Taurus

Taurus personality traits run the gambit from serious to indulgent Read on to find our more about this complex zodiac sign

Taurus natives born between April 20th and May 20th have earth as their element combined with a fixed quality the other qualities are cardinal and mutable This gives us a good read on the basic Taurus personality traits

Taureans offer a fixed outlook on life On the positive side this translates into a dogged determination to see their goals through to the end and an inherent need to stick to their guns

The negative side however is that this can be their downfall Change does not come easy to Taurus When their plans are disrupted they do not find it easy to change course Only after great deliberation much of it silent and internal do they finally decide to tweak their plans

Key Taurus Personality Traits

Here are some key Taurus personality traits that warrant discussion

Money

We cant discuss Taurean characteristics without discussing money Taurus rules the second house of the zodiac and as such the following factors are key components to their personality

Earning and spending money

Personal values

Dividing material resources and assets

Evaluating the attitude towards money

These are all second house and Taurean concerns Taurus natives sometimes get a bad rap for their attitude towards money since many view them as obsessed by it The truth is however that they are not obsessed by it Instead they understand that they need money in order to achieve their dearly held goals

Beauty

Ruling planet Venus bestows beauty and the thorough enjoyment of all five senses upon Taurus The ascetics of life are not lost on this sign and many of the things they do in life are guided by the principle of beauty

Because of this Taurus is a highly sensual sign one that values the decadence of a doublelayered chocolate cake revels in the fragrance of expensive colognes and perfumes and delights in the feel of cashmere lined gloves If it feels good against the skin goes down smoothly past the lips and pleasantly pleases the palette Taurus will love it

This love of beauty can also be Tauruss downfall One particular Taurus personality trait it that of overindulgence Feeling sick to the stomach or carrying around an extra five pounds is not unheard for Taurus As such Taurus needs to learn and practice moderation in all things

Stability

Safety stability and security are extremely important to Taurus Whereas the key phrase I am relates to firstborn Aries the key Taurus phrase is I have Taurus wants to know that the mortgage is paid the coffers are full and that theres plenty of food to go around the dining room table If these conditions arent met then its very likely youll see Tauruss anger And since Taurus whose zodiac symbol is the bull charges its best to get out of the way

Love

Venus is Tauruss natal ruler therefore love is a big part of the Taurus personality It can also be a rather tricky subject for them Here are Tauruss sticking points and how to navigate them successfully

Jealously Jealousy can be a severe problem for Taurus Whether a man or a woman Taurus evaluates everything by the principle I have This can include their romantic partners Prepare in advance for this by remembering that your partner is only human and needs to be treated with dignity and respect

Waiting Few in the zodiac play the waiting game longer or better than Taurus Unfortunately as many a Taurus has painfully learned this doesnt always work out in their favor Combat this by taking baby steps towards action Ask for that phone number send the email just do something

Stubbornness Once you do get the man or woman of your dreams dont sabotage it with your legendary stubbornness Learn the art of compromise and ask questions it will go a long way towards keeping your relationship happy

For Inspiration

For some inspiration here are a few famous and successful Taureans we can all admire

Scorpio

Scorpio traits are legendary in the world of astrology Here well explore these traits and try to shed a little bit of light on the Scorpio personality

In order to understand Scorpio you need to understand Pluto Its demotion from planet to dwarf notwithstanding Pluto is one small powerful force

It takes Pluto 246 years to make one revolution around the sun and it is for this reason that Pluto along with Neptune and Uranus is considered to be a generational planet one of deep and profound generational transformation What this means is that roughly every generation or so the world gets a monumental shift in thinking and in conducting its general affairs Couple this with Plutos reportedly icy frozen surface and we begin to see the first noticeable Scorpio traits

Pluto often lends Scorpio a small stature an excellent frozen poker face and a grim determination thats built to go the distance Lets delve deeper into this intriguing zodiac sign

