. READING .
April "a.
The Taurus individual Is guided
too much by externalities and ap-
pearances. The whole physical ma
ture seems to grow out OF the five
animal senses but when developed
above the sensual appetites they are
most powerful mentally and spirit
ually. making apt writer's and quick
brilliant speakers. In fact, they are
very Jealous in any line they may de-
sire to take up.
Almost all persons born under
Taurus possess some kind Of phys
ical mediumship and are quite apt
TO be found among spiritualists who
deal In phenomonons.
The governing sign OF this date Is
Taurus. the sign OF the Bull, and the
governing planet is Venus.
This is the day TO make and close
business deals, especially those In
the real estate line. There are bar.
gains to be had in this line also.
