In astrology tradition, compatibility is read by comparing the elements of two signs: fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius), and water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces). Signs of the same element, or complementary elements, are said to harmonize.
Which zodiac signs go well together?
Same-element pairs are usually considered the most compatible: Aries-Leo, Taurus-Virgo, Gemini-Aquarius, Cancer-Scorpio. Complementary element pairings also score well in this tradition: fire with air (Leo with Libra, say) and earth with water (Capricorn with Scorpio).
Which two zodiacs are considered soulmates?
No astrology system can predict soulmates. Certain pairings do show up repeatedly in popular astrology, though: Scorpio and Pisces (both water, described as deeply intuitive), Leo and Sagittarius (both fire, adventurous). Taurus and Cancer are commonly listed as a stable, nurturing pair.
Which two zodiac signs are not good together?
Traditionally challenging pairings include Aries and Cancer (fire versus water, different speeds), Gemini and Virgo (both mutable, different elements), and Sagittarius and Pisces (described as a freedom-versus-depth tension). These are generalizations for entertainment only.
