I don't know much. I just know that the opposite end of the zodiac (count 6 from you) is your complementary sign. It's your direct sign so there can be lots of clashes, but it can also be a very good solid thing. Scorpio is a water sign and Taurus is earth (mud!) so it can be really solid or really slippery.

I've had love/lust interests that are scorpio but they didn't stick around. But many of my good solid friendships have been Scorpios.

"greater appreciation of the subtleties of seduction"

WERD! That is so true.


I HATE it, absolutely HATE it when people are obvious.

"I am talking in stereotypes now: people make a big deal about how sexually-charged Scorpios are, but the real leaders in that arena are Tauruses. Scorpios are much more overt about it, which is what makes them seem so silly to me. Tauruses (at least in my experience) have a tremendous appetite, but a greater appreciation of the subtleties of seduction."


totally rings true for me and a scorpio man i've been seeing

I totally agree. My chart itself is kind of made up between the polarity of Taurus and Scorpio – and it seems the one knows exactly how to uproot the other. But they can work in great balance as well.
I get along great with scorpios as friends. Romantically, I'm also instantly drawn to plutonic qualities, but I feel scorpios have a different notion of romance than taureans do and they start getting suspicious if you show you care too much.

this is very, very true. You will find some who display their shadow side more than anything(but you will find this in any sign, we all have our faults)and are very emotionally manipulative, and get off on the empowerment of feeling superior and crushing those beneath them instead of trying to help bring others up. But, and this is what I am drawn to, there are equally as many who have depth and understanding and are just plain above being manipulative, well, for the most part anyway lol

Hey, me too! I was told I "open" with Libra but am a def Scorpio moon and that sometimes leads me to be open at first and then close up about things later.

Or am I repeating myself? Did I already say that?

But yeah - def tugs.

The only times I've fallen for a man instantly were with Scorpios. They were the only ones who could put up with my more extreme moods, and the only ones who understood me implicitly. They were also the ones that let me go without so much as a second thought.

They're like drugs to me: make you feel so good to be so bad for you.

I am a Virgo with an overwhelming amount of Scorpio, and Virgo in my chart. Mainly scorpio.

Let me tell you! Taurus for me is like a magnet. Pure magnet. My blood is drawn to them. And they are drawn to me. Usually I find them turning up around my hangouts and asking me out for lunch. I'm guessing there are many similarities here with this combination. Can't get enough. When I'm with one, it's a wonderful friendship mixed with and intense sex-life.

The sex is the best you'll ever had.

Everything else is torture.

I'm a Scorpio and I lived with a Taurus for many years of my life (my mother), and my current boyfriend is Taurus (I've devoted a whole other thread to trying to figure him and that relationship out).

So, two important close relationships in my life are with Taurus suns (along with some good friends along the way). You do have to take the whole chart into consideration, but I will say that I've experienced quite the battle of wills with both of these Taurus suns! I argue with both of them like no one else, and no other sun sign! Yet, my mother is my absolute best friend in life, and I love her more than anything, and I love my bf too. I simply argue a lot with both of them and, because of that, the two closest relationships I have in my life right now are also very frustrating. It's actually startling how similar the two of them are, and the issues I have with them. There are also many positives that are similar about them.

One of the major issues I've argued with both of them about concerns emotions. They don't understand mine, esp. how intense and complicated they are. I don't understand how they can seem so unemotional, which often appears cold and uncaring to me when I am often just wanting them to empathize with how I am feeling about something. It's a constant problem, but one I've had to learn to accept. They may never understand my emotional storms, we just have to try to work together. It works when they try to accept the emotional storms, even if they don't understand their cause or complexity, try to be a little understanding, and then wait for it to blow over and we can try to talk about any issues that may involve them calmly. For my part, I really, really try to reign in these little emotional storms and upsets as much as possible with them because I know it's not conducive if they can't ride the emotional wave with me, and I try to wait until I can calmly discuss. I'm sure they are as frustrated by my emotional excess as I am frustrated by their lack of such. I think the emotional difference between Taurus and Scorpio may be one of the major ones, but not impossible to live with if both people try to work at accepting the other. (I secretly think I may add a little emotional excitement to both of their lives because these two particular Taureans just are no way, no how, nowhere near as intensely emotional as me, and it may add a different dimension to their lives, even if it also adds a little upset.)

