Even with the most peaceful and people-pleasing placements, like a Libra sun, a Taurus rising knows what they want and isn’t going to budge. Taurus rising people have incredible staying power—their dedication and loyalty are unwavering. Taurus is known as a zodiac sign that seeks commitment, but because commitment is so intertwined with their values, sometimes we find that Taurus rising people are slow to commit. Because once they do, they’re committing for life.

Taurus rising seek comfort and stability—they need assurance about what to expect before taking their next step. While many people might assume that Taurus and Taurus rising are practical people—they’re actually feelers.
