| Taurus: March 20 - April 20
Taurus Zodiac Amber Cameo Locket depicts a handsome bull radiating strength & determination with one hoof raised, about to take a step further into the star studded heavens. A thin, hinged sterling silver square with gently rounded corners. A rich mahogany shade of amber with glowing cherry undertones & gleaming ivory colored figure. The face is carved in relief "backwards," from the inside out using a traditional cameo technique called intaglio. Handmade, not laser etched, as is sadly becoming more common.
Taurus is an Earth element ruled by the planet Venus, associated with both spring & fertility. The Bull was a sun-god in many ancient cultures. In Heraldry, it is used to denote kingly power. The Bull is equated with the god Thor (God of thunder, war, strength, and fertility of Norse mythology). To the Celts, the Bull represented divine power and strength; to the Druids it was a symbol for the sun & fecundity.
The bull's best physical feature is often a strong, graceful neck & throat area. Taurus enjoys well-earned creature comforts & truly appreciates the finer things in life, like well-made clothes, knowing quality never goes out of style. Trends & fashion are not the most important part of their wardrobe. Taurus is both earthy & sensual, a sign that strives to create tomorrow in advance. Taurus works hard & plays hard.
