Taurus: I Own
Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac and represents the stage of building on and stabilising what was started in Aries. Taurus is a fixed, earth sign (see my articles on these topics) - this simply means that people who are affected by Taurus energy (eg, Sun, Moon or Ascendant in this sign) will tend to be steadfast, unchanging and ‘earthy’. This is an introverted sign that is slow, deliberate and cautious, very much the opposite of Aries.
