Strengths as a Couple
If there is any reason at all why people of the same signs are extremely compatible in astrology, look no further than the partnership between Virgo and Taurus. For starters, they come from the same life-giving Earth sign, which means they will be nursing each other mutually when they’re about to crumble.
They also logically follow each other in their modality: Taurus is a fixed sign, which means they are very sturdy and steadfast: they have high confidence and equally high self-esteem, as well as a focus for the task at hand and a firm footing on the reality that makes them highly useful in all manner of practical things. They know how to regulate their imagination and temper their ambitions.
Virgo, on the other hand, represents the ending of the seasons-- mutable and adaptable in all her maidenly glory. Not only are they similarly grounded with the Taurus, but they also go even further and are actually more capable of interacting and adapting to the needs of other signs. Virgos enjoy a rich network of social connections that can help them with all kinds of problems ranging from academic, economic, and especially romantic.
Lastly, because of their fundamentally similar characteristics, not only will they mostly agree with one another on anything, Virgo has the unique characteristic of exploring other perspectives on situations that Taurus themselves might miss, enhancing the latter’s understanding of the world.
Due to the signs having so many things in common with one another, there is a lot of reason to believe that you and your partner will last years, maybe even decades, without ever getting tired of the other’s nourishing presence in your lives.
Weaknesses as a Couple
Honestly, it’s actually harder to list weaknesses than strengths, considering the two suit each other really well. If there is even anything at all to mention at this point, it would be the subtle differences in each of the signs that could potentially lead to some bumps in what would otherwise be a smooth and seamless relationship.
Taurus is reputed for its stubbornness and a relative inability to meet people halfway due to their own belief in themselves and in their preferred state of order. While they’re not as aggressive or assertive as Aries, they do often appreciate a harmonious state of affairs, which can’t be completely possible at every turn, especially since Virgos are, in fact, mutable.
This mutable trait of the Virgo can also be considered a downside because adaptability means to be comfortable with assuming views or acknowledging truths that seem incompatible with one’s own inner nature. For example, Virgos may not like certain foods or beverages, but they can be adaptable enough to at least try and even like them.
As such, you can count on Virgos almost certainly have no problems adjusting to the demand, but how about the Taurus, for whom precedence is everything? Further still, because of Virgo's flexibility and relative appreciation for adventure, there is a chance that they may be distracted and even delayed from reaching their goals.
Fortunately, there’s basically no need to worry: Taurus can help Virgos retain their focus by reminding them of the tasks at hand and reestablishing discipline when things get out of control. Similarly, Virgos can make Taurus appreciate innovative perspectives, which could initially seem unimaginable to them.
Compatibility
Romance
While the two are romantically compatible to an amazing degree, there is a degree of challenge one has to acknowledge regarding the bedroom. This is because while both of them are passionate about the people they choose to love, Taurus has a higher degree of affinity for sex, if only because the surer they are about someone, the more desire they have to be intimate with them.
The same cannot be said for the Virgo, whose emphasis on identity and pride makes them relatively hesitant whenever their partners want to copulate. Of course, this doesn’t mean they don’t like sex itself; they enjoy it as much as any other sign, but they do take motive into account while doing it, not to mention love can be expressed in so many other ways, so frequency may be low in this regard.
However, as for the lovemaking itself, there’s every reason to be happy. After all, we are looking at two compatible signs whose inventiveness and love for one another are guaranteed to be strong and filled with righteous passion.
Activities
In terms of activities, there’s plenty of things the two signs would enjoy doing together. For one, considering they are earth signs, they will inevitably end up enjoying the same things. Plus, the mutability of the Virgo means they will even expand the kinds of activities they can do at a pace that best suits them.
For example, because Tauruses are very doting and caring for their loved one, there will be many cuddles as they sit on the couch watching movies, not to mention the Virgo’s thorough desire for relaxation at the appropriate time means the days and nights together will be well-spent making each other smile.
Further, since Virgos are very good at convincing other Earth signs to do other things, they will certainly aid Taurus in doing tasks they normally wouldn’t try. So if you’re a Virgo hoping to get your partner to try and cook something you found on the internet, now’s certainly a good time to reach out to them. Considering you’re their love, they’ll definitely want to help!
