Taurus and Scorpio Compatibility

Overall rating: Good. Taurus (earth) and Scorpio (water) make a naturally supportive match.

Taurus and Scorpio bring earth and water 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 Scorpio loves

Scorpio loves intensely and all at once, or not at all. In a relationship, Scorpio needs trust, depth and complete honesty, and shows love in its own tender, intuitive way.

Where you click

Water nourishes earth. Earth gives water safety and water gives earth emotional depth, which is one of the most natural pairings in astrology. The work is making sure change is still allowed.

Opposite signs attract strongly and balance each other, when they stop trying to win. At your best, Taurus is devoted, sensual and calm in a crisis and Scorpio is passionate, loyal and unshakeable. Where those strengths meet is where this match clicks.

Where you clash

Taurus can bring stubbornness and a slow response to change, and Scorpio can bring jealousy and testing a partner's loyalty. On a bad day, those two habits set each other off.

You can both avoid change for too long. Plan small changes together so neither of you feels pushed.

In bed and in daily life

Earth signs are physical and patient: touch, comfort and time matter more to them than grand gestures. Water signs need emotional closeness before physical closeness, and intimacy for them is about feeling safe and understood. The more you learn about the other's way of wanting, the better it gets.

Day to day, you build a comfortable home together. Earth takes care of the practical side and water takes care of the feeling side, which suits you both.

Friendship and work

As friends, you are steady and kind with each other, the person each of you calls when things go wrong.

At work, you combine practical skill with good instincts about people, which makes for a steady partnership.

What Sun signs can and cannot tell you
