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. 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
Scorpio loyalty, control and deep understanding you have a better chance of
getting their love and affection. Taurus and Scorpio both have deep desires,
Taurus for possessions and Scorpio for power. They're both concerned with
affluence and possessions, and they're both intensely passionate about all sorts
of things. Taurus is a bit more self-focused than Scorpio, who is more concerned
with their lover and immediate family. Both of these Signs have a great,
deep-rooted need for security in a relationship, but with slightly different
focuses. While Taurus prizes honesty and forthrightness and abhors infidelity,
Scorpio loves to be mysterious. A Scorpio's need for security is more about the
need to be constantly reassured that their emotional connection with their loved
one is strong. The good thing is, Taurus needs this reassurance too, and is also
willing to provide it for their Scorpio lover.
For each of you, the force of habit is strong. More than likely, you're both
determined, purposeful and persistent. 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. 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. Scorpio is a strong individual, an extremely good friend, a formidable
enemy, and prone to intense likes and dislikes. Scorpio lives in the world of
black and white. Scorpio has little time for superficial people, places or
things.
Scorpio prefers deep commitment, deep conversation and deep thoughts. If Scorpio
can't tell it like it is, Scorpio prefers to keep quiet. It should be mentioned
that Scorpio has quite a few secrets. Scorpio has forgiveness issues that tend
to make personal relationships challenging. 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.
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. People
whisper about Scorpio's sex life. They dare to include Scorpio in their most
passionate fantasies. 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 Money) and Scorpio is ruled by Mars (Passion)
and Pluto (Power). This combination is very intense, thanks to Pluto's
influence, but it's an excellent balance of masculine and feminine energy.
Scorpio and Taurus together form the basis of all love relationships, love and
passion. Venus and Mars go well together; Venus is about the beauty of romance,
and Mars is about the passion of romance. Scorpio is smouldering and intense
(and intensely sexual), and Taurus, a sensual and tireless lover, is attracted
to this intensity. In turn, Scorpio enjoys the devotion inherent in Venus-ruled
Taurus.
Scorpio has proven the ability to hold on. Scorpio's staying power is second to
none. Now Scorpio needs to learn to let go. Every day Scorpio needs to find
something to sell, give away, throw out or burn. If Scorpio wants to get the
most out of life, Scorpio needs to let go more often. When Taurus and Scorpio
come together in a love affair, their union is nothing if not intense, whether
that's in a positive or a negative way. They are opposite Signs in the Zodiac,
giving them a special, complex connection. They can combine to make a whole,
each partner's strengths balancing the other's weaknesses. Their sexual
attraction is likely to be off the charts! Taurus and Scorpio have tons in
common, but because their personalities are so powerful, they often swing
between passionate love and passionate disagreement!
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
un-evolved 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. 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.
