The old pickup line, “what’s your sign, baby” makes us laugh. Nonetheless, there’s the question of whether our best matches are truly in the stars. How exactly does astrological compatibility work?
Astrology lists various common traits for the signs. By comparing and contrasting, generalized patterns emerge about which signs interact with each other the best. This provides a framework when you’re considering a potential partner.
Having said that, there are many factors in a person’s chart that can make them far from the zodiac norm for their sign. So when you read about love connections, keep in mind that everyone is unique. What’s provided here are basic concepts, and they are not carved in stone

An Aries-Leo match works well, too. In fact, it’s very organic in nature, filled with passion and adventure. When these two put their minds to something, get out of the way.

Libra
A Libra-Leo match has the potential for being a soulmate. Both signs avoid conflict unless necessary. Both enjoy a little glamor, with a style all their own. As for romance? You bet!
Geminis are great at communicating with Libra. Libras understand that Gemini wants to remain centered and engaged in various ways. There are some hearts and flowers in this connection, too.
The Libra-Aquarius connection is highly intellectual. These are “influencers.” Nonetheless, they enjoy some throw-back styles balanced by just enough rebel-with-a-cause passion to keep things interesting.
Scorpio
The link between Scorpio and Cancer is wholly pleasurable. This couple is psychic, sensitive, and in tune with their feelings. For Scorpio, an intuitive Cancer transforms lovemaking into a spiritual extravaganza.
A Scorpio-Virgo match is fantastic. It’s a calm relationship (and one both signs strive to keep that way). These two are somewhat reserved, but they’re very impressive in positions of power.
Pisces is also a possibility here because of the psychic connection these two signs share. There’s no need for hinting or nudging. Plus, Scorpio gives Pisces the energy to achieve greatness.
Sagittarius
By far, Leo wins this race. When you want happiness, light-hearted living, and a natural way of approaching life, this is the ideal couple. Both love adventures, and never want to stop learning. Sex is fierce and adventurous.
Aries has potential. There is a gentle sort of happiness here. Both people get excited about the other’s plans and support them wholeheartedly. The only caution is that Aries sometimes moves way too fast for the Archer.

An impressive match for the Water Bearer is a Gemini. Both signs work diligently for social causes. The only glitch is that Gemini is prone to changing plans on a whim.

Sagittarius is one of the best matches Aquarius will ever find. These two love working together. They’re honest, and always looking for unique ways of engaging lire.
Pisces
Cancer matches harmoniously with Pisces. The fish is emotional and dreamy, while Cancer gives form and movement to a Piscean’s concepts. The emotion here is great so long as Cancer doesn’t become too bossy.
Scorpio is perhaps the most compatible with Pisces. These two feel everything deeply. They’re both also psychic, so they can’t hide anything from each other. Overall this is a romantic connection.
Finally, Capricorn is in this picture too. Both signs have a foothold in tradition. This paring is educational for both parties.
