While Sagittarius thrives on variety, travel, socializing, and exploring, Taurus is often content to plug away at the same thing day after day, until it nearly drives Sagittarius crazy!
In some ways, you are the "odd couple" with opposite traits. Although it is nice to think that your opposite natures can complement each other, the truth is that you may also need to do many things separately in order to be happy with each other, because Sagittarius is likely to become bored by Taurus' routine and Taurus is likely to feel very distracted and unsettled from Sagittarius' wide-ranging interests. If you can appreciate and understand each other, you can help add balance to your lives.
You have very different, and often conflicting, emotional needs and yearnings. Sagittarius is expansive, craves adventure, and wants to be where the energy and action is. Sagittarius' curiosity and quest for growth, knowledge, or new experiences creates a strong urge for travel or changes in residence. Taurus, on the other hand, is very attached to the familiar, and prefers a steady routine, domestic peace and stability. Taurus is very slow and resistant to changes in home life or personal relationships, and may feel threatened by Sagittarius' restlessness.
Also, Sagittarius is an idealist with great hopes and plans for the future, while Taurus lives primarily in the present and is more involved with immediate, tangible concerns. Sagittarius may feel that Taurus doesn't understand or appreciate Sagittarius' dreams, and that Taurus stifles Sagittarius' enthusiasm with an insistence on realism and practicality.
Taurus may feel that Sagittarius lives in an unreal world, ignores the facts at hand, and leaves Taurus to take care of the work and business of day to day life.
However, you both have an essentially generous, live-and-let-live attitude which may enable you to overlook the differences between you.
This is a relationship that is sparked by an irresistible sexual attraction and romantic desire. Your passion and desire for one another will always remain alive.
This is likely to be a stormy and fiery relationship. The romantic attraction between you is very strong, but your feelings are often not in tune with each other. One of you (typically Sagittarius but sometimes Taurus) may feel sexually aroused by the other and consequently be too aggressive in approach, while the other person feels great love and affection, but is not feeling as sexually attracted. Jealousy and possessiveness are also likely. Feelings can swing back and forth and you may not realize how much you love each other until you are away from each other.
Full sexual expression may be difficult at times. Avoid questioning your overall performance, you may kill spontaneity between the both of you. Power struggles, emotional or sexual manipulation and disruptive jealousy may also be an ongoing problem.
Throughout your relationship, there will be unusual events, sudden turnabouts, unexpected intrusions, and surprises, which may prevent you from following through on some of your joint plans or settling into a steady, reliable pattern with one another. There may be a disjointed, unnerving sense of uncertainty, but if you are both fairly adaptable and open, you may be able to ride through the ups and downs. A sense of humour will be a requirement!
If one of you becomes restless, it is important to be absolutely truthful and up-front about the changes you want to make, rather than becoming unreliable and acting out erratically. You may find to your surprise that the other person is restless too, and willing to try something radically different.
You won't be able to avoid change in this relationship; how you deal with it will determine the success of your togetherness.
A need for solitude and withdrawal, for removing yourselves from the clamour of day to day duties and responsibilities, will be an important aspect of your relationship. You may wish to take very quiet times by yourselves, or even separately from time to time.
If you resist this need, eventually one or both of you will simply feel lonely even in one another's company.
