Taurus - Leo

topic posted Thu, February 16, 2006 - 2:55 PM by  Pumpkin Queen
I'm still trying to figure out the Taurus/Leo thing. I have a Leo sister and a Leo friend of the opposite sex and I seem to have communication problems with both of them on a regular basis. Any hints?

    Ha i just ended things with a Leo because he couldn't communicate with me. I don't understand what it is about them.

      Leos are hot!
      ... and also emotionally unavailable. :-)

          Sorry new here, but I have to share...

          I think it might be the rising sign that helps us relate. I am a Taurus/ Leo rising and my hubby is a Leo/Taurus rising. I think it is ego (read as cockiness)that helps pull me out of my stubborn streaks. I find that when he is at his most egotistical that he amuses me the most.

          Maybe it's just that we are mirror images astrologically speaking.

            I'm also a Taurus/Leo Rising... and I find my rising sign (and moon in aries) such an exhausting combination. my own drama exhausts me! but i feel much more intensely and passionately than my sun sign can handle :S

              Its a small world after all - Taurus Sun/ Leo Rising and Moon Aries, just like me!

              Intensity and passion, roger that. Its a pain sometimes, esp when I'm having a conversation with friends sometimes too much intensity and passion.

      I am a leo girl (venus in leo & mars in gemini) that is falling for a taurus male (venus in gemini & mars in pisces). After dating an unpredictable and undependable sag for over a year, when I met Troy (the taurus) it was like the stability and even-keel I was looking for was totally there! We have a lot in common, are both somewhat stubborn but fiercely loyal. We do communicate differently, and I'm always afraid that I'm saying too much, or being too forward, as I don't want to turn him off. So far we definitely hit it off and have been "hanging out" for about 7 or 8 weeks now. I'm crazy about him but don't know how to open the door to the possibility of more LOL you know, the possibility of dating or dating exclusively.....he has said that he is emotionally unavailable, although I know he feels on a very deep level. Comments?? Suggestions?? Help! He is one of the most incredible guys I've ever met!

        Jenna,

        Your bull interest said he is emotionally unavailable, having feelings on a deep level can be a burden, and an old emotional wound could still be affecting him. From my own personality, reasons for being emotionally unavaliable could be any one or more of the following:

        1) I tend to hold back my 'negative' emotions until I absolutely can't take any more and then the fury that ensues is not pretty. Usually this happens when someone has hurt one of those closest to me. Those that mean the most to me are spared most of the drama.

        2) I tend to be very picky about who I let see how I feel when it comes to deeper or 'negative' emotions. Happy, excited, content, I will show everyone, but I don't even like to let my hubby see me cry let alone anyone else. It's a stupid block that I have about showing some emotions is a sign of weakness, and I must show everyone how strong I am.

        3) If I am hurt emtionally, feel betrayed, or feel lied to I will lash out at first, then I tend to sit back and lick my wounds. And I can sit back and lick my wounds for a very long time. Each time this happens it just makes it that much harder for me to trust someone.

        4) I over analyze and internalize everything. I mean everything, not getting an e-mail from a firend for 2 days means that I have offended them in some way, no matter if their reason for not responding was because they had an emergency appendectamy(sp) and were in the hospital, it is still my fault that they didn't respond. Then I will be stand-offish until they approach me.

        With all that said, slow and steady wins the race every time. 7-8 weeks isn't a long time in the grand scheme of things. Stay with it and it could pay off in wonderful ways.

        hi jenna
        i am also a taurus male with venus in gemini & mars in pisces. (you can look up my chart photo in my profile for more). so i think i know 1 or 2 things about this guy.
        i have 1 good and 1 bad news for you.
        the good is; your feelings for him are not unreasonable, they stand strongly inside of you, as your mars and his venus are at the same sign.
        the bad is; his feelings for you may not be the same kind. he is mostly fond of women who has venus in pisces.
        that is, your mars and his venus in the same sign means you want him so much.
        but if you want to be desired by a man u must look for a man who has mars in leo.

        of course this doesnt mean u cannot be together. this only means that things are a bit harder on your side than his.

    I dunno, most leo's I get along with well.. one of my best friends is a Leo. I don't think I could date a leo but as friends they're awesome. They get me moving if they've cared enough to take the time to get to know me and I even them out and calm their tempers or act as the voice of reason. By getting me moving I mean they get me to do things I want to do deep down but have no motivation or patience for and as long as they don't take my initial hostility as directed at them instead of just being hostile in general then i usually end up having a great time.

          I posted in another tribe a while back...i was having issues
          with a Leo. after we slept together and he said he was 'falling
          back in love with me' (thats right. back. its been a drawn out little
          drama between us), he cancelled it on me because HE said I
          was EMOTIONALLY UNAVALIABLE.
          funniest thing was to see you say that, its so true. it was him, not me.
          they can't communicate. at all.

              The thing with leos is they loveee drama but then they need to be the generous loved admired noble creatures the lion is born to be! Taureans don't mind making fun of themselves once in a while... but leos cannot under any circumstance be laughed at !

                  Man Leo has a bad rep. We all generalize sun signs based on what kind of relationships we have had with them in the past. I know some Leos, we got along pretty good and it seemed like they were a little self involved-but me being a Leo Sun/Taurus Moon/Libra Asc., it seems like it's easy for me to let others have the spot light or ego trip or whatever they want to call it. I like to tell people when they really made me think or inspired me or I show my appreciation for something they did or made...whatever it may be.

