I heard that there the biggest problem for us in the zodiac....like were the kings of the jungle but the taurus matches our strength(perhap even stronger)
when the these two clash is it a big spectacle— the biggest battle of the zodiac if not who is eg.scorpio vs leo/ taurus vs scorpio

What? In general, Taureans crave harmony.

El Greca, I think LisforLeo meant that she has Scorpio rising...I'm not sure, but I looked at her info in her profile and nothing is Scorpio but her rising isn't listed.

LisforLeo, if you do have a Scorp ascendent, that is really weird...we almost have ALL the same placements except for our moons.

*musses Yama's hair*

He was saying that no other sign can really beat a bull, HOWEVER, in general, Taureans are generally harmonious creatures..I believe.

"leos dont mess with scorpios"

I love messing with Scorpios, under the right circumstances (and sometimes even under the wrong ones).

"He was saying that no other sign can really beat a bull, HOWEVER, in general, Taureans are generally harmonious creatures..I believe."

But he was saying "they", why would he say that instead of "we"?

Again-"no other sign can really beat a bull, but they are peace-loving animals anyway."

One moment he is speaking about signs, the other moment, he is using plural form, so it looks like he is still talking about other signs, and not Taurus, how can you conclude he is talking about bulls? It makes no sense in the context.

I think the bull, in this case, represents not only the animal, but partly Taureans as well. So it's not really a complete change from an abstract concept to animals. (MercInAries, please correct me if I'm wrong...lol.)

I think he is enjoying this Leo/Scorpio grammer-off.
Anyway wh, symbolism, as related as it may be to the subject, does not explain such a drastic change.
For example-"A lot of countries don't like the U.S.A because it is red white and blue."

But, Yama, the grammar is fine. Because, as you can see:

"no other sign can really beat a bull, but bulls are peace-loving animals anyway."

When bulls is inserted in the plural, which is the original singular subject of the sentence, the meaning of the sentence is clear. Why, then, according to you, is it still incorrect to replace "bulls" with "they", when, essentially, both words refer to the same subject?

Because prior to that wh, he was clearly speaking about signs not animals, just because something symbolizes something else it doesn't mean the two things are interchangeable, like the USA->flag example I gave.

Oh, Yama. Let's copy and paste, shall we?

taurus has brute strength, stamina and horns, leos are cats, with claws and teeth.
i think both are evenly matched, it depends on who gets lucky.
no other sign can really beat a bull, but they are peace-loving animals anyway.

The very beginning of the statement includes references to how the signs compare to their corresponding animals. The relation was obvious from the first sentence.

Now, using your example (purely for hypothetical purposes):

The colors of the U.S. flag are closely tied to its attitude of superiority.
I resent this attitude of superiority.
I hate the U.S. because it is red, white, and blue.

Makes more sense now, I believe.

Yes, he is using that as a clear symbol, it is evident since he is mentioning the horns, Leos being cats, etc.
Anyway, why would he change from singular form to plural all of the sudden?

Singular ---> Plural has already been covered.

I'll draw upon my immense reserves of Leonine generosity and copy it for ya:

"But, Yama, the grammar is fine. Because, as you can see:

'no other sign can really beat a bull, but bulls are peace-loving animals anyway.'

When bulls is inserted in the plural, which is the original singular subject of the sentence, the meaning of the sentence is clear. Why, then, according to you, is it still incorrect to replace 'bulls' with 'they', when, essentially, both words refer to the same subject?"

We don't need to beat him, can't you see I've already accomplished that? 😉

*pats self on back*

Holy shit, I'm so damn smart I can hardly live with my own damn AWESOMELY BADASS self.

The question is why would he change it from singular to plural? The problem is that he is totally mixing different things if he means what you say he means, astrological signs and animals, symbols and actual things are not interchangeable.

"The colors of the U.S. flag are closely tied to its attitude of superiority.
I resent this attitude of superiority.
I hate the U.S. because it is red, white, and blue."

This example is flawed, because you made a sentence that connects the two, while he didn't.

The first sentence in his post is used as a symbol to symbolize Taurus' strength, it is a tool, why would discuss actual animals, without refering to the thing they symbolize?

Oh, stop. Now you're just being difficult.

"The problem is that he is totally mixing different things if he means what you say he means, astrological signs and animals, symbols and actual things are not interchangeable."

Exactly. He's not interchanging them, because they were so closely tied to begin with.
