"Softness is your superpower right now."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A woman stands with a lion as she calmly closes its mouth. She's serene in a beautiful setting and the infinity sign is above a flower crown on her head. Strength is not the lack of fear, but the ability to act with compassion when you are afraid
A sense of inner strength can be found even in the most dire situations. You are on your own kid, but you have the inner fortitude to handle a situation that might appear stressful. The infinity sign guides you, a small movement infinite times is larger than you can imagine. Don't let fear control you, move forward with decisive action
You are blocked by your own lack of confidence, perhaps you are trying something new that makes you uneasy or perhaps you are being challenged to do something that brings about a deep fear. Pay attention to what scares and why as they can be a clue to where you need to inner strength

Strength for Taurus in Work and Career
The Builder
Sun is a luminary and Taurus runs on Venus, so this card lights something up rather than fixing it. It is asking to be seen before it is solved. Upright, this has turned inward, to the place where the outer tools stop working.
When reading about work through a Taurus lens, the Strength says that you feel like work is where you prove your value stays constant, a place you have learned completely, and something you protect from disruption. This has either led to becoming irreplaceable in a role that stopped teaching you anything, or to moving deliberately into new work and building mastery there from the ground up. You have not asked yourself what you actually want from this work, only what you think you should want from it. The Taurus blind spot in it is the feeling that the ground is shifting under something they thought was permanent.
In practice that can look like a change large enough to reorganise the rest, or the job becoming a different job. Whatever form it takes, it is turning inward, where the usual moves stop working.
