Here are global energies of a moon in Taurus or in 2nd House which you must imperatively nuance according to your birth chart, see the article on the Moon in signs; see also the article on the general interpretation of the Moon.
The moon is one of the Anima’s attributes in the chart, as such it can indicate a Projection of this one.
It thus often also informs about the mother, or the native’s wife, manifesting qualities in the colors of the occupied sign.
The Taurus’ concrete…
This moon position is important and powerful, it corresponds to an exaltation of the planet (see Rulerships), its energies are as if increased, exacerbated.
These natives are very sensitive, they give a lot of importance to their feelings. They have a pronounced gentleness and sensitivity. They need to establish a permanent security feeling into themselves and around them.
Homebody, they like to enjoy life, their family and their home, quietly, in all intimacy and simplicity. They cannot conceive their life without a real proximity and complicity with their loved ones, for them family values are predominant in their existence : the children, house, region, village, country… Moreover, from their point of view, life is not conceivable without enjoying the senses and their pleasures, they are very attached to them.
They are often the guardians of tradition and a certain wisdom, and their home is the central pillar, the foundations, they become the central “rock” around which the family is structured and comforts itself, they give off a soothing protective aura of warmth, reliability, stability and security (emotional and material). They have a deep, extremely strong attachment, which will certainly take time to establish, but once established, it will often be indestructible, in good or bad times, they have a loyalty and resistance to the “life abrasion” that is truly impressive.
This Moon in Taurus or 2nd House announces globally Earth values, which carry work, perseverance, tenacity, calm, serenity, prudence, stubbornness, materialism, Cartesianism… They like “concrete” things, solid, what they can touch, what they can create with their own hands. Their inner earth sensitivity can also push them to hide their feelings and fragility, even if they are deep down very sentimental and romantic (you just need to seek for it).
Their biggest flaw is that they are extremely stubborn, you’ll find it hard to make them do things they don’t want to do, or to go back on an opinion, or to break a bond, they lack flexibility.
They have very strong ideas, so a debate won’t be easy with them ! But they firmly keep their commitments once they have made them, and if you manage to convince them of the pragmatic usefulness of your point of view, it will be engraved for a long time in their minds, they generally have a very good memory (see their Mercury in signs too).
The “revolutionary” personalities, too eccentric, enlightened, or too reformist (a bit unstable) will also have difficulty with them, to make them move and change. Their extreme caution and slowness can exasperate more than a few. Also, forget about “surprises” and other last minute changes that would upset their routine, it’s clearly not for them !
Taurus Moon in love : Are you compatible ?
There are 2 main axes among the natives with this moon, the first one is their very sensual aspect, carpe diem, which will need to enjoy life and senses, pleasures, and in a very generous, warm aspect…
The second one is that their affection will seek to express itself in a “safe” frame, they will need to feel a feeling of mutual belonging, to be much reassured by the partner, as well on the emotional level as on the material level besides (in terms of comfort, reliability).
Jealousy and possessiveness will be quite common features of these lunar Taurus / 2nd House energies, which require a rather “exclusive” attention and may fear partners judged too “fickle”, volatile or unstable.
The natives with this moon can be quite reserved on the externalization of their feelings, but their passion can be intense and soft at the same time, and the carnal contact will be very important here : the need to cuddle, to touch, to be touched, to “massage” the other, this will be more easily part of their overall expression mode of love and of their sexuality a lot…
Their soulmate represents a cornerstone for home, family, children, which will thus be an important base of stability and routine, they will be able to found it patiently, will appreciate their household sweetness, to be surrounded by loved ones, but on the other hand will greatly fear any “loss” suffered at this level, and the partner will have to take care to help to secure all this, at the risk of otherwise activating important frustrations.

The squares or oppositions of a Moon in Taurus or 2nd House will therefore tend to press directly on the fears of loss, dispossession or a lack of stability and adaptation, which can activate either parts of passivity, stubbornness, or put in front of certain realities creating resentment, or a lack of confidence (in oneself as in the other).
