I'm a scorpio and I find that I'm always magnetically drawn to Taurus men. I mean I've met other guys of other signs whom I've liked, but they've never matched the intensity that I felt with all the taurus guys I have dated. I've even dated a scorpio man and well, scorpio+scorpio must mean sexual chemistry that's off the charts right? But even then it didn't compare. Seriously its like there's some serious sexual tension between Scorpio and Taurus.

Have you, as a scorpio or a taurus also felt this way?

Yes, that's why I have this stupid name and originally came ot this site. It sucks (for me, mainly bc I can't pursue it). Almost ruined my long-term relationship with a Sag I'm with, not to mention driving me to the brink of insanity for over a year. At first it started with seeing her outside of work, making eye contact, and just feeling frozen in time, feeling like I knew the person from somewhere, with strong sexual attaction of course. This led to finding out she works at my co. and in my building, passing each other from time to time. Never felt anything like it - completely nervous, legs would stiffen, felt like really energetic in a way I've never experienced. In her presence at other times, I would start to sweat really bad. We seemed to see each other more and more frequently, and it was so tense that I would just try to ignore her and avoid her.

Then she moved into my department, and onto my actual row at work. I figured out she was a Scorp just from her behavior the 2nd week on my row. From then on, I experienced some of the craziest emotional highs and lows - words can't do it justice. Called psychics, went to the Tarot lady, had Reiki healers do energy work on me, read every astrological/metaphysical book I could to try and figure it out. I would normally never go near any of this stuff. Anyway, definitely something to it. Have talked to many from both signs that have felt it, though some don't. I've found out subsequently that my closest friends through life have been Scorps or are Scorpio dominant, the actresses I've been most attracted to, and even actors I admire most, are Scorps...Its all very strange.

I don't know what you see but as a Taurus, Scorpio represent absolutely everything we want in love and in a partner. You have unmatched beauty in truth and honesty, some don't even need to doll them selves up because your natural beauty makes our hearts jump and your elegance captivates our senses.

I believe that there must be tension. And I also think to get the most out of this would be to hold off for as long as possible. I am sure once the fireworks happen, it will shake both beyond their core. I have met a Scorp a while back,and not a day has gone by since I first heard her angelic voice and seen her supernatural smile that I don't think of her. Before I go to sleep she is my last though and the first when I wake up. Your a blessing and a curse, but I bear this curse over and over again, I would change nothing...

I think we see our deeper self in one another, our security our feelings everything. Not like a mirror, really just our other extreme. Personally, I am intoxicated, even though I have also been on highs and lows now for almost a year and a half...

Thank you : $

I don't know how, but she wakes this inner passion inside of me, she rocks my foundations and I am flooded with emotions.

I think I am feeling a portion of what she sometimes feels so deep down in her heart. Scorps are really these deep emotional beings, and the emotions that she invokes in me are magical and I want to know more.

So calm on the outside, but yet so magical inside.

Some Scorps (Most?) see there emotions as a weakness, yet I think it is the most beautiful and precious part of who you are... And I would not mind one bit being drowned in the oceans of her hearts deepest emotions.

hahaha I'm loving the responses ๐Ÿ˜„

Although for me, it's kind of a shame. I have this intense attraction to taurus but in the long run, things never work out between the two of us. Taurus are just too fixed in their ways and stubborn, as am I, so we just end up clashing.

It's like a tease really. You have this amazing chemistry, but ultimately doomed to not pan out. ๐Ÿ˜›

Hahahaha, making fun of me are you ๐Ÿ˜›


That is fine. hahaha

I understand the stubbornness, but I have felt that since I have met her I am releasing most of my stubborn behavior. She has also mentioned to me a few times how with me she has been able to let go and just enjoy our time. Strangely, by doing this, the time we have spent together is always awesome since we actually end up doing something that we both liked hahaha

We have both told one another we can't always get everything they way we want it, and yet we do by this very release lol

You learn the most from your opposite. If Taurus/Scorpio weren't hopelessly drawn to each other the lessons would never be learned.

