Taurus curse

This topic was created in the Taurus forum by Lizrose on Monday, August 13, 2018 and has 30 replies.
I remember being proud of the strength, kindness, loyalty and stubborness we Taureans possessed and I use to think we were the best zodiac sign.I always felt I was honest in a kind way but I now feel like I'm maybe not as honest as I thought I was. I perphaps hide the more negative aspects of my self like jealousy by smiling and complimenting those that i feel a twinge of jealousy towards. I feel like I have more negative qualities than positive and even my positives seem like they are a detriment at times. eg: Being loyal to those who don't deserve it and being too stubborn to do the things I should. I now feel like the world seems like a different place to me and that I am living in a different reality (a factual one) than everyone else. Has anyone else ever felt this way? If so, what steps did you take to evolve?
I can relate to everything you said....in many ways, life does feel like a fall from grace, or innocence in the sense that I've now done so many things that I've always had these self-righteous judgmental stances on towards others....Even further than what you shared, I thought I was a super loyal dude most of my life, and experience has definitely taught me otherwise....I just try not to be too hard on myself....I'm learning to let go of guilt....I think its important to be remorseful for specific things when they happen, but you can't just walk around feeling disappointed with your self constantly....Most people are dishonest hoors to some extent, in my experience, and if you hang around them long enough, you find that out....

If you accept/forgive the things about your self that you dislike - times you were dishonest, the jealousy, etc., I think the behaviors are actually less likely to occur....The more positive your own self-view is, I think the less envious you will be of others, and the less you have to hide from others through deception for instance...
I recently got a promotion but I feel lacking everywhere else. My home life seems a mess even though I know I should be proud. Many people have told me I am pretty, nice and I am always there when someone I love needs to talk, but I can't help feeling that I am more on the boring side and needs to connecting with others. I feel like it has left me unable to express emotions and true feelings. It is affecting my relationships with siblings and partner but it is so difficult to change something I have been doing for so many years.

But it's a very Positive quality to identify Negative and be Aware of it ?

What you describe is not a strange thing, and everyone is like that. That's what human psyche is all about.

Every one feels jealous and upset with others, no one is free of any vice.

What you are experiencing is self awareness.

Eloquently said it is positive to be aware of our negative nature

Thanks.

Sometiem we are so bogged down with the stereotypical "positives" that we forget we have gone through a lot to whittle it down to where we are.

I read a lot of threads here and just think, some people here know there flaws so well, then why such unhappiness surrounds them ?

Is being self aware perhaps the reason to be unhappy?

What this journey has thought me is we have a soul self n an ego self the more we are disconnected to our true essence the more we feel as you describe

Go fsearch for your soul again

N what truly makes it happy

Follow heart vs mind you tauryses are so mind centered. Lol

I say u feel the need to connect follow that
I know someone with Taurus opposite Scoprio, never met someone that self aware and yet so in sync with other people's energy - always brings out the best in me whatever the circumstances
How do I reply to you guys postings? I can see what you all are saying. it's just that I felt like I was such a good person and now it feels like I have nothing else to offer the people i love. If i'm not a decent human being then who am I really? What is it that sets me out from the rest? Is everything about me phony? I really don't value material things as much as i've realizerd they have never made me happy. Clothes and jewelry gave me an adrenaline rush and I recently had my first relationship at 30 because I always felt that I would not be able to "keep" a man because I overcompensate in relationships and only become stubborn and move on when I have had enough. I took the promotion at work because I wanted more money and more importantly to push myself out of my comfoprt zone and routine work I was doing before even though I don't necessary like it.

I find no one is happy all the time

Anyone who says the are always is a liar

We are all just riding waves of

Moments of joy, periods of sadness

maybe peacefulness

Emotions are state of mind. Nothing is permanent.
I met my boyfriend (a Scorpio), I feel like he has pushed me to take a hard look at myself without the excuses I usually tell myself to feel better. He has been the best and the worst thing to happen to me. I felt like I was focused and had everything going for me and I'm not in that place. I do know I have potential but my stubborness is refusing to give in to growth. It sees it as "changing" . I have always felt I have "control" of my emotions and a lot of patience perphaps it's just what I do to avoid conflict. I am very protective of my loved ones and often end in fights because people are trying to attack my family but don't do it for myself. I feel like I can take a lot of stress and push somethings away when it comes to defending myself. In my relationship I find myself opening and closing often like a switch. When we are connected we are connected and when we are not I can tell he gets frustrated. During the times I'm closed it's because I'm in my head and when I'm open everyone looks at me like in shocked. I guess I'm close off because when I do speak my mind I am extremely blunt and being the sensitive person I am I want to be as kind with my honesty so that I could be treated the same. When I confide in my sister that I've always been close to some of my thoughts she tells me she's shocked she thought I was a saint and now she feels like she doesn't know me.I guess my thing is how can I push pass everyone and my stubborness and be the person I was meant to be?

