The Charismatic Loved One. (I have to say, this would never have occurred to me to describe the aspect this way...) , The Builder The Loved One, and The Manifester Independent.
The latter one kind of amazes me (yup, that's me, T + Grand Trine). It's kind of funny how many times the word "manifest" comes up in astrological stuff of mine...you'd think I pull rabbits out of my butt on a regular basis here.
"From out of the ether a form is gradually materializing, manifesting
itself. You can see the part that has already manifested and the part,
yet unfinished, that is just coming into manifestation. Where these two
parts meet is like a burning thin laser line of activity, much like a
welding torch burns, spewing forth sparks. Above, is the fully
manifested form; beneath is partly invisible granulation of the form
just coming into view.
Concept
This is a VERY
balanced and powerful StarType, one that is for most purposes quite
independent. This StarType can do it all, should they choose to do so.
They has considerable magnetism and charisma, making them popular and
probably at the center of attention, when in a group. They can express
forth with the best of them and are not shy.
On the other
hand, they have exceptional vision and the ability to put things into
perspective. They can see it all. This translates into practical vision
and the ability to take in a situation at a glance and know just what
to do about it. They get the ‘big picture’.
Perhaps best
of all, these two qualities, that of real visions coupled with a
natural intuitive sense for people and situations, work together
seamlessly. In fact, their mind and ability to grasp abstract concepts
is working in a very precise way with an equal ability to accomplish
and put their plans into action. The precision of this coordination of
mind and hand is very unusual.
With
all this going for them, it should not be surprising to learn that on
the relationship front, this StarType is pretty darned independent.
They can enjoy relationships, but are not dependent on them. This
StarType can simply take them or leave them. It is their call. This is
not to suggest that they are unfriendly or would not make a good
partner, but it does indicate that it may well be on their terms. They
can relate equally well to RED and GREEN StarType patterns. It depends on what role they choose to play.
With the RED StarTypes,
they will find it easier to use their strong mental qualities and take
on the role of the love or caretaker, letting their partner be the
loved one in the relationship. On the other hand, with GREEN StarTypes,
they will be more comfortable taking on the role of the loved one, the
object of affection, allowing their partner administer to and take care
of them.
Again: it is up to them. Or, this StarType may
just prefer, at times, to exist alone, an island unto themselves, not
in particular need of relationships of any kind. In this regard, they
have the capability of being a true independent.

Suggestions
This
StarType ’s relationship orientation was pretty much covered above, but
to sum it up: they may well tend to be a loner, quite happy to just
entertain themselves. No real suffering here, for they are used to
being on their own a lot. In fact, they enjoy it. There is very little
that they do not have in the way of talent. If anything, they might try
to seek out the StarType #3 of the red-bordered cards, since they have
even more embedded feeling than do they. There is something there for
them to learn."
Hmmmmmmmmmm.
On to others:
Solution to the T-square:
A: via harmonious Aspects.
The tension of the 'T' Square can be released or positively
expressed through the planet which makes the closest sextile or trine
to any of the three planets in the 'T' Square. In this example the
emotional tension of the Sun-Mars-Saturn 'T' Square can be released
through the sextile to Jupiter in Cancer.
B. Development of Opposite Characteristics
The tension of the 'T' Square focuses on the planet at the apex, in
this case Venus, and the part of the chart immediately opposite may
also act as a focus for problems. By coping with them the whole
situation can be eased and turned to advantage. In this example Venus
in the eighth house, squared to Uranus and Saturn, suggests business
difficulties. This may bring second house problems - personal financial
ones with an inability to handle money. By learning how to deal with
these issues, the eighth house problems, and the whole 'T' Square, can
be helped.
More on that...
Any planets that trine or sextile the apex planet of the T-square (in
your description, Pluto) would be tools you could fall back on to help
you tap the T-square energy. If you think about it, anything sextile
your Pluto would be trine the opposition point, while anything trine
Pluto would be sextile the opposition point. It is aspects to Pluto in
your T-square, rather than the Moon or Venus, that should be tapped to
assist you.
And yes, the key to a T-square is to learn to integrate the qualities
of the sign opposing the apex planet, so as you surmised, "the solution
would be to develop the characteristics in opposition (taurus in 9th
house)." But it doesn't matter if you have any planets on that half of
the chart or not.
There are a number of tools to help you integrate the 'missing' point.
Until a person does, however, they often find that the missing point
acts like a vortex, trying to pull them in, seemingly out of control. I
know a number of people with Taurus as the empty part of a fixed
T-square who have trouble with a sensory-based habit, such as
overeating, or sexual excess. If you find yourself drawn to some such
habit, it is a clear sign that you are letting the T-square control you
rather than integrting the energies.
So what are these tools?
1. Probably the best one is to find a friend, or mentor, who has
something conjunct your missing Taurus point. This person can teach you
a lot about yourself, and help you to learn what you need to integrate
into your psyche.
2. Keep a journal, and watch whenever planets transit this Taurus
point. Since the Moon is there for a brief while every month, you will
have a brief glimpse monthly of the type of energies you need to tap.
Sun, Mercury and Venus will highlight this yearly, Mars every other
year.
3. Look back over transits of outer planets (Saturn for example was in
Taurus as the old century made way for the 21st Century; Jupiter was
there in 2000 as well) and examine what was going on in your life
during the times these bodies touches this Taurus point in your chart.
Likewise, check the times your progressed Moon has reached that Taurus
point, or will do so if it has not already.
4. Finally, since the Taurus point is in your 9th house, read, read,
read as much as you can on the perspectives of other people, other
cultures, other lands.
