TAURUS MAN: - This man appreciates B-E-A-U-T-Y more than any other sign, even more than Libra. Both Taurus and Libra are ruled by Venus, the planet of Love and Beauty. Taurus is the second most materialistic sign next to Capricorn. It is thought that Taurus is more materialistic, but it is indeed Capricorn. Now when it comes to money, coins and bank accounts, it's Taurus who absolutely Loves to count their money AND spend it on beautiful, lavish and expensive items. This man will spare no expense when it comes to his material possessions. And because he rules the 2nd house of values, morals, money and possessions, he is a very possessive sign and somewhat jealous. When he gives you a Valentine that says, "Be Mine" he means it! Taurus men rarely, and I mean rarely ever wander or fall into the arms of another. Taurus Man continually needs to be reassured that you belong to him, that you Love him and that he is appreciated. Most Taurus men will have a very sexy, deep, melodious voice and they are usually great singers because Taurus rules the throat. This is because the "placid bull" is really the "melodious cow." And cows Love to moooooooo! They Love expensive wine, their woman and song.
Just like a melodious cow in the pasture, Taurus men have a plodding like gait. They plod along rarely moving very fast. They stand here and then go stand over there. Taurus Man can be guilty of falling into a rut or pattern because of his own inflexibility; therefore, you may find yourself persuading him to try something new. The easy route is to coax him through flattery. Flattery will get you everywhere with Mr. Taurus. He's sensual and tactile. In fact, the finer the fabric, the more he Loves it. The heavier the wood furniture, the more he Loves it. He's an earth sign so he is attracted to strong wood rather than plastic or lacquer. The secret to Taurus Man is he truly desires to be desired. If he doesn't feel as if you desire him, it can take the wind right out of his sails. He's more attracted to a dominant woman who will show him off like her trophy. This man's confidence is not shaken by a strong female, in fact, a strong woman turns him on. He will also want to maintain his little boy habits and keep his toys, so he'll want you to want him and his toys. Taurus Man is generally stress free, especially if he has his dream woman who is feminine and strong. This man Loves to be seduced, whether you've been together 10 weeks or 10 years. He needs to know you desire him. If Taurus Man is bragging about you to others, you better believe, you've hooked him.

The TAURUS Man
"Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the housel"
". . . Only you'd better not come very close I generally hit everything I can see- when I get really excited."
Perhaps you picture the typical Taurus man as a quiet, practical soul, as sensible and down-to-earth as an old pair of shoes. It's true-he is. You may also observe that he's slow to move to action, deliberate and careful. True again. Therefore, you deduce, it's only logical to assume he's not very romantic. Positively false.
Where did you get the idea you can analyze the Taurean nature by using pure logic alone? Probably from some Libra fellow who's trying to make an impression on you. Well, he's wrong. Logic isn't very helpful when you're trying to solve the riddle of a strong, masculine symbol like the bull, who's ruled by a loving, peaceful planet like Venus. Send that Libra man with his clever mind back to the library.
The buU may take a long time deciding if he wants you for his woman. He's not going to execute a flashy swan dive into the pool of romance and discover on the way down that someone forgot to fill it with water. But once he's made up his mind that you're the one, and once he sets his mind on winning you, he'll make the Libra lover look like a fumbler. He'll even put the smitten lion and the passionate Scorpio to shame. That sensible, practical, slow, determined Taurus male is capable of sending you one pink rose each day until you surrender to his proposal-of marriage-or whatever. He can even write a poetic song or verse, and bashfully mail it to you without signing it, knowing you'll guess the sender. Taurus can be a tender, gentle and protective lover. His sensual nature will make him vulnerable to your exotic perfume, the smoothness of your skin and softness of your hair. He may not say so in flowery language to your face, but he will find a way to convey the message. The Taurus sense of touch is a tangible thing.
This negative, fixed earth sign is full of contradictions in love. A Taurean will like to see you dress in luxurious furs and rich colors. He may buy you a fragrant bunch of fresh, spring violets for your furs from the little old lady on the corner, and leave a large tip in her basket because she reminds him of his mother. (You, however, will definitely not remind him of either his mother or his sister -except when it comes to protecting you from the rude glances of other bulls who try to move in.) Music will stir his emotions and put him in the mood for love. He's almost sure to have a favorite song that reminds him of you each time he hears it. It's the one he keeps playing on the juke box.
If you need more proof of the romance in his soul, the typical Taurus man will help you build your hope chest with birthday gifts of china and silver, and at Christmas he'll remind you of Santa himself when he comes calling, loaded down with mysterious packages and sentimental trinkets. He'll suggest moonlight swims, picnics in cool, secluded woods, and walks down country lanes under the stars. His will be the largest, fanciest, most eloquent Valentine the postman ever delivered on February 14th. When a Taurus man courts you, he courts you. He doesn't fool around. You'll probably be taken to dine in glamorous restaurants, with soft lights and violins, and he'll never forget the date you first met or any other intimate anniversary between you. For the love of buttercups, how much romance do you need?