Mmm what ur sister said doesn’t seem supportive at all. It’s like shaming you for who you are

Is there sisterly rivalry

Id never respond like that to my sister

I guess don’t take others words about you to heart people can have their own agendas

It seems right now it’s the time to really get to know who you are n be proud

Wether your sister bf or freinds say they are shocked

Plus shock might me a good thing . 😉

Actually we used to be similiar in personality and character. She recently started her own journey and expresses herselt a lot more and now attracts a lot of people to her. I have told her how I felt when she judged me I even did the same back to her and she didn't like it. I explained how she made me feel and she did feel guilty though. My sister is sweet, beautiful, sexy, and friendly and a great cook. She has no need to be jealous of me. I am trying my best. Thank you for the advice! You all are very sweet people to talk to a stranger in need.

This whole thing just sounds like you need to be more selfish. Seriously. Dont worry about what people think of you because the truth is theyll rarely think of you.

Thank you
Yes I use to feel the same as everyone but sometimes you wake up to reality feeling like a midget in a bath robe.

I too had my first relationship in my mid thirties. I guess it was fun while it lasted.

The lesson I learned was that I could buy material things but one thing you can’t buy is real love

The best zodiac sign?

Please. Bulls don't compromise. They don't bend. They're never wrong. They never give when they're wrong because, only people with differing opinions are wrong. And brainwashed. Etc.

Listen, Taurus has a lot of great things going for them. Are they lazy, gluttonous, and indulgent. And lazy? And BORING at times. And lazy? Yes of course. Probably the laziest sign in the zodiac. "I'm home. I'll just drop all this shit right here." Next day, same thing. A week later, their place is thrashed and, oh well. Think Kane when he tore up that room towards the end of Citizen Kane. Yeah, that's Taurus when it can't find the remote cause it disappeared under all the crap they've left lying around (Orson Wells was a Taurus btw.)

But yes, they ARE strong. They are kind. I call them the "lovers" of the zodiac, and not so much in the sexual sense. Being stubborn can help get one far, but it is also a very unattractive trait. The thing is to find a balance. That's part of evolving. So, look at where you're "too loyal" and put those individuals or things at a distance. Think of when you have been too stubborn and promise yourself next time to step back to consider the alternative, and give in a bit. If it doesn't work out, well, we all make mistakes. Good luck.
I glad a Taurus is admiting,to their toxicity.Taurus people are the most difficult people to live with.I once felt cursed for meeting one ,I even asked the "why me" question A Taurus can pretend for years ,they judgemental and always justify their evil ways always!!!! I can't for the Taurus to get out of my life!!!

Thx so much for sharing your taurus experience. Always thankful when the non-toxic non-judgmental folks stop in to tell others who are going through a difficult time of introspection, that their sun sign is irredeemably evil. Reminds me that the world still has some good in it....

While I'm not saying I'm perfect and have never done anything wrong I never said I was evil or did evil things... I said I feel as if I am overcompensating to free myself of the negative aspect of myself but it sometimes feel like I am not being my true self because rarely ever let people see the negative side of me cause I feel it's "wrong". I do things to feel less guilty of the sometimes natural but "bad" thoughts I have. You clearly were waiting for the perfect time to get the negative feelings out on any Taurus because of the one that hurt you. You clearly heard what you wanted to hear and I know how it feels because I too sometimes want to do the same but I know that isn't me to bring someone down that has done nothing to do with me. I could say a lot about all signs we ALL have our opinions but that would be ignorant and narrow minded placing everyone in a box because of an individualo. Anyway I m going to focus on the positive contributions to my post the ones that are actually helping me. That is what is wrong with the world people being judgemental when others are trying to be open and real.

As a bull, I've grown into living in my comfortable zone - surrounded by true friends, doing the things I want to do and keeping the harshness and negative things and people away. It is a reality, yes, and one can't ever completely get away - and when the time is right, there is much one can do to be a part of helping to make it better. But more and more as the years go by, we seek the place where harmony exists and we are free to graze in our peace. Our thoughts and dreams are ours only. There are still good people and things left and it takes some growing, experience, education, and pain - to gain the wisdom to know the difference and understand yourself enough to be able to temper the negativity. Hold onto the "positive" because I believe that is one of the true natures of a Taurus. We are builders of beautiful things which can mean so many different things - even if it's the time to focus on taking care of yourself so that when it is time to shine - your light is true.

