Sign of the Month: Taurus

A fire and earth sign together. Aries is a fiery sign ruled by the planet Mars whereas Taurus is an earthy sign ruled by planet Venus. Fire with earth is not an easy combination since the nature of these signs is so different; there will be difficulty in adjusting. This relationship takes a lot of hard work.   Mars of Aries is attractive to your Venus. There are many characteristics, which are opposite to each other. You are drawn to the Aries vitality. Although you are zodiacal neighbors, you are poles apart as far as basic interests & nature is concerned. However, mutual warmth and a shared sense of values can give the relationship a head start. They will certainly share many of the same intellectual and cultural interests and will never be bored. Both possess horns, but who has the stronger pair? Aries are known for their aggressive determination. Taurus can be unflinchingly stubborn. An Aries can usually bat their eyelashes and charm their way out of trouble. The two spring signs together may work if Taurus learns to deal with the impulsive Aries who would be an ideal companion for you on a deserted island. The perfect solution is for each to develop some outside hobbles and friends without raising the possessive hackles of the other

Two earth signs are together. Earth with earth produces a stable & conservative combination. With another Taurus, there is a tendency to do much socializing but little work. Being born in the House of Venus, it really should come as no surprise these self-indulgent pleasure seekers are also great lovers of the arts and all things beautiful. They need to be surrounded by beauty to be happy. Sexually, Taureans are straightforward and down-to-earth. A no-nonsense approach is favored and too much verbalizing or complex fantasizing is not a Taurean trait. Both love food And sex. Due to tendencies of jealousy and stubbornness there could be trouble on the mental plane. One or the other must be willing to give way when the tempers flare and accusations fly, or serious difficulties could arise to mar the nuptial bliss. One point in favor is that both understand the little quirks of the other, and if deeply in love, they will readily forge. Obstinate and stubborn to the end, they quarrel, argue, and love to make up. Maybe it's the sheer stubbornness that makes them think it can work. This can be a peaceful and solid relationship. Taurus is slow to start, since they are neither impulsive nor anxious; however, they can eventually recognize their twin sign and bond. They are both loyal to each other and stable. Beware of excessive stubbornness between these two as Taurus do not back down easily. Win your way with him/her; do not try to force issues. He can be a wonderful ally, but a formidable foe. The best aspect of this pair Relationship is their mutual interest in cultivating Knowledge and utilizing intellect. They are well matched in their enthusiasm, energy, and drive. Their common interests and similar personalities makes theirs a very compatible relationship also.

An earth and air sign together. Taurus, the earthy sign down to the earth while Gemini the airy sign is restless, volatile & flexible.   Such a match! An hour at twilight by each other's side is filled with greater joy and peace than all life's empty fame. The visionary flights of Gemini are a source of rich inspiration to the practical, receptive mind of Taurus. The Gemini personality may prove to be too restless for the Tauren nature. The two signs are emotionally at odds. A very interesting pair! Most Taureans are steadfast and allergic to sudden change. On the other hand, Gemini are always ready to go and looking for new challenges. This can bring a little dust to their relationship. Gemini, on the other hand, is extremely satisfied by the mental and physical balance of Taurus. The Gemini gift of communication a mercurial sign & Taurus inner wisdom are the strong point of this relationship. Taurus and the Gemini often arrive at the right money decisions-they can be at the right place at the right time. There could be a “Midas touch” here, but once a point is proven the lines holding you together might snap. Gemini is active while Taurus opt to be passive where this relationship is concerned. If their Moon or rising signs are compatible, this is a very good relationship.

An earth and water sign together. Combine earth and water and what do you get?  Mud? Not always the best combination! They treat each other as possessions and are jealous with no reason. Good partnership. In relationships, cancer is the most nurturing sign of the zodiac, seek a secure nest. They are best involved with someone who understands their creativity and will accept them for what they are, moods and all.  Taureans offer the cancer, the necessary security and in return receive the affection and loyalty he desires.However, they love the poetry of life and their pursuit of spiritual beauty can bring tremendous brilliance to their lives. But in this case the intensity and hypersensitivity of Cancer fares well with the solid and quiet Taurus. It makes them feel safe and secure that gives the relationship continuity. Both work very well together for the same goal and both love children. Both Taurus and cancer have much in common; the same attributed, the same faults, the same assets, the same deficits. With cancer and Taurus together they know how to make their house a sweet home. 

