Taurus Appearence & Taurus Traits

Taurus Lagna is symbolised by a bull, grazing pasture, and a granary. These symbols influence the appearance and nature of individuals born under this Lagna. The native typically has a short stature with a solid, well-built body. They tend to have a wide face, broad eyes, a thick neck, and large nostrils. Their mouth is also wide, and their face has a lustrous quality. They possess broad shoulders, short and thick hands, and often have forehead curls.

A person with Taurus Lagna is strongly influenced by Venus and Moon. Venus governs the Rasi, and Moon is the Mool-trikona and Ucca-ksetra (exaltation) of this Lagna. As a result, the native is artistic, skilled, beautiful, melodic, elegant, and cool. They have a firm, determined, and sometimes stubborn demeanor. This person is practical, dynamic, self-centered, and respected, but may also suffer from coldness, hostility, excessive passion, and a tendency to flatter others.

Key characteristics of this Lagna include bravery, the ability to endure hardships, the pursuit of happiness, a tendency to destroy enemies, and an inclination to accumulate wealth from childhood. The individual typically has a broad and strong forehead, nose, cheeks, and lips, and is dynamic, fortunate, and devoted to their parents. They are charitable, spend on various things, have a short temper, and suffer from phlegmatic and windy humor. The Taurus native may also be fickle-minded, fond of food and drink, and surrounded by a variety of robes and ornaments.

The influence of Moon on the 3rd house gives the Taurus person courage, with this house governing bravery and determination. Lord Sri Krishna , who was born under this Lagna, exemplifies these traits, having defeated demons from a young age. He was known for his courage and strength, but chose to guide Arjuna as a charioteer during the Mahabharata war, demonstrating his wisdom and selflessness.

While this native may achieve success, comfort, and wealth, they may also experience contradictions. Venus influence on the Labh-bhava (house of gains) ensures fulfilment of desires, but they often find happiness and success outside their homeland. The strength of Venus and Moon suggests the native may excel in foreign lands.

The person’s wealth acquisition begins early, with Rahu's influence in the 2nd house supporting savings and material gains from childhood. Taurus natives also tend to have a strong desire for wealth and may achieve success through a favorable 6th house, where Venus position helps them overcome enemies.

Physically, the native often has broad features, such as a strong forehead, nose, cheeks, and lips, reflecting the bull or Nandi symbol. They are dynamic and enterprising, with the 3rd house influence contributing to these qualities. The Taurus native is often liked by others, including friends, colleagues, and relatives, due to their fortunate and endearing nature.

The person is devoted to their parents, with favorable influences from Moon (mother) and Sani (father), which contribute to success with parental support. Charitable by nature, the native is inclined to uplift the poor and oppressed, spending on righteous causes.

However, they tend to be extravagant and may struggle with controlling their expenses. When Sani is weak, uncontrolled spending occurs, though when Sani is strong, they direct their resources toward charitable purposes.

Taurus individuals can be irritable and short-tempered, with anger arising from the 8th house. This can lead to misfortune and a loss of dharma (righteousness). The individual’s tendency to hold grudges and negative emotions can exacerbate the issue, especially when Venus is weak.

The native may also suffer from disorders associated with phlegmatic and windy humor, as Venus and Moon both influence the Lagna. The combined effect can lead to a tendency to experience Kapha and Vāta imbalances when these planets are weak or afflicted.

In terms of family, the Taurus native often has many daughters, as the 5th house (governing children) is influenced by Kanya Ras (Virgo)i, which is associated with girls.

The native may also humiliate their own family members or relatives due to the weakness in the 4th house, which governs the family. When the Sun is weak in the Kundali, the native may treat their relatives harshly, as the 4th house represents family, and the 6th house represents conflict and humiliation.

Religion may not be a stronghold for the Taurus native, as the 9th house (governing religion) is not particularly favorable. Weakness in the 9th house can lead the individual to denounce their religion or adopt others. This can result in conflicts with their beliefs, especially if the Sun and Jupiter are not strong in the chart.

The Taurus native is drawn to the company of women, as Venus governs relationships and sensuality. The influence of Moon and Venus on the Lagna suggests a natural affinity for relationships, courtship, and sensual experiences.

Fickle-mindedness is another trait, influenced by Moon’s fast-changing nature. This causes the native to experience an unsteady, sensitive, and moody mind, reflecting a lack of stability.

Lastly, the Taurus native has a strong connection to food and drinks, as the 2nd house in the Kalapurusa signifies these matters. The individual may be a food connoisseur or enjoy tasting various drinks, as indicated by the influence of Moon (food) and Venus (drinks) on their nature.

Due to the feminine qualities associated with Taurus, the native is often fond of robes and ornaments, with Venus governing robes and Moon, ornaments and gemstones. Their appearance may reflect a strong interest in beauty, fashion, and decoration.

The qualities mentioned above are primary. The Karmic Pattern of any Zodiac in Ascendant is a vast subject which requires finer understanding. Lets say this is the Zodiac Sign, where you will burn your Karma. But let us leave it for some other day.
