Moon in Taurus

The Moon is exalted in Taurus: feelings are steady, needs are simple and the emotional life is unusually reliable. Comfort is physical — food, touch, a settled home, the same walk every evening. The Taurus Moon takes a long time to get upset and a long time to recover. Security is the deep need, and change is felt as threat before it is felt as anything else. The work is to let go of what is safe but finished.
