THE ASCENDANT IN TAURUS
When the horoscope has Taurus as the ascendant, we find ourselves with resilient people, with a vocation for finishing what they undertake, the latter especially if the Sun or the ruler of the ascendant (Venus) is also found in a fixed sign, they are individuals who need to feel in their immediate environment what offers them security, they may have an advanced spiritual component, but even so they need security in what sustains their material world, Taurus is associated with raw materials, with what forms the foundation of the economic base, and if we find that Venus together with Pluto or Saturn, we can find ourselves with a person with a great need to have their pecuniary needs covered, and on the other hand they may dedicate themselves directly to handling other people's money.
The ascendant in Taurus finds contact with nature favorable, and if the Sun is also in an earth sign, they will surely need it to recharge themselves, it is like returning to the natural environment to which they belong.
Physically and if other aspects of the chart are not strongly present, such as for example a Saturn next to the ascendant or the ruler next to it, we can assure that we are dealing with someone of consistent physique, perhaps with maturity they may tend to be somewhat corpulent, although women with Taurus ascendant tend to be very feminine and sensual in their youth.
Women love stones or jewels, it has already been said that what is related to earth is a way to recharge energies, and working with materials that use hands in contact with natural materials, for example cooking, massages, craftsmanship etc., Although also the handling of money.
Taurus has Scorpio as its descendant, therefore what really complements Taurus are the deepest emotions, both Scorpio and Taurus are fixed signs, and when they have to face any kind of discussion, they are hard and difficult to convince, and don't even mention it if the ruler is also found in a fixed sign.
If Mars, which is the ruler of the descendant, is in good aspect with Venus, we can find ourselves with a person capable of attracting, regardless of sex, others, and surely it will not be necessary for them to present an especially attractive figure, in any case they will know how to assert their magnetism to relate.
Taurus is the first earth sign, (the earth element is what gives sustenance and material and tangible support, which is based on concrete and measurable facts), Taurus ascendant indicates that we inherit from our family and from the cosmos, the need to express ourselves in a pragmatic way, and that the first thing we demand from the world is material support.
Taurus is not like Aries, when Taurus arrives at the same place, Aries will already be preparing a new adventure because they got bored with this one, the ascendant in Taurus is like this, it slowly ponders what it wants to do, but achieves its goals with certainty and establishing itself at each step, Taurus is a fixed sign, and fixed signs become strong in their territory, the way to achieve it is none other than taking advantage of the slightest firmness of purpose of others, using the will to dominate.
"The fixed triplicity absorbs energy, it is durable, of retraction, centripetal, reactive. They tend to show events and actions that are stable and ultimate. When the Sun enters them the nature of the season is firm and fully present."
Taurus ascendant needs for its development a good support of earth energy to manifest fully, a ruler (Venus) in earth and well configured should be sufficient for this.
If for example the ascendant in Taurus has 
Venus in Gemini making a sextile with Mars in Aries, its calm appearance manifests itself in a much more agile way in its achievements, but without letting the reaction be instantaneous.
The planets in the ascendant sector, (house 1) also influence the different ascendants, imprinting according to their nature concrete energies, which manifest in their physical and psychological state, using a simile, the ascendant could be a wall of a concrete color according to the nature of the ascendant, but if it is adorned with pictures, or valuable paintings the vision of that part of the house will be more attractive, the same happens in the case that we see leaks or humidity, and all that does not diminish the importance of the structural form of that part of the house.
