Venus in Taurus
Venus represents what you love, what gives you pleasure and the things you value. In Taurus, it expresses itself with calm, steadiness and a love of what is solid.
Venus rules Taurus — a fixed earth sign — and is here in its domicile, in its own house, where pleasure is felt in full: it surrounds itself with comfort, beauty, and luxury, and ever seeks material security and abundance. The mild and fruitful nature of the planet wholly accords with that of the sign, and expresses itself with full ease. Pragmatic and determined, it knows how to multiply resources and prizes the concrete above theory; it loves with loyalty and sensuality, and likes to touch, to have, and to enjoy. The risk — the reverse of possession — is to be ruled by attachment and by spending without limit, until it learns not to bind the heart to things. It is the Venus of serene pleasure and faithful affection: lady of the senses, that makes of beauty and comfort a way of living.
