Taurus in Love: Slow Burning Sensuality

Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of love, and indeed represents the lover as a mythological archetype. For you, Taurus, compatibility is all about finding someone you can trust as much as you will trust them. Free love compatibility reports will tell you that as a Taurus, the world is your oyster – because, gentle, honest soul that you are, what’s not to love? As a Taurean, you are patient, kind, warm-hearted and exceptionally loyal and faithful. A true salt of the earth type, you love to love, but emotional stability is crucial for your happiness.

Not one to fall in love at the drop of a hat, you take your time in starting a relationship, savouring the courtship and the anticipation even before you actually get together. You don’t rush your decisions, so when you do decide to hook up with a partner, they can be sure that you’ve thought through your feelings and that you’re pretty certain of your Taurus compatibility with them. Certain enough to take a risk, at least, which from safety and security loving Taurus is a compliment indeed.

Once in a relationship, the lucky lover of a Taurus will enjoy lots of sensuality and affection, and will be showered with gifts and treats – you do like to spoil your partners, even when you can’t really afford to. As an earth sign, sex is important to your relationship, so Taurus compatibility is affected by whether or not another sign can match your appetite in the bedroom…but matching your appetite for the good life is almost as important. You love the finer things in life, so this will be a relationship founded in luxury and comfort.

As an ambitious and career minded Taurus, your best relationships will have an underlying pragmatic base. You’re definitely the power behind your partner’s success, while still managing to turbo charge your own rise to fame at the same time. You’re a hands-on, practical person and you will get things done by hook or by crook; anyone hoping for Taurus compatibility can be safe in the knowledge that you will always, totally, utterly support their goals.

It’s not all placid contentment when a Taurus falls in love, though. When the bull gets angry, we’d all better get out of the way. And what is the biggest threat to Taurus compatibility in relationships? Jealousy, closely followed by its snarky cousin, possessiveness. When you love, you don’t just love, you possess. You own. You demand total fidelity – which is actually quite reasonable, considering that’s what you’re giving in return. If you find your lover flirting with someone else, or spending too much time with their family, your resentful nature will kick in long before anyone can wave the proverbial red rag to the bull.

Stubbornness and self-indulgence can also prove challenging for anyone in love with a Taurus. Your sign is legendary for its cut-off-the-nose-to-spite-the-face intransigence, which can be a nightmare for an action loving, decisive or cardinal sign. Fire signs in a relationship with a Taurus can find the affair a bit like wading through treacle – sticky, slow and not necessarily all that sweet tasting. Likewise, air signs can be simply too flighty for your tastes, flitting from one interest to the next at the kind of breakneck speed you probably think should be made illegal. Taurus compatibility works best with fellow earth signs, or with gentle, emotional water signs who bring out your protective instincts.

Taurus is a complex zodiac sign, and although free love compatibility reports can give you a flavour of your relationship potential, your best bet is to try a full star sign compatibility report from Astromatcha, which will give you unique insights into your relationship based on the full birth charts of both partners. There are plenty of ways to minimise your jealousy and possessiveness and to help keep a relationship on track if you know the secrets to Taurus compatibility.

After all, what both partners really want in a relationship is fidelity, strength, passion, friendship and warmth, all of which you as a Taurus can offer in abundance to whichever other lucky zodiac sign catches your eye. Even as stubborn as you are, for Taurus, compatibility doesn’t have to mean subduing your natural personality. Choose the right partner, and your terrific personality can shine through in all of its glory.
