This is a general description of your ascendant according to the Indian Vedic astrology and do not confuse yourself with your western zodiac Sun/Moon sign as they are always different from this Vedic Indian rising sign of Ascendant and description. In this section the description is given according to functional nature of planet in the nativity by their strength, placement, affliction, as per Systems Approach.

People born with Taurus rising ascendant are generally of medium stature. Taurus is a fixed and earthy sign. Therefore, Taurians have great endurance and patience. However, when provoked, they become temperamental and vicious like a bull (the pictorial symbol allotted to this sign is a bull with horns). They are slow and steady, plodding, persevering, patient and persistent in approach. They possess strong will power and seldom act in an impulsive manner. Rather they prefer to wait for the opportunity to come and then take full advantage of it. However, if there are bad influences on the ascendant or Venus, they become lazy, self-indulgent and face obstructions in financial stability & health matters.

The sign Taurus is ruled by Venus and it provides global awareness, pleasures, comforts, travel, and interest in arts music, media, judicial knowledge, financial stability, good health and longevity. They are generally ambitious, cheerful and fond of enjoyment. They are good husbands or wives and their domestic life is generally stable and happy.

They are fond of music, arts, cinema, drama, etc. and enjoy good health but if they fell ill, recovery in their case is slow. They generally excel in the fields related to luxurious articles, cosmetics, scents, jewellery and gems. They can also become agriculturists and actors or actresses or musicians, film producers, owners of theatres etc.

A strong, well placed Mercury blesses with excellent communication skills, inclination towards higher studies, writing abilities, sharp intellect, adequate knowledge, happiness on account of children, gains through speculation etc. However, if Mercury is weak in strength/afflicted by malefic planets, it causes delay in childbirth, disturbances in academic & professional studies, losses through speculation, and weak assessment and analytical powers and emotional setbacks in life from children.

If Jupiter is strong in strength in the Birth Chart / Horoscope of Taurians it blesses the person with long lifespan, blissful and long lasting marital tie, adequate inheritance, unearned wealth, unexpected gains, inclination towards spirituality and trouble free life. However, its weak strength/afflicted by malefic planets, causes difficulties in enjoying marital life, lack or loss of inheritance, short/medium life span, humiliation, indecisiveness, shrewdness, immoral activities, selfishness etc. In addition to this the person may suffer from liver disorder, jaundice, flatulence, problem in genitals, piles and dark circles under eyes.

Saturn is the most benefic planet in the Birth Chart / Horoscope of Taurians.

Rahu is a malefic planet and generates illusions. It does not have a particular house. However, if it is placed in good house and not afflicting any area of the Birth Chart / Horoscope, it promotes good results of that house where it is placed. If Rahu is placed near the midpoint of any house, it deteriorates the significations of all the houses that are under its influence. Simultaneously it gives obstructions, denial, manipulation, indecisiveness, greed, over ambitiousness, addiction, false hopes etc. Apart from this whenever malefic Rahu is in its sign of exaltation and not near the mid point then also it gives good materialistic results.

The malefic planet Ketu also does not have a particular house. Whenever Ketu is placed in good house and not afflicting any area of the Birth Chart / Horoscope, it promotes good results of that house where it is placed. If Ketu is placed near the midpoint of any house, it deteriorates the significations of all the houses, aspected by it. Simultaneously it gives spiritualism, miseries, denial, etc. Besides this whenever malefic Ketu is in its sign of exaltation and not near the mid point it gives good results.
