These Are The Longest-Lasting Relationships For Each Earth Sign (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)

Taurus

Virgo

There truly is no other perfect match for Taurus than a Virgo. An earth-earth combination is always amazing because it builds from the same solid ground. Both Taurus and Virgo are stable, reliable creatures who seek stability in their lives. They’re not the type to have short-term flings. Instead, they put a lot of value on building a solid foundation for a relationship, full of hard work and respect. Both signs aren’t the most vulnerable and only open up to people when they feel comfortable and have developed a level of trust, understanding, and respect they still are quite loyal and once they’re in a relationship, they’re in it for the long haul. And this pair can last for a lifetime.

Cancer

A Taurus and Cancer pairing can be deeply nurturing and harmonious, with Cancer’s emotional depth and support and Taurus’ urge for stability. Both signs understand and appreciate each other’s emotional needs. Taurus won’t talk about their feelings to just anyone unless they feel fully comfortable with and trust their partner, and Cancer will be that nurturing, safe space for them. Taurus is grounded and reliable, which gives Cancer a sense of relief from being in a committed, comforting relationship. Besides their loyalty, trustworthiness, and shared life values, they’re both quite romantic and sensual too, making them all-around a perfect duo.

Virgo

Cancer

Although this earth-water duo can have some flaws, they also share many qualities that can make a loving, harmonious relationship work between them. Virgo is more analytical and practical (and a perfectionist), expressing their love (most likely) through acts of service. Cancer, on the opposite hand, is deeply sensitive (and needy) and will express their love through emotional support. Although they are different, they still balance each other out and appreciate what each other provides. They complement each other’s needs well and this can create a loving and supporting environment — as long as they are patient, understanding, and communicate. These two can create a strong bond based on mutual support and similar values of commitment and family.

Capricorn

An earth-earth duo is always solid. Both Capricorn and Virgo are practical, hardworking, and have a strong sense of responsibility. They are reliable and dedicated in their lives and their relationships, which is what makes them such an iconic duo. They understand one another deeply, especially how much they value loyalty and stability. Both signs aren’t the most sensitive and won’t sit in their emotions for too long (if at all) — in fact, they’re more analytical, critical, and persevering than most. They’re more focused on and dedicated to their careers and any projects they’re working on, more so than in love. They might face challenges expressing their emotions in a relationship but once they know there’s something to work on, they will fix it. Overall, they have a strong potential for being a perfect, compatible match.

Capricorn

Cancer

Capricorn and Cancer are a surprisingly compatible couple. While they will have their evident differences, it doesn’t mean they’re incapable of putting in the effort to make the relationship work. In fact, they both value stability and security and will be loyal in their relationships, striving for something long-lasting. Capricorns tend to be a bit more reserved and practical and won’t show their emotions unless they feel comfortable doing so, and deeply emotional Cancer wants to be that safe space for them. Capricorn is disciplined and ambitious and this inspires Cancer to be the same. Cancer needs to be patient with Capricorn’s logical brain and reserved heart and Capricorn needs to be patient with Cancer’s neediness and moodiness. If they want this relationship to last, they need to have effective communication and patience, and they can make this a beautiful relationship.

Scorpio

This is an unexpected power couple. They both are deeply committed and willing to go the extra mile in their relationship in order to build a solid foundation. They are both incredibly ambitious, dedicated individuals in both their lives and their relationships. Scorpio is known for their intensity and can help Capricorn tap into their emotions and express themselves and Capricorn is known for their reserved, practical nature and can be a grounding for Scorpio’s feelings. They will, of course, face challenges: they both have strong personalities and their differing approaches might cause disruption, but as long as they put in an effort to find a balance, they can make it work — and make it last.
