With a Midheaven in Taurus, you need security and a sense of direction in your career.

Creating Success

Taurus Midheaven individuals achieve success when they openly express their own values. Their career needs to reflect those values, perhaps by building something that furthers what they feel is a worthy principle. Whatever their chosen profession, as the Taurus Midheaven individual implements their values within it, success will follow.

In every area of their life – relationships, career, finances – when the Taurus Midheaven freely reveals themselves and what is important to them, they access the strength and serenity of letting others know where they stand. They can ask the other person what they consider important, if their values match, they have a prospective relationship.

It can be scary at first for the Taurus Midheaven since they are deeply attuned to others’ motivations and needs, and they fear alienating them or losing their support. When they learn to state what is important to them, it becomes easier for them to allow those with differing values to go their own way. Thus, they open the door to those who share similar goals.

The natural byproduct of such openness for the Taurus Midheaven is an empowering feeling of self-esteem, stability, and of being in charge of their own destiny. Happiness enters into every area of life when the Taurus Midheaven individual rises above the need to control others and aligns with those pursuits that give them a sense of self-worth and direction.

Their Achilles Heel

Taurus Midheaven people are deeply perceptive of others’ values and fear losing the safety of this position. By altering their values to harmonize with those around them and keeping their perceptions secret they feel they can manipulate others and remain always in control.

While the Taurus Midheaven individual maintains this position their power cannot be challenged, but it can’t be validated either. This is a childhood survival tool that no longer serves them as an adult.

If they concern themselves only with maintaining and manipulating power over those around them, it begins to weaken their sense of identity. To regain feelings of worthiness, the Taurus Midheaven may try to control others’ perceptions of them, by doing so they further isolate themselves from true intimacy with someone else. People who are originally attracted to them may find “no one home” to relate with intimately. Their habit of self-secrecy hinders both inner stability and their personal identity. Unhappiness results whenever they try to control others’ perceptions.

Fulfillment

For the Taurus Midheaven, happiness enters into every area of life when their attention is released from controlling others, and refocused on growing what they consider of value in the world. When relationships are built on the honest disclosure of their own true values, they attract people who have similar values. Then they can experience the joy of relating to people who are in alignment.

When Taurus Midheaven people surround themselves with people whose values are in alignment with their own, their self-esteem is naturally supported. By acknowledging what they have to contribute, the Taurus Midheaven reveals the penetrating quality of their mind. By affirming their values to others and putting them into practice, they enable deeply transformative processes in others. Happiness is assured for the Taurus Midheaven through feelings of inner stability and self-worth that result from openly disclosing themselves to others – in every area of their life – that which they value.

Their ‘Home Base’

The early childhood environmental conditioning of Taurus Midheaven individuals was in many ways very disturbing and disruptive to their emotions. One or both of their parents may have had a destructive attitude toward the other, or the home environment was filled with power struggles.

The intensity of the Taurus Midheaven’s early environment accustomed them to ‘living on the edge’, and crisis became familiar. As an adult, this can generate a tendency to respond to unstable situations with a feeling of ‘being home.’ Their survival tools included developing the ability to tune in to the needs and values of others in order to maintain their sense of personal power. The Taurus Midheaven considered their ability to deal with a crisis as key to their personal safety.

Taurus Midheaven individuals possess a keen awareness of the psychology of others and even tend to attribute their survival to their ability to navigate power structures around them. Learning that their best security rests in being self-sufficient in establishing results that they personally build, one step at a time.

Good Career Choices

Taurus Midheaven individuals are the happiest in careers where they have a sense of ‘building’ or growing something that will endure over the long haul. The area must be in alignment with their values so that what they are working toward makes them feel positive about themselves. Some of their many talents may include artistic abilities, a gifted voice, and creative involvement in sensual experiences such as cooking, or massage.

Individuals with a Taurus Midheaven are happiest when they have room to move at their own speed, according to their own levels of comfort. The best professions for them call upon their ability to tap into their qualities of loyalty and persistence — they can see things through to the end.

Fields involving money management are well suited to the natural talents of a Taurus Midheaven. When focused on matters involving finance, they are filled with a positive, balanced energy, empowering them to take charge. Other professions well-suited to their natural talents include farming, floral arrangement, massage, or other healing modalities, or artistic venues where their appreciation of beauty comes to the surface.

Contentment comes to the Taurus Midheaven by allowing the world to see them as reliable and stable. By relying on themselves and building what they feel comfortable with, they reach the happiness of a solid sense of personal self-worth.
