Taurus also has the patience required to follow through every stage from the initial plans to construction, something that flighty Gemini would lose patience with.

As well as a certain practical aspect, there’s a lot of vision and artistic ability required, and Taurus loves combining these two things.
They also appreciate being able to improve their clients’ environment and create a home or office that the client will love.

6. ARTIST
Although not possessing as much of an artistic temperament as other signs, Taureans can be drawn to careers in the arts. Music, art and dance allows them to express their creative side.
However, a purely artistic career often doesn’t provide the financial security that Taurus seeks, so they could be better off using their vision in design or presentation.
