The Taurus-Cancer affiliation tends to be a happy one due to this mutual
enjoyment of the security and comfort of home. They love a solid home base, a
strong relationship, nice possessions, good food: all the comforts of domestic
life. Theirs is often the ideal family that people of other Signs strive for,
with strong ties between them and a relationship that is family-oriented rather
than toward the outside world. Their only major problems arise when Taurus
insists on having its own way and Cancer responds by sulking. Taurus must
understand Cancer's emotional sensitivity, and Cancer needs rely on open, honest
communication than on emotional blackmail. If you can give a Taurus security,
beauty, nature and pleasure you have a better chance of getting their love and
affection. If you can give a Cancer emotional commitment and security, a loving
home and some care for children, you have a better chance of getting their love
and affection.
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 verbalizing or complex fantasizing
is not really Taurus's thing. Music or other forms of sensual, non-verbal
expression will strike a chord in the Taurean nature.
Taurus likes to touch nice things, own nice things, wear nice things, eat nice
things and have nice things. For Taurus touch or the physical world is real and
gives comfort. On the other hand, Cancer is a good person who needs to deal with
family and emotional issues. Cancer's hugs are world class and Cancer's snuggles
are second to none. Cancer is naturally inclined to be touchy about some, but
not all relatives and needs to work on the family tree and make some sense of it
all.
Essentially, Taurus needs to be assured that everything's O.K., safe and secure.
Once that's taken care of Taurus is ready for gracious living. That is to say,
Taurus needs some good food, antique furniture and passionate sex.
When Taurus and Cancer come together, it's usually a very good amalgamation.
They are two positions apart within the Zodiac, and such Signs tend to share
karmic ties and a deep mutual understanding. These particular two Signs have
much in common: Both prize security in a love relationship above almost all
else; both tend to be nurturers (Cancer is emotionally nurturing while Taurus
loves to spoil their lover with sensual delights, gifts and good, rich meals).
They're both quite domestic and love a quiet night spent at home with their
sweetie. Cancer has moods that change about four times a day, every two and a
half days, every month and every 18 or 19 years. Cancer needs to make the most
of these cycles, and establish goals with corresponding deadlines. It s crucial
for Taurus to be considerate of Cancer's changing moods. 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
interfering. 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.It
is important that Taurus acquire some mastery over the physical, practical and
earthly world. Then, paradoxically, Taurus must learn to let go. Taurus will
only find security by acquiring a sense of self that is separate from
possessions. Taurus is ruled by Venus (Love) and Cancer is ruled by the Moon
(Emotions). Both of these celestial bodies vibrate with feminine energy. Cancer
often keeps emotions bottled up and simmering inside, which can lead to
occasional boil-over. Cancer is attracted to Taurus's open, honest, unafraid
nature. As the Moon controls the tides of the Earth, quietly affecting all life,
so does Cancer, manipulating behind the scenes. Cancer tends to be sentimental,
and both partners prefer to enjoy each other rather than socializing with large
groups.
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!
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. Cancer is not necessarily the most direct individual. Security is
something Cancer is always aware of. Usually it's a top priority. Cancer is
definitely strong and protective of turf. 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.
