The Basics
Taureans are generally strong, quiet, deliberate, practical, exacting, determined, persistent, persevering, compassionate and loyal. You like getting your hands on your work, building things, and seeing the tangible, practical results of your effort. Routine work does not bother you as long as the end result is useful and serves some concrete purpose.
Stubborn:
On one hand, your persistence and determination are admirable, but at times, they can tip over into stubbornness. You may find it challenging to let go of ideas or possessions that you feel strongly about. However, this trait also means that you value security and stability, and you resist change if it threatens to disrupt your comfort or routine.
Loyal:
On the other hand, your loyalty is one of your greatest strengths. You are a dependable friend who takes your commitments seriously. You have a strong sense of duty and responsibility, and you are always there to offer support and assistance to those you care about.
Protective:
You have a protective streak, which means you are not afraid to stand up for yourself or those you care about. Although you may come across as slow and steady, you have a hidden reserve of strength and determination that can be formidable when called upon.
Luxuries and Comforts:
It's also worth noting that you have a particularly strong appreciation for the material side of life, and you enjoy surrounding yourself with beautiful things. This is because you don't feel emotionally secure unless you can see and touch the objects you own. This intense need to possess and enjoy with the senses can drive you to be extremely productive or extremely acquisitive. While some may accuse you of being materialistic, you have a practical approach to money and resources, and you are unlikely to fritter away your hard-earned assets. Lesser evolved Taureans can treat people as objects or possessions, thus leading to difficulty in relationships.
Dependable:
Your dependability is another one of your most valuable assets. You are reliable, and your measured and considered approach to decision-making means that you are not easily swayed by emotional appeals or flights of fancy.
As a Taurus Sun, you tend to work at a slower pace compared to others, but you always make sure to finish whatever projects you start. Your reliability, trustworthiness, carefulness, and steadfastness make you a dependable team member. You're more skilled at sustaining projects that have already been initiated rather than starting new ones yourself. Although you can be led, you never respond well to being pushed.
In times of crisis, you are generally cool and collected and have the patience and ability to come up with practical solutions to problems.
