Taurus "Bad" Traits: headstrong, close-minded, slow-moving
Stubborn and rigid at times, the Taurus is accurately represented by the bull. Imagine a bull for a moment — powerful, firm, stubborn, unyielding, and unmoving, unless they want to. The Taurus is incredibly driven and reliable and has the ability, power, and perseverance to achieve anything they want. This earth sign is ruled by Venus, the love goddess, and though the Taurus may not seem sexual, like the images conjured around a Scorpio, their sensuality comes in a raw, physical form and energy.
Earth signs all deal with elements of rigidity and wanting things to go their way. Too much earth can leave you feeling stuck if you don't bring in some water, air, and fire to balance that energy. A Taurus would do well to continue honoring the traits that allow them to carve out their own path, no matter how difficult, while also finding balance by seeking ways to be more flexible and let go of the little things.