It's perfectly true that the bull isn't a wild dreamer like the Aquarian male. Taurus will never sweep you off your feet like a Leo, or promise to take you floating away to live with him in a fairy castle, drifting on pink clouds forever and a day, like an Aries. He's more likely to drop by on foot some Saturday night, with the architect's blueprints for the house he plans to build for you, out of real lumber and with real cash. He'll probably make the down payment on the property, or at the very least, on the apart" ment lease, before you become engaged. This man means business. When the bull lifts you across his threshold and plants you firmly in his substantial home, which won't bear the faintest resemblance to a fairy castle, you can be sure the mortgage is secure at the bank. That's hardly something to complain about. You'll wonder why you ever wanted to be wrapped in those pink clouds, once you've been warmly and snugly enfolded in the soft Taurean blanket of security. You'll be too busy enjoying your new furniture and checking account (or the certainty that they're just around the corner) to weep for misty dreams that probably wouldn't have come true anyway. That is, if you're a female who appreciates solid value. Not every woman does, more's the pity. But sensible girls, from eighteen to eighty, value the peaceful, easygoing ways of the bull and his calm, stable nature. His sentimental gestures and pleasantly earthy wooing can be just as satisfying as the soulful, poetic sighs of more colorful lovers, or the dashing excitement of the flashier Don Juans, quite often even more so. Ask any woman who's been sensible enough to get herself good and loved by a strong Taurean. There are lots of contented cows and happy heifers around.
A Taurus man plans for tomorrow carefully. As the squirrel stores his nuts when they're plentiful in the summer, to provide security for the cold, barren winter-the temporary pleasures of a bright afternoon will never distract Taurus from preparing for the days when the slush piles up at the curb. It's a funny thing, but the hus-^ bands who are financially able to take or send their wives to Florida in January are often born in May.
Naturally, there are drawbacks to a romantic escapade with a Taurus male-all is not peaches and perfection. For one thing, youll have to brush up on your ladylike behavior. No Taurus man is going to put up with a loud, masculine female who cracks a whip like an animal trainer. If you have any forceful opinions, don't shove them down his throat or brag about your brainpower in public. Privately, he respects a female with intelligence (though he places a higher premium on plain common sense), but you'd just better let him be the bright one of the team when you're out together dancing cheek to cheek-even if you're just sitting in a restaurant, knee to knee. Make like the emancipated woman in front of his friends and he'll have one of two reactions. If he's a primitive Taurean (and you'd be surprised how many of those there are), he's likely to give you a shove and a shaking, maybe even a good smack in the right place when you get
home-or worse, before you get home. If he's a more sophisticated type, he'll simply clam up on you in front of everyone and sit there like a large chunk of cold stone, refusing to speak a word the rest of the night, until you're so embarrassed you wish the floor would swallow you. Your friends will be most uncomfortable, too. It can really dampen an evening, not to mention cramp your style.
Your first impulse will be to try to undo the damage, but trying to jolly him out of his stubborn mood before it's run its course is literally impossible. It's like trying to move the Rock of Gibraltar. As a matter of fact, if you attempt to tease him back into normal social behavior, you may wish you had just let him sulk. A hunk of cold stone is infinitely more acceptable than his reaction to your coaxing after you've angered him. Push him too far and he'll turn from a silent sphinx into a bellowing bull, who may very well let loose some mighty earthy language, which will cause your cheeks to flame even pinker. Either that, or he'll say calmly to the group, "Excuse me for breaking up the party, but I have to drag this woman with the tent flap mouth home and teach her a few lessons." You'll hide from everyone you know for weeks afterwards. And all because, when he's holding the group spellbound with his summary of the political scene, you interrupt him with a remark like, "Oh> honey, don't be so naive. Everyone knows Utterbach takes bribes. With his record he couldn't get elected chairman of the Boy Scout cookie sale, let alone Congressman. You don't know what you're talking about," at which point he'll dig in those heels, fold his arms across that beefy chest, and begin to pout-or clobber you- whichever. If you see him reach for his coat, you might as well put on yours, too. A Taurus man will seldom leave his woman alone with the wolves, unprotected, no matter how angry she's made him. He'll take her along, by the hair, if necessary. So don't get any ideas of staying behind to get sympathy from the others. When he leaves, you leave. And I would strongly advise you to apologize before you get home. He won't. Running to Mama's arms won't do any good. You share his bed and board, as long as he pays the rent. Mother-in-law interference is about the last thing the typical bull will stand for. The first time you try that "running home to Mother" routine will probably be the last. After they once experience his fury, your parents wll prefer to keep the door locked and let you handle your own problems.
