Cold Dry. Each sign divides into three faces of ten degrees, ruled in the Chaldean order by Mercury, Moon and Saturn.

What the Moon in Taurus describes

With the Moon in Taurus, you feel safe when things are steady and real. You need a familiar place, a comforting taste, a long hug, the smell of your own bed. Sudden changes and cancelled plans shake you. Routine and a slow evening repair you. A simple meal eaten slowly, a long shower, or sitting beside someone in silence can refill you more than any big event. Your loyalty runs deep, and a kind person from years ago still lives in your memory. But broken trust takes a long time to rebuild. When you ignore your need for grounding, your body notices first. Come back to the body before the mind. Most answers live there.

Frequently asked

What does a Taurus Moon mean?

That the Moon stood in Taurus at your birth, a fixed Earth sign ruled by Venus. The Moon describes emotional nature and what you need to feel settled.

Do I need a birth time for my Moon sign?

Ideally yes. The Moon changes sign every two and a half days, so a birth on a boundary day can fall either side of it.

Is the Moon sign more personal than the Sun sign?

It is more private rather than more important. The Sun is the direction a life takes; the Moon is how it feels from the inside.
