Taurus + Virgo Compatibility
Bedrock, slow to build, near impossible to shake: 86% overall match (love 86%, friendship 88%, communication 80%, long-term 87%).
Two earth signs build a relationship the way they build everything: deliberately. Trust is earned in small, kept promises. Home matters, money is handled like adults, and loyalty is total once given. The shadow side is inertia, comfort can quietly replace intimacy, and neither of you will be the one to say the routine has gone stale.
For a woman and a man
Taurus and Virgo is Venus with Mercury, earth with earth. The Taurus is fixed and the Virgo is mutable. It is a practical, steady match. You both like things done properly, and that care runs both ways, whichever of you is the woman and whichever is the man.
The friction is small. The Virgo notices what could be better and says so. The Taurus hears every suggestion as a judgment on how things are already done. A tidy kitchen becomes a quiet debate about the right place for the knives. Neither of you shouts, but the tension sits in the routine.
Agree on areas of ownership. The Taurus owns some parts of the house and the week, the Virgo owns others, and each of you gives advice only when asked. Mercury's improvements land better as an offer than as a correction. In return, the Taurus can say thank you for the help, because Virgo shows love by fixing things. Two earth signs make a calm home and a reliable partnership when the care is said out loud.

For two women
Taurus and Virgo are both earth, so two women in this pairing tend to build slowly and carefully, and nothing is rushed. Taurus is fixed and ruled by Venus, so she keeps what she values. Virgo is mutable and ruled by Mercury, so she adjusts and improves. Because no one has handed you a role, you could easily both default to being the sensible one.
The trouble is a money disagreement about something small. Say you are choosing a new washing machine. The Taurus has decided on the brand she trusts and sees no reason to look further. The Virgo has read forty reviews and found a model with a better rating. Each is sure the other is being unreasonable, and each is able to dig in for a week.
The quiet danger here is not a fight, it is routine. Dinners repeat, weekends repeat and nobody mentions it. Put one new thing in the diary every month, and make it a shared job: one of you chooses it, the other books it. Planning a surprise is a good use of Virgo's attention and Taurus's love of pleasure.

For two men
Two men with Taurus and Virgo are likely to be steady, dependable and slightly hard to move. Both are earth. Taurus is fixed, ruled by Venus, and holds to what feels right. Virgo is mutable, ruled by Mercury, and keeps refining the way things are done. There is no inherited picture of which man should take charge of the practical side, so the two of you may both quietly take charge of everything.
An ordinary example is the household budget. The Taurus likes a set amount for groceries and dislikes being told it should change. The Virgo tracks every item and sees where savings could be made. A suggestion from the Virgo can sound like a criticism of the Taurus, and the Taurus saying the system is fine can sound like a refusal to listen.
Try an agreement about timing. Once a month, the Virgo shares what he has noticed, and the Taurus listens without answering until the end. After that the Taurus decides what to keep. The Virgo gets heard, the Taurus keeps his say. Then spend a little of what you save on something that is purely for pleasure, because a pair like this forgets to.
With a non-binary partner
For a Taurus and Virgo pair with a non-binary partner, being seen accurately is the base everything else sits on. Both signs value reliability, so the best gift either can give is getting the name and pronouns right every time, without a fuss, and quietly correcting others when they slip. Neither sign is likely to treat it as optional.
The chart itself is not about gender. Taurus is earth, fixed and ruled by Venus. Virgo is earth, mutable and ruled by Mercury. They tend to dig in on positions that they both call sensible, and novelty can die quietly. Take a plan to redecorate. The Taurus wants the colours that feel good and will last. The Virgo wants the layout that works best. Each calls their own view the practical one.
Rather than argue which of you is more sensible, split the decision by category. Taurus chooses what the eye and hand will meet, such as fabric, colour and furniture. Virgo chooses what makes the room work, such as storage, lighting and layout. No one has to be the lead or the helper, and the finished room shows both of you.

Decision style: fixed meets mutable, one anchors, one adapts; it works while the anchor doesn't become an anvil.