I know a Taurus man with an aggressive wife who found aunique solution. He simply refuses to go out with her in piblic. Her irresistible force met an immovable object- tm. She can go out and rob other men of their mas-cilinity all she wants, not Taurus, the bull. He's very fond o: his positive mate, and they have rather a nice team gong in many ways; they respect each other tremendously -but until she learns to submit, keep her mouth closed, aid let him be the man, she's forced to go to parties, roetings and the theater without an escort. This particular Tiurean has refused to accompany her ever since the time tby joined several other couples for dinner at a fancy pice. His wife grabbed the menu from him and ordered fa- the whole group. She made unflattering remarks about hi haircut and his tie during the first course, and supplied tb punch line to three of his jokes during the entree. IS)w she goes to social functions alone, while her Taurus nate refuses to budge from his castle. You can't really bkme the bull. He's just being true to his Sun sign. It's sfll a solid marriage, but you may not be so lucky. So An't tempt your Taurean by shoving him around.
He's extremely patient, but he won't wear a ring in his n'se. He doesn't necessarily want a clinging vine, either. H's too practical, and he likes his freedom too much to eijoy a female who sticks to him like rubber cement and cies at the drop of a hanky. He doesn't mind a woman wth some fire and spunk. It intrigues him and balances hs own steadier maturity. With a smile of detached amuse-nsnt, he'll watch her cheerfully scampering around in tpical feminine fashion, as one would watch a beloved, petty kitten playing with a brightly colored ball of yam. Jst so kitty knows when the bull gives a strong tug on tb yarn, it's time to stop the fun and games and listen to tb voice of her master. No one can be kinder, more gentle aid truly tolerant than a Taurus man, when his mas-clinity is secure. He'll do anything in the world for the w>man he loves except allow her to wear the pants. Tiurus may sometimes behave like a clumsy circus bear, aid his humor is often rough and ridiculous. But he will n
The bull enjoys shopping around and he'll seldom rush pill mell into a serious courtship. The puzzled girl he's been taking to the movies every Saturday night for a year may wonder if he's ever going to catch fire. It takes time for him to work up enough steam in the boiler to get the engine going at full speed, but once he's set his sights on a particular female, he can't be sidetracked. He may even forget to be sensible and cautious. The typical Taurus man is blind to any warnings of incompatibility when he's been pierced by Cupid's arrow. The more his friends point out possible stumbling blocks, the more obstinate he gets, and you know how obstinate that can be. Consequently, the Taurean frequently makes the mistake of getting tangled up with fire and air signs, when he's better off with earth and water, in most cases. Sometimes, it works out beneficially. Opposites can attract, and stay attracted. But when it doesn't, Taurus will take a long time to get over the scars of a divorce before he's ready to settle down again with a wife who more closely matches his own disposition and outlook.
The financial picture with a Taurus man is usually excellent. Paint it pink and rosy. Few Taureans will fail to accumulate at least security, if not wealth. Some of them play the game of Monopoly with real money. And they win. Both real estate and cash are easily conquered by the bull.
He probably loves the country, football, fishing and camping. If none of these, he likes flowers, gardening or long walks. He prefers to read books about the dashing heroes of olden days or the biographies of empire builders, rather than sophisticated fiction or deep philosophy. Most Taurus males subscribe to several men's magazines, some earthy and practical, others featuring glossy pages of feminine pulchritude.
He's the ultimate in a man's man, so don't ever serve him those dainty tea sandwiches with the crusts sliced off. He likes good, old-fashioned home cooking, with. plenty of potatoes and gravy, and apple pie like Mom used to make. Get yourself a good cookbook. He'll also be willing to take you out to dine frequently. Typical Taureans don't expect their wives to be kitchen slaves. (But he may mess up your pots and pans when he plays Sunday chef and expects you to play bus boy.)
As a parent, he's a perfect delight. He'll think it's important to have a son to carry on the family name, but hell love the little girls with special tenderness. Taurus men make loving, affectionate, warm and sympathetic fathers. He'll set high standards for the children and expect them to respect property and possessions. The Taurean dad is patient. He won't mind if the children learn their lessons slowly, so long as they get them correctly. His attitude is that young minds should be trained gradually toward maturity. You may find that he puts too much emphasis on material matters and showers them with expensive gifts that spoil them. But he'll also shower them with his time and devotion, and the firm hand of discipline will be there when it's needed. In general, life with father, if he was born in May, can be a warm experience, overflowing with love-except for those rare occasions when the bull charges in blind, furious anger, and the whole family has to hide behind the piano.
