What’s a Cusp?
If you are born during a cusp, it means that you're born during days that fall at the end or beginning of one of two Zodiac Signs and you are influenced by both of them. Some Astrologers don't believe in cusps at all. Others believe that a cusp is only the last day of a Zodiac Sign or the first day of one. Some Astrologers, though, believe there is a period of about a week when you can be a Zodiac cusp. There are a total of 12 cusps and the second is the Taurus Gemini cusp. Each cusp is named after the distinctive energy that it embodies and the Taurus Gemini Cusp is called The Cusp of Energy.
Your Sun Sign represents the core of your birth chart. If you are on a cusp, you will feel the influence of both Signs. It doesn't dilute your Zodiac sign, but it really enhances it, complicates it, and deepens it. One thing to know about your best and worst traits, they're pretty much the same thing. You will get good and bad traits from both sides if you're on a cusp. You have the ability to turn the negative side of your traits into something positive and make your worst weaknesses your greatest strengths. Being on a cusp helps give you infinite opportunities to do that. Read more about Zodiac Cusps here: The Sun Signs Cusps and Their Meanings
Taurus Traits
Born between April 20th and May 20th, Taurus is the second Sign of the Zodiac. They have their best traits of things like loyalty and being nurturing, and their worst traits of things like being stubborn.
Loyal
A Taurus will love you for life. They are dedicated lovers, unshakable friends, and go-to family members. They do everything in their power to make sure that the people that they want to have in their lives know that they are with them for good. They're not an untrue friend who will ditch you when they find something that they would rather do. They really don't care what they're doing as long as they do it together with you. They will have your back when other people betray you, take care of you when you need them, and make sure that you never go without anything.
Nurturing
If you need nurturing, call a Taurus, because they've got you covered. They will feed you, drive you to any place on Earth you need to go, pay your bills when necessary, and try their best to anticipate your every need and desire. They live to take care of people, and if they love you, then you will always always always be taken care of. They will go out of their way to take care of you even if you tell them not to. You might say they are butting in, being suffocating, or imposing their way on you when you're just trying to live your own life. It's a bad idea to be terribly resistant when your Taurus is trying to take care of you, because everybody wants your Taurus to take care of them.

Stubborn
When a Taurus makes up their mind about something, good luck changing it. They are creatures of habit, and as stubborn as brick walls. Trying too hard to change their mind is like banging your head on the brick wall they become. They build their lives around what they feel is comfortable and their habits that work for them comfort them greatly. Never mind the fact that what they think is best isn't best for you. They think they know best. Express appreciation for them trying to help, and do things your own way anyhow.
Bossy
Taurases don't try to push people around, but they are very good at doing it anyhow. It's not that they think they are superior people, they just always think they know best. They have worked very hard to try and figure out the best way of doing things. Once they think they have the best way, they stick with it. They care so much that you have the best of everything, so they can be a little pushy about informing you how they think you ought to do everything. Ok they can be more than a LITTLE pushy. Their heart is in the right place, even if it's annoying. Another Sign that can be bossy is Leo and you can read more about them here: Leo Traits and Love Compatibility
Gemini Traits
Between May 21st and June 20th, every year some wonderful people are born. They are called Geminis. They have positive traits and some darker traits. They are highly flexible individuals and their curiosity causes them to adapt. They are social butterflies who can be the life of any party, but they can have a really biting sense of humor.
Flexible
Gemini is one of the Mutable Zodiac Signs, which means that they are adaptable, and highly versatile individuals. They are not afraid of change, and if things stay the same for too long, they will get really bored. They love variety, new adventures, and love to meet new people. Their symbol is the twins, and they seem like a new person some days. They are multifaceted individuals and they believe that life is for living, not conforming to. Not only will they adapt, but they're good at talking other people into adapting also.
Curious
Geminis have thirsty minds. They love to learn, expand their understanding and awareness, and absorb things. They are fascinated with different parts of themselves, learning about different people, and having all kinds of different experiences. In some ways they are Renaissance men and women, living many different lives, all in one incarnation. This helps them to have a lot of different skills, have a brain that is always working, and be unafraid to go new places and have new experiences.

