Two scores from the signs
Temperament: 80 out of 100. Your Sun signs are fire and air, elements that traditionally support each other (fire with air, earth with water), and the rule scores that high: one tends to feed the other.
Everyday pace: 70 out of 100. One of your Sun signs is cardinal (it starts things) and one is fixed (it keeps them going). The rule scores that in the middle: a strong pair once you agree where to go, a stubborn one before that.
Each score is one fixed rule about the two signs, given with it, so the same pair always gets the same score whichever sign comes first. It describes how easily the signs' tendencies fit together, not how a relationship goes.
On the zodiac wheel
Two signs apart, 60° (a sextile). Signs two apart have elements that traditionally support each other. Tradition reads the pair as easy company that grows with a little effort.
Talking and everyday life
Fire and air tend to talk easily: air brings the ideas, fire brings the enthusiasm, and each keeps the other going.
Day to day one of you tends to start things and the other to see them through. It works best when the starter asks before changing course.
Where it gets hard
Even fire and air can pull different ways when you are both tired: one wants to talk it out, the other wants a break.
Whoever starts things may want to change course sooner than whoever keeps them going is ready for.
Questions to talk about together
- Which of our ideas do we want to turn into a plan together?
- How do we want to handle a change of plan: ask first, or just go?
These are tendencies to talk about, not a verdict on a relationship. Take what rings true and leave the rest.
