have stability, financial security, and keep a happy home. Cancers can keep their feelings bottled up, but if open communication happens with this relationship, they can work well together.
Pisces is the mutable sign of the water element and is highly emotional and intuitive. Yet Pisces still has some possibility in cultivating a relationship with Taurus. Taurus might find some of Pisces less rational traits hard to grasp, and Pisces can get frustrated with a Taurus native’s inflexibility. However, if these two can compromise and learn in our growth, they will share a mutual desire for an intensely loving and long-term relationship.
Less Compatible Signs and Taurus
Taurus is not known to be as compatible with fire and air signs as they are with Earth and water signs. As with most things, even for Taurus and these signs, there are always exceptions. When a Taurus finds a friendship or relationship with fire or air signs, they can work if there exist compromise and understanding.
Fire Signs
Aries and Taurus can clash in that Aries loves change, adventure, and has an impulsive manner. This can be challenging for a Taurus native’s sense of stability and follow-through. These two are both very passionate signs, though. If they can work through their differences, this can be a heated romance.
Leo and Taurus will likely butt heads often as these are both stubborn astrological signs which tend always to believe they are right. Leo is also fixed in the fire element like Taurus is in Earth. Leo natives are feisty, outgoing, warm, and intensely driven. With a little give-and-take, these two will appreciate each other‘s hard-working attitudes.
Sagittarius and Taurus can be a particularly tricky match. Sagittarius likes to change it up and travel, while Taurus will find this attribute destabilizing. If a Sagittarius is ready to settle down, and a Taurus can be more open-minded, these two can form a loving relationship. Taurus will need to make sure a Sagittarius does not get bored in their relationship.
Air Signs
Libra is a cardinal air sign that can be indecisive but very diplomatic. Taurus may find themselves frustrated with a Libra‘s desire to spend money quickly and surround themselves with luxury. Libra has lofty ideas and may have to overcome the Taurus native’s pragmatic way of thinking. Again, compromise will go a long way in making this duo work.
Aquarius and Taurus are particularly tricky, as Aquarius is the fixed air sign and embodies the typical qualities of this element. Aquarius natives are dreamers, ever-changing, and often erratic. They can also be stubborn much like Taurus. This pair will take a lot of compromise and empathy. Taurus will need to be ready to go with the flow and be flexible, while Aquarius must be more reliable when they are with a Taurus.
Gemini is a more adaptable air sign. Gemini will keep Taurus on their toes a bit with their back-and-forth moods, while Taurus can feel too grounded for the fun-loving Gemini. Geminis who are more practical and stable will pair best with Taurus. A native of Taurus who is capable of swinging from party mode to quiet and thoughtful can match well with a Gemini.
