Routines and daily patterns create a sense of security for both signs. While Scorpio men tend to be a bit more energetic than sweet, laid-back Taurus women, they both value stability in their daily lives (as well as romantic relationships).

Potential Challenges

Scorpio men and Taurus women are both extremely stubborn. Both Scorpio and Taurus are fixed signs, which means they’re the “doers” of the zodiac. They’re driven, hardworking, and persistent—but also very stubborn. So, if they argue or disagree about something, neither sign will likely want to give in or let the other “win” the argument, and they may struggle to see things from the other’s point of view.^{[7]

- Compatibility Tip: Taurus and Scorpio, you may not be able to agree on everything, but if you can at least compromise and work together to find solutions that work for both of you, it’ll be easier to move past arguments.
- At the end of the day, the most important thing is respecting one another’s points of view. That doesn’t mean you need to admit that you’re wrong; it just means agreeing to disagree and accepting that you have different opinions.
Scorpio men are one of the most intensely jealous zodiac signs; as independent as they are, they also demand a lot of time and attention from their partners. Meanwhile, Taurus women also have a jealous side (though it isn’t as intense as Scorpio’s), and if either sign has reason to doubt the other, it may immediately trigger their jealousy.