I had a Scorpio girl one time refer to it as "sexual tension"... I was so offended that's how she described the connection.



haha its how I refer to it too, but take it as a compliment if anything. It's not like I just view it as just sex and nothing else. It is a deep connection. As you know, us scorpios are very emotional so when we feel this sexual tension, its not just.. sex, its like...blow-your-mind magnetism if that makes any sense. It's like..."yeah I want to jump your bones (haha) but you also get under my skin in a way that no one else does" kind of thing

I see it as a shame also - a cruel joke the universe has played on the bulls...lol. Apparently alot of signs have tension with their opposite, but Scorpios are the most seductive so it makes it much worse. It works out with some, just takes maturity, depends on stages in life, other placements, etc. I could tell from just our flirtation that she and I would butt heads and ultimately it seemed it would fail. From our limited interaction I could also see the highs/lows; it was very erratic/unstable - both of us very hot/cold, and extremely prideful. I think bulls need things to be a little more even keel, for the sake of our temper, even at the expense of passion.

Ive noticed the connection. I dont think I could date a Taurus that had a Scorpio friend, or a Scorpio that had a Taurus friend lol. I went from being infatuated with a Scorpio, to being infatuated with a Taurus, and I've noticed the similarities between the two. I think there's more similarities than differences. Both stubborn, both sexual and emit a lot of sexual energy, both emotional and sensitive, both secretive, both can have harems, both very selective about who they let into their "circle," both can have skeletons from the secrecy, both powerful in their own way etc etc etc.

Both are very similar in how they pursue women too.

Yes exactly! Both me and my last taurus ex are both prideful people which is I think one of the main reasons we didn't work. I think taurus really doesn't like the drama but scorpio lives off the drama. Like we thrive off the pain in a way, it reminds us that we're in love. lol.

I can understand that, bc I felt that way in the dynamic. There is a beauty even in the suffering that comes from it. You definitely make us feel things we normally would not. But I think the issue is that Scorps seem better equipped to plumb the depths and emerge unscathed; its in their nature. Venus-ruled bulls ultimately just want to be at peace and enjoy the good things in life. I didn't know what I was getting into. At first its impossible to resist because I've never felt an energy like that before; one glance and I would feel this rush of euphoria, and it would last all day. The most basic way to put it is that I've never felt that I was that deeply in love before, never believed love *could* feel that way, or that things like "love at first sight" were even possible. But then the lows are so dark, so terrifying....It counterbalances it to the extent that you aren't sure even the greatest love is worth that kind of extreme pain.

You know it's funny my ex used to the say almost the exact same things! About how I made him feel a way he had never felt before and that he didn't realize it was even possible to feel this way. I don't know if I ever put him through extreme pain though, since most of the pain was his own really (he had clinical depression).

Same with the depression. When was his birthday? 3rd decan bulls tend to be darker, and struggle with depression and addiction.

All I'll say about this pairing is that even though we ended for very good reasons, when it was all over and I was by myself healing, it literally felt like someone had taken a knife and struck me straight in the chest with it. Like I was being stabbed in the heart. It's an intense connection. Not sure what that means, but its what I experienced. ๐Ÿ™‚



same, even with my limited experience....but with Satan holding the knife and continuing to twist it.

2nd decan, charming, persuasive, fatherly. See if the description below fits:

I've found the 3rd describes me strikingly well.

Holy crap hahaha this website makes him sound like Ted Bundy. Manipulative, charming and persuasive, and literally strangles people to death. O_O Perhaps I dodged a bullet here...

He was persuasive though. And a little emotionally manipulative. The irony in that. The manipulative scorpio being manipulated by a taurus who hates to be manipulated.

Does this count for moons? Him: Taur sun scorp moon / Me: Virgo sun Taur moon and I swear we are like the worlds strongest magnets. No matter how much I fight it we can't stay away from each other! Much like TLS, this relationship is the reason I really got into Astrology, psychics, soul mate & the like. It's like nothing I've ever felt before...it seems unreal at times. Almost 2 years later and my heart still races when he enters a room. Sometimes I feel like he acts more like a Scorp and I act like more like a Taur.

