The Tao of Astrology
Sun in Taurus You walk the path of the tranquil builder as the urge to shine and harness creativity is expressed through the archetype of the nature-lover, musician, dancer, and chef. The shape of your charisma and enduring influence is defined by your ability to harness the seed power of form, utilize the world resourcefully, sustain life abundantly, empower structures loyally, and nurture nature with perseverance. It is through the archetypes of the gardener and provider that you realize your creative potential and core identity, nourishing others through your productivity. The element of earth is your spiritual fuel, motivating you to embrace practical responsibilities. You can recharge your life force through determination, being productive, and sensual pleasure. Smell the flowery essences and enjoy the comforts of life. You are called to be an example of moment-to-moment living and authentic belonging in the world despite its cycles of hardship. After the powerful release of energy experienced in Aries, the preceding sign, Taurus comes to solidify form and structure life. Wholeness emerges in your life when you are able to integrate the opposite sign of Scorpio into your serene character. The comfortable druid who serves nature and life must become a sorcerer of the eternal mystery and the process of rebirth. Then the mysterious unified cycle of life and rebirth is revealed. The spiritual principle of Taurus is Presence, being here now on purpose. You are called to be patient, perseverant, resourceful, fertile, and abundant. Security in the world is very important, but the only lasting security comes from within. Don’t let materialism, greed, and reluctance to change inhibit you from sharing resources with others and developing a deep reverence for nature and life. You are the wise Earth Mother manifest. Can you demonstrate inner peace to those who cross your path? The planet Venus and the asteroid Ceres take on more significance in your chart as they reflect the sensual archetype of Taurus and disposits (governs) any planets in this sign. The more planets you have in Taurus, the more influence Venus and Ceres gain in chart interpretation. Therefore, the chart positions of Venus and Ceres are vital to your creativity, spiritual recharge, and path of self-realization. Give those forces of consciousness special attention, as they will add their unique qualities to the field of your charisma depending on their signs, houses, and aspects. Your highest purpose involves becoming a source of strength, nourishing those who surround you. To do so, you must cultivate faith in the images that reside in your heart. When you become aware of your shadow, you can transmute it into light and earthy power. The shadow of Taurus includes stubbornness, laziness, greed, materialism, and hedonism. With the pleasurable influence of Venus and the fertility of Ceres as your guides you are called to claim what you value and radiate a deep, innate worthiness into life so others can value who they are. This is the essence of self-worth. In the strength of your own sense of belonging in nature others will recognize the preciousness of their lives and the environment.
