Your Rising Sign Is Taurus

With your Rising Sign (Ascendant) in Taurus, you are patient, enduring, slow-to-change and security-minded. Though not always apparent, there is usually a basic insecurity prompting you to matters of stability, both financial and emotional. Generally you are easy-going and patient, allowing you to quietly endure rigors or conditions that would overwhelm others, but if provoked beyond your limit, you can become 'mad as a bull,' stubborn or unyielding. The need for stability in your environment may lead to the acquisition of property, land and/or possessions, which cumulatively convey a comforting sense of permanence. By extension, there is a need for permanence in personal relationships which can lead to possessiveness. There is a need for, and love of, beautiful things, ranging from expensive artifacts to paintings, sculpture and music. You identify strongly with the earth, compelling you to interests in land, real estate, farming, gardening and precious metals.
