Relationships between Aries and Taurus

Since both Rams and Oxen have horns, the Ram's ability to push through and the Ox's stubbornness may seem to be the same traits.

But they are not, and the numerous incidents that are inevitable in their relationship will show this difference.

For example, an Aries parent, trying to feed their Taurus child, declares to them in a tone typical of people under the influence of Mars: "You will eat every last crumb and only then will you leave the table!" That is what it means to "push through."

The Taurus child, looking at the parent with clear eyes, calmly replies "I will not."

This is stubbornness.

The Aries boss wants his Taurus subordinate to work on his day off, and firmly states: "I need you on Saturday, perhaps for the whole day, so put off all your business."

This means "to act forcefully."

The Taurus subordinate, without raising his voice, objects: "I'm busy on Saturday, ask someone else."

This is stubbornness.

After several clashes between the two signs, the difference will become obvious. The one who goes forcefully is always the initiator.

The stubborn one only reacts. The first one carries out a positive action, and the second one - a negative reaction, therefore, in any skirmish between Aries and Taurus, the Ram starts and the Bull finishes.

It is important to remember this.

The Bull will not forget this.

He never forgets anything.

Although Aries are accused of burning bridges behind them and scattering sparks around with careless ease, they have their own good qualities.

Taurus, as is commonly believed, is always sulking and waiting for something, ready to crush the enthusiasm of Aries with their quiet stubbornness.

But from time to time, the Bulls also have an imagination, if they want to, and besides, they have a deep wisdom and a surprisingly warm sense of humor, hidden behind a pragmatic exterior.

Nevertheless, the main difference between these two Sun signs should be clearly understood.

Rames tend to behave aggressively, impulsively, extravagantly, they love to talk, are optimistic, and often show willpower.

They chase quick results, while always believing in miracles a little.

Otherwise, life would seem inexpressibly boring to them.

Bulls are most often reserved, practical, use words sparingly, are pleased with themselves, but sometimes somewhat pessimistic. They seek stability, solitude and reliability, need rest and peace - a prerequisite for a tolerable life for them.

Yes, of course, these people cannot be called twins.

Their inner motivation, not to mention their outward manifestations, are usually different. However, it is often a blessing to meet a person who has qualities that you do not have.

Taurus is better suited to a tolerant and compassionate role in relation to the Ram, and Aries should try to imitate the serene calm of the Ox.

In the end, serene calm is one way or another a synonym for strength, and the word "weakness" is not in the vocabulary of either the Ram or the Ox.

Although Oxen also love strength, they are ruled by Venus, which somehow softens the situation, and therefore they are not so eager to dominate.

Taurus understands the constraint that hides behind the courage and demonstrative independence of Aries, since each Sun sign stores particles of karmic memory of the properties of the sign immediately preceding it in the Zodiac.

The Bull can perfectly calculate the consequences of situations in which a person forgets about caution.

However, he has a strong desire for financial independence, and he can most often achieve his goals only in cooperation with a tireless and energetic person under the influence of Mars. Tauruses intuitively understand this, which is one of the reasons why they are attracted to Aries in the first place.

As for the Ram, he or she secretly hates the Taurus's reserve and caution, but knows that they can benefit greatly from the Ox's sober, rational approach to life.

Each Sun sign subconsciously feels that they can learn a lot from their neighboring Zodiac signs. That is why Aries feels a tangible dependence on Taurus, especially when Mars's haste brings a lot of difficulties upon them.

The natural qualities of the Ox and the Ram can combine in such a way that each can, with the help of the other, achieve much more than they could do on their own.

However, in their relationship there is always the danger that the Ram may irritate the Ox from time to time, exceeding the limits of even his patience, until Taurus, after long reflection, finally comes to the conclusion that he is wasting his energy in vain. And vice versa.

The Ox may refuse to moderate the flame of the Ram's most ardent ideas, ideals or dreams, and the Ram will be forced to leave in order to avoid depression, which no person under the influence of Mars can bear for long.

The Ram may be surprised and even disappointed by the periodic attacks of melancholy and self-absorption characteristic of the Ox, even if they are softened by jokes or pranks.

From time to time, Aries will try to flatter Taurus and persuade him to go to a party or to be socially active, which can help balance Taurus's desire for solitude (a wonderful trait if it is not the dominant one in his character).

Aries, in order not to disturb the serenity and calm of Taurus, should encourage his innate love for music, painting, nature.

