"THE MOON IN TAURUS. ☽ in ♉. This person is quiet and unimpulsive; persistent, determined, and not to be thwarted in his aims. Somewhat hopeful, ambitious, and desirous of excelling. Follows established customs and is conservative by nature, resisting change and outside influences. This lunar position gains friends and favours the acquisition of money, houses, or land. It also favours occupations of the nature of the earthy element; dealing in land, houses, heavy goods, old established businesses; succeeding to the father's business; gain or inheritance from a parent.

The native is somewhat sensuous and materialistic, though sociable and of good disposition"
