Taurus and Scorpio compatibility
Straight across the wheel: what I have, and what we share.
Taurus: April 20 – May 20. Scorpio: October 23 – November 21.
Are Taurus and Scorpio a good match?
Tradition calls it a magnetic match and a demanding one. It works when you stop arguing about which end of the rope is the right one.
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
This is one of the great pulls in astrology. Both of you are loyal, both are possessive, both are unmoving, and the attraction tends to be physical and deep. Taurus keeps it grounded and Scorpio keeps it honest.
The hard part
Two fixed signs across a table. Taurus shuts down and Scorpio digs in, and neither will be the first to give. Questions of money, trust and who owns what can run this house if you let them.
How your signs sit on the wheel
You sit straight across the wheel from each other, the angle astrologers call an opposition. You move through the world the same way, from opposite ends of one question. This is the strongest pull on the wheel, and also the strongest tug of war.
Earth holds water. One of you gives the other a shore, and the other keeps the ground from going dry. It is one of the most naturally tender combinations there is.
You are both keepers. Neither of you moves easily, which makes for great loyalty, and for silences that can last a season.
What each of you is really asking
Taurus is asking: Can I put my whole weight on you? Taurus brings steadiness and fears being hurried out of what is already good.
Scorpio is asking: Can you bear all of it, and stay? Scorpio brings depth and fears being betrayed after handing over the keys.
The desire under the question
Each of you wants to possess and be possessed. What you are really asking is whether anything can be held this tightly and still breathe.
