“Ye stars! which are the poetry of heaven! If in your bright leaves we would read the fate Of men and empires,—‘tis to be forgiven, That in our aspirations to be great, Our destinies o’erleap their mortal state, And claim a kindred with you; for ye are A beauty and a mystery, and create In us such love and reverence from afar, That fortune, fame, power, life, have named themselves a star.” -Byron

•Myth of Taurus•
Taurus is a large and prominent constellation in the northern celestial hemisphere's winter sky. Taurus' brightest star is the red giant Aldebaran, known as the Eye of the Bull. Also part of Taurus is the most prominent star cluster visible to the naked eye, the Pleiades also known as the Seven Sisters. Taurus has been known as a constellation even prior to Greek mythology. It is one of the 48 original Ptolemaic Constellations and one of the twelve constellations of the Zodiac.
Zeus and his lust for mortal women is nothing new, he often found cunning ways to lure beauties into his bedchamber to try and seduce them, and so, in Greek mythology we have him doing the same with the Taurus myth. The story begins with a woman called Europa, the enchanting daughter of King Agenor. She loved being by the sea and adorning herself with flowers so naturally this is where Zeus would make his move.
Zeus turned himself into a stunning white bull with golden horns. Naturally, Europa was captivated by the majestic bull that she began to adorn him with flowers. She climbed on his back to bless him with the beauty of flowers and he then fled into the sea towards the island of Crete with Europa on his back. When they reached Crete he seduced her and she bore him three sons, one including Minos, who grew up to be the famous king of Crete, who built the palace at Knossos. He also gave her presents that included a dog that later became the constellation, Canis Major. Zeus later commemorated the bull by placing it among the stars. Europa has since been immortalized as one of the four largest moons circling the planet Jupiter, also known as Zeus by the Romans.
As with many myths associated with the zodiac, this myth has many beautiful stories attached to it. I highly recommend reading them.
