Comfort in Astrology

There are many places where you can find comfort in the natal chart. There are various kinds of comfort and reasons why you strive for that comfort. Where Taurus rules in your natal chart can show what physically comforts you. Where Cancer rules in your natal chart can show what emotionally comforts you. Finally, where Virgo rules in your natal chart can show what mentally comforts you.

These three signs have a strong connection to the Moon, the planet where we not only look for our emotional nature, but also how we seek comfort. Taurus is exalted in the Moon while Cancer is ruled by the Moon exoterically. Virgo is ruled by the Moon esoterically.

Looking where your Venus, Moon, and Mercury can often explain why we seek such comforts, whether it be physical, emotional, or mental. With these planets being personal planets, it’s important to note that we are often in great control with these planets, and that these planets are a strong part of ourselves. Other than the Moon, Venus and Mercury are often close to the Sun, the powerful ego we often seek to protect and maintain. Venus (our ideals) and Mercury (our mind) often work to do this.

If you have an interception in Taurus/Scorpio, you can often find that it can be hard for you to maintain comfort to feel healthily tangible. You may feel as if you are constantly being torn by uncontrollable circumstances. With an interception in Cancer/Capricorn, there is a struggle to channel and contain your emotions on certain issues that can often make you feel emotionally misunderstood. With an interception in Virgo/Pisces, you can feel as if your life is a blur, making your life quite confusing.
