When two strong and opposite signs like Scorpio and Taurus enter a relationship, their love can grow as big as their personalities, or it can fade and end badly. The Earth sign of the Taurus woman and the Water sign of the Scorpio man are at opposite ends of the zodiac spectrum, however being opposite in nature can increase attraction.
The Taurus woman and Scorpio man may be polar opposites of one another, but each sign is notorious for being set in their ways and unwilling to budge. These strong personalities can cause trouble in a relationship, but the success in love depends on how much the Taurus woman and Scorpio man is willing to “give and take.”
Strong-Willed Signs
Despite being very different signs, the biggest commonality between a Scorpio man and a Taurus woman is their inclination for being strong-willed. On the surface, the Scorpio appears to be in charge due to strong instincts that are often right and holding to his convictions.
A Taurus woman can be a great partner for a sharp-tailed Scorpio since she’s relatively laid back and is willing to go with the flow to a certain extent. A Taurus woman should never be underestimated as a pushover as she will speak up and fight for what she wants if she thinks it’s worth the effort.
With both being strong-willed, it can be challenging to get either to open up. Both Taurus and Scorpio are not likely to let anyone in until they decide that their prospective partner is worth getting to know and trust.
A Scorpio Man and Taurus Woman Value Trust in Relationships
The Scorpio man and Taurus woman rarely jump into a relationship or let others in until they are comfortable and feel that they have reached a level of trust with a partner. Scorpio men often come across as somewhat mysterious and even a little uninterested while Taurus women rarely rush into anything, so the courtship between the two may be slow, careful, and a bit confusing.
It is not until a level of trust has been reached that the Scorpio man will show his true vulnerable self. A Taurus woman is not likely to show her true self until the Scorpio man takes the lead.
If trust is broken, both the Scorpio man and Taurus woman may find it hard to forgive and unable to rebuild trust in a relationship. This can result at the end of all types of relationships.
Balance Plays an Important Role
A Scorpio and Taurus work together best when their relationship is balanced. Even though they are opposite in nearly every way, once they find a balance their relationship is strong.
The Scorpio is dramatic, emotional, intuitive, and passionate. He will almost always say what is on his mind and will not mince words. While a Scorpio’s personality is not always appreciated or understood by everyone, many Taurus women will understand and value a Scorpio’s honesty and intensity.
Taurus women are often very feminine, which is important and attractive to an ultra-masculine Scorpio. Since a Scorpio man does not want to compete with someone who is equally as dramatic and intense, he is drawn to the relaxed and calm demeanor of the Taurus woman.
The Taurus woman desires to be adored and a Scorpio man, when he’s truly in love, wants nothing more than to devote himself to a partner that he can protect and dote on.
A Strong Sexual Bond
Although both signs take their time and many precautions before letting love in, the sexual bond between a Scorpio man and Taurus woman is strong. A Scorpio’s intuition is beneficial in the bedroom, pleasing partners, and creating a dynamic sexual bond.
Taurus women are unlikely to take the lead in the bedroom, and even though a Taurus likes to take her time getting comfortable, a Scorpio can make her feel at ease and adored which is a major turn on.
At the start of a relationship, a Taurus woman may find herself surprised by the amount of time she spends in the bedroom with a Scorpio man, but she can feel reassured knowing that he’s devoted to their intimacy.
While a Scorpio and Taurus will enjoy many activities together, the time they spend between the sheets may be the most “real” experience as they are both completely devoted (and vulnerable) to one another.
Creating Boundaries and Communication
As the relationship between a Scorpio and Taurus continues, each sign may begin to show a little more of their true selves as they become more comfortable with one another.
Although the Scorpio is notorious for saying what is on his mind, it may become more important for the Taurus to speak up and say what she needs and wants. Even though a Scorpio is intuitive and is confident is his ability to know what his partner wants, he may not always be right (despite what he thinks).
Over time, a Taurus woman may grow tired of being an emotional cheerleader without having her voice heard. If a Taurus wants something, she needs to speak up and keep the lines of communication open.
Without creating boundaries in the relationship or communicating needs and wants, the relationship may fizzle out quickly.
Traits That Can Threaten The Relationship
As a Scorpio and Taurus build their relationship on trust and continue to open up to one another the more comfortable they become, there are certain traits of each sign that can threaten the strength and harmony of the relationship.
The Scorpio man has many admirable qualities that make him a very devoted partner, but as he lets his guard down, even more, he may exhibit characteristics that can be problematic.
- Jealousy
- Possessive
- Manipulative
- Impulsive
Even when Scorpio man and Taurus woman are in a committed relationship with one another, the Scorpio’s passion for his mate may start to feel a bit possessive. A Scorpio may also become easily jealous by other relationships that a Taurus has with friends and coworkers.
A Taurus woman is understanding, supportive, and patient, but over time may begin to feel “fed up” with some of Scorpio’s less than attractive characteristics. She may get tired of trying to convince her Scorpio partner that she is devoted to him and that he has nothing to worry about.
A Scorpio may also become frustrated with his partner’s hesitation to move forward or make impulsive and big life decisions. As comfortable as a Taurus may be in her relationship, she will continue to make choices and steps carefully. Although a Scorpio is very devoted and will not seek out the love of someone else, he might make his relationship more challenging.
If a Taurus woman becomes frustrated in her relationship with a Scorpio, she may begin to exhibit characteristics that may surprise and even worry a Scorpio man, making him rethink their partnership.
- Stubborn
- Temper
- Impatience
- Begins to be less supportive if her limits are pushed
Once the couple starts exhibiting some of their less than positive attributes, arguments may be more common. The Scorpio man will likely let his partner “win” the argument (and make her think she’s won) but may ultimately end up being in control. If this occurs too often, both signs may become resentful and resort to their defensive ways and building up walls.
Making The Relationship Last
Like every relationship, the bond between a Scorpio man and Taurus woman requires work. Finding balance, being open, and continuing to communicate even if it results in an argument, are the best ways to keep the relationship going.
Since both signs are strong-willed and have a difficult time straying from their comfort zones, neither partner is likely to make drastic changes long-term. While a Scorpio and Taurus may show a little more flexibility in the beginning of the relationship, both may grow tiresome of trying to please the other if it means sacrificing their true selves.
As the passion and strong sexual relationship begins to take a backseat in the relationship, it’s difficult to know how long the relationship between the Earth and Water sign will last. Even though some Scorpios and Taurus’s have a hot and heavy relationship that fizzles out fast, some can make it work long-term.
When a Taurus woman is in love, she wants to live a life of domesticity, and the Scorpio man wants to care for the woman he loves. If the couple decides to marry, they will encounter challenges but learn how to work through them.
As long as both signs value the relationship, recognize the challenges, and learn how to maneuver some of the biggest issues, a Taurus and Scorpio partnership can last long-term.
