What Do Taurus Look Like?
You can always recognize the bull by his strong, silent attitude. Their stubborn nature always gives away their identity. As silent as people born under the Taurus zodiac sign is, anyone who knows them well enough can tell they are Taurus. They hide no part of their personality from anyone. But on the first look, you won't be able to see all these characteristics in action. If you are good at reading personalities, you might find some help knowing the aura that Taurus project. Because after all, beauty is all about how we feel on seeing something. So, what do Taurus usually look like? How to spot a Taurus?
Let's explore the physical appearance of the Taurus man and woman, their specific traits and features!
Taurus physical traits
Your Zodiac sign doesn't decide what facial features you will have. That's for genetics to dictate. However, the Zodiac sign does influence the effect that those physical features have on others. Or the way that these features appear to the person looking at you. World-renowned Astrologer, Linda Goodman, gives an amazingly accurate description of the Taurus' physical appearance in her book Sun Signs.
Taureans have a strong built. Their built gives some Taurus men a resemblance to their zodiac symbol, the bull. And the women too have an intangible, elusive bovine quality about them. When I say that I don't mean that they are necessarily bulky. But their built is such that you know that they are not to be messed with.
Their entire body will be well proportioned, whether short or tall. Very rarely will a Taurus native grow an awkwardly shaped body! The strength that their skeletal structure gives them always let them have a balanced look.
It is true that large, generous bodies, ranging from muscular to plump to overweight, are always present. But if you have the photo in your head too, you won't remember the skinny ones. You would more easily recognize a Taurus if you notice the way they carry themselves.
A determined Taurus carries himself with folded arms and digs in his heels. Their determination is visible in the almost military-like stiffness that takes over their entire body. They are usually very calm and composed. But they can't sit back and relax when stuff needs to be done. But don't think that they get nervous under pressure.
A Taurus man or woman has no anxiety related to ticks. As Linda Goodman says, “Taurus seldom worries, frets or chews his nails. He can pout and brood when things don't suit his fancy, but he's not the nervous, twitchy type. It's his nature to be stoic, and take things in his stride, and nothing really alters this basic tendency”. A unique Taurus habit relates to the way they ate.
When they eat, they chew slowly and ordinarily have excellent digestions. Their eating habits contribute to a strong constitution. The average bull is superbly healthy, with a strong constitution. It takes a lot to put him on his back, but once he's down, he may recuperate slowly, partially due to his stubborn refusal to obey the doctor.
Taurus facial features
It would not be helpful to set a particular image of what the Taurus looks like in your heads. Like I said earlier, astrology doesn't decide physical features, genetics does. But there are a few similarities among all Taurus men and women.
Their ears are usually small and close to the head. This is not to say that Taureans always have these features. But if you compare them with other members of their family, you will see the distinction.
You may notice a lock of hair (resembling the bull's forelock), or a curl that hangs in the center of their forehead. When they let their hair grow and flow naturally, this lock can be prominently observed. However, most of the time Taurus natives have styled their hair to best accentuate their beauty.
Not all, but many Taureans have curly or wavy hair. It's usually dark, like the eyes and skin. Even the occasional blonde, light-eyed and fair-skinned Taurus people will never suggest the fragility of mind or character.
Taurus woman physical appearance
I have probably alienated a few Taurus females by saying that they have a bulky built. But what I mean is the following:
Taurus women have a posture and built that conveys strength. An inner strength that doesn't manifest itself physically. But a strength of character and resolve.
The look in the Taurus female's eyes will be serene and limpid, yet steady. It is this serenity that makes it so easy to talk to them. They make us feel comfortable enough to open up to them. But it also warns us to not take them lightly.
She will move gracefully, indolently, but with a suggestion of hidden strength. Even her posture conveys that she is not to be messed with. The reason why she hasn't taken you on is not that she can't. It is because she doesn't believe in a needless display of power.
Taurus man physical appearance
A physical feature that stands out in all Taurus males is their rather prominent chin. This is more noticeable in the skinny Taureans, who are a little difficult to find. When the Taurus male gets angry, he sticks out his rather prominent chin, flares his nostrils, pins back his ears and you've had it.
Their neck will often be thick or muscular, the shoulders, chest or back, or all three, broad and strong. All of this comes with the bulky, bull-like frame that they are born with. Taurus men are built to convey strength. The Taurus male conveys it even though their physical appearance.
One thing that the skinny and bulky Taureans have alike are their kind eyes. Their eyes convey calmness and clarity of thought. This instills a belief in the onlooker that their intentions are honest.
What makes Taurus attractive?
Taurus is particularly drawn to the opposite sex. But in his bag of tricks, there is no violent pursuit of any sort of pleasure. He prefers to attract people to him. So, why are Taurus so attractive? What makes a Taurus man charming? What makes a Taurus woman special?
Their shyness also helps them in attracting people to them. There's something about that shy, kind Taurean look that makes you want to explore what's beyond. (✨ Why are Taurus so shy?)
The Taurus man is usually the most gentlemanly guy in the room. The Taurus woman, the most lady-like. Who wouldn't want to date these gentle, well-bred creatures? On the first introduction, they feel like someone out of a Jane Austen novel.
The men and women born under the Taurus Zodiac sign are strikingly attractive. They know how to carry themselves; they know how to dress to impress. It is not easy to ignore a Taurus.
