FAQ
Are Taurus and Libra a good match for long-term?
Yes, when structure supports harmony. Favor Saturn help (e.g., Saturn trine Venus), routine check-ins, and clear money agreements. Without this, indecision vs. stubbornness erodes goodwill.
What is the biggest challenge for Taurus–Libra?
Decision-making. Set deadlines, define decision owners, and keep a “reconsider date.” This honors Taurus’s need for closure and Libra’s need for fairness.
How can they keep passion alive?
Mix ritual and novelty: anchor intimacy with predictable evenings, then seasonally add fresh experiences. Venus–Mars harmony (e.g., Venus sextile Mars) helps—curate music, scent, and lighting to fit the mood.
