When Taurus and Leo come together in a love 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.
These
two Signs both love status and possessions. They prize physical comfort
and luxury; 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.
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.
Taurus is an Earth Sign and Leo is a Fire Sign. They are both
ambitious but in quite different ways. Leo longs for fame and fortune,
while Taurus strives for security and stability in life and love. Since
both these Signs expect to be the boss, they may tend to battle for
domination. During arguments, Taurus abhors conceding a point, seeing
it
as acceptance of domination -- unless they see that it's the practical
course. Their battles can be fierce and epic, but as long as both of
them can be reassured that the relationship is important to their
partner, things will go more smoothly.
Taurus and Leo are both
Fixed Signs. This means they're both stubborn; once they make up their
minds about something, it takes a lot to get them to change it. That's
why their arguments can get so intense -- both of them truly believe
they're right and that theirs is the only right way to look at an
issue! They also both tend to shy away from change; they like to get
things settled and then let them continue on as is indefinitely -- even
if something could be improved. If they decide that they want their
love
relationship to stay, almost nothing will convince them to leave their
partner. This is good for the stability of the relationship but can be
bad if the relationship is destructive or inhibitive.
What's
the
best aspect of the Taurus-Leo relationship? Their mutual admiration.
Both Signs have very powerful personalities, so neither will dominate
the other -- no matter how hard they try! Others see them as an
excellent match as they share the commitment to fulfilling their
goals.
