Nature
The Vrishabha temperament
Vrishabha is a fixed earth sign ruled by Shukra, and it values comfort, beauty and security. People with Vrishabha strong in their chart often have a calming presence and a good ear for music, food or design.
Chandra is exalted in Vrishabha, which gives emotional steadiness. The same steadiness can turn into stubbornness when change is needed.
