Taurus & Love

When it comes to love and relationships, you take commitment seriously. Once you do commit to someone, you’re in it for the long haul, and you expect the same from your partner. The problem for you is getting to that point because you have a hard time opening up emotionally and letting yourself get close to people.

You don’t have any shortage of suitors, and don’t have any problem sampling, but you won’t let it go past the physical with just anyone. Emotional intimacy is something you’ll only venture into with someone who seems worth it and is trustworthy. Trust is important for you, because if they betray you, you won’t be able to move past it. Your dedication is 100%, and you’ll be there for them.

You won’t be lacking in the passion department, and you’ll bring your sensual nature into the mix. Someone who gives you lots of chocolates and can cook will always get your attention, and you need someone who has good taste and prefers the finer things in life.

Because of this, you prefer someone who is at least financially stable, if not wealthy. You love to be showered with gifts, so you need to be careful because you can fall for a shady character just because they make you feel like royalty. Remember your morals and values, and find someone who shares the same morals and values as you. You find it difficult to be with someone who doesn’t share the same beliefs as you, and you tend to date people who come from a similar background to you.

The signs that you’re most compatible with tend to be the signs in the same element as yours, and that’s Virgo and Capricorn. These two signs share your grounded energy and practicality. Virgo will bring some structure to your life, and Capricorn will give you the status that you’d like. Virgo will get you to take things more seriously, and Capricorn will get you on the right track. It’s a good match with either of these signs.

The sign that is opposite yours in the zodiac tends to be the one you have the most sparks with, and for you, that’s Scorpio. You can’t stand their emotional intensity or obsessive behavior, and wish they’d just relax, but you could use some more emotional intensity yourself, and they could learn to relax from you. You’d help one another with your weaknesses, making you stronger.

Taurus & Money & Career

When it comes to money, you can save well when you want to, but when you want something luxurious, you have to have it and will spend. You’re good at saving up for the things that you want, but need to work on having more restraint. You have expensive taste, no matter what your income bracket, and have a hard time enjoying your life if you’re not financially secure because of that. You want to be able to shop whenever you feel like it.

When it comes to your profession, you don’t care much for being the boss, and work well with someone else in charge. You do whatever work you’re given, but you won’t go the extra mile unless you want to get something out of it, and probably look for shortcuts anywhere you can.

You can be a passionate person, so ultimately, you need to do something that you’re passionate about, otherwise you’ll just work because you have to. Since you tend to be drawn to the arts, you could be an artist, musician, gallery owner, music manager, talent scout, or anything dealing with the arts in some way. With your love of food, many of you can be good chefs, bakers, or taste testers. Some other Taurus professions are: farmer, banker, investor, appraiser, singer, surveyor.

Taurus & Health

Taurus rules the neck and throat, so you may find that whenever you get sick, you usually get a sore throat, and have laryngitis often. If you talk too much, your voice just starts to disappear. You get a frog in your throat constantly. You can also have thyroid issues since your thyroid is in your neck, and you can have stiffness in your neck, tension of the muscles, and pain the neck. Since you do love food, your weight can be a problem and issues can stem from that.

Taurus General

Taurus, you are the second sign in the Zodiac, and are a grounded sign. You feel as though you’re one with the Earth, and detect the subtle shifts on the planet. Your connection to the Earth is what keeps your grounded, and make you the most sensual sign in the zodiac.

When your senses are stimulated, you feel alive. You love good music, rich foods, perfume, sunsets, candy, and fuzzy blankets. You’re drawn to the arts, especially music, and even if you don’t have artistic ability, you certainly have an eye for it. Food makes you feel good, and some of you go too far with it, but you just love it so much that it’s hard for you to stop yourself. Whenever you feel bad, it always makes you feel better.

It takes you a long time to make decisions, but once you do, you stick to it. If it’s what you believe in, you can’t be swayed - even if you’re wrong. This makes you stubborn, the astrological bull, and you’ll fight anyone who tries to push you. You like to lay back and relax, lounging poolside, sipping hot cocoa by a roaring fire, or cuddling with a teddy bear.

You’d much rather spend your time relaxing than doing anything else. You’re a hard worker when you want to be, but you rarely go out of your way to work more than you need to.

