Why are some zodiac signs more compatible..
Alright, I’m going to explain this as simply as possible.
Astrology’s zodiac signs are divided into several different categories which quite frankly I’m not going to dive in right now.
What you need to know is simple: Air, Earth, Water, Fire. When you interpret what these elements represent, then you can slowly start understanding what the 12 signs of the zodiac mean, and why they’re different.
If you’re not yet aware:
Air is associated with mental intelligence, social intelligence, ideas, breeziness, the mind. Smart, quick witted people who are extremely attentive to detail. Libra, Aquarius, Gemini.
Water is associated with sensitivity, intuition, feeling, sensing. These signs are quite interconnected with the Universe as they are all about the gut feeling and intuition. Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio.
Earth is associated with being grounded, the material world, work/goals, perfectionism as well as laziness, they are much more realistic and practical. Capricorn, Ta**us, Virgo.
Fire is associated with activity, energy, outspokenness, audacity, moving, the body. Big egos, big expectations, big adventures. Aries, Leo, Sagittarius.
As you might have already interpreted, signs from the same element are more compatible. A Water-dominated couple works well together because they are intuitive and sensitive, so they are aware and understand their partner’s needs as they tend to be the same or similar to their own. A Fire-dominated couple loves the competition and adventure, they are both fearless to speak their mind and give opinions. Both their energies are strong. An Air-dominated couple will be popular and liked, always discussing interesting topics, will love conversing with each other and friends, and so on. Opposites attract but in the real world, you’re most attracted to yourself and what you know. Same element = same way of thinking.
Of course this is only the Sun sign and we must take into account both people’s Moons, Rising signs, Venus placement, Mars placement… This may sound complicated, but a Libra Sun with a Pisces Moon could indeed work better with a Cancer than a Gemini (because the Moon sign rules emotions, whereas the Sun sign describes you in your most general/basic state).
Additionally, you may be compatible with your opposite sign. Every sign has its opposite, 6 months apart. Cap-Cancer, Aquarius-Leo, Pisces-Virgo, Aries-Libra, Ta**us-Scorpio, Gemini-Sag. As I previously mentioned, opposites do attract and these combinations may make for a very harmonic duo or a very troublesome one.
