Ascendant Taurus, you are governed by Venus

"Venusians" are characterized by their sweetness, sensuality, taste for beauty, comfort, well-being... and love! But, these magnificent traits are mixed in with indolence and gluttony, which can lead them to be lazy, even slothful, overindulge in an unhealthy manner, or to be jealous and possessive; they have a deep desire that nothing change, though real life is nothing but permanent change. This Ascendant is a real perk in the game of seduction: it makes you attractive and want to pamper yourself, but also encourages you to go with the flow and avoid confrontation even if it could help you move forward. You will have to beware your tendency to seek comfort and the good life first, but rather force yourself to take the initiative that must be taken to ensure your own personal growth.
