When Taurus and Aquarius come together in a love match,
they can move mountains -- if they can figure out how to coordinate
their efforts. Taurus's practical, down-to-earth approach to life is
about as opposite as can be to Aquarius's unconventional,
out-of-this-world approach to just about everything! Taurus resists
change and Aquarius is the most progressive of all 12 Signs of the
Zodiac. How do these two get along, then? They may appear to have few
common interests, but they share a very strong desire to succeed --
which means they may make better business partners than lovers.
Since these two can both be extremely opinionated, they must
take
care not to get into arguments, especially because of their dissimilar
reactions to tension: When Taurus gets angry they tend to charge like
the Bulls that they are; when Aquarius feels pressure, they tend to
pull
away, using an aloof demeanor to put space between themselves and their
"tormentor." This can make Taurus push even harder, causing Aquarius to
pull further away . and so on. They like to do things their way with as
little fuss as possible. Modern, progressive Aquarius may find
Taurus's
dedication to routine a bit boring. Taurus will find Aquarius exciting
yet may feel frustrated trying to keep up with this inventor's quick
mind. Despite their differences, however, they do have something to
offer one another. Though Aquarius will have a hard time admitting it
(even to themselves), they'll find Taurus's solid base to be
comfortingly supportive, and Taurus will find Aquarius stimulating, if
not altogether comfortable.
Taurus is ruled by Venus (Love) and
Aquarius is ruled by Saturn (Karma) and Uranus (Rebellion). Venus is a
warm, feminine energy and Saturn a cold masculine energy. Uranus is
about all things strange and unusual. Venus focuses on beauty, romance
and sensual pleasures, all of which are important and pleasing to
Taurus. Saturn causes Aquarius to focus on hard work and discipline to
achieve goals; Uranus lends an Aquarius that revolutionary thinking.
Taurus can show Aquarius that life is based on emotions and improved by
beauty and comfort. Aquarius can show Taurus how to keep striving for
betterment -- and how to move away from something if it isn't working,
an important lesson for Taurus to learn.
Taurus is an Earth Sign
and Aquarius is an Air Sign. Aquarius focuses on intellectual
connections and pursuits while Taurus focuses on more practical and
sensual interests. Where Taurus asks, "How will this help me achieve my
goals in life?" Aquarius asks, "What else?" These two can have trouble
understanding one another; if Taurus clings too closely or if Aquarius
seems too cold and aloof, trouble can erupt. If they operate from a
base
of mutual love and respect, however, these two can grow to understand
how one another works.
Taurus and Aquarius are both Fixed Signs.
They're both stubborn and, once they make up their minds, don't like
to change their viewpoint or opinion. This steadfastness extends to
their personal life: Once they're committed to one another, almost
nothing can make them decide to abandon the relationship. If the
relationship is smooth and mutually beneficial, this is a good thing,
but if the relationship is inhibitive for either or both partners,
their
refusal to admit it should end can seriously hamper both of their
growth
in life. If they realize that working together is more yielding than
butting heads, they will remain productive. Since Taurus tends to be
more practical, they might be the first to back down in an argument --
if they deem it practical to do so.
What's the best aspect of
the Taurus-Aquarius relationship? Their unstoppable team power that is
possible once they clear their path of obstacles. Both Signs have very
powerful personalities, so neither will dominate the other -- no matter
how hard they try! This relationship can be truly exciting and
satisfying once these two Signs work out how it'll work between
them.
