The legend of Taurus

Legend has it that Zeus once turned into a bull and courted Princess Europa. After they got married, Zeus raised the image of the bull to the sky and named it Taurus.

The legend of Taurus is also related to Zeus. Europa was a princess of Phoenicia. Her appearance is gorgeous. Every morning, the princess collects flowers and fresh fruits and then plays with her sisters. Zeus fell in love with Princess Europa at first sight, but Hera was a jealous person. He was afraid that his true appearance outside would attract the attention of Tianhou, so he turned into a bull and approached Princess Europa.

Europa likes this bull with light chestnut fur very much. Its horns are bent into a crescent shape and there are silver ring marks on its forehead. The princess climbed onto the bull's back, but the tame bull suddenly flew up and flew to the Aegean Sea. The gods in the sea flocked to the sea and bowed to the bull. The princess guessed that the bull was unusual and begged him not to abandon himself on a desolate island. At this time, the bull informed Europa of his identity and courted her.

Finally, Zeus married Europa in Crete, and they had three children. To commemorate all this, Zeus lifted the image of a bull to the sky and turned it into a Taurus.
