Taurus
Steady, stubborn, and usually right. Here is what Taurus means wherever it shows up in a birth chart: as your Sun, your Moon, your Rising, your Venus or your Mars.

Sun in Taurus
You want things that last: good food, real money, people who show up. You’re slow to move and almost impossible to push once you’ve decided.
The Sun is in Taurus from about Apr 20 – May 20. If that is your birthday, this is your Sun sign.
Moon in Taurus
You calm down through your body: food, sleep, touch, routine. When something upsets you, you go still and wait for it to pass.
The Moon changes sign every two to three days, so your Moon sign needs your birth date and, near a change, your birth time.
Taurus rising
You come across as calm and steady, someone people relax around. It takes a lot to rush you, and people notice.
The Rising sign changes every two hours. It needs your exact birth time and place, and it is the part of a chart most people have never seen.
Venus in Taurus
You love slowly and for a long time. Loyalty, touch and showing up matter more to you than big speeches.
Venus is how you love and what you value. It is never more than two signs away from your Sun.
Mars in Taurus
You’re slow to anger and impossible to move once you’re there. Your strength is staying power.
Mars is how you want, how you fight and how you get things done.
