Aries and Taurus in love
Fire is spontaneous and earth is steady, so the attraction comes from difference – and so do the arguments.
Aries loves with energy and honesty: quick to fall for someone, happiest with a partner who enjoys a challenge and keeps up the pace. Taurus loves slowly and for keeps: loyal, affectionate and fond of comfort, good food and a settled routine together.
As friends
Fire gets earth out of the house; earth helps fire keep its feet on the ground.
At work
A useful mix if fire sets the pace and earth handles the plan. One starts things (cardinal) and one sees them through (fixed): a good division of labour if neither tries to rule.
Strengths and watch-outs
- Best together: balance between action and patience.
- Aries brings: brave, enthusiastic and honest. Taurus brings: reliable, patient and devoted.
- Watch out for: different speeds – agree on plans and money early.
