Compatibility throughout the Sun Signs

[Missa]

I have noticed a certain pattern in relationships. Here is the "theory" in a nutshell, from hardest relationship to the easiest:
- Signs that form square aspect
- Signs that are next to your opposition sign
- Signs that are next to your own sign
- Your own sign and your opposition sign
- Signs that form a trine or sextile

So, for example if you're a Libra, that would go as:
- Capricorn, Cancer
- Pisces, Taurus
- Scorpio, Virgo
- Aries, Libra
- Leo, Sagittarius, Gemini, Aquarius

Do you agree? Disagree? Let me know.

I agree with Aqua, i think the moon is far more important to how emotionally close we feel to someone and how comfortably we can live with them. I'm a taurus, my ex is an aries and we get on great esp as our venus' conjunct but our moons clash, me virgo him sag, so living together and finding a natural rhythm between us intimately just wasn't forthcoming so we called it a day. Others were shocked as we get on so well but to me a relationship without sex is a friendship. My sun is pretty much unaspected tho, while my moon is heavily so, so maybe i'm just more in tune with the lunar energy.

Over the years i've been most attracted to Sagittarians, Aquarians and Scorpios tho most have had a combo of all 3. I have venus & mars in aries/sag so maybe thats why. I have girlfirends that are Capricorns and i get on with them great but i've never met a male one that i've been attracted to. I get on well with pisces men as friends but have never met a faithful one, the dreamers. A guy i'm currently sharing a house with is a sag with cancer moon and i really respond to him on a domestic level. Both of us come from families with air/fire moons and it feels soothing having him around.

I read somewhere else that if anothers planets fall in your 8th house they affect you greatly for better or worse, sometimes both, and maybe thats why i'm attracted to sag/scorp energy as they challenge me.

Another couple have a good marriage on the surface, but the husband regulary cheats, because the wife is totally uninterested in sex - she has a Pisces Mars.

I disagree with the Aquarius being best matched relationship-wise with Libras and Geminis! I'm a triple Aqua and can't handle a Libras desperate need for partnership at any cost and the Geminis are far to slippery for me! Although, I am surrounded by them - Mum and Dad's Sun, Son's Asc, 3 of my closest friends Sun, and current partner's moon are in Gemini!

Personally, the only man that has truly understand my need for space has been my current Aquarius partner.

I actually think it's more important to look at the Moon sign to see whether a couple can actually live together.

Hello
I currently have guests with me at the moment who are approaching their 60th wedding anniversary. I don't know what their charts are like but she is a Sag and he is a Cap.

I also know another combo like this. The sag girl, who is known to be a bit loose (sorry I know this is not nice to say but true), has I think found her match in him and has last I heard, was still in a relationship with him (2 and bit years together).

I am an Aqu and my partner is Gem and I adore him. I love his slipperiness, he plays with me and teases me. I like to be kept on my toes. I know this sounds crazy but I love this aspect of Gem males, must be my gem mars and highly airy chart. As long as they don't stray then I don't care.

Otherwise, Leo is rightly too much trouble. I just get angry by the attention they constantly demand; even if they are dashing. I just find that they pounce on you and don't take things slowly.

Taureans do nothing for me and I had to share a room with a Tau who had a sun-sun square with me and we ended up in a punchup. I have a few Cap friends and seem to always attract Pisces friends. I have noticed that all the Pisces friends have something either Aqu or Gem in them and hence the attraction.

Ok i'm off nowww. Hugs, not drugsssss

No, I'm an Aqu and I have a very airy and a bit of a firey chart.

These are on aspects though. I have met some nice Virgoan (one being my best friend in school who unfortunately I have lost contact with), Gems (my partner) and Sags (a cherished relative) too.

I'm with the other libra that says virgos and libras dont work out. i frankly just don't understand them. I have come to the point where I'm not sure whether they are just being a nice person, or because they are actually interested in me to be in a relationship. Big problem with me because I do often find a deep connection to them that is hard to make go anywhere. For example there was a coworker I got to know fairly well and at the beginning of the friendship he would do things like sit by me at break and wouldnt say much and i would have to be like is there something you want or need? Typically, I feel like if you have the balls to begin an interaction with me shouldn't the person begin the interaction be the most vocal. Virgos remind me of someone that is an unintentional tease. Well I ended up getting his numbr he quit a few weeks later I called him up out of curosity cus I hadn't seen him at work for awhile. I left messages for about 2 weeks later after I had spoken with him and no return message. I did eventually get ahold of him and he made the comment to me that we should hang out and at that point I didn't feel he was sincere because it takes less time to leave a message than hang out so I tossed his number. I doubt I will ever understand how virgos can be in any type of relatonship when they draw someone into them and then leave them hanging.