You don’t need to be busy and prefer a wide-open schedule where you can laze the day, week, or month away. Other people think that you’re lazy, but you just don’t see the point in rushing. Everything will still be there tomorrow, and you want to enjoy the moment while it’s here.

Because of your easy-breezy style, you can be late a lot, especially for things that you don’t really want to do. You do better when you have someone else calling the shots because you don’t care much about being a leader. That’s too much work. If you feel that it’ll be good or helpful for you or someone you care for, you’ll put in the time, but for the most part, all you want to do it relax, and no one does it better than you!

Natal Planets & House Cusps in Taurus:

Natal Moon in Taurus
Having your Moon in Taurus can make you very emotionally stable, and you’re not one to swing from mood to mood quickly, easily, or routinely. You tend to believe in the “happy medium” thing. The downfall can be a lack of intensity when the moment requires it, especially in situations where you need to react quickly. You try to make situations work for you by squeezing as much time as you can to allow yourself to slowly and deliberately go over things. You don’t take anything too lightly, or too seriously. You’re very sensual, and you love to get in touch with your senses, stimulating each one to allow yourself to feel most in tune with yourself and the earth. You probably like nature (even if you aren’t the camping type, perhaps you like awesome views or are an environmentalist). When you don’t feel so great, you may be prone to overindulging in your senses, usually with food, and sometimes sex. If you find yourself swaying one way emotionally, you can get stuck there, so often Taurus Moon natives who suffer from emotional/psychological problems will get stuck in them for much longer periods of time than most (especially if you have other indicators in your chart, like a lot of Virgo or water).

Natal Mercury in Taurus
With your natal Mercury in Taurus, you take a slow, steady approach to matters. When you study something, you take your time, and while others may think you’re too slow, once you absorb information, you don’t forget it. It takes time for you to begin new tasks and projects, but you stick to it once you do, though you can take longer to finish them. You don’t speak up too much, so your words have more weight to them. You’re practical about matters, use your senses to help take in information, and learn best when you see how things work in your own life. You can have good taste, and an eye and ear for artistic talent. You may be good with speaking and writing.

Natal Venus in Taurus
With your natal Venus in Taurus, you’re a stable partner who wants a stable relationship. You don’t care for people who have too much energy and want to go outside of the box. You want someone dependable and loyal. Loyalty is important to you, and at times, this can make you possessive. You take your time with matters of the heart, and need someone who can be patient with you. You’re not a fan of change in your relationships and like things to stay as they are, but you can become too comfortable. You’re highly sensual in love, and need to connect with your partner physically so you can stimulate your senses.

Natal Mars in Taurus
With your natal Mars in Taurus, you take your time with everything, and no one can get you to hurry. You don’t see the point in rushing anything, and feel that everything will happen in its own time. If that’s not fast, that’s fine with you. You can formulate goals and work hard at achieving them, and you’ll stick with them no matter what happens. You don’t give up easily once you’ve decided on what you want. You’re loyal, stable, and crave security in your life, and may buy a lot of nice things to surround yourself with items of value. You can be stubborn once you make up your mind, and there’s no convincing you to change your mind, even if deep down you know that you should. You do things in your own time, and won’t change for anyone.

Natal Jupiter in Taurus
With your natal Jupiter in Taurus, you love stimulating your senses and doing what you find most pleasurable. You may be a glutton at times. If you have good self-esteem and confidence, you can bring good fortune into your life. Make sure that you give as much as you get, and envision your success in order to attain it.

Natal Saturn in Taurus
With your natal Saturn in Taurus, you’re not a fan of change, preferring to keep things as they are. When you do make changes, they’re implemented at a crawl. Over time, you become better at speaking, and people listen to you. You crave security, but you usually don’t need too much. You have to work hard for what you have.

Natal Uranus in Taurus
With your natal Uranus in Taurus, you seem like someone that’s easy to be around, but you actually have a stubborn side to you. The more you stick to your position, the worse it gets for you, so learn to be more flexible. You can make things happen using innovative, original methods.