The typical Taurean husband is generous to a fault with his wife. He won't deny you nice clothes, perfume and baubles; attractive but practical furniture and a full pantry. The bull seldom skimps on furnishings, clothing or food. Still, money won't bum any noticeable holes in his pockets (unless there are impulsive financial aspects in his natal chart). He loves luxury, but he's just as enamoured with value, and he'll make sure his cash buys more than a salesman's hot air.
This man will work hard and need lots of rest. See that he gets it, because he can be quite a grumpy grouch when he's tired and out of sorts. Don't ever nag him or accuse him of being lazy. That's like waving a red flag in his face. He lives life at his own leisurely pace, and he won't be rushed or pushed. His speedometer is set at one speed-deliberate. Attempts to make him spin merrily through a continual round of whirlwind social activity are doomed to failure. He will enjoy entertaining in his own home, but he'll prefer a few people of compatible interests to large crowds. Invite old friends, or those who have serious goals and ambitions, and he'll behave pleasantly and hospitably. If you insist on cluttering his castle with emptyheaded, frivolous Go-Go types, he may just disappear from the scene-sometimes permanently.
Buy him one of those papa bear chairs that stretches out into a reclining position. No loud noises, blaring radios and TV sets, chaos and scattered toys, please. Keep your home full of music, beauty and peace. Remember that the trousers fit him better than they do you. Be his woman, and you couldn't ask for a better man. No one else will ever treat you with such gracious consideration. He really deserves to be respected for it. Taurus love is simple, plain and honest. His affectionate nature and flattering attention will make you sure you are loved, in spite of all your little faults and failings that other men would constantly criticize. Taurus gives enduring loyalty and devotion, with a faithful heart. That adds up to emotional security. Combined with financial security and romance, there's little else to ask for. So all right, he's stubborn, but remember that stubbornness turned upside down is patience, and that's a rare virtue.
Get a nice, furry, fluffy blanket (Taurus loves things that feel soft to the touch), tuck it around him when he's in his papa bear chair, and read him the stock market report. Be sure he gets his hot bath with scented oils and lots of fragrant soap. Serve him a big bowl of rich porridge. Then you're sure to have a strong, gentle man, who will protect you from all the storms. Contentment is the word. Doesn't it have a cozy sound?

COMPATIBILITY
Taurus and Aries
Aries, the fiery, impulsive Ram makes an interesting partner for Taurus, the generally calm and centred Bull. The Ram is always ready for action, while you may prefer just sitting quietly. Although the two of you may not seem to have much in common, you can find shared interests and goals that can bring you together. While this isn't going to be the easiest of combinations, it can be very rewarding for both of you.
Fiery Aries is a Cardinal sign and Earthy Taurus is a Fixed Sign, which may result in a struggle for power and dominance. Taurus is not so quick on the trigger as Aries, but you both have a mutual interest in making love. Aries is emotional and Taurus is sensual, so you're bound to have fun.Both of you have creative vision and ambition, but you have the added advantage of staying power. In fact, it is your patience and determination that can keep the two of you together, for Aries is always ready to begin anew somewhere else, if necessary. Yet Aries takes comfort in your presence and is able to blossom when gently corralled by the Bull. You, on the other hand, secretly enjoy the fact that Aries lights a fire under you at times. It is all to easy to become complacent, but with an Aries around, you'll be inspired to try something new now and again.
As an Earth Sign blending with a Fire Sign, be aware that you are perfectly capable of destroying each other. Aries has the power to infuriate you with impulsive and selfish actions, but you have the power to squash your Arien lover's childlike enthusiasm when you dig your heels in and refuse to budge. Aries is ruled by fiery Mars, while you are ruled by peace-loving Venus, making it difficult for you to communicate, no matter what your gender happens to be! You'll need to be more tolerant than you are used to, because your natural possessiveness and thrifty budgeting will aggravate the fiery Ram, who loves nothing more than to splash out on a reckless spending spree. However, you both have a strong creative drive and will enjoy working together as a team for the same goals. Once you have learned to respect each other's differences, this should be a very rewarding relationship.
The combination certainly requires discipline and motivation. It often requires the support of compatible Moon and Ascendant signs. An Aries partner will always be inclined to be impulsive, which could drive you batty in the long run. They just never seem to learn! An affectionate affair can turn into a difficult marriage. Seek out creative projects to work on (including raising a family) and you can channel your combined energy into creating something positive.
Taurus and Taurus
Two Bulls can make beautiful music together, whether you are on a country farm or city flat. It's easy to spend time with someone who has similar values and enjoys the same things you do. The two of you will naturally be attracted to each other, but since you both tend to attract rather than pursue, one of you will have to make the first move!
Because you are both of a Fixed Sign nature, one of your biggest challenges will come when you face a battle of your individual wills. If you agree on something, great! If not, each one of you is prepared to dig in your heels and wait for as long as it takes to get your own way. Compromise is not a skill either of you care to develop. Many of you would rather adopt a scorched earth policy than give an inch when it comes to negotiating, but in personal relationships concessions must be made. You will need to work hard to ensure that you remain on the same team, because you haven't got a more formidable enemy or competitor than someone who shares your sign!
