Moon in Taurus in the Eighth House

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 relación. 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.

Moon in the 8th House:

The Moon in the 8th House is generally a very compatible placement for the Moon, resulting in deep and well-developed emotional psychic energy. The personal nature of the emotions and the nurturing tendency symbolized by the Moon normally fit well in the private and intimate environment symbolized by the 8th House. As a result, having your Moon in the 8th House, your emotional capacity is likely to blossom. You may not display your emotions as readily as others, but they tend to be deeply held and passionate.

With your Moon in the 8th House, it is generally those with whom you are closest that see your emotional side. In fact, you may even deem it somewhat inappropriate to be publicly emotional, reserving your emotional energy for more intimate occasions. Although you may tend to hold back your emotions, if you are provoked, these emotions may rush out, sometimes overwhelming the recipient.

Having your Moon in the 8th House, you are likely to have great capacity for caring about and nurturing those with whom you are close. In return, you may expect reciprocity, particularly in terms of emotional commitment. If your emotional intimacy is not requited, the “thin line between love and hate” may be quickly crossed. With your Moon in the 8th House, you are likely to be particularly affected emotionally during periods of sexual intimacy, major life events, death and largesse.

Inseguridades

As an individual with your Moon in the 8th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will fear the unknown and its power. You will fear becoming absorbed and annihilated by the unknown. Therefore, you protect yourself from it by submitting, unthinkingly, to conditioning and taboo. Despite your defense mechanisms, having your Moon in the 8th House, you are still likely to have an intense emotional reaction when confronted by death, power or sexuality, particularly when these experiences occur outside of the realm permitted by society’s taboos. You may react obsessively or neurotically, you may become emotionally protective and defensive or you may emotionally overcompensate. With your Moon in the 8th House, you may also try to use emotion as a tool or weapon to control and gain power over the situation.

Enfoque del desarrollo emocional

With your Moon in the 8th House, you are likely to develop emotionally through introspection and dealing with intimate situations. You may be driven to seek deep emotional experience in order to grow and develop. Sometimes, you must be careful to preserve your reason instead of throwing yourself blindly into an experience. You may also grow emotionally through experiences involving death, sexuality, power and intimate sharing.
