Taurus and Aquarius Compatibility

Overall rating: Mixed. Taurus (earth) and Aquarius (air) make a match that works with effort and respect.

Taurus and Aquarius bring earth and air together. Below is how each sign loves, where you click and clash, what you are like in bed and day to day, and how you get on as friends and at work.

How Taurus loves

Taurus takes time to commit but means it completely once they do. In a relationship, Taurus needs steadiness, touch, comfort and promises that are kept, and shows love in its own steady, practical way.

How Aquarius loves

Aquarius loves as a friend first and values independence. In a relationship, Aquarius needs space, honesty and a partner with their own mind, and shows love in its own talkative, thoughtful way.

Where you click

Air lives in ideas and earth lives in the practical world. You can learn a great deal from each other, but you may feel misunderstood. The work is meeting in the middle: plans that are both imaginative and real.

Signs three apart create tension that pushes both of you to grow; it can be a strong, dynamic bond. At your best, Taurus is devoted, sensual and calm in a crisis and Aquarius is loyal, original and a true partner in thought. Where those strengths meet is where this match clicks.

Where you clash

Taurus can bring stubbornness and a slow response to change, and Aquarius can bring emotional distance when feelings run high. On a bad day, those two habits set each other off.

Air can find earth too fixed and earth can find air too vague. Turn ideas into one concrete step at a time.

In bed and in daily life

Earth signs are physical and patient: touch, comfort and time matter more to them than grand gestures. Air signs are drawn in through the mind first: flirting, laughter and conversation are part of the attraction. The more you learn about the other's way of wanting, the better it gets.

Day to day, air brings the ideas and earth brings the follow-through. Respect both jobs and the household runs well.

Friendship and work

As friends, you swap very different views of the world, which keeps the friendship interesting.

At work, air plans and earth builds. The partnership works when the plan is realistic and the builder is allowed to say so.

What Sun signs can and cannot tell you
