Moon in Sign
Taurus (Western) · Taurus (Vedic)
The Moon in Taurus brings a deep craving for comfort, stability, and sensory pleasure. Emotions settle into a calm, steady rhythm and resist being rushed or disrupted.
Why two systems?
Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac aligned with the seasons. Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac aligned with the actual constellations, offset by ~24° due to Earth's axial precession.
