Two scores from the signs
Temperament: 55 out of 100. Your Sun signs are fire and earth, 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: 85 out of 100. One of your Sun signs is cardinal (it starts things) and one is mutable (it adapts). One tends to set the course and the other to adjust it, which the rule scores highest.
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
Neighbouring signs, 30° apart. Neighbouring signs differ in element and in mode. Tradition reads them as quite unalike, each tending to have what the other lacks.
Talking and everyday life
Fire tends to say it now; earth tends to think it over first. Neither is wrong: agreeing on when to talk helps more than agreeing on how.
Day to day one of you tends to set the direction and the other to adjust as you go, so decisions tend to come easily.
Where it gets hard
Your elements, fire and earth, tend to want different things from the same evening: what restores one of you may tire the other.
Whoever sets the course may take the other's flexibility for agreement, when it was only patience.
Questions to talk about together
- When something comes up, do we want to talk about it straight away or later?
- When one of us sets the course, how does the other say wait?
These are tendencies to talk about, not a verdict on a relationship. Take what rings true and leave the rest.
