Aries and Taurus compatibility
The fire who cannot wait, and the one who has never once been rushed.
Aries: March 21 – April 19. Taurus: April 20 – May 20.
Are Aries and Taurus a good match?
It is rarely the easy match, and often the educating one. It holds when each of you stops treating the other as a correction.
I will not hand you a percentage. A number like that is invented, and a Sun sign is one line of a long letter. Two people of any signs can love each other well.
What draws you together
Aries brings the spark Taurus quietly misses, and Taurus offers the first place Aries has ever wanted to stay. There is real heat in it. Taurus is more sensual than Aries expects, and Aries is more loyal than Taurus assumes.
The hard part
Aries reads patience as refusal. Taurus reads urgency as disrespect. The same argument about timing can come back wearing a dozen different costumes.
How your signs sit on the wheel
You sit side by side on the wheel, with no element and no way of moving in common. Older astrology calls this a thirty-degree relationship and says little good about it. In practice, each neighbor holds what the other has just left behind or has not yet reached.
Fire and earth want different things from a day. Fire wants to go and earth wants to have arrived. Fire can warm the ground or scorch it, and earth can hold a flame or smother it.
One of you starts things and the other keeps them. That is a working partnership, as long as neither mistakes it for a contest of wills.
What each of you is really asking
Aries is asking: Will you still want me when I stop running at you? Aries brings nerve and fears being slowed down until the fire goes out.
Taurus is asking: Can I put my whole weight on you? Taurus brings steadiness and fears being hurried out of what is already good.
The desire under the question
Each of you wants to know the other will not try to change your clock. Under that is a softer thing: Aries wants to be waited for, and Taurus wants to be worth slowing down for.
