Those with their Moon in Taurus have some fairly notable characteristics, although the first thing that comes to my mind is; "Wow, this person really likes trinkets." In other words, a person with their Moon in Taurus usually feels that if a person gives them a "trinket" then that person really loves them. It's not secret in the astrological community that Taurus' are the 2nd most materialistic sign of the zodiac with Capricorn's being the first.

The Moon is "exalted" in the sign of Taurus, meaning that it is in its highest and best placement. The Moon naturally rules the sign of Cancer, but it is exalted in the sign of Taurus. These natives are hopeful, desirous of excelling in anything they choose and they are quite ambitious. Those with their Moon in Taurus will not be thwarted from their ambitions or aims.

This Moon position bestows a pleasant, courteous, friendly and approachable disposition, which inclines the native to marriage, Love and friendships. Because Taurus is an earth sign, this makes for a down-to-earth nature that is conservative and will generally resist outside influences or being forced to change.

The Taurus native will dig their hoofs in the ground and hold their position firm. This is where Taurus gets the label of being "stubborn." They are really not stubborn at all, they will just not be forced to change or forced into a position. They take their time and then make up their own mind.

The natives are goodhearted (much like Leo the Lion because Leo rules the heart), so their sympathetic nature is easily touched; therefore, their kind heart can easily be taken for granted. They easily acquire friendships, land and homes. Since these types of acquisitions are easy to attain, then a focus should be made on acquiring more friends, land and homes.

They are attracted to occupations or careers that are connected to the earth and products that are made from the earth. Therefore, they are attracted to the finer things in Life, which means no plastic or lacquer for them. They'd rather have furniture made from the best wood.

Success will be achieved in areas dealing with products made from the earth, chemistry, hygiene or places that are near water.

If they are looking for financial or business assistance, it will usually come easy through those of the opposite sex. These natives are always highly intuitive and have Good judgment. They should definitely trust their own judgment before the judgment of others.
