MOON IN TAURUS

 

A Moon in Taurus modifies your Sun sign in this way:

THE BRIGHT SIDE OF TAURUS MOON: You are more trustworthy, determined, warm, affectionate, artistic.

THE DARK SIDE OF TAURUS MOON: You are more obstinate, possessive, rigid, overcautious, a slave to routine.

 

The Moon is at its best in Taurus (in astrological terminology, the Moon is exalted in this sign). The stable sign of Taurus steadies and strengthens the Moon's otherwise changeable, erratic influence. The Moon in this position gives you great powers of concentration. Taurus also brings out the quiet, reflective qualities of the Moon: you carefully ponder the sense impressions you receive from the world around you before you reach a conclusion. With a Moon in Taurus you do not form opinions quickly and are quite the opposite of impressionable. It takes a while for you to come to a decision-you must be sure of all the facts-but when you do there is no way to make you change your mind. One cant change a Moon-Arian's mind either, but the difference here a that Aries Moon quickly reaches its decision. With a Taurus Moon you take your time assimilating information. Once you have done that, you will purposefully, relentlessly and unchangeably follow your course.
Taurus is the astrological sign of earthly possessions and a Moon in Taurus indicates a person who is resourceful, someone who gathers material things. As a Moon-in-Taurus person, you are also Mused in that you seem to have the least emotional problems of any Moon sign. This may be because Taurus is practical and positive in its outlook, as well as methodical, patient and responsible. Small wonder that history is dotted with the achievements of lunar Taureans. A few among many are William Shakespeare, Karl Marx, and John Milton.
The sign of Taurus is ruled by Venus, planet of romance and the arts, and a Moon in this beauty-loving sign endows you with a keen artistic sense. You are romantic, have elegant manners, and usually display a distinctive style of dressing. The Moon is a sensual influence and in Taurus indicates a great love of creature comforts. You enjoy serene surroundings, the pleasures of a luxurious home, the joys of good dining. Although socially adept, you dislike big parties and large, noisy groups. Your idea of a wonderful evening is a small, candlelit dinner party at house with four close friends.
In love, lunar Taureans are the one-man/one-woman type, and are happiest in a close, committed union. Your security is heightened by sharing your home and pleasures with the person you love and who, in turn, is devoted to you. You look for a true soul mate, and when you find him or her you happily and faithfully settle down.
The other side of the coin it that a Moon-Taurean has a tendency to stay too long in an unhappy love affair or marriage. Because of your need for security and resistance to change, you shut yourself off from new experiences and settle for what you have.
No matter what your Sun sign may be, the Taurus-Moon qualities of patience and determination run through your character. If your Sun is in an earth sign (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), your remarkable endurance is underlined by the stability and persistence of a Taurus Moon; this it an excellent combination to achieve success and material wealth. If you're Sun is in a water sign (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces), a Taurus Moon heightens your personal magnetism, and gives strength and perseverance to your creative imagination. If your Sun is in an air sign (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius), a Taurus Moon gives you firm resolve and inclines your intellectual powers toward practical, moneymaking pursuits. If you're Sun is in a fire sign (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), a Taurus Moon adds to your physical strength, your fiery exuberance, and gives your personality great force and the ability to win popularity with the public.
Whatever your Sun sign, a Taurus Moon gives you endurance, a conservative outlook, and a sensitive, sensual personality that needs love and security.
