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. Having your Moon in Taurus gives you great powers of concentration. You live your life the way you tackle a job: systematically and getting it done right. Whereas others complicate their lives, with your Moon in Taurus, when you’re confronted with a problem you look for the most effective way to deal with it, and even if it’s personally painful for you, you get it handled.

The sign of 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 your 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 can’t change a Moon-Arien’s mind either, but the difference here is that Aries Moon quickly reaches its decision. With your Moon in Taurus 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 blessed 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.

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. Having your Moon in Taurus, 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. With your Moon in Taurus, you enjoy serene surroundings, the pleasures of a luxurious home, and the joys of good dining. Although socially adept, you dislike big parties and large, noisy groups. With your Moon in Taurus, your idea of a wonderful evening is a small, candlelit dinner party at home with four close friends.

In love, individuals with their Moon in Taurus are the one-man/one-woman type, and are happiest in a close, committed union. Sometimes it may seem otherwise (especially if the Sun is in a flirtatious or highly sexed sign), but at heart Moon in Taurus individuals want the comfort of a committed relationship. With a Moon in Taurus, 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 is that a Moon in Taurus individual 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.

The sign position of the Moon describes how we habitually respond to other people and to the circumstances of our lives, as well as how we experience our emotions and seek emotional fulfillment. Its house position corresponds to the area of life in which we operate most unconsciously, according to past patterns and instinctive responses.

Moon in the 3rd House:

The dynamics associated with the Moon in the 3rd House may make your emotions more evident, both to yourself and others. There is a natural tension in the Moon in the 3rd House placement. This is that there tends to be a constant interaction between the interior of your psyche and your external environment. You may find this tension motivating and stimulating. It may lead you to approach your immediate dealings with the world using your emotions to discover and gain information about your world. In this sense, you are able to feel your environment and this intuitive approach to being in your surroundings can be of great benefit.

The intuitive approach to your environment brought on by having your Moon in the 3rd House generally requires a fairly high degree of self-awareness and emotional awareness. Otherwise, you are likely merely to be reactive to your environment. The Moon’s association with family and the 3rd House’s association with siblings and early childhood suggest that you may maintain close family bonds, particularly with brothers and sisters and also with childhood friends.

Insecurities

Having your Moon in the 3rd House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will be afraid to display your real emotions or bring them to a point where they can be shared with others. Doing so would inform you of a deeper dimension to life but, subconsciously, you are afraid of what getting in touch with your deeper emotions might lead to. As a result, you bring to the surface only a superficial emotionality, thus protecting your sensitive core from the harsh realities of the world. With your Moon in the 3rd House, living on the surface and constantly aware only of your external environment, you have lost contact with your deeper emotions and those superficial feelings that pass for emotion become real to you. You may think that you are very emotional and you may even appear so to others but it is all on the surface. You are afraid to get in touch with your deep emotions, lest the reality of what you consider to be your life is revealed.

Focus of Emotional Development

With your Moon in the 3rd House, you are likely to have begun to develop emotionally relatively early in life, stimulated by your interaction with siblings or childhood friends. You are apt to continue to develop emotionally by interacting with your immediate environment and dealing with immediate circumstances. As you mature emotionally, you learn to have a more controlled and considered emotional response, rather than a conditioned, reactive response to people and events in your environment.