That Poker Face

Lets pick up where we left off with Pluto Remember Plutos icy exterior Well in Scorpio that icy glaze is perfected No single other zodiac sign has a better poker face than an individual with a heavy influence of Scorpio signs in their charts

This is partly due to the fact that Scorpios almost never sweat when it comes to crunch time They also dont blink We know it sounds crazy but its true To get an accurate impression of this think of some reptiles like an alligator or a lizard All of these animals fall under Scorpios domain and we dont know about you but weve never seen an alligator sweat

Intuitive

They say that the eyes are the windows to the soul and when you look at a Scorpios eyes you may be tempted to believe thats true In Cancer the eyes are deep and soulful In Pisces theyre large and compassionate In Scorpio they are deep mysterious and mesmerizing These eyes work in tandem with Scorpios penchant for mystery and the unexplained

Intuitive and thought provoking the piercing hypnotic gaze of Scorpio seems to just know things that others dont seem to pick up A great Scorpio gift is the ability to tune into the feel of the atmosphere and then in an almost magical way predict what will happen next

Determined

Watch a Scorpio run at the gym and youll see another key trait determination Scorpios appear oblivious to others as they go about their business This is because Scorpios are never in competition with others not for money not for beauty and certainly not for physical perfection No Scorpios determined nature is made all that more intense because they are in competition with themselves

Some less desirable Scorpio traits can include their fanatical suspicious and almost obsessive nature

Fanaticism

Fanaticism is an unpleasant word but its one that is often associated with Scorpio A Scorpio can become a fanatic over just about anything including politics religion and sports all of it is fair game to a Scorpio

Suspiciousness

Scorpios suspicious nature is the stuff of legend Trust does not come easy to Scorpios and unfortunately even when they are in love they still feel the need to put their loved ones through a series of tests These tests as strange as they may seem are designed to test their partners level of faithfulness and loyalty

Obsessive

You cant deny it Scorpio you can be pretty obsessive when it comes to relationships and thats all relationships This all goes back to trust for you Believe and trust in your partner friends and family and learn to let this aspect of your personality go

Inspiration

Finally if you are a Scorpio or know one and are searching for whatever it is that makes you unique then consider this One of your very best traits is your ability and aptitude for transformation Not only can you radically transform your own life but you can also deeply and profoundly change the lives of others Remember what transformation is Its a process that completely changes the animal nature of the thing but does it in such a way that its very essence remains Transformation is your special gift

Leo Traits

In general there are some typical Leo traits that can drive and influence the Leo personality Read on for a comprehensive list of those traits. Leos love the spotlight Leos love attention Leos are born to be drama kings and queens These are the typical assertions made about the Leo personality However just like you we recognize that Leos and the rest of the zodiac signs have multidimensional personalities Lets expose that multidimensional aspect by taking a closer look at some of those Leo traits

Lovable Leo Traits

First the upside to the Leo personality

Shine On

Theres a good reason why Leos love and crave the spotlight Its because their ruler the sun is the center of our universe Think about it All of the planets from closest planet Mercury to debatable Pluto revolve around the sun From this perspective its easy to see why a typical Leo trait is to crave the warmth of the limelight Its literally secondnature to you Others may see it has hogging the limelight but you know you deserve nothing less

Creativity

One of the lesser known Leo traits is the drive they feel to create whether its acting in a play writing a novel or something else This is in large part due to the suns domain over creativity

Loyalty

Few save for perhaps Cancer and Scorpio are as loyal as a Leo and this is one of the most admirable Leo traits Think of Leos symbol the lion The lion king of the jungle rules his pride but he also defends it Leos bring this same sense of duty and loyalty to their friends and family

Not So Lovable Traits

There are however some undesirable Keo traits that are associated with this sun sign

Arrogance

Its not one of the prettier Leo traits but fairly or unfairly its one thats often associated with the lion Remember the analogy of the sun being the center of our universe Well Leos can sometimes take that a bit too far and a bit to literally for their own universe of family and friends Leos are so bighearted however that many within their inner circle tend to overlook this less desirable quality

