Taurus is a sensual, physical zodiac sign and sex is deeply important to Taurus and is a key part of their romantic relationships. They aren’t the type of sign to have one-night stands or casual hook-ups with many different people. They prefer to sleep with people that they’re dating, or at least friends with. Like in all aspects of life, Taurus needs to take their time.
Foreplay is a key part of Taurus’ lovemaking style and they usually enjoy foreplay just as much (if not more) than the actual sex itself. They enjoy exploring, feeling, and tasting their lover, seeing what turns them on. They like to please and be pleased in return, working very hard to make their lover completely satisfied. Taurus enjoys to give and receive massages, and love having their neck kissed, sucked, and have little “love bites” on them.
They also enjoy food as aphrodisiacs and usually get in the mood after eating oysters, chocolate, or strawberries. Thanks to their natural stamina, Taurus can make love all night without getting tired. Afterward, Taurus enjoys a lot of cuddling, spooning, and maybe ordering some takeout.
Taurus is a zodiac sign of few words when it comes to love. They aren’t usually the type to write long, flowery love letters, or emotional captions on Instagram. In fact, they probably won’t use a lot of words, period. Taurus has a blunt, sometimes sarcastic way of speaking that isn’t the most romantic. In fact, being too honest might kill the mood. It’s just not their strong suit. So, when courting a Taurus, do not expect to be swept off your feet by what they say. Instead, pay more attention to what they do to woo you.
The language that Taurus speak fluently is body language. Taurus natives are very affectionate, preferring to show their interest and their love with physical touches. In courting, Taurus will take any opportunity to touch their love interest. A lingering touch when handing them something, high-fives, long hugs, fixing someone’s tie or scarf, putting their arm around someone’s shoulder are all ways Taurus show they’re interested.
While any sign pairing can make a relationship work with communication, mutual respect, and a lot of love (and looking at a person’s complete birth chart), some zodiac signs just don’t connect. Here are the signs that aren’t Taurus’ perfect match.
Aquarius: Conservative, business-minded, and stubborn, Taurus clashes with Aquarius’ unconventional free-spirit, vivaciousness, and overall free-spirit vibe. Aquarius may be disgusted with Taurus’ materialistic lifestyle, while Taurus doesn’t understand Aquarius’ fancy-free view of the world. Taurus is more physical while Aquarius gets their pleasures from more mental foreplay.
Gemini: Taurus is slow and steady while Gemini practically bounces off the walls with energy. Taurus is a fixed sign: stable, consistent, persistent while Gemini is a mutable sign: flexible, changeable, and full of energy. At first, Gemini is drawn to Taurus’ passion and sensuality in the bedroom, but may eventually get bored with Taurus’ unchanging routine. Gemini needs constant changes to be happy.
Sagittarius: Sagittarius craves adventure, Taurus craves security. Sagittarius suggests backpacking through South America, Taurus suggest a luxury resort. Sagittarius can be easily board by Taurus’ solid routine and serious nature when it comes to relationship. Meanwhile, Taurus will never be able to trust Sagittarius’ wandering eye. It’s just too much drama!
In the beginning… Taurus is picky when it comes to love and romance. Taurus natives would rather be single for years than waste their time casually dating or being in a string of dead-end relationships. They are serial monogamists. So, if a Taurus agrees to go on a date with you, it’s a big compliment.
When things are going well… This is where we see Taurus’ affectionate, playful, and sensual sides come out. They love having sex and once they are locked into a committed relationship, they want to get physical all the time. Taurus is a love machine who only has eyes for their partner. Taurus is already making plans for a wonderful life with their honey.
When things are on the rocks… Taurus values security above all else. They would never risk a stable relationship, built on a solid foundation just for some fling. Once a Taurus’ trust is broken, they are done forever. A Taurus doesn’t forgive or forget. If their relationship becomes unstable and volatile, a Taurus may leave for the arms of someone more steady, for their own safety.
While any zodiac sign can be a great pairing depending on chemistry and mutual respect, some signs are better suited than others. Here are the zodiac signs that best match with Taurus.
Cancer: A Taurus and Cancer pairing is a love written in the stars. They are both homebodies, sentimentalists, very affectionate, and have high sex drives. This pairing shares a desire for stability and security. Monogamists, these two couldn’t even think of cheating. They are fiercely loyal by nature.
