Gemini and Taurus Compatibility

The stars give a Gemini woman and a Taurus man slim odds of ever becoming a couple. But if your pair was meant to be anyway, treasure what you have. Others may see your relationship as a curiosity. Let them. Don't be afraid to break the stereotypes and write your own rules!

Love and Dating

A Gemini woman with a Taurus man? Someone must have cast a spell… He was most certainly looking for a different kind of woman: a quiet, affectionate homebody. And her idea of Prince Charming looks nothing like this calm, careful Taurus, who flat-out refuses to fight a dragon that's just strolling past, minding its own business.

So these two usually start out under a kind of enchantment: each sees someone in the other who isn't really there. Still, while the love fever lasts, they may well move in together or even head down to city hall to get married. And once the knot is tied, the dogged Taurus will do everything he can to keep them together.

Sexual Compatibility

A Gemini woman and a Taurus man differ in temperament and in appetite. For him, making love is a basic part of life, and he's in the mood for it every single day. For her, such a straightforward, purely physical approach usually won't do. The Gemini woman needs to be inspired and in the mood, or else under some serious stress. Of course, Taurus shouldn't drive her to hysterics just so he can comfort her in bed afterward. But regularly bringing new tricks into the bedroom? Absolutely.

Relationships and Family

If you ever catch a Taurus man and a Gemini woman out for a walk with their little one, you'll see right away how differently their minds work! He sticks to old-school parenting, reminding the child of the rules again and again and making sure they're followed. She, meanwhile, gives the toddler free rein and allows just about anything that isn't life-threatening: splashing in puddles, tasting dandelions, whipping up scrumptious-looking mud pies...

Day to day, life for a Gemini woman and a Taurus man runs on his endless patience and his willingness to give in. Rest assured, his idea-a-minute wife won't give him or his credit card a moment's peace! Taurus tends to enjoy playing patron, so if her ideas strike him as sensible and interesting, he'll happily back every venture she takes on. But if his beloved loses touch with reality and her fantasies balloon into pure phantasmagoria, Taurus may well run for the hills in horror. To keep the peace at home, the Gemini wife should line up solid arguments before she pitches anything.

On top of that, money fights are quite likely here. When he has to, the Taurus man can tighten his belt on everything, especially if they have kids or a big purchase coming up, while the Gemini woman sees no reason to deny herself anything at all. Still, the horoscope is clear: if these two can come to terms on the budget, that alone will clear away at least half their other problems.

A Taurus woman and a Gemini man together are one of fate's whims. The two of them bring to mind the old fable of the ant and the grasshopper, and it's the man who's angling for the grasshopper's part. In the fable, the ant showed no understanding whatsoever for the carefree singer's artistic nature. A Taurus and a Gemini, though, may write a very different ending.

Love and Dating

The statistics don't lie: a Taurus woman and a Gemini man usually meet at a party, in a nightclub, or at a friend's place. In other words, they meet wherever there's fun in the air and the Gemini man can show himself at his brightest and best. But while the steady Taurus woman knows the difference between a celebration and an ordinary weekday, the man she's chosen can't say the same. Still, she's happy to pick up some of the habits of the man she loves, so for a long time the difference in their temperaments barely shows. Well, except that it takes her about five times longer to get ready for a party.

Sexual Compatibility

In bed, the grounded Taurus woman and the impatient Gemini man are neither a bad match nor an especially good one. He sometimes lacks the patience to fully awaken her sensuality. Yes, he loves every kind of experiment and erotic adventure, but for him the experiment is the whole point. She runs every trial with an eye to putting the results to use later. He, meanwhile, gets bored doing the same thing twice, even when it was good.

Relationships and Family

Picture a couple at a travel agency picking out a vacation. The man eagerly says yes to everything the agent suggests, while the woman shoots each idea down on the spot, weeding out with a jeweler's precision anything that fails her long list of requirements. If you ever see that scene, chances are good you're looking at a Gemini man and a Taurus woman. He catches fire in an instant (unless what's on offer is long, monotonous work), while she never rushes a decision.

For all their differences, a Taurus woman and a Gemini man may well end up married. She wants to make things official from the very start, and he's easily swept up by whatever mood he's in, and sometimes that mood turns matrimonial. But at the first family crisis, the Gemini man may bolt. He'd rather ignore problems than solve them, and if they don't clear up on their own, he'd rather run for it.

Then again, the Taurus woman can handle plenty of crises on her own. She also isn't the type to nag her husband or nitpick over little things, unlike many women of the zodiac. If the Gemini man can get a grip on his fickle nature, these two may well live together in peace and happiness.
