Mars in Taurus

How you act

Your engine is patient and tenacious. You do not start fast, but once you have started you do not stop. You prefer a well-done two-year project to five poorly done two-month ones. Your strength is in endurance: you can do the same task every day for an indefinite time. Mars in taurus is construction, not explosion.

How you desire

You desire with the senses: scent, skin, taste, voice. You like slow sex, repeated, with ritual. The same person over a long time does not bore you: it takes you into deeper layers. You are not attracted to the urgent: you want time. Your sexuality is earthy, pleasurable, unhurried.

How you fight

You fight with silence and stubbornness. You do not yell, you do not blow up: you dig into your position and do not move. When someone pushes you more than they should, a slow fury appears that is hard to stop. Your problem is you can hold grudges for weeks without voicing them, and when they come out, they come out whole.

The shadow of this Mars

You mistake resistance for being right and dig in on positions that no longer make sense. Mars in taurus needs to learn that giving in on time is not surrender, and that sometimes the force that keeps you there is the same that stops you from moving on.
