Born at this point in Taurus season
Born on April 25, this person arrives in the early stretch of Taurus, when the season is still settling into its steady ground. Friends usually notice their patience before anything else. They hold onto routines longer than they need to, slow to trust that change will spare the things they rely on. Over time they learn that steadiness is something chosen again each morning, not simply inherited from the calendar.