Image Oriented

Leos like the best of everything The best cars the best wines and the best restaurants this is the Leo personality That being said they can sometimes get a little carried away with this concept of the best and forget that its not things that make up a personality but character If you find this happening to you stop and remember that its ones own true character that makes one great

More Attention Please

Its that spotlight thing again Leo and often it comes with a shadow side While its true that you love being the center of attention once you see that youre beginning to ignore your friends and families problems in favor of your own personal dramas try to pull back a little One of your best qualities is your generous nature blend that side with your listening abilities and youll be sitting pretty

Leo in Love

We cant discuss Leo traits without talking about Leos love affair with love for when a Leo is in love thats when their best qualities really shine

When a Leo loves you youll be showered with expensive gifts jetted off to the hottest nightspots and revel in the romance of champagne and flowers If your idea of romance is the stuff of romantic movies a Leo can make that dream come true Here are some tips to help keep your Leo happy

Pisces

There is a persistent rumor among astrologers that you can always spot a Pisces by their crossed legs even if theyre standing Like many cliches this one has a grain of truth in it Perhaps this is because Pisces symbol two fish tied by an invisible cord as they swim in opposite directions is being expressed This may account for some of the duality seen within the Pisces personality as well Intuitive spiritual and always there with a kind smile these are the Pisces characteristics we know and love best Not only are compassionate Pisces great friends but because of their strong musical and artistic talents they make for some fantastic dinner companions Moreover like the symbolic dual fish Pisces is very adept at feeling the under currents in the air and then acting appropriately

Its those very same undercurrents Pisces that can be your undoing Pisces can sometimes swim in deep murky waters a trait that they often internalize Its rare to see a Pisces complain they usually hold their conflict in until it overtakes them And while its very true that Pisces can count kindness as one of their greatest assets when the going gets rough their desire to escape becomes prevalent

Neptune your guardian ruler rules all forms of escapism sleeping pills narcotics and alcohol all fall under this planets domain Steer clear of the pull of escapism while embracing your inner truths and youll be quite successful in life

Now lets look at some long term trends for you Pisces Note that many of these trends will be with you in the coming years

We always turn to the position of Jupiter to see where youll have the most luck during a current cycle Jupiters job is to show you all the possibilities available to you and it accomplishes this by expanding the house its in For example when Jupiter is housed in your eleventh house of hopes wishes and dreams you can expect a dearly held and cherished dream to come true Regardless of the house Jupiter is known for leaving its biggest gift at the end of a cycle so plan accordingly

Position of Saturn

Saturn the planet of karma teaches us where we need to learn our greatest lessons so it makes good astrological sense that it follows Jupiter through our charts While Jupiter expands our horizons Saturn asks us to pull back

Saturnine structures are built to last so no matter how difficult it may seem and it is difficult know that by the time Saturn is done with a particular section of your chart usually about two years whatever remains and whatever new plans youve put into place are have a solid foundation Also take comfort in knowing that Saturn especially if youve learned your karmic lessons well also leaves a gift for you See theres a silver lining to every cloud

Best Romantic Matches

When it comes to matters of the heart Pisces gets along best with

Water Signs These includes fellow Pisces Cancers and Scorpios These are good matches for you because theyll be able to match your emotional intensity and appreciate your dreamy outlook on life

Earth Signs Capricorn Taurus and Virgo are all signs youll be compatible with Earth signs tend to be emotionally stable and live highly structured lives something you may secretly desire

Fire and Air Signs Although your Pisces characteristics allow you to get along with almost all of the signs of the zodiac at least on a friendship level it really is best not to link up romantically with the fire signs Leo Aries Sagittarius or the air signs Libra Aquarius and Gemini These signs are a bit too flirtatious and socially available to make Pisces truly comfortable
