Neighbouring signs, 30° apart (a semi-sextile). Side by side on the wheel, you share little by nature, and each sign tends to react against the one before it. The bond asks for patience, and it teaches.
The elements
Fire and earth are unlike elements: in the old language one is active and the other receptive. This is no verdict against you, but you will have to learn each other’s language, because what feels natural to one can feel foreign to the other.
In love
In love, Aries falls fast and wants passion, honesty and a partner who can keep up; boredom kills its feelings sooner than conflict.
In love, Taurus is loyal, sensual and slow to commit; it loves through touch, food and constancy, and fears change.
Counsel
Count to ten before you act, and finish what you begin.
Hold on to what is good, but let go of what has stopped growing.

What this comparison can and cannot say
This compares only the Sun signs, as the old almanacs did. A real comparison of two people, called synastry, reads both whole charts: the Moon, Venus, Mars and the Ascendant often matter more than the Sun. Read this as a first sketch, not a verdict.
