What 'signs' or 'clues' does everyone look for when you start up with someone new? Naturally, the best thing to do is to talk about your feelings, but I mean in those early early stages (perhaps) when feelings may only start to form, because they aren't always instantaneous. Do you take notice of the way he/she touches you (or not), the way he/she looks at you, etc.?And next..do signs tend to go about this differently? Like an Aquarius or Gemini might continually engage the object of their affection in conversation. I'm sure other signs are more forward-like Leo and Aries. But what about say...Taurus, as an example? Just wondering how everyone approaches this. Thanks. IP: Logged |

Some people might be uncomfortable with constant hugs by someone they don't know well. I'm talking about that awkward stage. IP: Logged |

As a fellow Aqua here touching at first is a no-no. I`m totaly put off by touchers. Cappy rising is suspicious and Virgo moon wonders where them hands have been I prefer an engaging smile followed with stimulating conversation. Build the trust factor. That way you can figure out why s/he is a toucher and get a good idea where them hands have been... After that well..... Taurus has no hidden agenda in my onion. I enjoy their earthy manner in conversations and relationships. They find us quite entertaining as well as exasperating. They make beautiful children as mine are a gift from one juniperb IP: Logged |

As always Juniperb, you have put a big smile on my face. Remember, those children are half-Aquarius as well. I agree about the touching. "Spaghetti Arms" is the name we wuld give to those guys. Are Taureans affectionate? Even playfully so? I know that's a vague, general question. "No hidden agenda"...I can see that. So what you see is what you get? IP: Logged |

Yup, pretty much. I find them extremely affectionate. In all the right ways. Not clingy or gushy. Earthy is the best word for me . They say what they mean too. No alluding to anything. Well, sometimes they try, but it`s so clumbsy you see right thru it and boldy ask "what the h**l are you getting at? Spit it out and they will!! So you had better be prepared for it I love their stable presentation. Underneath the assured exterior, I find some esteem issues. They seem to feel they need to be more than they are. I think that causes unhappyness for them. My mom was one as well and she was that way too. No one is the perfect mom, wife, sister ect and my onion is they think they should be. They are wonderful people in my unbiased onion juniperb IP: Logged |

It's where most of my healing energy comes from, i've decided.The placement in the 12th can be linked with sociopathic tendancies (yes, be very afraid! muhahahah!!!!!).. in taurus im not sure what its' connotations are. It just seems to me alot of my energy from that sun square gets poured into it. Oh.. it also opposes my Ceres with 0 degrees too.. which makes me something of a kamikaze healer. I distance heal a headache.. i get a headache. a bit stupid i know but hey, it's me... IP: Logged |

Oxychick, I am a Taurus and unusually unaffectionate off the bat. But with Aquarian it's hard not to try, it's the challenge I guess. I touched an Aqua once on the arm and he jumped about 30 feet and hurt himself. I am careful who I touch simply because men hurt themselves. But I didn't know it was an Aqua thing until later. Some touching is okay with Taurus, gentle pats and light touching on the arm, shoulders, back, neck, anywhere that is not the leg or torso. Animals equate rough touching with ownership. Did you know that? So soft all over touching says I love you, but don't own you. Rather than just jumping into it. It's easy to forget the small touches.I know a Sag who practically jumps you and licks your face, cute but not me. That is not affectionate to me, it's the small touches leading up to.. I am really funny about anyone getting down and touching my legs or obviously my upper torso. It was an Aqua who was doing the leg touching and I accidentally kicked at him. So, Aquas have funny rules about touching. We like to know what the rules are too, what are the expectations. Libras and Taureans are really big on standards and expectations, we need to know what's correct. Now that I have shared, I think that Taurus likes a back massage most of all so if you are good at that you will get far. That's how I am always seduced. That or ice cream, hand holding and a request for a back massage because Taureans like to be the one to do, not to react. If there is anything a Taurus can do for you at all, they will be very happy. We are like Virgos that way, it's the small tokens, calls, gestures, keep in touch. A Taurus likes to do physical things, arrange things, paint, decorate, anything Venusian. Ask him to buy flowers. But beware finish what you start with physical touching, or else you will have a very cranky Taurus. once a Taurus is used to you being around he or she will become emotionally attached to you, especially if you have routines in common, and will miss you but never stalk you like other signs. I have found Aquas to be very frugal with affection even in the relationship, and it's hard for a Taurus to ask, but very necessary. Be prepared to do a lot of receiving. I wouldn't worry about seducing a Taurus once you are around a lot, you are accepted and the Taurus is waiting on your move. Taureans do expect you to be as secure, and be able to make a move, when the ball is in your court. A Taurus will never have a double standard or think less of you if you are assertive. Taureans are great friends and for that reason are great lovers, if you are in self doubt, or in need, or just down, always call a Taurus. If you get snobby, or don't play by your own rules, or break a promise, the Taurus will get confused. Be Secure and the Taurus will be secure, but if you are in doubt call him or else he will feel let down by your lack of faith in him. Taureans expect you to be stand by friends too, and have high standards that way. You have to be there when he is in doubt. Natasha IP: Logged |

And that is exactly why one can lose their heart to them On that note Aphrodite, if I approached a Taurus with my emotions and not my intellect, why, I`d have probably married a dozen of them by now juniperb IP: Logged |

Thats interesting Wevil! You may need to put up a protective barrier so the infliction doesn`t rebound to you. Or, is the the output of energy that gives the headache? There must be a way to minimize that juniperb IP: Logged |