The double Earth factor - and the fact that Taurus is ruled by sensual, charming Venus - can lead to many sensual days and nights... even if this is not an intimate relationship, you will enjoy sharing sumptuous meals in comfortable surroundings. The down side of this is that you are also both likely to put on weight and otherwise indulge in excessive behaviour. Venus is artistic, musical and attracts money, so you can build a good life, if you choose. Neither of you enjoys being told to stop and moderation isn't in your vocabulary, so it might be wise to take up some sort of physical discipline together. Yoga is perfect because it increases flexibility... something you could use help with in both body and mind. The two of you will also benefit from spending time in parks and gardens, where you can relax and focus on the simple sweetness of life.
This combination can work well but is best when Moon and Ascendant harmonize in other signs. Without a motivating factor, it would be very easy for you to get into a rut and stay there! This is a good combination for all kinds of relationships, but works especially well for long-term commitments.
Taurus and Gemini
You may be taken by the Twin's undeniable charm, but you might also want to think twice before falling in love with a Gemini. Most Bulls are possessive by nature, and you cannot possess an airy Gemini any more than you can own the wind. This can make a good friendship, family, or business oriented relationship, but in more intimate relationships harmonious aspects between Moon and Ascendant are needed.
Because Gemini is of a Mutable nature, he or she won't understand your need to put down roots and general discomfort with change. As far as Gemini is concerned, being free of constraints and exploring different worlds each day is about as close as one can come to heaven. You like to know you can count on things being regular, predictable, and dependable. To Gemini, that spells b-o-r-i-n-g. Of course, your rich imagination and creativity makes you anything but dull, but the flighty, Mercury-influenced Twins sometimes mistake sheer variety for quality. With peace loving Venus guiding you, you may decide to be patient with Gemini and allow him or her to finally realize that you truly are a partner worth settling down for. But then again, you may decide that trying to get a Gemini to commit isn't worth the trouble.
Gemini is Air Sign, and as an down-to-Earth Sign you may have trouble relating to your Gemini friend's less practical nature. It is important to try to understand your innate temperamental differences. If Gemini can respect your need for security and you can respect Gemini's need for variety and change, you may be able to make a go of it. However, don't expect it to be easy. If Taurus represents the toddler of the Zodiac, then Gemini represents the teenager... and neither makes the best playmate for the other.
This combination is not the easiest for close, personal relationships but can work well when harmonious aspects between personal planets and Ascendant exist. You can learn a thing or two from each other, but it will require patience and understanding on both parts!
Taurus and Cancer
Your encounter with Taurus the Bull has the aroma of a fine home-cooked meal. The delicious pleasures of Venus attract your senses,
for the Bull has an irresistible personal magnetism that will draw you into their circle, rather than actively seeking you out. While the Bull is very fond of members of the opposite sex, Taurus prefers to be courted.
Taurus, however, is straight-forward and down-to-earth in sexual matters. The Bull prefers a no-nonsense approach; too much verbalising, or complex fantasising is not really Taurus's thing. Music or other forms of sensual, non-verbal expression will strike a chord in the Taurean nature.
Faithful friends (and dedicated enemies), Taureans prefer long-lasting relationships and seek to build strong alliances, although they can be misled by their sensual natures, especially when young. Taurus however will grow more stable and discriminating as time goes on, for the Taurean character is naturally inclined to permanence and the satisfaction of a job well done.
Like the Bull, Taurus is slow to anger, then briefly furious before returning to a state of preferred placidity. A lot happens below the surface with Taurus; friends can be quite surprised by sudden changes of heart which have actually been bubbling down there for longer than anyone could have suspected!
Because Cancer is a Cardinal Sign,you will be inclined to take the lead. While the Bull might not mind this with your joint concerns, your Taurean lover may not care for your rather too active interest in his or her every waking moment, or sleeping moments for that matter. A Fixed Sign, the Bull likes to be in control and does not appreciate any meddling. Don't be too demanding, or Taurus might begin to feel smothered. On the other hand, the typical Taurus will enjoy your tender affection and concerned attention. Most Crabs are essentially insecure, but the trustworthy, stable nature of the Bull should relieve you of much worry about the future.
Sensual Taurus, an Earth Sign, provides a good, solid grounding to your emotional nature (Cancer being a Water Sign). Water and Earth mix to form a fertile soil in which seeds will grow.Together, the two of you can be fruitful and multiply, whether you are creating a family, a business, or an artistic enterprise! However, having opened the floodgates of passion, Taurus can be both insatiable and possessive, so Taurean emotions will be trifled with at your peril.
