Take Exam (Pay Later)Taurus (Vrishabha): The Vault
The Essence
If Aries is the invasion, Taurus is the occupation. It is the refusal to be moved. Ruled by Venus, Taurus understands a truth that the other signs miss: Matter is the only reality that lasts. It is the psychological fortress built of sensory pleasure, accumulated wealth, and stubborn silence. It does not argue; it simply outwaits you.

The Banker, The Chef, The Singer, The Landlord, and The Perfumer. Anyone who turns the intangible into the tangible.