But when I thought about it I realized I have a lot of history with Scorps. My mom is a scorp and one of my most passionate relationships was with a scorp sun. Literally I thought we would murder each other. I don't think I can date a scorp sun, something about you guys...it's just TOOO MUCH! Even now that scorp and I are good friends we can talk about anything. But as soon as he ties to rekindle the relationship I head for the hills. He was just WAAAY too possessive. Borderline scary.

My question is WHY do you scorps hide your emotions so much? I mean I'm a Virgo and I hide my emotions, but you guys take the taco... Every scorp sun and now scorp moon I've ever met are like stone on the outside but let you tell it an emotional tornado on the inside. I only know this is true because my mother is this way. Everyone thinks she's the toughest woman on the face of the earth when actually she's probably the most sensitive person I know. Hmmm I think I just had an epiphany about my scorp moon guy. Are the mooners the same way with their emotions?

Weren't you the one posting on the 'twin flame' thing? Maybe your connection is explained better astrologically. Virgo/Taurus is always a pretty strong attraction and your moon is his sun. Add his Scorp moon into the mix and the obsessive nature of it all seems understandable. I've read that Scorp moons often seek to obessess and be obsessed over in love.

Alot of it has to do with our stubborn pride. I mean I could be pining away for an ex on the inside but I would never on my life show it in front of him because that would just be ego-crushing. We don't want to be seen as weak or pathetic.

Yup that's me and upon reading this I was thinking the same thing...or at least that it has a lot to do with it. I keep meaning to see a psychic about it but I've yet to get around it. Yea there's definitely some obsessing going on here...on both sides. But like you I fear the intensity of this connection.

Yes I totally get this reactions and would act the same way about an ex. But what about new relationships? Why so timid? I don't think it's all his fault, I do have a tendency to push away, plus he's got that venus aires...Honestly I'm just now almost 2 years later learning how to understand loving you guys. It's like perfect math...lol

I think it's just in our nature to have our guard up. Like we're very sensitive deeply emotional people and when we love someone, we love deeply. Hence, we don't open up to just anyone for the fear of getting hurt. I think this is particularly true with scorpio guys, they tend to be quieter which comes off as shy but really I think they're scoping you out to see if they want to let you in.

Impulsv shared some stuff with me on TF's that was really helpful. She has this free e-book that had a really sober/objective perspective on the whole dynamic. You should ask her about that. There's also a psychological state called "limerence" that people should consider alongside the Twin Flame stuff. Many psychologists think its extremely common; its basically getting stuck in the infatuation/obsession phase of love. Its very interesting because there is often a sense with limerence that you are actually tuned in telepathically with the object of affection, they report synchronicities, see signs, etc.

The psychics (mostly empaths) told me nothing new (with the exception of some past-life stuff, which, who can confirm?); it was mostly only what I had already discovered. It was interesting that they could know some of the things they did, but not worth the money I spent to bolster my (already strong) belief in psychic abilities.

I played this game forever with the Scorp. Once we both felt a type of rejection, we played it like we didn't care - both did a terrible job as we would still catch each other staring at one another throughout the day, and still do. Your bull is probably feeling like you are but too proud to say it. This is how this dynamic goes. Strong attraction, strong repulsion.

"It was interesting that they could know some of the things they did, but not worth the money I spent to bolster my (already strong) belief in psychic abilities."

See that stmt is why I've yet to see a psychic. I'm just not totally on board with the whole idea of it. Plus I kind of look at it as cheating (if it really does work). Like somethings I think you're supposed to learn by doing. I don't really want someone to tell me YES you guys are destined to be together for the rest of your lives. A) I'm unlikely to completely believe that. B) I want to discover that on my own & C) I don't want that information to influence my actions or the things I'm willing to accept from him in the name of the psychic being "right"

To me the TF thing is the future and right now I'm dealing with the present and what's happening in the present. Do I believe in the possibility of the TF concept? Yes. Do I think that that concept may apply to us (myself & my bull)? Yes. BUT only in the concept that I think our friendship is timeless. I try very hard not to allow the TF concept to dictate the "Now" with us. To me it's just evidence of the strength of our connection.