The great side of this is that Taurus is intensely loyal and makes a caring, life-long partner, who will seek to provide for and satisfy your every need. This is a perfect match.
Taurus and Leo
The glamorous, dramatic Lion may grab your attention, but be prepared to engage in epic power struggles and battles of the will. The two of you share ambition, determination, and an undeniable animal attraction, but you also possess iron wills. This can be a wonderful partnership, but first you must tame the beasts within.
Because you are both Fixed Signs, you have a powerful sense of purpose and are unlikely to be deterred from your goals. This can also be experienced by others as extreme stubbornness and obstinacy! When you focus your combined staying power on achieving worthy ends, nothing can stand in your way. Unfortunately, when you focus on trying to control and dominate each other, you end up in an endless stalemate. Mutual respect is required in this relationship, because without it you may find that your best friend has become your worst enemy.
Leo is a dynamic Fire Sign, ruled by the blazing Sun, while Taurus is a more laid back Earth Sign,ruled by the glow of Venus. This makes it imperative to respect your temperamental differences. Leo's anger tends to flash easily and suddenly, but disappears just as quickly as it starts. You, on the other hand, are famous for your slow burns that take many offences to start, but once begun rarely ever subside. It is important for the two of you to learn to communicate effectively, otherwise unfortunate misunderstandings could spell the end of your relationship.
The creative arts can bring you together, as Leo loves to be in the spotlight and you love to share in all things beautiful. Leo is filled with inspiration, but you have what it takes to make dreams come true. Because Leo is ruled by the Sun, he or she has a need to shine. Venus gives you the skills it takes to help others shine, making you the perfect PR person for the less tactful Cat. When you work together, you have incredible potential to both inspire and entertain.
This combination is difficult but can be rewarding. If more harmonious contacts exist between your personal planets and Ascendant, it should be easier to communicate and understand each other.
Taurus and Virgo
The Bull and the Virgin are very comfortable together, making this a very natural and easy combination. In fact, it's likely to be a case of love at first sight! Of course, you may be annoyed by Virgo's occasionally nit-picking perfectionism, but overall you will enjoy spending time with someone who is as solid and practical as you are.
Virgo, the Virgin, is a Mutable Sign and has a strong need to communicate . You are known for being the strong, silent type, so you'll need to open up a bit more and be willing to explore your thoughts and feelings. Most Virgins are amateur psychologists, and a surprising number are actually professionally trained to work in the mental health field. You may see much of this as psychobabble and mumbo-jumbo, because you tend to view things from a refreshingly simple framework. You may be able to help keep your Virgo friend from overanalyzing every hiccup, while your very on Virgo can show you that sometimes there is more going on beneath the surface than you might think.
As two Earth Signs, you have much in common. Both of you are interested in financial security and physical comfort. Taurus keeps a careful eye on expenditures, which pleases thrifty Virgo. However, you may want to spend more on luxuries, while your opposite number may insist on only the bare necessities. Virgo can help you to economize better, while you can show Virgo the value of occasionally indulging in small pleasures. You are both interested in good value and quality, so you both tend to be good stewards of your resources. Together, you can build quite a fortune if you put your minds to it.
The physical side of life is also important to you both, but you may need to coax the sexual fires into business with Virgo, who has a long fuse, and explodes if you are patient! Virgo may play food cop more than you like. Virgo can help you to be more health and diet conscious, but you can show Virgo that it's quite all right to indulge in gastronomic delights on occasion.
Both of you have been blessed with the gifts of common sense, resourcefulness, and practicality, which makes for a very solid astrological combination. This can be a long lasting and rewarding partnership of any kind and works especially well in family and marriage. It's a successful team that makes a perfect match.
Taurus and Libra
Although you may be very different in temperament, you'll find much to like about your charming Libran partner. You both appreciate beauty and delight in the finer things in life, which can build a basis for an enjoyable relationship. Human connections are very important to both of you, and you will both work hard to make a relationship succeed. But first, you must learn to appreciate each other's differences!
Both signs are ruled by Venus, so comfort and company are high on your list of priorities. The way to the Libran heart is through appreciation and admiration. Make sure you understand this need for appreciation if you want to make progress. Libra is very much about relationship: your Libran partner seeks to please and views lovemaking as an art. Creating the right environment for love is very important and a failure to do so on your part will soon see Libra looking elsewhere.
Libra's idea of entertainment tends to be more upmarket, while you rather prefer to hang out at the pub down the street. Money too may be a problem, for Libra doesn't share your cautious financial approach, but you both tend to be acquisitive and like to collect beautiful things. Compromise by being open to new experiences with each other. Airy Libra leans towards a more refined appreciation of the arts, while you express a more earthy sensuality. If Libra is willing to eat at your favourite burger joint, you can agree to visit the art museum. If Libra wants you to attend a formal social function, you can always say 'yes' in exchange for an afternoon of hiking or cycling. This way, you each get to enjoy the best of both worlds!
