Taurus traits
The ascendant gives the purest expression of the decan’s energy since no planets will colour its expression. The ascendant is also the relationship axis, so it influence will play out mostly in how the subject relates to others.
Taurus Rising Decans
0º to 10º Taurus Decan 1 Rising* (Taurus Triplicity)
This is the most raging and ravenous section of Taurus due to some fiery Aries stars residing here. The mouth behaviour that features in this decan also passionate. At the very basic level a superb kisser, when they stop talking that is.. and, I would imagine anything *ahem* oral is well starred. Queen Cassiopeia found here was also punished for ‘mouthing off’. Partners can sometimes act resentful at these folk for being too beautiful or too clever or both. Stubborness is very marked here as is pride. Taurus 1 will need to pick very flexible partners.
10º to 20º Taurus Decan 2 Rising (Virgo Triplicity)
It will be hard for these folk not to play the smothering parent towards their beloved. There may be some inherited ancestral karma. There is the tendency to take on too much of their partner’s burdens and woes. These Taurus types are very sensitive and the biggest softies. Taurus 2 needs to avoid being drained by psychic vampires or there is the danger that they my amplify the more negative attributes of this decan. On the plus side they have huge stamina and will always stick by their partner through thick or thin.
20º to 30º Taurus Decan 3 Rising (Capricorn Triplicity)
The lover will provide an inspiring muse for these most artistic bulls. They want a love that transforms their life, truly madly and deeply just like the film (Sometimes they can fall in love with an actual ghost.) Taurus 3 rising is not afraid to jump into the most unsuitable relationship because they figure that a bit of suffering is good for the soul. For them, it doesn’t feel like true love unless their heart is bleeding all over the kitchen floor. It doesn’t matter how many times these folk are wounded in love affairs, they get up again and again and again.