Another example is I'm bi and I attend a club and this bartender there has been charging less for some drinks and gave me a vip card with his name and number on it to get in free. About 2 weeks ago went to the same place, but at another bar and he walked by me and flashed me a smile and said hi. Later, that evening im in the middle of the dance floor i feel 2 hands around my side for about 5 seconds and turned my head and i saw him walking by. I decided to go to his bar and see if he wants to talk or whatever and he completely clams up. So I go ahead an introduce myself.

I think that guy is shy - he admires you but probably feels apprehensive to take it to the next level. Drawing someone in and leaving them hanging is more like what I experience with a Libran guy (I'm Libran as well). At least there is stability once you've got something meaningful going on with a virgo and they genuinely like you. But with a Libran guy, you never really know where you stand. He is evasive and fickle, although charming, gentle, lovable etc etc. And he leaves me hanging alot of the time - to figure out things for myself, when I need and want his support. I find virgos to be there more of the time than a Libra guy would. Or maybe it's just his chart.

It was also mentioned that Librans are desperate for a relationship, but i want and need my space. Probably for Saturn in Libra (I'm part of the generation and it conjuncts my sun) we are more afraid and apprhensive of giving our all in relationships and tend to hold back, even though we really want to do so.

If you figured that out all by yourself, I commend you!! but really, i think we can pretty much say it`s the traditional concept.

Of course we all learn the basic sign compatibility from astrology books and websites, but I've noticed that there is lots of variation. Some sources say, that for example a Libra is compatible with Taurus because they're both ruled by Venus, some say that same sign relationships are the perfect match - some others that they're not the best one and full of fighting, some say that you're usually attracted to your opposing sign - some others that opposing signs are usually too different, etc. The only basic thing that every source I've seen so far seems to agree on is that signs that form trine or sextile get along nicely, and signs that form square are not the "perfect match", but what comes to the rest it seems to vary depending on the source. That list is based on my own experience, and what I've read from books and on the internet.

A thought I had some time ago:

Aries attracts Libra, Scorpio attracts Taurus.

Which means Mars attracts Venus twice.

[Kristine]

I'm a Virgo--seven times over (sun, mercury, venus, mars all in virgo. Moon, Saturn, Uranus in sixth house, but all in Sagittarius). My sun, mercury, venus, and mars all fall in the fourth house...giving me somewhat Cancerian traits and values.

When I was younger, I was unbelievably attracted to Scorpios. I think this attraction was due in part to having a Scorpio mother (so I'm thinking it was almost a subconcious comfort being around them). In middle school, my closest friend was a Scorpio. In high school, my closest friend was another Scorpio. One of the more serious crushes I had in high school was on a Scorpio. I simply clicked with them and there was always mutual respect between us. Of all the Scorpios I've met (and there are A LOT), I think there's only one I simply could not come to like. I found that, lately however, I've been breaking away from my Scorpio fixation. Don't know why.

Nowadays, I'm more attracted to the other water signs: Cancer and Pisces, particularly Cancer. Simply put, I can really connect with and understand Cancers. We're both lovers of the past, nostalgia, quiet, sensitive. And they're incredibly emotionally supportive--a trait I admire a lot, as I've always been taxed when it comes to expressing emotions and feelings. I really value and appreciate all the Cancers in my life (there weren't a lot when I was young, but I find that as I grow older...I tend to flock to Cancers or they flock to me). I love them so much.

Pisces! Of all the signs in the zodiac, it is Pisces I most admire. The traits they possess are the very traits I'm looking to really develop in myself: particularly artistry and compassion. Honestly, I really don't know what to say of my connection to this sign. I simply find them to be beautiful souls.

Romantic relationships-wise, I noticed I attract Aquarius and Leos. Admittedly, I'm attracted to them. I don't know what it is about these signs. I'm guessing it's their freedom streak (well Aquarius is more freedom-oriented. With Leos, it's more or less simple extroversion and a desire to "roam" the earth). I myself need plenty of freedom and space in an intimate relationship.

Geminis are my best friends! No sign can compare with the humor and laughter a Gemini brings into my life. My best, best friend ever is a Gemini. She's a natural comedian, sending her "audience" into a fit of painful laughter. She brings me up when I'm down and literally lights up my life. Love her to bits. When I look for an instant bond, I always look to a Gemini. It almost never fails.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Like DainBramaged, I tend to observe sun sign relationships.