Libra is a Cardinal Sign, so is inclined to take the lead in your activities. However, Libra is notorious for waffling back and forth over everything, which can drive even the most patient Bull batty. Once you decide on a course of action, not much can deter you from it... whereas Libra may change direction several times in the course of one day! You can help Libra see which choices make the most sense... something you have an uncanny gift for. In return, Libra can help you respond more gracefully in social situations, even when you feel more like a raging bull.
In time, though, Libra's casual, fickle attitude toward love may really get to you. You are naturally possessive, even jealous, and this urge to own and control will not sit well with your flirty Libran. It is not the easiest combination, but a match can work if you are both willing to compromise. Harmonious aspects between other chart factors, such as Moon and Ascendant can produce a long and happy partnership, otherwise this romantic combination will not last long.
Taurus and Scorpio
Steer clear of this relationship if you can't take the heat, because when the Bull and the Scorpion get together, you can expect the mercury to rise! You'll either love each other or hate each other, but you'll never be indifferent about the relationship.
Scorpio is ruled by Mars and Taurus is ruled by Venus. As astrological opposites, your personalities are actually quite complementary. Yet the very things that attract you to each other can drive you apart, so it is important to understand your fundamental emotional differences. This is a case of the irresistible force meeting the immovable object. You can both be jealous, possessive and controlling when you feel insecure, but you can avoid many problems by being up-front about what your fears and needs are. Scorpio has a strong sixth sense and will probably know when you are trying to hide something, so it is important to communicate openly and honestly. However, be aware that unevolved Scorpions are capable of the most heartless deceptions and are likely to accuse you of doing the very things they are guilty of. If you discover you've become involved with a Scorpio on the dark side, don't think you can change or save him or her. Scorpio is just as stubborn as you are, and that's saying something.
Because you are both Fixed Signs, you can expect a battle of the wills to erupt from time to time. You each have strong opinions from what is the best brand of breakfast cereal to who should run for political office, so it's best to agree to disagree from the start. You are both very loyal to what you hold dear, and that can include each other, which can be a very good thing. It is important to find activities you can enjoy sharing, because this is a relationship that benefits from having shared goals and experiences. Family is usually of high importance to both of you, but you may not agree on the best way to handle family relationships. The truth is probably that if you meet in the middle, you will be more effective than if you stick to your own personal extremes.
This can be a challenging combination but also a very passionate and loyal one. Harmonious aspects between Moon and Ascendant will go far in assuring that this will be a long lasting and rewarding connection.
Taurus and Sagittarius
It's not that you don't find the Archer amusing and pleasant to be around... it's just that you are interested in putting down roots and Sagittarius wants to go around the world at least three or four times before even thinking about settling down. If the two of you find yourselves in a relationship together, chances are very good that you have complimentary Moon and Ascendant Signs that help you to overcome your fundamental differences.
Expansive Jupiter urges the Archer to aim ever higher, always moving on to the next goal or conquest. Life is a quest for this Mutable Sign, and while he or she may enjoy the feast at your table, it is usually just a stop along the way. As a Fixed Sign ruled by Venus, you would much prefer to spend your days in familiar, comfortable surroundings. Even if you love to travel, you are more likely to require luxury accommodations, while your Sagittarian friend will get excited over pitching a tent on Mount Everest! Some of you, especially those influenced by Fire and Air Signs, will enjoy camping in the wilderness. But in general, a comfy couch and an interesting program to watch on the television is more your style.
Because Sagittarius is a Fire Sign and Taurus is an Earth Sign, you must be very respectful of each other's natural emotional differences. You may be more of the strong and silent type, only saying 'I love you' after being very sure that you really mean it. The Archer's fiery enthusiasm shouts promises of love from the rooftops, only to change his or her mind the following morning! Yet Sagittarius can inspire you to reach for your dreams and you can show Sagittarius that a stable bow is needed for an arrow to make its mark. Sagittarius can light a fire under you, while you can help ground the Archer in return, making this relationship worth the work it will take.
While this isn't the most compatible combination, it can work when more harmonious connections between Moon and Ascendant exist. With patience and understanding, the steady Bull can learn to live with the venturesome Archer.
Taurus and Capricorn
When the Bull and the Sea-Goat get together, it may seem like a match made in heaven. With so much in common, it is easy for you to get along with someone who has such good taste! The two of you have a talent for attracting the finer things in life and can do very well as a team in both business and personal relationships.
