Full Moon in Taurus 2026
The Full Moon in Taurus falls on October 26, 2026, at 2 degrees 46 minutes of Taurus, opposite the Sun in Scorpio. It is the first Taurus full moon since Uranus finished with the sign, and the difference is noticeable.
For seven years every Taurus lunation carried Uranus somewhere in it, which meant every one of them came with disruption attached. Uranus moved into Gemini in April 2026. This full moon is what a Taurus full moon feels like without it.
Full Moon in Taurus 2026 Dates and Chart
October 26, 2026: Full Moon at 2 degrees 46 minutes of Taurus, opposite the Sun at 2 degrees 46 minutes of Scorpio.
The chart around it: Mercury retrograde at 20 degrees Scorpio, Venus retrograde at 29 degrees Libra, Mars at 15 degrees Leo, Jupiter at 23 degrees Leo, Saturn retrograde at 9 degrees Aries, Uranus retrograde at 4 degrees Gemini, Neptune retrograde at 2 degrees Aries, and Pluto at 3 degrees Aquarius, newly direct.
Venus Retrograde Under a Taurus Full Moon
Venus rules Taurus, and on the day of this full moon Venus is retrograde at the very end of Libra. It turns direct on November 13. So the sign of steadiness reaches its culmination while the planet governing it is still moving backward.
That combination produces a particular feeling: something comes to a head around money, comfort, the body, or what you value, and the resolution stays just out of reach for another couple of weeks. Taurus wants to settle it. Venus retrograde will not let it settle yet.
The workable version is to let the full moon show you the situation clearly and hold the decision until Venus turns. What is revealed now is accurate. What you conclude now is provisional.
The Taurus and Scorpio Axis
A Taurus full moon always lights the Taurus and Scorpio axis, and that axis is about value from two directions. Taurus holds what is yours: your body, your income, your own sense of enough. Scorpio holds what is shared: joint money, intimacy, the things you cannot keep alone.
With the Sun in Scorpio and the Moon in Taurus, the question sharpens into something practical. What have you merged that should have stayed yours, and what have you held separately that would be better shared.
Mercury is retrograde in Scorpio for this lunation, which means the shared half of that question is already under review. Conversations about joint money or unstated terms resurface now, and they usually resurface because they were left unfinished.
The Bigger Picture
Let’s start with what’s happening in the sky.
- The Moon at 2 degrees Taurus sits opposite the Sun at 2 degrees Scorpio. The whole lunation runs on that axis: what is yours against what is shared.
- Uranus has left Taurus. It moved into Gemini in April 2026, so for the first time in seven years a Taurus full moon arrives without it.
- The Sun in Scorpio keeps us focused on what’s authentic and emotionally honest.
- Venus is retrograde at 29 degrees Libra. Venus rules Taurus, so the planet governing this full moon is moving backward until November 13.
- Mercury is retrograde at 20 degrees Scorpio, in the same sign as the Sun, so conversations about shared money and unstated terms reopen. Mars is at 15 degrees Leo with Jupiter, which keeps the outward energy high while the reviewing happens.
Saturn and Neptune are both retrograde in Aries and close together, which keeps a long running theme in play: a vision that still needs a structure to live inside. Pluto has just turned direct at 3 degrees Aquarius, so the slowest pressure in the chart is moving forward again.
The Message of the Taurus Full Moon
This is a powerful time to check in with your relationship to comfort, security, and self-worth. Taurus energy asks simple but direct questions:
- Do I feel grounded in the work I’m doing?
- Am I building a foundation that supports my life?
- Does what I’m creating align with my values, or am I chasing something that used to matter but doesn’t anymore?
Scorpio’s influence reminds us that stability is not about staying the same. It’s about creating safety within yourself so you can keep evolving. If something in your life feels stagnant or draining, this Full Moon can help you make changes that are practical.
For Creatives and Entrepreneurs
If you’re a creative or business owner, this lunation hits close to home. Taurus rules resources, money, and value. It connects directly to how you earn, what you offer, and how you price your work.
This is a great time to look at what’s truly sustainable in your business. Are your offers aligned with your energy? Do your systems support you, or are they running you into the ground?
The Scorpio Sun asks for emotional truth in the way you show up. If your business model, creative process, or even your online presence doesn’t feel like you anymore, this is your cue to shift it. With Uranus nearby, a fresh idea or perspective might appear out of nowhere. Don’t ignore it.
A Real Moment of Reflection
This Full Moon is about building smarter. Taurus energy reminds us that steady effort compounds over time. It’s a reality check about the work that’s worth your time and what isn’t.
If you’ve been burned out, disconnected, or questioning your direction, this Moon can bring clarity through simplicity. The message is to return to what’s real, what’s steady, and what feels good in your body.

