Mercury in Taurus

Your mind is grounded, practical and unhurried — you think slowly but reliably, and you don't throw words to the wind. You need to grasp things concretely, almost to touch them with your hands, before you believe. The strength here is common sense, steadiness of opinion and the ability to carry a thought through into action. The area to grow is not being stubborn and staying open to new ideas, even when they upset the familiar. Your mind is strong where thoroughness, specifics and long, methodical work matter.