Conservative Saturn influences Capricorn, giving the Goat a serious and responsible nature, with the ability to work towards long-term goals. As a Taurus, you are in tune with pleasure-loving Venus, so it will be up to you to help your Capricorn lover loosen up a bit. In turn, the Sea-Goat will support you in your efforts to improve yourself, which isn't usually on the top of your list of things to do. While you are no stranger to hard work, many Bulls are content to maintain the status quo. Capricorn, on the other hand, is always looking for a worthy mountain to climb. There is a time to strive and a time to rest and enjoy, and together you two have a good chance of finding the perfect balance.
Because you are both Earth Signs, your temperaments are fundamentally similar. In the art of lovemaking, Capricorn is enthusiastic and adventurous when aroused, but can be possessive and jealous when threatened. However, you can be comfortable knowing that the loyal Goat will always be there for you. You both enjoy the pleasures of the senses and should have a very passionate sex life... a bit too earthy for some perhaps, but for the two of you it is just right!
Capricorn can have emotional reservations that have arisen in early years. For this reason the Goat can be somewhat insecure and often does not reach full potential until later in life. Your strength is thus a perfect complement for Cap's creative surge. Some of you will have to guard against being too materialistic. Life is not just about good food, fine wine, and the advantages money can buy! There is much you can do to make the world a better place, whether it is volunteer your time to Habitat for Humanity, or a charity that benefits the needy children of the world. The more the two of you give to the world, the more you are likely to receive in return.
This is generally a very pleasant combination for love and marriage, but also for business, pleasure, and in family relationships. It can make a wonderful, long-lasting partnership that will benefit the two of you and the community you live in. It really is a perfect match!
Taurus and Aquarius
This is a most unlikely match, but it often happens that you are strangely attracted to the unique and original Water Bearer. Of course, after the initial sparks cool, you may wonder what you could have possibly been thinking when you joined forces with someone so different from yourself. In the end, this relationship will only work out if both parties are willing to compromise and grow.
The differences between you are legion. You are notorious for your dislike of change, but Aquarius thrives on the new and unusual. Especially the unusual. In fact, the more unusual, the better for Aquarius, which may have you looking for the nearest exit when he or she comes home with an ostrich she agreed to babysit for a week or two. You, on the other hand, prefer the tried and true. Comfortable, familiar surroundings make you feel safe, and a secure Bull is a happy one. Your idea of heaven is likely to be a home-cooked meal followed by relaxing comfortably in your own garden patio, which Aquarius could do well to experience now and then. Everyone needs to be grounded and centred, which is something you come by naturally. In return, your Aquarius partner can help you open up to the wonderful possibilities in life, and to be less afraid of an uncertain and changeable future.
As an Earth Sign, you may find it very hard to relate to the Water Bearer's Air Sign nature. You thrive on outward and concrete expressions of affection, while Aquarius may seem detached and emotionally unavailable at times. Possessiveness is a natural instinct for you, but Aquarius is a fiercely independent and unpredictable soul. Of course, because you are both Fixed Signs, you are equally capable of great loyalty and devotion. It is better for you to be friends than to be enemies, because as enemies you could potentially destroy each other!
This is usually a difficult combination and not recommended for the faint of heart. Harmonious aspects between Moon and Ascendant can increase the potential for compatibility, and with patience and understanding this can be a rewarding relationship.
Taurus and Pisces
If you like long walks in the park, bubblebaths for two, and the idea of growing old together, this relationship is for you. Of course, you are also in danger of encouraging each other to indulge in all kinds of sensual and luxurious activities, and this could lead to rapidly expanding waistlines! But overall, if the two of you can practice regular self-discipline, this could be a match made in heaven.
Ruled by Venus, you love everything beautiful and sensual, which is something your Piscean lover is likely to be. No matter what the Fish looks like on the outside, he or she knows the value of music, art, and culture in life. Whether the two of you like rock or jazz, fried chicken or sushi, or modern or classic art, spending time feeding your physical senses will be important to your relationship. However, the temptation to overindulge will always be strong, especially when it comes to rich foods and alcohol. If you can incorporate moderate exercise and other healthy habits into your daily routine, you will be able to enjoy all the pleasures in life for many years together.
Because Taurus is an Earth Sign and Pisces is a Water Sign, the chances are very good that this will be a fruitful union in more ways than one. Material success, creativity, and happiness can be yours when you are in harmony with each other. However, if you, as a Fixed Sign, are too controlling and rigid with the Mutable Fish, or Pisces gets too vague and undependable with you, the result can be an emotional quagmire. Pisces, ruled by healing Jupiter and inspired Neptune, can bring inspiration and imagination to the relationship, while you, being more practical, can turn your shared dreams into reality. When the two of you come together to create a home and family by being the best that you each can be, you should be remarkably successful.
This can be one of the most compatible and comfortable combinations of the Zodiac, potentially bringing you both many years of happiness! It can be a very successful and rewarding relationship, in fact, it's a perfect match.