                  I actually feel uncomfortable with spotlights and things. Every now and then it's ok, but I noticed I like to focus it somewhere or on someone else. I've always been someone who likes solitary time and quiet, not drama or anything superficial. I'm not sure, I guess just taking the actual Leo sign without taking any other aspect of a chart with it, and I can see why people get turned off by them. There is a whole world full of people to learn from and listen to and help and it isn't all about the lion. Sun is the only thing for me in Leo with personal planets, but sometimes we can all get a little Leonine. I'm sure I've had my moments but I really do try to keep it subdued because selfishness never seems like a good thing to have.

    It seems to me while looking at my Taurus (aries rising)man who has had a Leo girl friend on and off and lately on while I am with him, that they can't live with each other but can't without. I have seen him driving on headphones because he doesn't to hear what she has to say on dirt roads i Mexico. romantic wekend eh?

    Of course he is very non commital and she plays his game.
    I hate to abandon the cozy times wth him but I give up!
    Time to count my losses and move on.
    Bummer.

        I believe Leo's are controlling and I have no doubt us Bulls are bossy. That does create a conflict. Leo's are cool people but I don't want them too close to me.

            Now after all this talk about Leo and Taurus. I find out that a Leo at my job has a crush on me. Since my Taurus boy friend decided he preferred other womenand asked him to loose my number, I have been a little needy of masculine attention.

            Sothis guy has a crush on me. I am curious to find out what kind of guy has a crush on me.
            A Leo has a crush on me? I did not know he was Leo until after I gave him my AIM address and we began chatting last night. Man this guy went straight to the point and told me all these wonderful sexual things he wants to do to me. It fell on me like a ton of bricks! I had no idea this guy had been sexually fantasing about me for months. We have barely had a conversation at work. I could take him to HR in a second. Of course I will not. This happened off of work - online at home.
            I felt he was really forceful and it bothered me. I think I may not have been so taken aback if he had been a little more subtle and perhaps talking on the phone would have made it sound gentler. There is no expression or body language in type written text - or so little

            any way... Not sure what to do about it- Let it go- I am booked for the next 2 weeks and have lots to prepare for for the next month....
            Why do men look at me and think I am constantly horny? That truely bothers me!

              I am a Taurus and Del is a Leo, sometimes he pouts, but after sulking he bounces back.
              every so often he roars and i mind..hehe. I lived with a dark leo in K.C. course he was also Mormon as well. My sister sarah and I are close she is a leo..she was always poised even as a child.

              Do men actually think that? And I agree with Rachelella, they project their own horniness onto you :) Leo's are just flashy. Tell him you're uncomfortable and I'm guessing he'll either get pissed off (leo pride) or stop (leo nobility).

    Ack, I'm married to a Leo and it's been... 'challenging'.
    He may also be bi polar though,
    So maybe the Leo thing isn't the main difficulty....

    I let him run his course and get small windows of communication..
    Wish i had better results and could offer more.

    I absolutely do not understand Leos. No Leo in my own chart or in that of anyone I know on a really close level. Come to think of it, I don't work, associate, or have any constant daily interaction with any that I know of. I think we're "placed" in life around people we naturally harmonize with along with a scattering of enough "total opposites" to make life interesting. The few Leo's I've been briefly aquainted with seem to be pleasant enough. Wait- I can think of two Leo guys I know of...and they both have a Taurus Moon. God..I really don't want to sound like I'm sign-bashing, so no one get offended, please. But I don't really "get" the Leo thing. I'm an Aries/Taurus (0.19 degrees Taurus) so I've definitely got some serios ego of my own, but I'm not always conscious of it. Maybe it's the pride issue that gets in the way with them. I heard that however demanding Leos are of those around them, they're even harder on themselves. God, I'm glad I'm a Taurus....I just wanna FEEL good! What more is there?

      i find that i always fall for leos, so now i check first before i date any boy... i seem to be drawn to them, but taurus and leos, ultimately, do not go well together... too much fire for us... and there is definitely something wrong with communication between leos and taurus...
      according to all the books, we get along, romantically, with cancer (and maybe capricorn?), and sometimes other taurus folks (although i find those relationships, at least with the opposite sex, to be quite boring)...

        I read that Leo's like to be "worshiped", so-to-speak. I haven't come across one that's brought up any feelings of that sort in me. However, I find their pompousness rather amusing. Don't most of you other Bulls expect to be on the receiving end of any worship thats going on anyway?

            It's so, so hard to try to relate to someone who sees thins from a comepletely foreign perspective. You can try to understand them as much as you can, but that doesn't help if they're too stubborn to even try to understand you. I get tired thinking about this. I've been in a situation where clear, honest communication was nearly impossible. We never fixed it, I just finally left. But it definitely was a pride/ego thing with the other person. I even started to think "ok..maybe I AM crazy.." But when it's someone in your family, sometimes you have to give up on ever "fixing" it and just learn to live as peacefully as possible. You can only do so much..then just let it be...

              I have always got on great with Leo's, and I am in love with one, though I have to admit everything said here (good and bad) has the ring of truth. I am a Taurus, but I have a number of important planets in Pisces, as well as 12th house issues. The influence mutes my Taurus enough that I can stand having my ego in second place or being the one in service of someone else's ego. Lucky me.