An earth and fire sign together.  Earth with fire in two such mentally strong signs can cause disharmony & conflict.  Maybe not the most secure of matches, but certainly romantic. Leo can turn the world of Taurus upside down with new sensations and daring activities. The Venus of Taurus and the Sun Of Leo make an attractive combination; but, in the main, it is romantic rather than solid combination, especially when each understands the other's faults. Excellent physical qualities and great sex appeal are there for both partners. Both Taurus and Leo are sun signs that are fond of the finer things in life. Both have refined sensibilities and will be great connoisseurs of good food, music and art. Leo causes Taurus to fill in the gaps and gives him a sense of what he needs or lacks.   Finances can create a problem between them since Leo is extravagant and generous in spending money and this may not be taken well by Taurus who likes to hole up wealth for financial security. Both are very proud and noble creatures in there own right. Their hearts are fiercely loyal to each other. Leo has its famous pride, and Taurus is notoriously stubborn. Taurus often tolerates being dominated by Leo until one day it erupts like a volcano. A strong attraction physically and emotionally but perhaps too many obstacles to hurdle.

An earth and water sign together!  Although earth is compatible with water, these are opposite signs in the zodiac. This relationship (although often results in marriage or other legal contracts) is usually either very good or very bad, with little in between.  It is a relationship of extremes; either hot or cold, together for always, or a final parting. The key for both Scorpio and Taurus, in this relationship, is to learn temper control.  They have a few strikes against them in the form of rigidity, jealousy, and suspicion. This pairing believes in hard work, unquestioned loyalty and power of mind, body and spirit. This combination mutually admires each other. With a strong sexual urge both will find much in common. Jealousy however is the big problem with this pair and seems to be always showing its face. Taurus must be careful to keep faith with the scorpion mate, or the house will fall down without warning. Beware to the one, who crosses the scorpion's path, the sting is considered deadly. On the astrological wheel, they are opposite each other. Opposites really do attract. Taurus and Scorpio tend to be intensely passionate at first, but both love to control. Scorpio is secretive, needs challenge, and loves to spend huge amounts of time alone. The opposite, Taurus, needs security. They are sophisticated with entertaining and communication. This pair can be the perfect match or the worst warriors.

An earth and fire sign together but still they are very different in nature. Taurus is one of the stable signs & its desire to stay put & possess loved one may be at odd with the Sagittarian desire to feel free & independent. While their relationship may not be a volcano about to explode, they will have a lifetime made up of a nice balance of qualities bringing tenderness, caring, honesty, and strong family life. Taurus will not change their pace, so it is up to the Sagittarius to slow down their frenzied pace. The clever Sagittarius may be just diplomatic enough to do this. But beware, there is the potential for lots of friction here, and this relationship may not be very peaceful. These are two very different personality types, with like character traits. The more reserved Taurus and the outgoing Sagittarius both have an appreciation for the truth, while Sagittarius is less tactful about divulging it. Taurus will have difficulty with the Sagittarian need to be on the go however and Sagittarius will not want to sit and admire things with Taurus for too long With some understanding they can find harmony in their characters as long as they allow each other their personalities. Together, Taurus and Sagittarius attract others-along with their problems.  The two could make a good counseling team. Be prepared for a lot of compromises. The combination of Venus (Taurus) and Jupiter (Sagittarius) is pleasant, and could result in beauty and profit.

An earth and air sign together. Earth &  air  little in common in this combination of two extremely determined signs, which basically are separate in nature. They will have to work hard to have a good life together! Aquarius finds it much easier to dream castles than to build them, but the wise Taurus will encourage the strength that lies just beneath the surface. These two are very different. Aquarius hates routine and is always ready for new experiences, which make his/her Taurus very insecure. This combination heads in for many difficulties. The Aquarian being unpredictable may prove too much for the easygoing Taurus nature. The conservative habits of the Taurean will soon get on the nerves of the dynamic Aquarius and the tempers will start to fly. Both love ease and comfort but their views on how to obtain them are very different. Another big irritation for the Taurus lover is the unwillingness of the Aquarius to share his secrets. Both are very creative and share a common thread, which is their patience. They may need to make compromises & meet half way to make a go of this relationship. This relationship requires discipline before it is to succeed. If their moon and rising signs are compatible, this relationship has a chance to last

An earth and water sign combination is very compatible. Lots of friendship, affection or love can be shared. These two can share a great deal of their appreciation for beauty, art, sensuality and just about any of the finer things in life. They both are sensual, love to eat, drink and help others .Pisces is easily clouded by emotion but can be brought to reality by Taurus' down to earth nature. Taurus can be helped to dream by the Piscean personality. Lots of good stuff, but watch the emotions. Usually they will have a comfortable, stable life together while dreaming of what could have been might have been, if only... It's not too late to interject some sizzle into their relationship. If the Pisces is not too big a dreamer... this will be a sweet and happy relationship. Taurus must bring forth its practibility; otherwise it will find itself living in a dream world with Pisces.  Taurus provides grounding and solidarity to the Pisces who is usually swimming around dreamily in the world of illusion. A Good clear communication & friendship can resolve all problems in this relationship. Co-operation is an essential ingredient. Without it , it is “no –go “.