Ones I've noticed quite a bit are:

Scorpio and Gemini (Yes, Gemini! Mostly as friends though)
Scorpio and Capricorn (Friends and lovers)
Scorpio and Cancer (A tender bond)
Scorpio and Virgo (Friends and lovers)
Pisces and Sagittarius (These two are inseperable!)
Gemini and Virgo (Partners in crime)
Taurus and Capricorn (Like Pis/Sag, inseperable!)
Leo and Aquarius (The best of friends)
Cancer and Virgo (Go together real well)

Obiously, my observations seem highly subjective and personal (I mean look at all the Scorpio combos...and Virgo combos. I know too many Scorpios. And well I'M a Virgo). But I've definitely noticed these partnerships to be frequent.

[*squibble*]

Has anyone noticed how the adjacent signs seem to relate to each other? Some of my most disapointing relationships have been Virgo (if I fall for them, it's hard). I am Leo, Virgo rising, and it's like I want to be more like them... Even if there isn't much to respect about them, I'll find something.
And Cancer, this man who sent me gifts despite the clearly unrequited emotions for years was Cancer. I found it hard to even be around him, it definitely did not bring out my best.

The sign that follows seems to be the sign we more often chase after, if we are attracted to an adjacent sign.
The sign that comes first seems to be pursuing the later sign.

This seems even true within signs. My best friend is Sag at 29+ degrees and her boyfriend is early Sag. He wants to get married and she is breaking up even though she's madly in love- she wants to travel the world and date around.
I've been dating other Leos lately. When they are early in their birthdays, it seems to work well.
I'm kind of surprised I've never noticed this relationship between adjacent signs mentioned. So far, it seems pretty accurate for describing the dynamics within those relationships.

Sun Sign only doesn't do it
Yeah my only love was a Pisces... So that works
But water signs are to emotional for me... i don't like drowning, i'm drowning allready in my own world
Passionate short lived relations with Aqua's Gem and Aries... the aqua's are still in my life...
Never had something with an Earth Sun Sign, although i have Moon at the end of Virgo and Venus in the middle of Taurus...

Chasing after a Leo... happened (sign after Cancer)... Worked for a while
Gemini's chasing after me... well the chasing was mutual and fun (have Eros in Gem... an asteroid of love and sex)

I tend to befriend and love with not compatible signs... I need Air/ Fire ppl in my life, cause i'm so Water/ Earth...

With love it's: Pisces, Aqua, Gem, Aries
friendship: Sag/ Gem/ Aqua/ Aries/ Pisces/ Leo/ Cancer/ Virgo
erotic: the ones mentioned with love and Sag...

And please, no Scorpio Moons anymore (oh this is Sun Sign, sry folks)

pixiequix -
I would have to disagree about chasing the sign that comes after yours -
I am a leo and have never been attracted to a virgo, or even had any close virgo friends. Strangely I get a lot of Virgo's chasing me, and am not attracted to them - ever, I have no idea why.

I think that you need to look at the whole chart. For example I have no Capricorn or Aquarian friends or lovers - and I think perhaps because I have any planets in those signs?

My opinion on this:

Sagitarius-Aquarius: The atraction is very powerful between these two.Altough they usually have different tastes/opinions,they enjoy each other's company and have lots of fun together.Their enthusiasm is somewhat contagious.Their relationship has lots of ups and downs but they can stay together for a long while(know two couples who have been together for more than3years now).

Cancer-Cancer: A very discrete couple.They're very sensitive and in tune with each others moods.The people around usually think they're boring and lack a certain passion,but they really enjoy each others company and support each other through hard times.

Cancer-Pisces: Both are very sensitive and caring,always trying to meet each others needs.Cancer helps the lunatic Piscean stabilyzing his/hers emotions.While Pisces apreciates the support,Cancer admires Pisces imagination.

Cancer-Taurus: Another quiet couple.No one knows they're together until they mention it.Both are very stuborn,but also sensitive.They're very committed to one another and give each other lots of security.

Aries-Sagitarius: They share enthusiasm for life and a need for independence.Aries is usually a little bit more possessive.They give each other lots of room,which keeps their relationship fresh and interesting.

Sagitarius-Pisces: They atract each other like magnets.Sagitarius apreciates Pisces imagination and idealism,while Pisces admires Sagitarius enthusiasm for life.Once they get together,is clear for everyone that they don't really understand each other.Sagitarius is the first one to give up.

[Belgianmoonguy]

Cancer - Libra
In spite of willing to keep things harmonious, Cancer will never have Libra for his/ her own... Cancer will grow colder as they learn that Libra have an cool, rational attitude towards romance and love...

Cancer - Sagittarius
This can work, as Cancer has also a lust for travelling, wondering around... If Cancer could calm down his need for being clingy, and Sag could take some pills from brand 'sensitivity' they could be interested in each other for a long time

Aries - Aquarius
Weird couple. Can't be ignored or missed... Endless monologues... Aries could benefit from the objective attitude Aqua adopts towards all kinds of things. Most of the time Aries is more interested in Aqua then the other way around.
