Sun in Taurus

Sun represents who you truly are deep down, your willpower and what gives you energy. In Taurus, it expresses itself with calm, steadiness and a love of what is solid.

In Taurus — a fixed earth sign, ruled by Venus — the Sun enters as a peregrine, outside its dignities, a guest on ground that belongs to the evening star. It is not thereby debilitated; it is merely without its sceptre, dependent on the hospitality of Venus to express itself. The kingly fire softens in the fertile and patient soil of the bull: the brilliance grows firm, unhurried, turned toward what lasts and is possessed. It inclines to a serene authority, one that does not hasten, that rests upon goods and the solid pleasures of the earth, upon the voice that sings and the hand that cultivates. It gives constancy of purpose and a taste for comfort well earned. Vitality seeks here repose and abundance rather than conquest. The danger lies in the stubbornness that roots too deeply, in the slowness that postpones, in the attachment to what one has until it becomes a weight.