^^^That's all very good. Good to have a healthy dose of skepticism with that stuff, bc at some point you may need to let go. With the psychics, yes to all you said, and really it can become just a surrogate addiction/obsession. It does for many people. I found myself wanting to talk to one constantly, sifting for any bit of new relevaant information. The more you talk to, you *do* get contradictory info. as well. Some are gifted, some not so much. Some can tune into what you are afraid of or feeling, moreso than what is. And if you're trying to get over someone, I think it adds fuel to the fire for sure.

It's kind of tragic isn't it? When two people still feel the same way but both are too prideful to risk putting their heart on the line to find out. But then again, I guess that's when you know it's not meant to be. If you really loved someone you would say fuck it and throw your pride to the wind to get that person back.

Yes this is totally me...If i allow myself I will use the positive feedback as an excuse to stay in a relationship. So I'm very careful with what I allow myself to participate in. I want to be sure I'm honestly doing what's best for me and my future and not deluding myself. It can be hard to balance but I try to remain brutally honest with myself. When things get really confusing I shut down all outside input, I won't check my horoscope or even read the Taur forum as I know I'll just try to stitch together some positive information to give myself an excuse to try... May sound crazy but I know I do it.

On a positive note...the bull and I are rebuilding our trust and I'm doing my best to stop running from the intensity and just plant my feet and see where this thing will go once and for all. Admittedly I might be setting myself up for the greatest pain of my life. But it's a decision I MADE, not one that was given to me...

I still don't understand why a Taurus will stay with a partner they say they know is not right for them and never were from the start. They must be benefiting some how right? The Taurus I know is incredibly intelligent and staying with someone for no real purpose doesn't make sense. There is a reason behind it but they haven't shared this info.



i don't feel this is all taurus. But i do understand that taurus NEEDS security and financial stability. They need to make sure they are benefiting in that aspect. My taurus grandfather had to make sure he married a woman that would stay at home taking care of his babies and taking good care of his house that he financially provided for. (well it's part family heirloom, but still also from the muscle of his workload) There is NO time to be worried about other bullshit like finding out if the woman is a cray cray or disloyal. Must make sure of family background and CHARACTER. But then that's the older generation...so don't know how it is now.

Aww @Impulsv I'm glad to hear you're entertaining new guys. Try to enjoy yourself and not compare them to the Taurus. Easier said then done I know.

@Bliss I have a taur asc/moon and I can say that I've done this. I knew my ex-leo and I were done for, for many years before we finally separated. Even to the point that he wanted kids and I vehemently do not. But once I make a commitment to someone it literally takes an act of congress to get me to break that commitment. There's literally a tribunal in my head that I have to take the case to and if the tribunal does not agree then I cannot not leave the relationship. So I just wait for a sufficient amount of bad stuff to happen in order for the tribunal to approve the motion to dismiss the relationship OR until they leave me. Which was the case with the Leo and I'm sooo thankful he finally did. I probably never would have. Sad I know. Listening to my bull talk about his ex who cheated, I can tell he goes through the same thing. Maybe some Taur suns have a better explanation...

It's kind of tragic isn't it? When two people still feel the same way but both are too prideful to risk putting their heart on the line to find out. But then again, I guess that's when you know it's not meant to be. If you really loved someone you would say fuck it and throw your pride to the wind to get that person back.



It is; I tend to see life as a tragedy in general though, so I just kind of accept it as tragic, without having to say it wasn't true love. I'm not sure about it not being "meant to be", because it seems we are free to create our own destiny to an extent. I guess I take responsibility for not pursuing it out of fear. If you say "oh well, it wasn't meant to be", its almost like you are using a notion of destiny as a scapegoat. If there IS another kind of love that is more real than the connection I felt with this girl, I certainly have not experienced it. I do know that. For me, being a depressed Taurus, lol....its not so much that it wasn't real love, its that if it was, I'm not worthy of it, will ruin it, hurt others in the process of acquiring it, etc. Its also that when I feel something SO powerful, I know it is a risk; I risk the pain of losing it which is as intense, if not moreso than the joy. Bulls generally dislike risk.

