Sun in Taurus
You are sensible, loyal, materialistic and possessive. You have strong values and nothing can change your mind. The word stubborn doesn’t begin to describe your attitude once you set your mind to something. Nobody can make you do anything, unless you want to. You like to think of it as being patient, and you are, but you are the most stubborn sign in the zodiac. Actually you tend to take a perverse pleasure in being stubborn and thwarting others. You are not flighty and it takes some time to gain your interest in things, but once you are, you are devoted. This can extend to ideas, people and material possessions. This can lead you to be very possessive, jealous and selfish of what you are devoted to. You love your luxuries. You take great sensual pleasure in most of your undertakings. Although your not the type to sweep anyone off their feet, you have a definite romantic side- more of a wine and dine and seduction-after-dinner style. You probably have never experienced love at first sight, but once you love, it is a deep and steady love and usually lasts forever. You make a fantastic loyal and steady friend, lover, parent or whatever you put your mind to. You are slow to anger, taking most things in stride, but once you do get mad- watch out world. The home is very important to you because it offers you stability- a place where you know just everything and how it will be. You don’t like to change and sudden thing tend to upset you. You like what is comfortable and familiar. Security is important to you and thus so is money. In these matters you are very practical and can save up money with seeming ease. You are generous with loved ones, but when you don’t like someone it is as if they don’t exist at all. To you they don’t because they have no value. You can be judgmental. The lessons of a Taurus is to learn not to make value judgments on others. You tend to see value only in a material way, ignoring the more spiritual aspects of life. Other lessons of a Taurus is to respect other peoples will and to recognize that love is not about possessing another person.
