As Taurus season comes to a close and we welcome more chatty Gemini, there is one more Taurus-centered thing I would like to touch on: Taurus Personal Planets. Personal Planets include The Sun, Moon, and Rising, which I’ve already covered. This also includes Mercury, Venus and Mars. These are the planets that help shape who we are. These planets are closer to the Earth, therefore they change more often and are more unique to each person.
Mercury in Taurus
Deliberate • Unwavering • Resourceful • Careful • Realistic
Famous Mercury in Taurus:
Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Cher, Megan Fox, George Clooney, Johnny Depp, Lenny Kravitz, George Lucas, Bettie Page, Gigi Hadid, Tom Holland, Jack Nicholson, Naomi Campbell, Salvador Dali, Barbra Streisand, Notorious BIG, Morgan Freeman
Mercury in Taurus placements are slow and steady. They take their time to make a decision. They are precise and stubborn with their opinions, but take in all their options for consideration. They can be mistaken for lazy, but they are thinking! They might be slow to start a project, but they follow through with it. They might need a poke along the way though.
These placements have lots of common sense. They rely on their senses to process information. They have a well-developed taste. Their world revolves around the five senses. Smells, noises and mood are all important factors for communication, learning and processing.
They can be slow, but are always deliberate with their communication. They are not scattered or bubbling when they speak, which makes others listen and take them seriously. They often use sarcasm to show their practicality. They can be funny with their blunt presentations.
Most of them have pleasant voices. Their down-to-earth quality shows up in their speech. A slow, baritone is infused with an authoritative tone. They speak slowly, but steady. Their beautiful quality in their voice often makes them good singers. They are touched with the grace and beauty of the planet Venus (Taurus’s ruler).
When it comes to learning, these placements prefer demonstrations. They need basic concepts, but concrete answers. They need real-world uses for what they absorb. They process information better when they can personalize it. Sometimes, they even think about things in the terms of how it is useful to them and assess things that way.
Venus in Taurus
Generous • Patient • Peaceful • Sensual • Strong
Famous Venus in Taurus:
Ariana Grande, Lana Del Rey, Johnny Depp, Princess Diana, Leonardo Da Vinci, Prince, paul McCartney, Jessica Alba, Salvador Dali, Grimes, Matthew Gray Gubler, Alanis Morrissette, Steven Tyler
Venus finds herself at home in Taurus and Libra. Taurus is a generous and pleasure-loving Earth sign that allows Venus to harness and materialize all of her Earthly gifts and bounties. These include affection, attraction, good food and drink, and beautiful artistic treasures.
Those with Venus in Taurus will likely be drawn to creating, accumulating, and enjoying these gifts. They may also have tremendous patience and dedication that can be applied to their various crafts and relationships. They are naturally generous and give freely without expectation of anything in return.
Material comfort and success is important. When it comes to the material world, they value things that are high-quality and classic that never go out of style. They take a lot of care in their appearance in this way too. They enjoy wining and dining. They appreciate a traditional approach to romance. Venus in Taurus placements seek pleasure in all forms. They are very sensual and appreciate intimacy. The build-up to physical passion is enjoyable and they don’t need to rush things. Sexual compatibility is essential in their relationships.
They have a natural romantic magnetism and know how to make people feel special. They are incredibly loyal, but they can be possessive of the people that they love. They won’t have an issue making a scene if their partner is talking with someone else. They also might comment on what their partner wears or their physical appearance. They tend to have trouble letting go of things that are not working.
They tend to be controlling and have self-control, particularly over their emotions. They like their home to be organized. Unfortunately this control can extend to people. They can use their control positively to make plans and organize.
Mars in Taurus
Determined • Supportive • Dependable • Patient • Sensual • Committed
Famous Mars in Taurus:
Charlize Theron, Kiera Knightley, Elizabeth Olsen, Helena Bonham Carter, Henry Cavill, Rooney Mara, Andrew Lincoln, Kristen Wiig, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Madonna
Mars is said to be a detriment or somewhat of a disadvantage in the earthy, slow and steady sign of Taurus. Imagine Mars, the planet of war, combat and drive, tempered and contained in the laid back Venusian world of pleasure and peace. Mars would need to compensate some, potentially giving those with Mars in Taurus a very long fuse, and a preference of avoiding confrontation. These individuals take action, pursue their goals and express their sex drive in a more refined and practical way.
Generally, they are calm and easy going. Mars in Taurus natives can have powerful tempers when provoked. They may be complacent, and at times. It can take a while for them to get motivated. It might not always be a disadvantage, but more of an adaptive way of using drive and anger that is not so immediately raw as it appears in Mars’ home signs of Aries or Scorpio. They are extremely patient. It might take them a long time to tap into their anger, but once roused, stand back! It may all come out in a volcanic blast.
They value strength and stability. They are driven by security and are fond of their personal possessions. They may use their power methodologically, carefully and often in the service of others. They aren’t afraid to work for what they want! Mars in Taurus has an incredible amount of endurance and strength. Once they have their mind set, there is no stopping them. Immovable is a good way to describe them. They are not great at adapting.
They prioritize sensuality as their key form of pleasure, rather than just diving into bed. They take their time in sexual experience and prefer familiarity as opposed to casual sex. They are extremely physical beings. Touch and smell are important to these lovers.
