Cosmic Love: Taurus and Emerald
Picture a bull in a pasture. The scene is bucolic, infused with the sights, scents and sounds of mother nature. Keeping that image in mind, it’s not hard to understand why those born under the bullish sign of Taurus are drawn to emeralds, the earthiest and most resplendent of precious gems. Beloved for its Platonic green hue, the emerald is one of the colored stone industry’s “Big Three” gems (along with ruby and sapphire), where beauty, value and rarity converge. For Taureans, whose ruling planet, Venus, governs love, beauty and money, the parallels couldn’t be clearer.
