Taurus (20 April – 20 May)

You’re known for being grounded, serene… and stubborn. “You move at your own pace,” says Bell. “You like to spend time getting to know someone before committing to a relationship and find it challenging to be open to someone else’s plans – which can be frustrating for people you’re dating.” When in a relationship, however, you’re one of the sturdiest and most supportive partners. “You’re very loyal and patient once you’re ‘all in’,” says Bell. “You’re also sensual, big on cuddling and being treated to nice things like dinners out or thoughtful jewellery.”

Seek out connections with fellow earth signs Virgos and Capricorns: they share your down-to-earth nature and love of the finer things in life. The more idealistic water signs, Pisces and Cancer, appreciate your level head and steady support, while you’re charmed by their sensitivity and creativity. But you tend to find air signs irritatingly flighty, so best to avoid Aries, Geminis and Libras.

Kiss: Capricorn. Your shared pragmatism means you’ll both understand if it can’t go any further

Marry: Virgo. It’ll be a slow burn, but once you both commit, you’re in it for the long haul

Ghost: Gemini. Their fickleness doesn’t gel with your steady vibe

No Leos, please; I’m a Capricorn: can you really use astrology to hack your love life?
