Taurus Sun, Aries Rising: quick start, slow core
Helping a friend move house you arrive first, carry the heaviest boxes and tell everyone where things go. They see someone energetic and a little bossy. But two hours in you want to stop for a proper lunch, and when somebody suggests moving the sofa to another wall you dig in: that was already decided. The start was Aries; what refuses to budge afterwards is Taurus.
People think you are impulsive when you are the most stubborn, steady person around; they expect you to change your mind fast; you never do. It works in your favour in physical work and traditional businesses that need an entrepreneur's face. The advice is to use the initial push only on things you know you will keep for years, and never commit in the heat of the moment to plans you cannot drop.
