Taurus and Libra
Earth meets air · Two Venus signs
Taurus and Libra share Venus as their ruler: both love beauty, harmony and enjoyment. Taurus experiences them with the senses, Libra with an eye for balance. An aesthetic, friendly combination with different degrees of groundedness.
First encounter
Two Venus signs usually find each other pleasant. Libra values the calm and substance of Taurus, Taurus values Libra's charm and manners. The first encounter is cultivated – a good meal, a beautiful place, a conversation without rough edges. Libra seeks balance, Taurus seeks well-being, and both are to be found near the other. What Taurus only notices later: Libra needs more exchange than comes naturally to Taurus.
What unites them
A love of beauty is their common denominator – art, music, interiors, enjoyment. Both avoid arguments and value peace, both are faithful and considerate. Taurus gives Libra the decisiveness Libra lacks, and a place where they don't have to weigh everything up all the time; Libra gives Taurus social ease and an eye for other people. Together they like living comfortably and looking after what they have.
Where it rubs
Libra wants to talk and weigh things up, Taurus wants to decide and have peace. Taurus experiences Libra as indecisive and sociable to the point of superficiality; Libra experiences Taurus as stubborn and uncommunicative. Both avoid conflict – Taurus through silence, Libra through friendliness – and so some things go unsaid for a long time. The translation: Libra names their needs clearly, Taurus engages in conversations even when they don't have to “solve” anything.
