Time in each sign
How long the Moon stays in Taurus compared with the other signs
Moon’s share of time in each sign, 1990–2050 — Taurus highlighted
The Moon spends 8.35% of 1990–2050 in Taurus, 2nd of the twelve signs. That is almost exactly an even twelfth. Over sixty years the Moon's fast and slow stretches average out, so no sign gets more than a few hundredths of a point extra.

From the NASA JPL DE440 ephemeris; retrograde returns count as one stay. Swiss Ephemeris agrees: all within 7 seconds. Local times: IANA time zones, to the minute.
The Moon governs emotional nature — what you need to feel safe. In Taurus, that function takes on steadiness, comfort and a long attention span — a Fixed Earth expression ruled by Venus.
Essential dignity
How tradition rates the Moon in Taurus
Moon in Taurus against its strongest and weakest signs, classical dignity score
The Moon is exalted in Taurus: +4 in the classical table, a sign where tradition says it works almost as well as at home.
In practice
What it looks like in a person
Security comes through the senses and through routine: a familiar chair, a proper meal, a week that goes more or less as planned. Upset builds slowly and fades slowly, and comfort tends to be physical — a bath, a garden, food cooked properly — rather than talked through. The Moon is traditionally exalted in Taurus, and the calm is often real rather than performed.
From the outside
What other people notice first
Steadiness is what others notice. The person is often the calm one in a crisis, the one who remembers to eat and the one who does not panic, provided the crisis does not involve their home or money.
Moon in Taurus in love
Loyal, affectionate and physical; shows love through presence, touch and reliability. Takes time to trust and then trusts thoroughly. Partners who change plans at the last minute or are careless with money wear this placement down.
At work
Patient and hard to rattle; suits work that rewards consistency, craft and the long accumulation of skill or savings.
Under pressure
When things go badly
Under strain the person digs in. Stubbornness, comfort eating, spending on reassurance and refusing to discuss a change that is clearly coming are the usual patterns.
Commonly overstated
What Moon in Taurus does not mean
It does not mean materialism or laziness. The attachment is to stability, and possessions are simply where stability is easiest to see and hold.
The work
What this placement asks of you
Letting go of arrangements that stopped working some time ago, which is the hardest thing this placement is ever asked to do.
Where it plays out
The house decides that, and the house needs a birth time.