Aphrodite, you mean there's another way? Natasha, I was hoping you'd stumble upon this post. I laughed at your description of the Aquarius who jumped and the Sag who licks. I'm not publicly affectionate right away with someone I don't know well so I usually notice when someone else is. For an Aquarius, I think I'm pretty affectionate (behind closed doors though, not quite in public). I’m very ticklish though and I’m easy prey for those guys (esp. Aries, Leo and Taurus) who like tickling. That’s the only time I kick while awake, but it’s usually by accident. I once kicked a Virgo in the shin while sleeping. I have relationships that very often are the results of friendships (friends who are attracted to each other). So that’s why I wonder if little touches here and there and other physical motions are indications of something more than just physical attraction. Ack, does that make sense? Back massage, eh? I'll keep that in mind. I was hanging out with my Taurus buddy last night and happened to show him some of my art, which I don't usually have handy. That seemed to spark something in him, that and my mentioning the fact that I recently cooked with success. I think the old adage "The way to a man's heart is through is stomach" was said with a Taurus man in mind. They also like fine things, like pretty clothes and lingerie, according to a couple of my male Taurus friends. ( I have a Leo moon which likes it too!) Juniperb, I see just what you mean about Taureans always thinking they need to be better. And it’s probably a good thing you haven’t married too many of them, I can’t imagine a Taurus man being ok with sharing his woman.

Yes Venus rules the back, and shoulders and really I like backs, necks, shoulders, it's very sexy.Taurus doesn't touch lightly, just because they like it doesn't mean they go there right away. It's an issue for them. So they have a lot of self control, especially if Venus is in Aries, it's a necessity. If you touch a Taurus lightly and he is touching you, then that means he cares for you, and Taureans do not care lightly either. They are not doormats and consider carefully before accepting someone, trust does not come easy, it looks easy. Taurus is a lot like a cross between Capricorn and Libra. Yes Taureans like fine foods, that are colourful, lingerie, playful innocence, respect for the Arts in any form, and respect for animals and people in general. Taureans are mainly strong but eager to care about a cause too usually animal rights or anything to do with children or the Arts. Taureans care deeply about the human condition, as much as Pisces. You can feel it when a Taurus is happy, it's like their heart opens and causes the face to suddenly glow like a child. I like Taurus men too, and Capricorns for that inner glow, it's like an inner smile that lights up from the inside. It makes me feel warm and cared for. I almost always fall for a man with Venus in an earth sign for that reason. Lingerie is okay but not too sexy, sensual is better. I have never met a Taurus who likes anything loud except for artwork on furniture, but not in clothing. But since you are an Aquarius your taste is probably simple and classic, that is good. Yes Taurus and Aquas have a strong attraction, the Taurus has one main concern about giving, and getting, they like you to be around in the morning and not act in a hurry to leave because they have a strong insecurity about asking for that, especially a man. You have to leave sometime but just be tactful without being too gushy. Taureans don't like to act gushy when they are. You may feel a cold shoulder if he has to act for affection, or gets proud, that's a good time to communicate verbally what you feel. Taureans are very proud, even worse than Leos.

Hey Natasha, This friend of mine has Venus in Aries. And Mars in Taurus. I know he finds the neck to be a sensual part of the body too. He has some Aqua in him too, and he is hysterically funny (he may have Gemini rising). Problem is, whereas I have a few female friends with Aqua Moons, I'm not used to guys with that placement.It's funny that you should mentioned them being happy-he was telling me about a recent trip and he was just..beaming. His whole face did light up. It made me happy just to be in the same room with him. I'm not much of a fan of guys with Venus in Earth signs, but I do find myself attracted to men with Mars in Earth signs (and Mars in Aqua and Gemini). IP: Logged |

OH! Can I just tell it?! Early this summmer (before the gem and I got back together) I had a fling with an Aqua!! HE was the touchy one Thing is, I didn't even have a clue that he was interested! Yet, when he approached... it was full throttle! Said I didn't talk much... I've never seen someone talk as much as him! Cute! Sort of took the pressure from me. So the purpose of that story is... Aquas are pretty hot Don't ask... silly mood. IP: Logged |

I can definitely see an Aquarius guy complaining that the next person doesn't talk enough. And yet you went back to a chattering Gemini. How is that going, btw? IP: Logged |

Oxychick, I like Mars in Air and Earth signs too, easier to read. Especially Libra or in the 7th house, but Mars in Aries is sexy too. You are lucky with Venus in Aries, that's very passionate. I knew a Pisces with that placement and I'll never forget.Oxychick what is it that turns Aquas on anyway? If there is no touching at first? Are there subtle touches, subtle clues?

Good morning Natasha,Wow, big question. I can probably only tell you about three Aquarian guys-I don;t know exact birth times for any of them One has his Moon in Aquarius, Venus in Aquarius/Mars in Taurus. I was with one for about a year (his moon is either Capricorn or Aquarius and Venus in Sag/Mars in Aquarius). Neither of these Aquarians were faithful guys. Then there was another with Moon in Leo like me, venus in Aquarius and Mars in Leo. I had very strong, instant connections with all of them. They seem to be attracted to anything different and interesting. The one I was with for a year was a huge flirt off the bat and came right out and pursued me. The other two were very quiet about it at first, but once we had some time alone, they were very affectionate. The one with the Aquarian Moon completely shocked me with his admition of attraction to me. I never thought it, and I have known him for a while now. Alone and behind closed doors, I think experiences with Aquarian guys can be very intense. Also, I have some Aquarian guy friends who I have never been physically intimate with, but with whom I share very close friendships. They are often (not always) great people to talk to. I guess it depends on the guy, but I've found that once they are sure the other person feels the same way, then green lights all around! That's just my experience though. My friend is a Taurus with Cancer moon (like you!) and she is dating an Aquarius guy right now. She was very into him at first, but seems to be losing interest quickly. Is there an Aquarian guy in your sights? I never thought of that way, but perhaps you're right-those signs are easier to read. (do you really think Mars in Aquarius is easy to read-I have that placement) IP: Logged | |