Natal Neptune in Taurus
With your natal Neptune in Taurus, you can be obsessed with your dreams, unable to focus on anything else, and this allows you to keep going no matter how many problems you encounter along the way. You can be creative and are drawn to beautiful objects and the arts.

Natal Pluto in Taurus
With your natal Pluto in Taurus, you’re a dedicated person who can stick with whatever you set your mind to, no matter how difficult it is. You keep going on your path, slow but steady, and continue to work towards greater wealth and happiness.

1st House in Taurus (Taurus Rising)
You come across as someone who is stable, reliable, and takes their time. You don’t want to be rushed, at least when you’re around others or in public. You need to indulge in your senses, and can seem like a sensual person. You can stick to what you believe in, your decisions, and your ideas, no matter how much other people try to push you. You don’t seem like the kind of person that can be pushed into anything you don’t want. You try to be practical, and people look to you to be the grounding influence when everything seems to be unstable.

2nd House in Taurus
You want a lot of money so you can spend on things of value, that are worth much in your eyes, or that seem luxurious. You can have expensive taste, only wanting the finest things in life, but you tend to stick to spending the money you have rather than how much you wish you had. You can be good at business, and take a practical approach to your finances. Making money can come easily to you. You can make money through something Taurus-related, like using your senses (food, drink, art, music, physical therapy, massage, as an audiologist, optometrist, etc.) or through finance.

3rd House in Taurus
It can take a long time for you to learn something, and it might seem like you don’t care about learning on the surface because of that. When you dedicate yourself to learning something, you’ll stick with it until you’ve got it, no matter how long it takes, and you’ll remember it for the rest of your life. Learning could be easier for you when you involve your senses, and you can take in knowledge using what you see, hear, smell, taste, and touch to help you. Playing soft music while studying or trying to absorb something new could help as well.

4th House in Taurus
You need security with your family and home. You need a home that looks good and is of value. You want to find a place to call home, something that’s large and gives you plenty of space, and where you can connect with nature. You like to give material items to your family, buying them lots of gifts, and splurging on them. You can become more at ease with yourself as you get older, calm down more, and want more peace in your later years.

5th House in Taurus
You have an appreciation for beauty, and prefer hobbies that stimulate your senses. Free time for you can consist of just lounging around and being lazy. In love, you require lots of affection, and want someone to dote on you. You can spoil your children, give them lots of material items, but have a hard time dealing with them if they turn out to be very different from you.

6th House in Taurus
You focus on your work goals and work at them slowly but surely. Everyone else might think you take too long, but you get there eventually, and you do a good job. If you’re not happy with your work, you can be lazy and come up with excuses. You can be prone to problems with your throat or weight. You can work as a teacher with Taurus here, or do work that engages your senses. You can also work in finance.

7th House in Taurus
You want a partner who is loyal, stable, and secure. They can’t bring upheaval into your life in any way. They need to be less intense than you to help you loosen up. You take your time finding someone, and you’ll stay with them no matter what. In a relationship, you crave stability, but can have problems you need to ride out, and you want someone who’s willing to stay through good times and bad.

8th House in Taurus
You’re good with investing and saving, but maybe not with sharing, and prefer to hold on to what you have. You can use your senses to help you transform in your life, and take your time when making important changes. You can take too long to begin though, and may need a swift kick to get you started.

9th House in Taurus
You tend to be a traditional person and don’t break out from what you were raised to believe very often. You stick to what you know, and avoid anything new or different. You like to travel, especially to beautiful places.

10th House in Taurus
You can be controlling with your career, and have a hard time giving up control when you need to. You want to be seen as someone who has status and wealth, no matter how little you may have. You carry yourself with charm and seem sensual. You can take time to make progress in your career or with your goals, and aren’t in any rush. Working in the arts could be best for you. You can also do something Taurus-related that uses your senses, or in finance.

11th House in Taurus
You probably don’t have a lot of friends, but you’re close to the ones you do have, and will keep them in your life for a long time. You take your time trying to achieve your dreams, and your dreams are likely about increasing your sense of security in life.

12th House in Taurus
You crave security in your life far more than you let on, and you come across as less stable than you actually are. When you feel comfortable, you’re sensual, indulgent, and calm, a grounding energy for those around you, and hard-working.