Social Butterflies
Geminis love to surround themselves with people. They are charming, good at talking to pretty much anyone, and a lot of them seem like they never meet a stranger. They need a lot of social stimulation, and if they don't get it, they wither because they feel isolated. On the positive side, this helps them to do jobs and complete tasks that entail including people. On the negative side, it makes them nearly bore themselves to death when they're alone, and they can become codependent very easily. They have to learn to balance their desire to be around people, and manage to do things on their own.
Sharp Sense of Humor
Leos and Sagittarians get a lot of credit for being the class clowns, but the biggest clown in the Zodiac is probably Gemini. They can make you laugh, and laugh with you, but they also laugh at you at your expense. They can be downright mean and morbid with their sense of humor. The mean guy who shows up and cracks jokes about death at the funeral is probably a Gemini. The positive side of this though is Geminis can take it when they are the joke. They are equal opportunity jokesters, but just now if you play a joke on them, they're going to get you back twice as bad.

Taurus Gemini Cusp Traits
Between May 17th and May 23rd, the Taurus Gemini cusp, called the Cusp of Energy, is where people are born. Each person on a cusp is different and they all embody an interesting mix of both sides. There are a few traits that most Taurus Gemini cusp people embody, though. They are highly energetic, fun people. They are also expert communicators, and they have a carefree attitude that can work for or against them.
Energetic
Gemini's high energy charges this cusp. With that energy comes high enthusiasm, a positive attitude, and a get up and go personality. They start things, finish them, and make you so enthusiastic about it you want to join in too. They understand that even though the Taurus side of them craves the comforts of home, they can return home after their exciting adventures because there are amazing experiences waiting for them. They also apply this high level of energy to whatever it is they are working on, whether it is relationships, hobbies, or their career. Some people get tired just watching them, but that's OK. They have enough energy for both of you.
Fun
They're interested in everything, everybody, and they want to do most things at least once. Life is for living as far as they're concerned. They can't do that, repeating the same things over and over again. Although Taurases can be very cautious, Geminis are risk takers. They don't mind an adrenaline rush on the edge of danger and they do it with a smile on their face. Nobody seems to laugh more than them, make you laugh more, or look on the bright side of everything. They also have an uncanny knack of making the most boring things fun for everyone. They understand that fun and laughter heals. Find out how here: Why the Best Medicine is Laughter- How Laughter Heals
Deep Communicators
Taurases are master listeners and Geminis are master mediators. Both signs are excellent for confiding in, getting solutions from, and getting perhaps the best advice in the Zodiac from. Even though the Gemini side of this cusp is all about having fun, they are deeply emotional people who care even more than they are fun. They know exactly how to express what they need to, and they seem to know exactly how you're feeling before you even say it. They know how to make you feel comfortable so that you will confide in them, and they know exactly how to present solutions to you. All you have to do is listen.
Carefree
This fun loving cusp can take too many chances sometimes with no regards for the consequences. They seem to have 9,000 lives and land on their feet no matter what happens. Perhaps they are the luckiest cusp in the Zodiac. Or perhaps they have calculated their risks better than people think they have. One thing is for certain, when they are having fun, so are you. One way to be truly carefree is to break free from bad things. Find out how to use magic to do that here: Breaking Free - Magic for Bond Breaking
Taurus Gemini Cusp Compatibility
One of the best love combinations with this cusp is Libra. Libras are notorious for having lots of options for friends and lovers. The loyalty of Taurus combined with the fun adaptability of Gemini in this cusp is what makes Libra want to settle down forever. Other Air Signs, Aquarius and Gemini, get along really well with this cusp because they understand each other's need for freedom. This makes a Taurus Gemini cusp worth coming home to after one of their big adventures.
Fire Signs are a toss up with this cusp. Leos enjoy the sense of humor that the Gemini side of this cusp brings as well as the nurturing side of Taurus. Sagittarians love the fun side, but will find the stubbornness that Taurus brings a bit much for them. Nobody needs their freedom like a Sagittarius. It really depends on the Aries as to how this pairing go. Taurus brings some practicality to the table and Aries tend to like to leap before they look, which can bring problems to the relationship.

Water Signs Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces find this cusp quite refreshing as long as the Gemini side can keep mean comments under wraps. Then again, Scorpios can have a morbid sense of humor and will love the sharper side of the Gemini comedy. Earth Signs Virgo and Capricorn can have some difficulties with this cusp. The Taurus side of this cusp is down to earth and practical, but when you throw in Gemini you never know how spontaneous this cusp is going to be. This can make Virgos feel unsettled. As long as things are going well, Capricorn will admire the gutsiness of this cusp.
People on the Taurus Gemini cusp have a carefree attitude, are deep communicators, and are highly energetic, fun people. They share traits from both Taurus and Gemini, and each individual who is on a cusp shares a different level of those traits. A lot of them tend to have a biting sense of humor, but they don't mind being the subject of a joke as well as joking about you.
