Libra and Taurus Compatibility
Libra and Taurus are both ruled by Venus. However, they are of different elemental natures. Libra is air and Taurus is earth, so the expression of their Venus rulership will be different. Taurus expresses their Venus energy in a physical way; through touch, material gain, and the senses (especially taste and smell!) Libra, who values beauty and social harmony, expresses Venus through sight and ideas.
Both value the good life, but what defines “the good life” could be different for each. For Libra, it means getting glammed up and painting the town red. Taurus, however, would rather stay in their peaceful domain cuddling with their lover over a delicious homemade meal.

Strengths
Libra and Taurus both value harmony within their relationships. So it’s unlikely they’ll have explosive arguments or disagreements. When they do disagree, Libra is likely to be quick to do what’s necessary to restore peace. And after some time, once the notoriously stubborn Taurus sees how admirable Libra’s selflessness is, they could learn to be more flexible as well. So in this sense, Libra sets a good example for Taurus.
Libra will love the devotion and commitment Taurus gives them. And Taurus will quietly find themselves enamored with Libra’s charms and social grace. They each appreciate beauty and refinement, so they will adore how the other represents these qualities in ways different from themselves.
Weaknesses
Taurus is very loyal and committed in love, and they expect the same in return. Libra’s airy energy can leave Taurus questioning if they actually have a firm hold on Libra. They may doubt that Libra can give the commitment they’d like from their partner.
As for Libra, they need a certain level of freedom. Their friends and social circles are of utmost importance to them. Libra is a social butterfly and may crave more social stimulation and nights on the town with their Taurus partner.
Chemistry
Venus grants both Libra and Taurus different brands of the same sensuality. They will both be masters at setting the mood, they will be equally attentive to the other’s needs. They will be sure the lighting is right, and that they look and smell good. However for Taurus, this sets the stage for a deeper merging of souls. For Libra, setting the stage is simply part of the show. While they will find great pleasure with one another, Taurus might crave to reach deeper into the core of their airy Libra.
Advice
Libra might not enjoy hiking in the woods with Taurus, and Taurus might not want to go to ritzy gallery openings multiple times a week, but it’s important that these two find activities that they do enjoy doing together. This shouldn’t be too difficult but may take some compromise.
Taurus should also develop greater flexibility. Libra will often go along with Taurus to maintain the peace, but if Taurus doesn’t allow Libra to have a say sometimes, Libra could come to grow bored with them. Libra and Taurus are at their strongest when they are both happy and enjoying life. So they should cultivate more of this. If they can, they will have a relationship full of beauty and pleasure.
