Scores are calculated from sun-sign astrology alone: the angle between the two signs on the zodiac wheel, their elements and their modalities. A full birth chart includes the Moon, Venus, Mars and the houses, and can shift this picture considerably.
Taurus and Gemini — the verdict
Adjacent signs with nothing shared: Taurus wants depth in a few things, Gemini wants a taste of everything. The semi-sextile makes each one faintly interesting to the other rather than obviously compatible. Taurus finds Gemini's restlessness unserious; Gemini finds Taurus' pace suffocating — and yet Gemini talks Taurus out of the rut, which is worth something.
The astrology
- Aspect
- Semi-sextile (30°)
- Elements
- earth / air
- Modalities
- fixed / mutable
- Rulers
- Venus / Mercury
They sit at a semi-sextile — next-door neighbours on the wheel, close enough to borrow from each other and too close to see each other clearly.
What works
- Gemini keeps Taurus from stagnating
- Taurus gives Gemini a stable base to return to
- Both enjoy the good things — one through the senses, one through novelty
Where it strains
- Taurus needs consistency; Gemini needs variety, and neither will fake it
- Gemini's word-speed exhausts a sign that thinks before speaking
- Different definitions of security entirely
The one thing to get right
Taurus: do not read every change of plan as a broken promise. Gemini: keep the small ones anyway.
