Opposite signs

Opposite signs

Opposite signs face each other across the wheel like two halves of a whole. The attraction is strong: each sees in the other what it lacks. The relationship swings between admiration and argument, and balance comes when the partners stop trying to change each other.

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

Both signs are cardinal - initiators used to starting things and leading. Together you launch shared projects easily, but you need to divide roles, or each of you will pull in a different direction.

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.

Libra in love

For Libra, relationships are one of the central parts of life. It is romantic, attentive to its partner and loves to be courted beautifully. Libra wants an equal partnership where both people invest. Rudeness and constant fighting drain it, and indecision can delay important steps.

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.