A serious mistake that most Aries make in relation to Taurus - a friend, relative, business partner, lover or spouse - is trying to push the Ox to make a decision.

The Ox must think everything over carefully and decide for himself. Demands, prodding, insistence (the main elements of Mars's strategy when Aries's desires are thwarted) will only cause a backlash, and Taurus may eventually withdraw into himself. If Taurus believes that the proposal is worth it, he will think it over and sooner or later will have his say.

Until that moment, no other force on Earth will move the deadlock.

And there is no need to try to change anything.

If the Bull can make sure that he, as they say in the West, "rides in the same saddle" with the Ram, and will be aware in advance of the fact that Aries is characterized by practicality, their connection will be smoother.

And the Ram should be allowed to behave according to his nature, because of which, most likely, he will get a lot of bumps and thus better learn that thoughtless, impulsive behavior often brings bitter fruits. Aries will undoubtedly benefit from the proximity of a more balanced Taurus, who is able to guide him when things go badly.

He will accept the advice of the Bull with amazing obedience, only it is necessary not to command him constantly and openly, lest he feel driven into a corner.

Aries of all ages and both sexes should be allowed to go ahead, without limiting them and without expressing hidden mistrust.

Indeed, silent distrust irritates the bright, hopeful, outspoken Aries even more than distrust spoken out loud.

It seems to him ominous, frightening, and sometimes simply horrifying.

We must not forget that Aries is a symbolic newborn Baby, just as Taurus is a symbolic Little One a little older.

If all the Ram's sudden impulses are constantly suppressed by Taurus's stony "no", he can turn into a neurasthenic suffering from persecution mania.

The wild temperament of Aries, of course, needs to be controlled from time to time, but it is better to do it carefully and delicately.

Aries, ruled by Mars, is a discoverer and generator of ideas, a leader. He always strives to penetrate into the very essence of phenomena; then Taurus enters into his natural creative activity, into the country that Aries has discovered, into his prosperous society, into a useful and necessary concept.

All human relationships and life itself must have a clear goal and a definite meaning for the Bull.

When there is a lack of obvious goal and usefulness, and thoughts are scattered and activity chaotic, he becomes confused and eventually retreats.

He is guided only by common sense and experience, and only by professing fidelity to his aspirations, this fixed Sun sign can remain true to itself. For Taurus, every thing and every person has a certain place and must remain there, serving their purpose and never trying to appear to be anything other than what they really are.

Aries behaves in a straightforward manner, ignoring the fact that both ends of this straight line go into infinity, while Taurus surrounds himself with the lessons of the past and cautious plans for the future. There can be no failures in his life associated with irresponsible actions.

The Ram can help the Ox break this circle, gift him with optimism and new ideas, and the Ox will try to bend the straight line of activity and feelings determined by Mars, at least into an arc, in order to protect him, if not from all, then from some of the disappointments that Aries will have to meet throughout his eventful life.

Since the Sun has a special power in the character of Aries, these people often think that victory is won even before the battle begins. Every Ram feels a connection with Spring, Rebirth.

This is the meaning of the existence of these souls - the miracle that they possess, sincerely present to other Sun signs.

Thus Aries simultaneously serve the human race and their own inner essence. Aries believes in the victory of life over death and of hope and conviction - over doubt.

However, behind his bravado hides a strange emotional vulnerability (karmic memory comes to him from Pisces, who are immediately before Aries on the Zodiac circle), and all attempts of the Earth sign to force him to turn off the usual path only increase his hidden vulnerability. Then Aries will either suddenly break all ties with Taurus, or agree to adopt a life position that is completely unnatural for a Mars person and will pay for it with neurosis.

Since the union of Aries, who is capable of going ahead, and Taurus, who is always full of desires, is an alloy of enormous power, ancient astrologers warned that the mixture of the qualities of Aries and Taurus, if not balanced, can lead to great cruelty.

This can occur during the development of personality in childhood or manifest itself in the relationship of the Ram and the Bull, depending on the planetary positions of both at birth.

If the Sun and Moon are not in harmony at the birth of the Ram and the Bull, the danger of cruelty is especially great. However, when the Sun's position at the birth of the Ram successfully corresponds to the Moon's position at the birth of the Ox (or vice versa) and if their Ascendants are mutually harmonious.

Taurus can help Aries soar to the heights of happiness, supporting his emotional flight with warmth and kind participation.

Aries can also lift Taurus to the heights of imagination, from where a picture of the future opens up, as huge and majestic as in the wildest dreams of the Ox.