Taurus Full Moon by Rising Sign
Read for your Rising Sign for the most accurate themes. Each Rising experiences this Full Moon differently depending on which house Taurus lights up in your chart.
Taurus Full Moon for Aries Rising
This one lands in your 2nd house of money, possessions and self-worth, with the Sun opposite in your 8th house of shared resources. Something about what you earn against what you owe or share comes to a head. Venus is retrograde through all of this, so the number moves before it settles anywhere. Saturn and Neptune are both sitting in Aries on your rising sign this season, which gives whatever you decide you are worth a lot more weight than usual.
Taurus Full Moon for Taurus Rising
The full moon falls right on your own rising sign in the 1st house, so this is your yearly culmination. It is also the first one in seven years without Uranus in your sign disrupting it, which you may genuinely feel. Something about how you present, what you need, or the shape of your life reaches its peak. Venus is your ruler and she is retrograde, so the clarity arrives well before the decision does. See it fully now and act in November.
Taurus Full Moon for Gemini Rising
Your 12th house takes this one, which makes it the least visible culmination of your year. Private material, rest, and whatever has been running below your own notice. Uranus is retrograde in Gemini on your rising sign, so you are already mid-revision, and a 12th house full moon usually surfaces what that revision has been costing you. Sleep matters more than usual this week.
Taurus Full Moon for Cancer Rising
Friendship, networks and the future you are moving toward all live in the 11th house, and this full moon arrives there. Something about a group or a long-held hope reaches its point. The Sun sits opposite in your 5th house of creativity and romance, so the tension runs between what you make alone and who you make it with. Venus retrograde slows the resolution down, so notice who shows up and hold the conclusions for now.
Taurus Full Moon for Leo Rising
This lands in your 10th house of career and public standing, with the Sun down in your 4th house of home. That is the oldest work-and-home tension there is, brought to a head. Mars and Jupiter are both in Leo on your rising sign, giving you unusual force behind whatever you decide. The question worth sitting with is whether the public version of you and the private one still describe the same person.
Taurus Full Moon for Virgo Rising
Belief, travel and meaning are the 9th house, which is where this full moon falls, opposite the Sun in your 3rd house of daily communication. A framework reaches its conclusion, or a longing to be somewhere else gets loud enough to act on. Mercury is your ruler and it is retrograde in your 3rd house sitting with the Sun, so the words for all of this are still assembling. Worth writing before you speak this week.
Taurus Full Moon for Libra Rising
The 8th house takes this one, so shared resources, intimacy and unstated terms are all lit up, with the Sun opposite in your 2nd house of your own money. Something about a joint arrangement comes to a head. Venus is your ruler, she is retrograde in Libra right on your own rising sign, and she turns direct on November 13. That is a rare and pointed setup: your worth and a shared arrangement both under review at once. Name the terms and wait to sign them.
Taurus Full Moon for Scorpio Rising
This full moon falls in your 7th house of partnership, directly opposite your rising sign, with the Sun on your own Ascendant. Your yearly relationship culmination, and the sharpest one you get. Mercury is retrograde in Scorpio alongside the Sun, which means a conversation you thought was finished reopens. Say the accurate thing. Venus retrograde means the other person is still deciding too.
Taurus Full Moon for Sagittarius Rising
Work, routine and health belong to the 6th house, and this one arrives there, opposite the Sun in your 12th house. Something in your daily structure reaches the point where it has to give. That 12th house opposition means part of the cause is invisible, so tiredness without a clear source or a drain you stopped noticing both count. Taurus in the 6th wants the fix physical and simple. Start with sleep, food and the calendar.
Taurus Full Moon for Capricorn Rising
Creativity, romance, children and play all sit in your 5th house, which is where this full moon lands, opposite the Sun in your 11th house of community. Something you have been making, or someone you have been drawn to, reaches its peak. Capricorn rising typically schedules pleasure last, and a Taurus full moon here is a good argument for moving it up the list. Venus retrograde suggests the thing you return to matters more than the thing you start.
Taurus Full Moon for Aquarius Rising
Home, family and foundation are the 4th house, and that is where this arrives, with the Sun in your 10th house of career. Where you live against what you do, essentially. Taurus in the 4th wants the home solid and physical, and something about that reaches a decision point now. Pluto has just turned direct in Aquarius on your rising sign, so the person making this decision has been changing for a while already.
Taurus Full Moon for Pisces Rising
This full moon is in your 3rd house of communication, learning and your immediate environment, opposite the Sun in your 9th house of belief. Something you have been trying to say reaches the point where it says itself. Mercury retrograde in your 9th house means the larger framework behind the words is under review as well. Neptune and Saturn are both in Aries in your 2nd house this season, so a question about worth is running underneath the whole conversation.
