Fixed Earth and Cardinal Water
These two are reserved at first, and want to take their time getting to know each other while dating. They're both looking for a sure thing, and won't rush pell mell into romance. Taurus loves the sensual pleasures, not least of which is eating, and Cancer is all too eager to indulge along with them. After the first fifty lowkey dates, there may be subtle, indirect overtures of affection. Once the floodgates are open, these two are cozy lovers happy to root in one spot.
Taurus is looking for material security, Cancer for emotional security and visions of a shared future start to emerge, perhaps a dream home. Taurus is possessive, but Cancer doesn't mind, and might even secretly consider it a show of love. The steady, loyal nature of Taurus fulfills the Cancerian longing for something enduring. Both are fairly domestic, and happy to land somewhere and start accumulating things, kids and memories. The ritual of making and sharing meals together can be an important aspect of their relationship. They're compatible in the bedroom, as well, since they bring together the physical sensuality of Taurus with the emotional depth of Cancer. This is a match that may get off to a slow start, but stays together for the long haul.
