These two Signs both love status and possessions. They prize physical comfort
and lavishness; Leo is often flamboyant about attentions and gift-giving, which
will greatly please Taurus, who loves the most traditional forms of courtship.
Though they can work together quite well, it's not all roses between these two;
both Signs are very stubborn and must work hard to understand and accept one
another. 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 Leo
sincere admiration and applause then you have a better chance of getting their
love and affection.
When Taurus and Leo get together in an affair, they can be a great couple
because they know how to stroke one another's egos and love to have their own
stroked! They have similar needs: Taurus needs plenty of affection, to be loved
and cherished, while Leo likes compliments and wants to be adored and admired.
They're both extremely loyal and possessive lovers. Since they have such similar
desires, they can generally provide for one another's needs quite well. For each
of you, the force of habit is strong. More than likely, you're determined,
purposeful and unrelenting. This relationship is a test of wills. Neither one of
you is easily pushed, pulled or pressured. Once you commit to each other, this
relationship can become steady, stable and a powerhouse. Stand firm on the
conviction that you are working to overcome inertia together.
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.
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. At heart, Leo is practically perfect. The ancients have said that
Leo is entitled to the Lion's share of fun. Leo needs to roar with pride, both
on centre stage and in the bedroom.
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. To win
points, Taurus can treat Leo to a most excellent piece of gold jewellery. Leo
also appreciates Taurus's undivided attention. 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 volatile 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.
By developing willpower, Leo can find creative ways to get into the spotlight
and shine. Leo may be playing the game of life stakes higher than Taurus may
realize. 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 the Planet Venus (Love and Money) and Leo
is ruled by the Sun (Self). The Sun radiates warmth and light; Leo indeed
radiates this kind of energy and enthusiasm. Venus is about love, beauty and
luxury. This combination of masculine and feminine energy helps these two Signs
admire and sustain one another. As a matter of fact, Venus is never more than 48
degrees from the Sun, so they belong close together! The Sun represents life and
Venus represents love; as long as they are careful to understand each other,
their combination is a positive one.
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 tenacity! 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. 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.
