When Taurus and Capricorn come together in a love
match, it's a practical, sensible partnership. These two Signs share a
certain down-to-earth logic and interest in efficiency. Taurus is not
interested in risking more than is necessary in terms of emotional
connection and involvement, and Capricorn is similarly disinterested in
risk, but more in terms of money and career. Capricorn's career is one
of the great focuses of their lives; they're interested in scaling the
heights and tend to set very high standards for themselves to adhere
to.
Taurus has high standards as well, but regarding love, relationships
and
possessions.
These two Signs admire one another's dedication
and
strength, but, while they have this in common as well as a dependable,
realistic, somewhat conservative approach to life (Capricorn more than
Taurus), a love relationship between them can go stale fast. The
problem? They're actually rather different at their cores. Taurus may
begin to find Capricorn too conservative and restrictive; Capricorn may
start to think Taurus is too lazy and doesn't care enough about career
and status. If Taurus can encourage Capricorn to relax a little and
appreciate the fruits of labor, and if Capricorn can help motivate
Taurus to achieve goals and make dreams a reality, their union can be
smooth, happy and long-lasting.
Taurus is ruled by Venus (Love)
and Capricorn is ruled by Saturn (Karma). Venus is a warm, feminine
energy while Saturn is a cold masculine energy. Venus is all about
sensual pleasures, the aesthetics of love, the beauty of art. All of
these stimulate Taurus and heighten their appreciation of life and
love.
Saturn, on the other hand, is about hard work and discipline to achieve
goals. Taurus will show Capricorn how to enjoy a well-deserved break
every so often and how to appreciate beauty and comfort. Capricorn can
teach Taurus to be more disciplined and to keep reaching out for what
one wants.
Taurus and Capricorn are both Earth Signs. This
couple
loves to indulge in material possessions. They want to possess and be
surrounded by beautiful things -- a lovely home, designer clothing,
luxurious cars, works of art. Since they're both such hard workers,
they can usually attain all these things, and hardly ever need fight
about impracticality or overindulgence.
Taurus is a Fixed Sign
and Capricorn is a Cardinal Sign. Taureans won't change their minds
once they're made up. They possess a quiet, steadfast determination.
Instead of finding this dull or restrictive, Capricorn regards it as a
good, comforting thing: Taurus is clearly dedicated to the
relationship.
What's the best aspect of the Taurus-Capricorn relationship?
The
similarity of their values and their dedication to the same goals. Both
partners enjoy luxury and nice things, and they share resources well.
Their mutual interests make theirs a highly compatible
relationship.