Even if the seeming lack of emotion frustrates me, one of the things I love most about both of them is their strength and stability. I think one of the powerful draws between Taurus and Scorpio is that they supposedly equal each other in their strength. Maybe this has to do with the powerful wills and stubbornness of both signs. I find this to be very true. There are often times I will feel I'm stronger than someone else (even though I certainly don't come as such) on some level, but not with these two. What makes it even better is that I think our types of strength might be different, and complementary, even if equal.

One thing I will point out that relates to both the emotional and strength issues, is that I feel that I am also more emotionally vulnerable than both of them. Though I do think I am as strong as both of them (in the big picture), I feel like I am much more of a 'softie', much more sensitive, and also more sentimental and affectionate. With both of them, I definitely am more touchy-feely in expressing affection. That's why I so love their strength and stability--my soft side feels like it has someone to lean on (they are both unemotional like rocks, but I can also lean on them like rocks). Though I feel that I am an incredibly strong person that can probably get through just about anything in life, if needed, I love letting down my guard with them and letting the soft, sensitive, vulnerable me come out. In some ways, they are like shelters in a storm for me, even though I know I could very well survive the storm without them if needed. (I'm sure they forget the soft, vulnerable side of me when engaged in full-on battle about something, until the storm clouds clear and that side comes out again). Someone above said they prefer 'softer' water signs of Pisces and Cancer. I see their point a little, but I think that Scorpio in many ways can be even softer than those two signs, or at least equal, but we do have that other more stubborn, intensely emotional side to contend with too.

Another thing I love about Taurus is that there is a certain sense of seriousness about life, even if it may have a slightly different focus then my own (mine maybe more focused on the emotional and psychological and theirs on finances, practical planning, etc.). I've never been frustrated by any superficial behavior with either of them. I also really love their practicality and pragmatism, though it can also be annoying--the boyfriend doesn't believe in cards or flowers, though he (I think somehow begrudgingly) gave them to me once; he's probably more likely to give vitamins or something practical, if he remembers an important day at all.

All in all, I think the Scorpio-Taurus match is great, but there will likely be some arguing (I've never fought with Taurus friends, though), clashes of wills and adjustments to each other's extremely different emotional natures. However, I think the goods outweigh the bads (no matter the outcome of my current relationship). The two signs complement each other because they give each other something the other doesn't have (they give me the stability and practicality that can pull me out of a world often consumed by too much intense emotion and psychological analysis, and I give them a taste of a world through that emotional/ psychological lens). The sense of security is also fantastic.

I've also read that the Taurus can teach the Scorpio that a spade is sometimes just a spade and that the Scorpio can teach the Taurus that there is sometimes more than meets the eye in some situations. This is very true! I think Taurus-Scorpio is a great match!

Oh my god!! Scorpios are like a drug!! It's definitely a love/hate thing going on! My last two boyfriends were Scorpios. One with moon in Cancer and Gemini rising, the other Pisces Moon with Libra rising. The sex the was best I ever had with the one with Moon in Cancer. But the Pisces Moon the sex sucked! I love Scorpios! But I notice that recently I am sick of them. Too much drama and fighting involved, and sometimes physical abuse.

And it is true, Taurus is far more sexual than Scorpio. I'm a Taurus with also Taurus Venus and Jupiter. We do understand the subtleties and sensuality. I think we have a higher sex drive too... ready to do it at anytime! But that tends to be more common with Venus in Taurus. The worst thing about Scorpios, they will "punish" you by not giving you sex.

However, with my Libra Moon and Rising, I have noticed that I am more instantly attracted to Aries. But Aries or Scorpio are usually the ones I'm sexually attracted to. I find myself very sexually attracted to Taurus men too! Sometimes more so than to Scorpios or Aries!

Both being fixed signs, you better believe both will stand their ground! That's why, IMHO, astrology is so useful, it can point things like this out so people have a chance to understand each other and work on learning to be a little less stubborn/fixed and to give in once in a while for the person you love!

Love/Hate relationships can be the most exciting of them all, but they are the type that you have to know what you are getting into beforehand otherwise you might be in for a nasty shock when the gloves come off, ahah!

my best friend is a scorpio! i always feel like we have the same mind.. we think and say the same things! ha. we have so much fun together and have so much in common. i can rely on her 100% and i can have deep conversations with her all the time. im also scorpio rising.

Bleh, I feel iffy saying superglue. Being a Taurus (I guess), keeps me from committing just yet. I really love her, but I'm a little slow on that kinda stuff...

Congratulations. May your love continue to grow and deepen. I have dated a couple of Scorpio women and they have been among the warmest, sweetest women I have known.
