When Taurus and Gemini come together in a love affair,
they must both take the time to learn what the dynamics of the
relationship are and how they can best get along. They both have much
to
offer one another and much to learn in this relationship, but it will
take a bit of adjustment and effort on both sides. Gemini's Symbol is
the Twins; this Sign can often be of two minds about things. If
possessive Taurus is able to let go and give one Twin the relationship
security and intimacy it wants while allowing the other Twin its
freedom, things will go well between these two. Taurus may want too
much
for Gemini's taste early in the relationship, but Gemini can become
dependable and steady -- Taurus must simply be patient.
Taurus's
sedate, practical approach to life differs greatly from Gemini's more
light, intellectual approach. This can be a difficult dynamic, since
Gemini may see Taurus as a bit dull while Taurus may see Gemini as
flighty and lacking in substance. They have much to teach one another,
however: Taurus can help Gemini become more deeply involved in life;
Gemini can help Taurus add variety, fun and excitement to their life.
Taurus is ruled by the Planet Venus (Love) and Gemini is ruled
by
the Planet Mercury (Communication). Since both of these Planets are
close to the Sun, they're always in the same neighborhood even though
they're very different. Venus is all about physical pleasures, romance
and sensuality. Mercury has both masculine and feminine energy, and
Gemini takes on whichever energy best serves at any given moment.
Taurus
is just looking for a dependable, sensual partner, so Gemini's
brilliance may be lost on the Bull. This may be trouble, since Geminis
often feel like their quick wits are the most important thing about
themselves. The good thing is, Gemini is smart enough to learn to be
the
romantic, sensual partner that Taurus craves.
Taurus is an Earth
Sign and Gemini is an Air Sign. Gemini makes decisions based on
intellect (and whim), while Taurus is more practical. Taurus asks, "How
will this help me achieve my goals in life?" while Gemini goes with the
moment, never feeling too pressured to stick to a set plan. If Taurus
gives in to those Bullish possessive feelings, or if Gemini is aloof
and
detached (as they often are), this relationship may suffer. Both Signs
must strive to stay open and flexible in order to make this union work.
Though Gemini seems unpredictable, Taurus can learn to understand that
although Gemini may flirt, the relationship is still important to them.
And though Taurus seems overly stubborn, Gemini must use their
flexibility to bend to their partner's will on occasion.
Taurus
is a Fixed Sign and Gemini is a Mutable Sign. Taurus tends to focus on
one thing, person, idea at a time, while Gemini moves from one thing
(or
person) to the next according to impulse. Taurus must provide Gemini
with ample independence and breathing space -- and try to learn
Gemini's lesson, that versatility is sometimes better than a Fixed
determination to do things one's own way.
What's the best
aspect of the Taurus-Gemini relationship? The security the two can give
each other once Taurus allows Gemini to offer that security freely. As
long as both partners communicate with each other, theirs will be a
stable and happy relationship.
