Welcome all to this next article in the ascendant series. Lets start talking about the second zodiac sign in the belt- Taurus. For people who are remotely interested in astrology will remember the bull symbol associated with Taurus and that exactly what a Taurus ascendant person is.
For people who have the sign of Taurus falling in their ascendant have a very calm and composed aura. They are very different from their preceding ascendant. Some basic characteristics associated with Taurus are calm, loyal, reliable, not easy perturbed, stable and stubborn.
Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus. Venus is all about beauty, luxury, art and everything that soothes the senses. This is exactly what a taurian likes. They are big time admirers of beauty and art. They themselves will always want to be stylish in their dressing and general surroundings. This doesn’t mean they are spendthrifts but will most definitely be classic.
One of the most prominent one would be their fixed personality. Meaning that, when you meet a person with Taurus ascendant they will look like those people who love to do routine work and do not like to have any changes in their life. Since ascendant itself describes how the person appears to the world Taurus as ascendant further signifies this aspect. Having your sun, moon or any other planet in here but not the ascendant will be hugely different. Ascendants are easily those traits that one can guess if they acutely observe a person.
Just as an exercise for your curious mind, try observing a person close to you maybe a friend, co worker or family member. In some days you will get some distinct qualities of them with which you can categorize them into one sign. Its very likely that you will guess their ascendant versus their sun or moon sign.
Coming back to our bull, like their symbol, these people also mind their own business most of the times. If you don’t poke or irritate them they are always calm and happy to be around. Unlike, the aries who get angry fairly quickly and cool down as fast, its hard to get a Taurus fuming. But once agitated they can be really dangerous. So let’s just say keep the muleta away from the bull.
Another major characteristic you can notice about these people is their resistance to change. They love their permanent routine. This may seem to some as stubbornness and inflexibility, but this is the same quality that makes them reliable as well. As I have said earlier as well, No quality is good or bad, the same behavior under different perspective is taken differently.
I guess, now maybe when you come across a Taurus ascendant you will be able to understand them better. The whole purpose of these articles apart from learning astrology is how one can try understanding others a little better and improve interpersonal relations. These are very important in our current time.
So this is all for now, stay tuned for the next ascendant – Gemini and mind you they are poles apart from the Taurians.
