Gemini meets Taurus

As "next-door" signs, this combination may well prove to be best friends as well as sweethearts. Gemini is able to get Taurus out of the house and into the social life, thereby adding laughter and playtime to love. The soothing, stabilizing quality of Taurus has the effect of making Gemini bloom, teaching this sign to "smell the roses" and observe the beauties of life. However, as with all "next-door" signs, there can be a tendency for one to get on the nerves of the other. Gemini's quick changes sometimes confuse the more steady Taurus, while the settled ways of Taurus often baffle Gemini. Gemini has a tendency to play fast and loose with the truth...albeit all in the name of good fun...which can make Taurus "see red." Meanwhile, Gemini frequently views Taurus as being something of a boring creature.

Given that the Taurus homebody generally prefers one-on-one relationships while the social Gemini loves to flirt with a crowd, it is important that Gemini curb the inherent roving eye (and sometimes body) and plan to spend more time at home. Infidelity, often taken lightly by Gemini, is serious business to Taurus and the balance between freedom and license is not always easily attained by this pairing. In order to achieve longevity and enjoy life together, the Taurus/Gemini combination must take each other at face value. Gemini is only going to be able to rouse Taurus so much before he or she returns to the beloved creature comforts. Taurus may calm Gemini down for enjoyment of the traditionally finer things in life for a while, but eventually he or she will be scampering off, Taurus in tow, for a look at the latest gimmick to come down the pike. Nevertheless, if Gemini truly loves Taurus, then he or she has the ability to adapt to almost anything and, quite often, the inherent common sense of Taurus will bury itself in order to keep this match intact...if the love is there.
