Taurus and Scorpio in love
In love there's support and loyalty: one gives security, the other tenderness. It's one of the most solid combinations for building something long-term.
In friendship and work
In friendship and work, both sustain and don't let up: total loyalty, but if they disagree neither gives in.
Why they get along this way
Element — Fertility and containment. Earth gives Water a channel and Water softens Earth's firmness: one holds, the other nourishes.
Rhythm. Both are fixed: both sustain. They understand each other's way of moving, but neither makes up for what the other lacks.
Polarity. They share Yin polarity (inward, receptive energy): they go in the same direction.
Rulers. Taurus is ruled by Venus (affection and pleasure); Scorpio, by Pluto and Mars (transformation; action and desire).
What each one brings
Taurus: determination, patience and loyalty.
Scorpio: intensity, transformation and depth.
Where they can clash

Scorpio: jealousy, control and revenge.
How to look after the bond
Move toward the center: each can learn from the other exactly what they lack, instead of reproaching them for it.
