Yes, there is something to that saying "strong like a bull," but the descriptor "double-edged sword" also comes to mind; strong and stubborn as well as warm and accommodating. Now, can these traits work together to our benefit? Anything works if you know how to work it. Taurus individuals are patient, loving, persistent people -- when they're not being resentful, greedy, and obstinate. They are creatures of habit, and like the security of routine, so they can be eased from the late-night talk show make-out session to any other "routine" -- like, I get to come first, or sex in the afternoon, or before breakfast. They love to stick to tried and true methods, though, and may be reluctant to step off the precipice into the unknown world of mixing it up. If you want them to try something new, try telling them that you think they can't do it or won't like it. "It's just a new position I read about honey, but you probably won't like it -- it'll hurt your knees," should work, and you'll be doing it before you know what hit you. And it'll work, because your Taurus partner will not give up or wear out until it does.
The Taurus lover is loyal and unlikely to stray or share...they will leave when they've had enough, but you'll be the first to know. Unlike the more "outdoorsy" astrological signs, Taurus natives like to be surrounded by satins, velvets, and all the elegant trappings of a luxurious, sensual home. They have bed linens that envelop you as you slide beneath them; towels are bath sheets, and tubs that are full of scented steamy waters that you don't even have to get into feel clean.
The Taurus woman is the proverbial earth mother/whore combination. She will fuck you as much as you fuck her – providing you can catch her, of course. She likes to be chased, and will make you run a mile before letting you burst through that finishing satin ribbon that graces the doorway to the garden of earthly delights between her thighs. Don't expect to find your way back out till she's finished with you.
Our Mr. Bull is a sensible fellow, scanning the field before choosing his prey. He often appears tough and unaffected by all that's involved in the mating game, but underneath he's as red-blooded and passionate as everyone else. You'll never have to wonder what his intentions are, because when he wants you, he'll tell you. What he lacks in imagination he more than makes up for in stamina, and just plain old "get you there" strength. It doesn't matter that you have to make the move to change positions, as long as he's hard and balls-deep he'll keep on going -- your own energizer bull.
You might have to wait for the Bull to make their move, because they do not like to be rushed. But the very fact that you are able to restrain yourself only makes you more desirable in their eyes. Tell them that the thought of being with them has filled you with an all-consuming lust that grips you morning and night...you think of them beneath you, above you...as you feverishly stroke yourself in an effort to harness this uncontrollable urge...and you're willing to do this because you're saving yourself for them. Now you look even better.
The neck and throat are the special spots for Taurus. That seems too easy. Deep throat me; choke me just a little while I'm coming; bite the back of my neck; fuck me from behind with your arm tight just under my chin; on hands and knees; collared and leashed....
TAURUS-ARIES
Taurus and Aries both like good hard sex, and lots of it. Taurus will, without a doubt, be too possessive for Aries, which is a bit of a sticky wicket, as Aries themselves can be ownership driven. Taurus likes to have a plan and stick to it, and will only be able to fake that they are okay with Aries' last minute changeability for a little while. The switch from dungeon to romantic evening won't be appreciated, because in the Bull's head they're already strapped to the cross ready to be whipped -- not wooed -- and vice versa.
TAURUS-TAURUS
Hmm...both like lots of sex, both are happy to stick to the game plan, both like the direct approach, both like to win and...wait...both like to win. This means someone has to lose. This means it isn't going to work in the long run, because Taurus doesn't take the middle ground.
TAURUS-GEMINI
Nope, this isn't going to work either. Gemini natives flirt because they feel like it and they're good at it. The Bull flirts as a prelude to a given. Taurus does not understand the Gemini need for variety in life -- and this doesn't mean partners as much as it means variety in everything. They may intrigue each other in the short run, but the Taurus demand for stability will push Gemini right off the other side of the bed.
TAURUS-CANCER
Highly-sexed and passionate, this pair, when they come up for air, will find that they share many of the same values; both placing the importance of hearth and home high on their list of priorities. Cancer's moods don't faze Taurus in the least. Taurus knows that it is Tuesday, and that they will bend Cancer over and have them, just as Cancer knows that it is Tuesday and no matter how cranky they've been, Taurus will bend them over and have them....as it is in the joy of shared routine.
TAURUS-LEO
Even though Taurus is not prone to jumping into the sack on the first meet, the directness of Leo may propel this relationship along faster than others. The speed that they find themselves in each other's pants with only hastens the speed that they leap back out. Taurus, although no braggart, wants appreciation for their ability to get the job done. Leo, on the other hand, wants to be admired for their contributions. I can't appreciate the size of your cock and your ability to use it if I'm busy admiring how I look when you fill me up. Is there some sort of correlation here?...certainly not in Leo's head.
TAURUS-VIRGO
These two love how un-spontaneous the other is. Is this possible? Do they plan everything? Dinner and a movie -- then it's your turn to get on top of me? What could possibly lurk behind the bedroom door of these two? Well one thing for sure -- they know, because there are not going to be any real surprises, but they're happy -- two peas in a pod, so if they don't mind, why should I?
TAURUS-LIBRA
Libra's inability to decide on anything drives Taurus crazy, once the initial glee at making all the decisions wears off. Taurus does not want to debate everything, change things up just because, or bring new partners in because they look good in a pair of stilettos.
TAURUS-SCORPIO
Neither of these two are roamers, which is a good thing, as both are quite possessive. They are sexually well-matched and share an almost obsessive view of what sex is supposed to be. Problems may arise when Scorpio brings new things into the relationship. Not new people, but a desire to experience different aspects -- new positions, different toys, BDSM experimentation, gender play; Taurus likes to stick with what works already. If this plug wears out, we'll get another one -- just like this one. Scorpio wants a different color, size, and shape.
TAURUS-SAGITTARIUS
Taurus likes the Sagittarian style of honesty and directness, but the desire to control the Hunter is strong. We've discussed this here before; the only way you can tie this one down is to actually knot them -- which stretches the boundary of rope-play and sex. The fact that Sag leaps up and runs every time Taurus unties them is not the type of routine that Taurus is looking for.
TAURUS-CAPRICORN
This could work. Both are very straightforward, and if Capricorn can exhibit restraint long enough to give Taurus the time to feel somewhat pursued, then it should be game on. Both like sex and lots of it -- uncomplicated, no games, no-holds barred, mutually satisfying, honest to goodness, sweaty, howling, slap-my-ass fucking. And quite frankly, there is nothing wrong with that.
TAURUS-AQUARIUS
Just give up now. It'll be like catching bubbles. They look so pretty in the sun you want to catch one and look up close at the slippery patterns that shimmer across their delicate surfaces...oops...it popped and it's not the kind of pop that makes you feel all warm and wet either. Move along, nothing to look at here.
TAURUS-PISCES
The stability of Taurus shores up the wobbly Fish. Taurus will devote themselves, and in return receive the appreciation they need. It's a beautiful thing. Pisces is very sensuous and can lead the Bull down the path little by little until, before you know it -- they're wearing each other's underpants, the Scarlet Whore Red lipstick is on the big guy, and strap-on sex is the new routine.
