Two scores from the signs
Temperament: 90 out of 100. You are both earth signs, and the rule scores a shared element highest: you tend to understand each other's temperament without much explaining.
Everyday pace: 60 out of 100. Your Sun signs are both cardinal, the signs that start things. Two starters tend to bring plenty of drive and both want to steer, so the rule scores it lower.
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
The same sign. Two people of the same sign share one element, one mode and one ruling planet. Tradition reads the pair as mirrors: easy to understand, and alike in what they overlook.
Talking and everyday life
Two earth signs tend to talk plainly and practically. You may say less about feelings than about plans, and still understand each other well.
Day to day you both tend to take the lead. Deciding who steers what (money, plans, weekends) tends to save a lot of friction.
Where it gets hard
Sharing an element also means sharing its blind spot: two earth signs tend to miss the same things.
Two starters can compete for the wheel: who plans the trip, who picks the place, who has the last word.
Questions to talk about together
- Which feeling have we been handling practically that we could simply say?
- Which decisions do we each want to lead, and which do we want to share?
These are tendencies to talk about, not a verdict on a relationship. Take what rings true and leave the rest.
