Shukra (Venus) mahadasha for Vrishabha (Taurus) Moon sign
20 years
About the Venus mahadasha
In the Vimshottari system a life moves through nine long periods, each ruled by one planet. The planet that rules the period sets the tone of those years: the areas of life that come forward, and the kind of effort that pays.
The Venus mahadasha lasts 20 years in full. Most people meet it partway through, so the part they live through can be shorter.
Venus stands for love, partnership, comfort, beauty and the arts. Its period tends to bring relationships, pleasant surroundings, creative work and the things that make life comfortable.
What it rules for Taurus
Counted from Taurus as the first house, Venus rules Taurus and Libra, your 1st and 6th houses. During its period the matters of both come forward:
The 1st house is you yourself: your direction, confidence and the way you meet the world. Its lord's period tends to put you at the centre of your own story and to favour fresh starts you choose for yourself.
The 6th house is daily work, service, competition and debts. Its lord's period tends to bring hard work and rivals to deal with, and favours steady routines and paying down what you owe.

Venus and Venus
Venus is itself the lord of Taurus. Its period tends to feel close to your own nature, and what it brings is usually easier to own and make use of.
Your own dasha
Which mahadasha you are in, and when it began, depends on the Moon's nakshatra at the moment you were born, so it is personal to you. Even within the Venus mahadasha, where the planet sits in your own chart and the sub-periods inside it shape the years more than your Moon sign alone.
