Okay, so yesterday my buddy Jess called me freaking out about her Taurus boyfriend. She’s a Virgo, and apparently some online horoscope said their 2019 love match was doomed. She asked, “Will this even work?!” Being the nosy friend, I dug into this whole Taurus-Virgo thing for her.
First, I grabbed my laptop and just Googled “Taurus and Virgo 2019 compatibility” like anyone would. Tons of sites popped up – AstroStyle, Cafe Astrology, random blogs. Skimmed through like five of ’em. Noticed right away that some said “great match!” while others warned “might be boring.” Total mess. Like, which one do you even believe?
What the Stars Said vs. Reality
Most sites agreed on a few things:
- Earth signs = stable – Both stubborn as hell but loyal.
- 2019 vibes – Saturn in Capricorn supposedly made ’em too practical. Romance? Nah, more like budgeting together.
- Biggest fear – Virgo overthinking every tiny flaw, Taurus refusing to talk about feelings.
But here’s where it got wild. Some claimed Mercury retrograde months would wreck their communication. Others said Jupiter would save ’em. Like, pick a side, universe! I screenshot the chaos and texted Jess: “Girl, it’s a coin toss.”
How I Tested This Mess
Didn’t wanna trust random websites, so I did three things:
- Polled friends – Asked two Taurus-Virgo couples from my book club. One pair fought over chores constantly (Virgo wanted things spotless, Taurus left dishes out). The other? Married 10 years. Their secret? “We ignore horoscopes and just compromise.”
- Stalked Reddit – Searched Reddit threads. Found 2019 posts with Taurus/Virgo couples complaining about the same stuff: Virgos nagging, Tauruses shutting down. Not astrology – just human stuff.
- Checked planets myself – Pulled up a free birth chart site (didn’t pay, obviously). Compared Jess’s chart with her guy’s. Their Venus signs actually vibed! Moons? Not so much. But again, who knows.
The Final Answer
After all that digging? Told Jess straight up:
- Horoscopes give zero guarantees. 2019’s stars said maybe good, maybe bad. Useless.
- Taurus-Virgo pairs can work if they talk instead of assuming planets control their fights.
- Her boyfriend forgetting anniversaries? That’s him being lazy, not Saturn.
She laughed and said, “So it’s all bull?” Pretty much. They’re still together now in 2024 – without ever checking another compatibility chart. Moral of the story? Stars might be fun, but cleaning up your own mess matters way more.