Do you have any creative outlets to get some of this weight off you?

Like music, art, writing, working out?

Would likely help you a lot where you're needing help.

No i used to work out so long ago. I usually read, jog, go to restaurants or occassionally a bar but creative outlets no...I would sometimes write my thoughts down when I'm feeling very overwhelmed and that helps. Considering yoga just need to find the energy.

You remind me of my Taurus son. He’s genuine. And so ambitious. Yet he’s also a stubnorn pain in the ass with bit of ocd I relate to.

I’ve never had any Taurus in my life another way. Just my kid. He’s a sweet heart deep down. He writes long letters to friends who wronged him.

I see that young man suffering and it’s hard. He’s so good.

Don’t suffer. Realize you’re a good person and try to stop letting people love you actually do. Totally projecting. Yet I’m still telling you to stop hiding and be so stubborn. Letting yourself go for a little while is not a bad thing.
I know it feels soooo amazing when i do let it go (freeing) but it's hard to hold on too. My mind comes into play again and I start second guessing.Thank you for the comment about your son he must be wonderful to have a sweet mother like you as a person.

That film is so rewatchable, time after time.

Weirdly enough the lines of her character remind me of me lol or more realistically shit I wish I'd said years ago.

it really is....will probably buy it if Netflix ever drops it....both Lawrence and Bradley Cooper are also in American Hustle, and David Russell directed and co-wrote both, and its the same for me with that movie - can watch it again and again....love the dialogue, the humor, etc. And yeah, I agree on her character in Silver Linings as well - a little honesty/vulnerability covers over an abundance of crazy....

it really is....will probably buy it if Netflix ever drops it....both Lawrence and Bradley Cooper are also in American Hustle, and David Russell directed and co-wrote both, and its the same for me with that movie - can watch it again and again....love the dialogue, the humor, etc. And yeah, I agree on her character in Silver Linings as well - a little honesty/vulnerability covers over an abundance of crazy....
I haven't seen American Hustle but if it's the same team then I'm on it.

bruh...do it!! let me know what you think after....I love Christian Bale in that; he plays this inadvertently funny/adorable aging con artist, unlike any role I've seen him in.... theres a scene where he brings home a microwave, calling it a "science oven" and gets into an argument with JLaw over it....whole scene is so great; makes me laugh so hard every time....also got 10 Academy Award noms as well....
i dont know mang, i love being a taurus.
I've felt like that before on an often basis. The only time I would briefly feel that way now would really depend on how my life is going. Usually if life is a bumpy road; more than usual, then the pessimistic side comes out. It's only temporary so I don't worry about it too much. No sign/person is perfect so we have our flaws like anyone else. For me personally; overthinking plays a dark role and may be the culprit but this is when you have to go to battle with it and just try to find your center and peace and defeat it. Also, me having anxiety doesn't help either, but I'm only human.

If it somehow gets the best of me, I'll take a day or two to get myself back to normal and realize we only have one life and it's just not worth stressing to the highest degree about bs. I'll just be thankful for what I have and enjoy another day of life and get back to normal to handle my daily life again.
I cannot be anything other than what I am
I have frequently asked the same questions of myself. In younger years, my car was an extension of myself. So when I no longer had it or any car at one point, I asked myself, "who am I without it?" Or, "who am I without (this person)?" I think is perfectly natural to self evaluate the more self aware you become. Particularly in your 30s, you start wondering where you fit in society, and what you contribute. And thats really all you have to do! Think about who you really want to be, who you see yourself being truly and work towards that! We arent perfect and bettering ourselves is not a bad thing! Often times we get so preoccupied with our selves that we need to step out and become more worldly, learn where we can help others. If you want to feel fulfilled, ponder upon what you really want and need as a person. Set some tangible goals for yourself and as you acheive them, your self image will improve and strengthen. Knowing who you are and what you have to offer as a partner is extremely empowering and will make you more confident in your relationships. Like someone else said, once you love yourself and feel pride in yourself, jealousy will seem sillier and sillier. Think you are boring? Pick up a fun hobby! How do you set yourself apart from the pack? Do what you love and do it to the best of your ability!! You will always succeed when you follow your heart, and keep that level head at the same time. Yoga sounds like it is right up your alley! Do some and let us know how you feel! Best wishes in your transition!
