Vrishabha Rashi in English: Taurus

Vrishabha rashi is Taurus in English, the second sign, ruled by Venus and spanning 30 to 60 degrees of the sidereal zodiac. Common search spellings include Vrishabh, Vrushabha, Taurus rashi.

Moon sign or Sun sign? Your Vrishabha Rashi is where the Moon sat at birth, so a birthday alone cannot confirm it. The sidereal Sun passes through Vrishabha about 15 May to 14 June. Western tropical Taurus dates are approximately 20 April–20 May.

Venus supplies taste, attachment and a desire to preserve value; fixed earth supplies patience. Together they explain why Vrishabha usually trusts steady proof more than novelty.

The bull represents fertility, endurance and material stewardship. The image is sometimes connected with Nandi, Shiva’s devoted bull, but the astrological symbol is broader than any single story.

The Moon is exalted in Vrishabha (deepest at 3°), which is why this Rashi is considered one of the steadiest emotional placements. Ketu is often listed as weak here in many traditions.

A Vrishabha Moon person compares three mixer-grinders for a week, buys the one with the best motor, and still uses it twelve years later — and will tell you exactly why.

Sade Sati for Vrishabha Moon runs while Saturn moves through Mesh, Vrishabha and Mithun. Saturn is a friend of Venus, so many astrologers read this period as slow, practical rebuilding rather than sudden loss.

Vrishabha holds parts of second half of Krittika, Rohini and the first three quarters of Mrigashira; the Moon’s pada sets the naming sound.

Venus in an earth sign gives patience, taste and staying power. Vrishabha builds things that last: savings, property, long marriages, long careers in one place.

Change can be the weak spot. Vrishabha may remain with an unhelpful routine because familiarity feels safer than uncertainty, while comfort can gradually become overindulgence.

The Moon is traditionally exalted in Vrishabha. Astrologers read this as support for emotional steadiness and sensory awareness, but the actual Moon’s degree, aspects and house still matter.

Banking, finance, real estate, luxury goods, food and hospitality, music, fashion, agriculture. Anything where accumulated skill beats speed.

Usually values security, tangible assets and steady accumulation. The balancing lesson is to distinguish sensible caution from refusing every measured opportunity.

Sensual, possessive and deeply loyal. Needs security before affection. Pairs easily with Kanya and Makar, finds Kumbh and Simha hard work.

Vrishabha often shares practical expectations with Kanya and Makar. Simha and Kumbh can challenge its fixed habits; a full Kundli match can reverse a sign-only verdict.

Sidereal Vrishabha (30°–60°) sits about 24° behind tropical Taurus, so its solar window overlaps tropical Gemini.

Kalapurusha anatomy places the face, throat and neck in Vrishabha, which is why classical sources connect this Rashi with the voice and with throat-related sensitivity under stress.

Direction: South. Tattva: Prithvi (Earth). Dosha: Kapha-dominant.

Vrishabha Sankranti has no major pan-regional festival of its own; it quietly carries Vasanta Ritu toward summer and often falls close to the lunar date of Akshaya Tritiya.

The classical remedial deity for Vrishabha's ruling planet Venus is Goddess Lakshmi, worshipped for prosperity and settled comfort. The commonly used beej mantra is Om Draam Dreem Draum Sah Shukraya Namah (Venus beej mantra, traditionally chanted on Fridays).

Diamond or white sapphire suits a well-placed Venus; skip it if Venus is combust or afflicted, and always get a genuine stone tested on the body for a few days first.
