Sun Sign Astrological Love and Compatibility
Yep!
It appears like quite a few folks are (for some strange reason) definitely
interested in the subject of astrological love and compatibility... and chances
are that you clicked on a link expecting to find one of those typical lists
of "compatible Zodiac Sun Signs."
But, being a wee bit of a rascal, I just can't bring myself to let you off the hook that easily...
And surely you don't mind briefly putting on your "thinking cap" and doing a little work with that "gray matter" of yours?
Basic Rule of Thumb:
Look for someone with a Zodiac Sun Sign located in the same or a complementary "Element."
- Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) and Air Signs (Libra, Aquarius, Gemini) are complementary elements. So as the theory goes: the Zodiac signs Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Libra, Aquarius, and Gemini all tend to get along with each other.
- Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) and Earth Signs (Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo) are complementary elements. So as the theory goes: the Zodiac signs of Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces, Capricorn, Taurus, and Virgo all tend to get along with each other.
A Little
Controversial
Yep!
My view is a wee bit controversial, in that it includes some Sun Sign matches
that are "in opposition" to each other. But luckily, I enjoy being
controversial...
Here's
The Skinny: Paths of Least and Most Resistance
Traditional Sun Sign match ups are still primarily based on the simplistic
premise that everyone wants and prefers smooth and easy. Following this premise,
Sun Sign comparisons can assist in mapping out generalized "paths of
least resistance" and the "paths of most resistance" with other
people.
As such... Sun Sign match ups can often assist us in sorting out those people that we generally tend get along with the easiest in long term relationships… and, on the other hand, Sun Sign comparisons can assist in sorting out those people that (over the long haul) we will generally tend to experience the most "challenges" and/or "friction" with.
The
Fly in the Ointment
One (among many) major fly in the ointment is that practical experience, in
our modern times of the 21st century, demonstrates to us that this old premise
is no longer necessarily reliable. Some (perhaps many) people prefer, need,
and/or seek out more "friction" in their long term relationships.
It appears that some of us actually prefer, need, and/or look for and choose
those "paths of most resistance."
Disclaimer: Any two people who love each other and are willing to work a little (or sometimes a lot) can make a relationship work. Of course, ya didn't need an astrologer to tell you that...
Astrology can, however, help out by clarifying what some of the strengths and weaknesses of a relationship are.

Flies in the Sun Sign Ointment
However, you should know that a person's Ascendant sign and/or Moon sign placements
are as much or more important than the Sun's sign placement regarding romantic
attraction and compatibility. Yep! There are many, many, many other factors
involved in real bona fide astrological compatibility...
What About Real Bona Fide Astrological Compatibility?
The first thing to know about real Bona Fide astrological compatibility is that every astrologer on the planet has their own little "pet theories" in regard to the subject of astrological compatibility. And more often than not -- these little "pet theories" end up being in direct opposition with the "pet theories" of other astrologers. So, some of the thoughts you see on my site may be different than what you'll see on another site or at a visit to your local astrologer.
The art of astrological chart comparison is complex, fascinating and maddeningly elusive... this stuff is not an exact science! OOPS! (Just made some astrologers mad with that comment.) And even if it were a science, I learn a little more almost everyday regarding what really works and what doesn't.
How
Serious Are You?
How
serious are you about needing to know about real bona fide astrological compatibility?
If on a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being the highest) you're a 7 or higher; then I strongly suggest you put out some "bucks" and consult with a local astrologer in your hometown.
Luckily for consumers (you), virtually every astrologer has poured hours and hours into gaining an understanding into the subject of compatibility. Besides us astrologers having a.... er.... personal interest and investment in the subject -- we know that eleven times out of ten, our clients will have a question or two about compatibility.
Get Thee
To An Astrologer
Now,
if at all possible, the astrologer is going to need your
- Date of Birth
- Place of Birth
- Time of Birth - the time of birth determines the Ascendant (or Rising Sign) and the resuting House Placements. Depending on the astrologer -knowing the Time of Birth is CRITICAL for determining read bona fide astrological compatibility.
Not
All That Interested
Not all that interested? Then go buy the book that astrologer Linda
Goodman wrote many years ago on Sun Sign compatibillty. Hmmm... I can't remember
its name to save my life.... but it's big, thick and practically everybody's
already got a copy of it!
Granted... her book is basically just Sun Sign based compatibility - but it's a really nice place to start (please, don't tell any other astrologers that I suggested this, since I do have a reputation to uphold).
BTW - the name of that Linda Goodman book is Love Signs.