Virgo: Two earth signs almost always make a great match (even if they are not the most exciting couple ever). Both signs are home-lovers, practical, down-to-earth, and share a love of quality time together. Taurus’ passionate, sensual nature can light a spark in the analytical and reserved Virgo.
Pisces: This is a highly sensual and romantic couple. This couple is drawn together because of their passion for creativity, taste for the finer things in life, and aversion to drama. Taurus and Pisces are a very Netflix and chill couple.
No one is perfect, not even our favorite Bull. While Taurus has some lovely qualities, here are a few areas they could improve on.
Stubborn: Hey, they don’t call it being “bullheaded” for nothing. Determined, persistent, and tenaciousness—all are nice ways to phrase Taurus’ most defining trait. When you think of Taurus, the first word that comes to mind is stubborn—and to the bone.
Possessive: Because of their dominant personality, their stubbornness, and their need to be secure, Taurus natives can be very possessive of both objects and people. Ruled by the second house of possessions, Taurus likes to own things and never quite gets the hang of “sharing is caring.”
Materialistic: Ruled by the planet Venus, Taurus has the desire to have the best of everything, and to show it off. For a Taurus, success is measured by what you own, and how much money you make.
Overindulgent: There really can be “too much of a good thing,” as Taurus natives are likely to learn when they take “treat yourself” a little too far. Balance is key for them, and they can easily become lazy if they don’t keep busy.
Predictable: With their love of stability, routine, and their intolerance for change, Taurus are pretty predictable. Once they found their signature style, they are unlikely to stray from it.
Taurus is ruled by the second house—the house of possessions and value. It is the house of ownership: not just of material objects, but ownerships of abilities, needs, wants, and our inner selves. The second house is a master of its own destiny. The second house also has a special focus on money. When we look at the second house in our individual birth chart, this is where we see our spending habits and our attachments to material goods. The second house focuses on income, personal resources, and value. This is the house that asks us the question: What do you value?
Because Taurus is ruled by the house of possessions, the zodiac sign has a reputation of being materialistic, greedy, and possessive. While it’s true that Taurus have their “mind on their money and money on their mind,” their need for money and possessions is actually fed by the need to feel safe. Money might not be able to buy happiness, but for Taurus, money can buy stability. They can control their destiny if they can control their financial situation.
Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and money. It’s far to say that Taurus has a certain love of luxury. “Treat yourself” is a phrase that comes up often with Taurus because they just like nice things: top-shelf liquors, designer brands, high-end cosmetics, and more. However, Taurus do not buy things for the sake of buying.
Given their earthy sensibilities, they will only spend money on the things that are worth it. They’ll buy an expensive jacket if they believe it’s going to last for years. They’ll buy a massive house if they believe they will live there for the rest of their lives. To a Taurus, buying luxury items is “investing,” and if you’re going to spend the money anyway, you might as well get the best.
Venus is also where Taurus natives get their excellent tastes—both with material objects and people. Taurus have a great eye for quality and love collecting things like art. They never leave the house without a full outfit on. They also have an eye for people and can see right through others’ bullsh*t. Taurus only have a few close friends that they value deeply and will shower with gifts and comfort—and they expect the same in return.
Taurus is represented by the Hierophant, the fifth Major Arcana card. Also known as “The Pope,” the Hierophant typically displays a male figure holding a Papal cross while sitting on a throne. While in newer tarot decks, the cross could be symbolized in other ways, it ultimately indicates his religious stature and his access to deep spiritual knowledge. The two pillars on either side of him symbolize the polarity of spirituality: having faith in the heavens while also being grounded here on earth.
With this divide, one of the things this tarot card teaches Taurus is to appreciate the comforts of things seen and unseen. It’s no doubt Taurus has a tendency toward materialism, and the Hierophant teaches the idea that true happiness comes from the heart and not material things.
Numerology and astrology are closely connected to each other. Just like ruling planet, houses, and elements, numerology has their own special influence on each zodiac sign. Each planetary body is linked to a single-digit number. Taurus is ruled by Venus, which in numerology, is associated with the number six.
Six is the “mom” of numerology, the parental figure. Six brings the balance between the earth and the spiritual realm. There is a sense of harmony around this number. They just want everyone to get along and be nice. Like a true parent, they are not afraid to break up a few fights and threaten to “turn this car around.” People who are associated with the number six are nurturing, kind, and understanding. They are utterly devoted to those they love and will move mountains for them. They also give great advice.
