Sextile

Sextile

Signs in sextile are two signs apart, and their elements are friendly. It is an easy, companionable match: you support each other's interests and easily find things to do together. The relationship grows through shared plans.

Elements

Air fans the flame: this is one of the liveliest element combinations. The air partner brings ideas, the fire partner turns them into action. Together you have fun and never get bored. The risk is a lack of stability: two freedom-loving people should agree on everyday life and commitments.

Pace and temperament

The cardinal sign starts, the fixed sign sustains. One sets the direction, the other provides stability. Friction appears when the first wants change and the second wants to keep things as they are.

Aries in love

In love, Aries is the pursuer. It enjoys the chase, shows feelings openly and wants an equally honest response. Boredom and coldness put out its fire faster than arguments do. Aries needs a partner who is not afraid of its energy and leaves room for excitement.

Aquarius in love

Aquarius needs its partner to be a friend first. It values intellectual closeness, respect for personal space and shared ideas. Aquarius can seem detached, but it gets deeply attached. Possessiveness and pressure push it away.

Why one sign isn't enough

Sign compatibility compares only the position of the Sun. Even two couples with the same signs have their Moon, Venus and Mars in different places - which is why it comes easily to some and takes work for others. Exact compatibility is calculated from both partners' birth charts.
