The years ahead for Taurus
Nature
Rishabam is a fixed earth sign ruled by Venus, and the Moon is exalted here, at its most comfortable. People with the Moon in Rishabam tend to be calm, patient and loyal, with a deep love of beauty, good food, music and the security of things that last.
Their strength is steadiness: once they commit, they stay. The lesson is flexibility, letting go of comfort when growth asks for change, and not mistaking stubbornness for loyalty.
In love
Rishabam loves with devotion and shows it through care: a meal cooked, a promise kept, time given freely. They need trust and calm, and they give the same back many times over.
At work
Rishabam does well in finance, banking, food, design, the arts, agriculture and property, anywhere patience and a sense of value build something solid over time.
The nakshatras of Taurus
Taurus spans 30° of the sky, two and a quarter nakshatras. Your birth star is the nakshatra the Moon was in when you were born.
