Taurus is the 2nd Sign of the Zodiac. Its strongest quality is the ability to further develop something that has already been started. Taurus has stickability. Once a commitment has been made they will see it through to the very end.
Adaptability is not one of Taurus’ strong points, so will very often take longer because of not adjusting to changing conditions along the way. To Taurus, comfort and security are of utmost importance. They will put in untiring effort to develop such circumstances. They will willingly provide this as well for those for whom they care.
Taurus can be rather stubborn, although they never think this is the case. When Taurus does become stubborn it is because they think they are right and there will be no way of convincing them otherwise. Best to give up and leave them to it.
Taurus is quite intuitive. They do not trust situations or people who are too elaborate. Down to earth, simple and straight forward is their motto. Taurus accumulates money and possessions but they are not into making a big deal or being really showy about it. They will often be the people who are quite wealthy but present themselves as rather ordinary.
Taurus is quite creative, as it is ruled by Venus. This creativity can be expressed or enjoyed through music or artistically. Outstanding singers usually have a strong Taurus point in their Horoscope.
Once Taurus has got hold of something they want, they do not let go too readily. Taurus will be found to be solid, reliable, secure, predictable, with a strong sense of caring.
Taurus rules the ears, throat (including tonsils) and neck. People who have any of their personal planets or ascendant in Taurus will have sensitivity or health problems associated with these areas of their body.
If the Sun is in Taurus: Has to realise it might be very easy to get into situations in life but there will be no quick exit. The aim should be to become comfortable through establishing security that will last. A tendency to take over situations other people have began through recognising the potential of long-term stability and steady growth that can be developed. Life can produce situations where Taurus has to learn to stand their ground. Rarely will results be quick but what is more important is that a step back is NOT taken. Patiently wait for a forward step.
If The Moon is in Taurus: Stability and security is a natural expectation and is generally provided. There is no desire to change the things that work so that flexibility is not a strong point in the nature. Absolute resistance is applied to any unwanted change that has to be accepted. Very slow to adjust to change but will eventually get there. Reliable to the end with every intention of fulfilling any promises made. Has no desire to upset the security of others. Will just “know” things at times and no amount of cajoling will alter the opinion. Creative abilities.
If Mercury is in Taurus: learning will be slow, however, once understood, will not be forgotten. Ideas will be definite and will not like changing one’s mind. Will express themselves with directness and care.
If Venus is in Taurus: great care is taken with money and will steadily accumulate material resources in life. Will take their time in making a commitment to a relationship but once done, the intention is for life. Will be attracted to other people with Taurus traits. Will enjoy security and simple pleasures.
If Mars is in Taurus: action is slow, yet deliberate. Once a course of action is put in motion, there is no going back. A slow boiling temper but if it should reach boiling point, it will explode with great gusto.
If the Ascendant is in Taurus: The approach to anything new is extremely slow and cautious edging more towards resistance than acceptance. Presentation of the self is practical and reliable with a desire for others to be comfortable in your presence. Your reactions from feeling awkward can often be mistaken for rudeness.
