A compatible sign for a Taurus might be different from what you'd expect for an earth sign. After all, the bull is not your typical, run-of-the-mill earth sign.
Taurus Traits and Qualities
Each element has certain qualities that it brings to the signs. Earth signs are all about containing and forming. Earth signs like to be needed and feel as though they are in charge of their part of the world. A Taurus can be stubborn like the proverbial mountain that doesn't yeild to man; you can rarely budge Taurus once that person's mind is made up, so don't even try.

Fire and Earth Signs
Fire and earth can work, but it will be a struggle of wills. The natural tendency for earth is to smother fire or at the least attempt to contain it somewhat unsuccessfully.

Sagittarius wants to travel, but Taurus prefers to spend vacation money on home improvements. As you can see, this couple won't agree on lifestyle.
Air and Earth Signs
Dust storm best describes this combination. Earth won't budge, and air will simply dance circles all around earth. If earth tries to hold on to air and confine air, earth will be disappointed. Air will simply whirl out of earth's grasp and fly away.
Aquarius and Taurus
Aquarius confounds Taurus. Aquarius will rebel against Taurus's attempt to ground the water bearer. Taurus is loyal and in this earth sign, it creates a kind of possessiveness and even jealousy. Freedom loving Aquarius won't tolerate this kind of behavior in a relationship and needs to be able to come and go without accountability. Taurus will expect and demand to know Aquarius's whereabouts at all times.
Gemini and Taurus
Gemini is like twin tornadoes that Taurus tries to catch and harness. Gemini excites Taurus, but simply can't hold on to the perpetual motion that embodies this sign. Action and change drive the twins while stability, and putting down roots is what Taurus needs. Gemini considers roots as nothing more than tethers that prevent free movement. It won't take Gemini long to sever those bindings and flitter away to a new adventure.
Libra and Taurus
Libra appreciates the finer things in life just like Taurus, but Libra needs a very active social life, something Taurus finds tiresome. Libra also enjoys the art of flirting, and Taurus will view this as a betrayal. Libra can be wishy-washy at times which will try Taurus's patience. Taurus is capable of making choices and decisions and won't understand Libra's ability to see all sides of all issues. This skill makes it difficult for Libra to choose sides when Taurus views such issues as very black and white.
Earth and Earth Signs
Earth with earth creates more of the same. Two earth signs can become as formidable as a mountain. Equally stubborn, there could be rocky roads ahead. Compromise is the only way two earth signs can work together and stay together.
Taurus and Taurus
Taurus is a mirror image of self in this relationship. Too much of the same may create insurmountable obstacles. This relationship will present some unique obstacles, mainly self.
Virgo and Taurus
Virgo appeals to Taurus' practical side. Both are loyal, and both appreciate the perfection of beautiful things. This makes both signs very critical of life as they constantly assess and evaluate. When they turn this on each other, it can be painful and destroy the relationship.
Capricorn and Taurus
Capricorn is Taurus's best earth match. Both love creating a home and enjoy the stability that hard work and saving money gives them. This couple finds comfort and security in material possessions, so they'll have a very nice home and enjoy spending time there.
