How Compatible Is Your Relationship According To Your Zodiac Sign?

#1. Opposite Signs

Aries-Libra

Taurus-Scorpio

Gemini-Sagittarius

Cancer-Capricorn

Leo-Aquarius

Virgo-Pisces

Have you ever heard the term ‘opposites attract?' That's definitely the case when it comes to signs that reside across from one another on the zodiac wheel. Such partners often make a great team, perfectly contrasting one another.

Should you engage in such a relationship, expect to gain a new sense of perspective.

#2. Same Sign Relationships

Dating someone with the same zodiac sign as you can feel sort of like dating a mirror at times. The shared sign means you both possess many of the same values, quirks and insecurities. Should you engage in such a relationship, prepare to learn many lessons regarding the art of self-acceptance.

Also prepare for awkward sibling-esque moments. You can minimize these by maintaining your individuality in the relationship and putting effort into frequent romantic activities.

#3. One Sign Apart

Aries: Pisces, Taurus

Taurus: Aries, Gemini

Gemini: Taurus, Cancer

Cancer: Gemini, Leo

Leo: Cancer, Virgo

Libra: Virgo, Scorpio

Scorpio, Libra, Sagittarius

Sagittarius: Scorpio, Capricorn

Aquarius: Capricorn, Pisces

Capricorn: Sagittarius, Aquarius

Pisces: Aquarius, Aries

Major differences in romantic approach begin to appear when you date someone even just one sign away from you. To put it simply, if you want a dynamic relationship this is a good place to start looking.

Expect plenty of tension. This will not be an ‘easy' relationship. But, when maintained properly, it will be quite a rewarding one when that tension boils over into exciting and explosive passion.

Patient, well-thought-out communication is key to success in a relationship between individuals one sign apart. While partners will never totally understand each other, they can learn many things about human nature and romance by spending time together.

#4. Two Signs Apart

Aries: Sagittarius, Aquarius

Taurus: Pisces, Cancer

Gemini: Aries, Leo

Cancer: Taurus, Virgo

Leo: Gemini, Libra

Virgo: Cancer, Scorpio

Libra: Leo, Sagittarius

Scorpio: Virgo, Capricorn

Sagittarius: Libra, Aquarius

Capricorn: Scorpio, Pisces

Aquarius: Sagittarius, Aries

Pisces: Capricorn, Taurus

The most successful ‘friends with benefits' tend to reside in this category. Both signs will always be represented by compatible elements. For example, Libras are represented by air while Leos are characterized by fire. The former needs the latter to burn.

Make sure you find ways to keep the love spark going.

#5. Three Signs Apart

Aries: Cancer, Capricorn

Taurus: Aquarius, Leo

Gemini: Pisces, Virgo

Cancer: Aries, Libra

Leo: Taurus, Scorpio

Virgo: Gemini, Sagittarius

Libra: Cancer, Capricorn

Scorpio: Leo, Aquarius

Sagittarius: Virgo, Pisces

Capricorn: Aries, Libra

Aquarius: Scorpio, Taurus

Pisces: Gemini, Sagittarius

Relationships in this category often lead to issues resembling parental conflicts. (Mommy and Daddy issues.)

#6. Four Signs Apart

Aries-Leo-Sagittarius

Taurus-Virgo-Capricorn

Gemini-Libra-Aquarius

Cancer-Scorpio-Pisces

Mates in this category have signs of the same element. This leads to a relationship abundant in harmony. Partners feel no shame in exposing even the most embarrassing of personal details with one another.

It's in such a relationship that one learns how to be vulnerable. Should the relationship end, it will have provided each person with the confidence and willingness to go forward and open themselves up to future partners.

Care should be taken to maintain some mystery and not expose too much too soon.

#7. Five Signs Apart

Aries: Virgo, Scorpio

Taurus: Libra, Sagittarius

Gemini: Scorpio, Capricorn

Cancer: Sag, Aquarius

Leo: Capricorn, Pisces

Virgo: Aquarius, Aries

Libra: Pisces, Taurus

Scorpio: Aries, Gemini

Sagittarius: Taurus, Cancer

When individuals five signs apart come together, the result is a truly odd relationship. Observers will find themselves wondering how in the world such different people could ever come together so well.

And believe me, they are different; they've got nothing in common astrologically. They may even have opposing ideas as to what a relationship should be. But through work and dedication, each person can learn what service means in a relationship as they cater to one another's needs.
