My astrology sign is Taurus, which tends to dislike change. We value stability, routine, and comfort, and can be quite resistant to new situations or disruptions.
However, being a Navy dependent, I had to learn to evaluate the need for change and understand that the status quo wasn't always prudent. After time, I learned to appreciate that change can be beneficial albeit chaotic.
Did I like all that relocating while growing up? Absolutely not! But then, one day, I decided that I needed to see things in a different light. That a change in the status quo could be okay. It kept me from being set in my ways, from being stagnant, and from being closed-minded.
However, my deeper core principles didn't seem to waiver. I think it only changed me in the things that needed a bigger perspective. Because, Taurus individuals are generally considered very logical and grounded. We tend to be practical, methodical, and prefer to thoroughly evaluate situations before making decisions.
This is what I've done and what I've come to understand about President Trump. He often challenges the status quo as a core part of his populist political approach, appealing to voters who feel the existing system has failed them. His actions and rhetoric frequently aim to disrupt established norms in domestic and foreign policy, including trade agreements, international alliances, and traditional political processes.
He is answering the call of those who feel a change is desperately needed, for whatever the reasons. He stirs things up and then waits to see how the dust settles or the cards land. Some things may change completely or very little, but there will be a change.
Because, as the ancient Greek philosopher Heraclitus famously stated, "There is nothing permanent except change." And, for the six years that I worked for Disney, every day we were told that change is good, because Walt Disney believed that "progress is impossible without change"