Communication
Communication is yet another area in which there’s bound to be nearly no problem whatsoever. Both these signs understand each other so uncannily that they can just glare at one another and still be able to get a read at what the other feels at that exact second.
However, there is one point we’ve made regarding the differences in modality. While they come from the same Earth sign, Tauruses plant their feet on the ground even more than Virgos do, the latter of whom at least allow themselves to liberally assume outlooks that could help them get an edge over an obstacle or a problem.
This potential conflict in sentiment can be fatal, especially when they're confronted with the same difficult situation. In this regard, the onus will inevitably be on both sides. On the one hand, Virgos will need to suggest new ways of handling a problem at a pace Tauruses would be most comfortable with.
Similarly, when worse comes to worst, Tauruses will need to acknowledge that they cannot assume the same perspective forever. Adaptation is necessary not just to human survival, but for the health and well-being of the relationship as well. The two will, therefore, need to walk together, holding hands when difficult times come.
Values
In terms of values, the two signs are in near-complete agreement. Given that both possess an iron will and a firm dedication to clearing tasks and long-term security, both will almost certainly agree that procrastinating isn’t a virtue.
Their strong resolve is further fueled by their similar attachment to the Earth sign, which makes them strong pillars of support that they can rely on for any fortuitous or unfortunate situation.
The only significant point of friction is their different modality; however, these are not even opposites: mutable and fixed signs are well known for augmenting each other's positive sides. All that's really needed is for them to find their groove in the relationship to utilize these advantages to the fullest.
Emotions
Emotionally, they can count on each other without any hesitation. While Earth signs are not as emotionally attuned as, say, Water signs, they do have a fraternizing relationship among each other. In other words, Earth signs are mutually sensitive to their weaknesses and will reach out to each other for comfort.
Specifically, Virgo's difficulties in socializing with others are effectively minimized by the fact that they can always count on the Taurus to hug them when they come home. Similarly, Taurus' relative isolation and inflexibility are fixed by Virgo's persuasive and innovative nature.
When they need to relax and inject fun into their lives, Tauruses will always be there to do heartwarming things, while Virgos tend to add new things that can only add more spice to an already stable relationship.
Healing Crystals for Virgo and Taurus
Jade
Balancing out is one of the key areas where Virgo and Taurus must focus upon. Since both of them have strong personalities on their own, it can be quite challenging to say that one is balanced with the other. Since they can both be quite insistent on what they want to happen, their clashing energies may bring unprecedented conflict between these two highly compatible signs.
As such, keeping things at bay is their best solution. With the help of Jade as a healing crystal, nothing is impossible for this couple since Jade brings a kind of inner balance that was once harnessed and sought by the great eastern kingdoms.
With such history in its accord, Jade can be a transformative healing crystal that allows both of these signs to focus on what they can contribute to the other, given their weakness.
Star Agate
As one of the uncommon healing crystals, Star Agate is known to bring inner stability. On the spiritual level, it brings maturity, allowing its users to see more clearly the things that they value the most. While on the subconscious level, this brings inner stability, allowing individuals to better assess their own actions.
Since both of these Earth signs are definitely hedonistic, both of them may seek such only in different forms – Taurus is rather lazy while Virgo is greedy.
As such, Star Agate can work its magic by forcing them to re-evaluate things. In this way, they are compelled to assess which things are actually worth keeping for the relationship.
Amethyst
As mentioned in our second healing crystal suggestion, both Virgo and Taurus are hedonistic. With their world view, happiness and meaning can be limited to sex, food, and comfort.
Being a staple healing crystal, Amethyst is known to bring spiritual growth to its users. Not only that, such metaphysical benefit often leads to the unlocking of inner peace, as its users gain the benefit of accessing their higher self.
With that, there is a need for them to seek their higher self. In doing so, they allow themselves to be detached (or at least temporarily detached) from their worldly desires. In doing so, they will be able to keep track of where they are and where they're headed to in life.
