Aphrodite was totally independent, and if she wanted a man she had him because she desired him, not because he wanted her. In spite of her promiscuity she remained married to the ugly metal-smith god Hephaestus, who adored her. Here we have a goddess who saw sex as her sole recreation, and yet she kept the security and love of a doting husband. She needed her admirers, but she also needed security. This seems pretty much a Taurus tendency to me; but tending to behave like Aphrodite is more likely if the person has both the Sun and Venus in Taurus.
