Alright, so someone brought up this whole astrology chart thing to me a while back. Didn’t pay it much mind at first. But then I got curious, you know? Dug around a bit, found out my chart said I’ve got this Libra Rising and Taurus Sun combo. Sounded kinda fancy, didn’t really know what it meant.
Trying to get the Libra Rising bit
So I started looking into just the Libra Rising part. People kept saying stuff online about being charming, wanting fairness, making things look nice. And I thought, yeah, okay, I guess that fits? I do try to keep things smooth with people, hate arguments. Always trying to find the middle ground, make sure everyone feels okay. People usually think I’m pretty agreeable when they first meet me. I like things to look decent, you know, presentable. It felt like that outer layer, the first impression people get.
Then the Taurus Sun part hit
But then there’s the Taurus Sun. And man, that felt different. This part felt more… solid? Like, deep down stubborn. Once I make my mind up about something I like, or something I think is right, good luck trying to move me. It’s all about comfort, stability, the simple good things. Good food, comfy chair, routine. That felt way more like my core, the ‘me’ underneath the polite Libra exterior. It’s like, yeah, I want peace, but I also really want my peace, on my terms, in my comfy space.
Making Sense of Both Together
Putting them together was the tricky part. It felt like a weird contradiction for a while. How can you be this peace-loving diplomat on the outside and a stubborn bull on the inside?
I started noticing it in little everyday things:
- Spending ages trying to pick a restaurant everyone will like (Libra), but secretly just wanting to go to my usual spot (Taurus).
- Wanting my home to look nice and harmonious for guests (Libra), but prioritizing my own physical comfort over perfect aesthetics when I’m alone (Taurus).
- Being super polite and accommodating in a discussion (Libra), until someone pushes a boundary I feel strongly about, then bam, the heels dig in hard (Taurus).
It explained a lot, actually. That feeling of being pulled in two directions sometimes. The need for beauty and harmony clashing with the need for simple, unchanging comfort. The desire to please others running right up against my own unshakeable preferences.
It wasn’t about being fake, I realized. It was more like… having different operating systems for different situations? The Libra Rising is the friendly interface, the part that engages with the world smoothly. The Taurus Sun is the core programming, the fundamental needs and values that drive me.
So, yeah. Been observing this dance for a while now. Seeing how the Libra part tries to smooth things over, make connections, appreciate beauty, while the Taurus part grounds me, makes me value security, and honestly, makes me enjoy the simple pleasures. It’s not always easy, sometimes they definitely clash. But understanding both parts are there, working together (or sometimes against each other!), has kinda helped me make peace with my own quirks. It’s just how I’m apparently wired. Still figuring it out day by day, really. It’s a process, right?