I don't believe that everything is predestined but I do believe to a certain extent that things happen for a reason. Sometimes you just know when that person wasn't the right one, even if you have the most intense feelings for him. You don't know how you know or why, but you just do. Its like an intuition. I guess I feel like if I'm not willing to risk it all for this person, then clearly I value myself and my ego over him. Because who knows, I could have my ex back if I just begged him to take me back. But there's no way in hell I'm doing that because I care about myself more in the end. So in that sense, I can confidently say it wasn't love. It was an intense connection, but not love. And therefore was "meant to" fall apart. So that in the future I can find someone I actually am willing to risk all for. But that's just my case.

In your case, it seems as if you feared losing it so much that you lost it. A self fulfilling prophecy. So in the end, the outcome you feared happe

I can relate to your fears...but it's just soo sad that you won't take the chance with your scorp. Though I commend you honoring your commitment with your Sag. But has the love you clearly feel for the Scorp affected your relationship with your Sag? It seems like feelings that potent can't possibly be hidden...especially from someone you're intimate with.

Tls if u can explain
This is my theory
It's easier , safer, a scorp
Has no problem delving into the depth. Taurus I sense kinda fear it. So safer to stay with an easy relationship in their minds scorp to complicated.
Even though I don't think we are lol



Yeah, that's how it is for me. It makes more sense for me to be in the stable/comfortable relationship. I don't need to feel like I am constantly having to impress someone. I'm accepted completely for who I am. There's a danger to that in it sort of enables my laziness like I know the Scorp wouldn't do. I'm not called higher in a lot of ways, but there definitely is a trade-off. Its a path of least resistance sort of thing.

Totally. At some points it was so bad that my Sag touching me felt like nails on a chalkboard and I had no desire for intimacy and was daydreaming about the Scorp the ENTIRE time when with her. It was horrible and I was torn apart for a while by the guilt. I rode it out though. That changed with time, and we are definitely getting to a better place now. We're intimate again and enjoying it - it isn't fake....the daydreaming (and regular dreaming) has subsided almost entirely. I can definitely say I am happy with my Sag. Sometimes I think you have to ride out the emotions and stay loyal to a commitment even though feelings tell you otherwise. Feelings can deceive us.

I actually felt this intuition with her from day one. But that could also be about the timing of a relationship - knowing intuitively you or they are not at the right stage in life. I think life really does entail risk, and we definitely could ruin a good thing, miss an opportunity for true love, etc. I wouldn't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater over a vague intuition that some undefined thing wasn't right. It could also be a fear thing that you confuse with intuition. Intuition can be kinda fuzzy IMO, even when its strong.

While I wish you would have tried with the Scorp, I can appreciate you're point here. I mean this is essentially what we all end up talking about when someone is in a relationship and meets someone else and leaves their mate for the new person and the new feelings. Instead of just working through those feelings with your partner and honoring the commitment to your partner. If you had just dropped your Sag for the Scorp, I'm sure many a woman would have commented on what an insensitive fuck you were to the Sag for dropping her like that. Double edge sword I guess...

Question: Do you think you would have given the Scorp a try if you were single?

I think there will always be ego involved, and we all have personal failings in that regard. And to foist off an ego-based act of self-preservation as a deficit in the strength of love, again *might* just be your ego dictating how you view the connection in retrospect (not saying it is this way for you). We can tell ourselves all sorts of lies and believe them. Sometimes we have to in order to move on or survive. I think I've done this and am doing it now. I think I actually have to. I don't see another way right now. Its sort of like making yourself forget about the good times. Because you care about yourself more than another at a particular point in time may have more to do with your own spiritual development, evolution as a person, etc. than how real the love could have been. I think many people miss out on true love in this life, for ego-based reasons. The person you find in the future that you're willing to risk all for, may be more about you being ready for love, than love finally being more real. That may seem like semantics, but I guess I'm saying maybe its not so much about "the one" and how they feel, but whether or not you're in the right spot.

In my case, it was more about just knowing I couldn't abandon one person, for the sake of another. I have a kid, and my Sag is like a 2nd mother to her, so there were just a lot of factors. Fear definitely played a role in all of it though. And I have a fear of abandonment, so I generally push people away anyway.
