Ferruccio Lamborghini’s astrological sign, matching his company’s raging-bull emblem, was Taurus.
Lamborghini was born on April 28, 1916, making Taurus a natural symbol for the tractor manufacturer and sports-car entrepreneur. His interest in bulls was more than a logo designer’s invention: he was fascinated by Spanish bullfighting and visited the ranch of renowned breeder Don Eduardo Miura in Seville in 1962.
That visit helped inspire Lamborghini’s bull-themed identity. The company’s emblem shows a charging bull, while several car names also draw from bullfighting. The Miura honors the famous fighting-bull breeder; Islero was named for the bull that killed matador Manolete; and Jarama refers to a Spanish bullfighting region.
A common mix-up is assuming the emblem was chosen only because bulls suggest speed, strength, or aggression. Those qualities fit, but the personal zodiac connection is the specific reason traditionally associated with Ferruccio’s choice. Not every Lamborghini name follows the pattern: Countach, for example, comes from a Piedmontese expression of astonishment rather than a bull.
