Taurus Rising Meaning
Taurus rising gives a calm, grounded presence. You come across as steady, warm and composed, with an eye for quality and comfort. People find you reassuring; you approach life at your own unhurried pace.
Your rising sign (ascendant) is the zodiac sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the moment you were born. It changes about every two hours, so it needs an exact birth time.
