Two scores from the signs
Temperament: 55 out of 100. Your Sun signs are fire and water, elements that traditionally sit less easily together, and the rule scores that lowest: what comes naturally to one of you may take effort for the other.
Everyday pace: 60 out of 100. Your Sun signs are both fixed, the signs that keep things going. Two keepers tend to be steady, loyal and slow to give ground, 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
Three signs apart, 90° (a square). Signs three apart share their mode but not their element. Tradition reads the square as friction that keeps both people moving.
Talking and everyday life
Fire tends to be direct and quick; water tends to notice how things are said. Warmth in the tone matters as much as the words.
Day to day you both tend to keep to your ways. Routines come easily; changing them is where you may dig in.
Where it gets hard
Your elements, fire and water, tend to want different things from the same evening: what restores one of you may tire the other.
Two keepers can hold their ground for a long time. The hard part is rarely the disagreement itself but who moves first.
Questions to talk about together
- What is one thing I say that lands harder than I mean it to?
- Which of our routines do we both love, and which one could we change?
These are tendencies to talk about, not a verdict on a relationship. Take what rings true and leave the rest.
