Top 10 Most Compatible Zodiac Signs

The signs of Aries and Sagittarius both feature fire as their zodiac element, which could normally signify the clashing of two intense personalities. This pair could feasibly work pretty well together, however, especially if there's a mutual respect between the fast-acting Aries and the quick-thinking Sagittarius. Here, a romantic coupling could be free, loose and fun, involving tons of spur-of-the-moment outings and adventures. So long as the vibes remain good, and the pair honest, an Aries and Sagittarius could be good together.

This pair also shares an element, only this time it's Earth. Here, however, we are given two strong-willed and dynamic Type A personalities. Dating a control freak isn't the easiest thing in the world, but Capricorns and Virgos are similar to Aries' and Sagittarius', in that there's a certain amount of admiration for that die hard work ethic. Whereas the more emotional or thoughtful zodiac signs may be intimidated or annoyed with a partner with such a need to dominate, the melding of Virgos and Capricorns could mean the ultimate power couple... so long as there isn't any unhealthy competition in the relationship.

The best sorts of flames burn brightest when they're fanned with a burst of powerful wind. Such is the romantic potential behind a zodiac pairing of Libra, the balancing scales and Leo, the lion. Couples featuring these fire and air signs are usually up for anything, and love going on adventures. This spontaneity could mean wonders for the relationship, particularly if the fiery passion of a Leo is reciprocated by the more thoughtful and measured Libra. As a result, two people with these signs could end up bringing out the best qualities in each other, and have a wonderful relationship that could last months, years or more.

The water signs of the zodiac are known for being an emotional bunch, for better or worse, and as a result can be a pretty good coupling together. Case in point? Pisces and Scorpio, which offer proof that fish and scorpions can get along, given a chance. Both of these signs aren't the most immediately trusting, but are also willing to potentially offer a deeper look inside their true selves than other members of the astrological family. Long, meaningful conversations and intense romantic bonds could be in store for Scorpios and Pisces who open to each other with honesty and trust, making this pairing one that could be for keeps, or at the very least, quite emotionally satisfying.

The next entry marks the first appearance of Taurus the Bull on our list, but it won't be the last, as this Earth sign can prove compatible with multiple members of the zodiac. For this example, we're pairing Taurus with another Earth sign, Capricorn, for a match made in heaven. A combination of these signs could result in a fruitful, family-focused relationship, with a grounded and satisfying romance that just feels sort of... effortless. A Taurus and a Capricorn could feel as if they've known each other all of their lives, and focus on each others' well being for the long haul.

We're going to continue talking Capricorns for a second with the next entry on our list, this time playing match maker with Aquarius, the Water-Bearer. A couple featuring these signs could prove to be a good pair, as they value different things, but come together where it counts. A Capricorn/Aquarius couple aren't so much co-dependent as they are a co-operation, with the former serving as a more grounded, leveling force for the high-minded and dreamy Aquarians. That said, those big plans of the water-bearers need the smart and practical muscle of someone like a Capricorn to see them through, making this match one that could achieve some great things together.

The twins make their first appearance on our list, finally, with Gemini hooking its dual-personalities up with Libra, the scales. Gemini may feel like they simply can't contain all of their electricity and energy, but that's where Libra comes in. The calming influence of the scales could keep Gemini with their eyes on the prize, while the intensity and purpose of the twins could inspire Libras to focus on their goals and not be so lackadaisical. Romantically speaking, perhaps Libras have been dating around for a while, and haven't yet met the right person. Meeting a Gemini could be lightning in a bottle; an exciting element that had previously been missing from a Libra's life.

It may take a while for the occasionally shy Virgo to open up to our old friend the Taurus, but if there's any astrological sign that could break through to their fellow Earth sign, it's the Bull. Sometimes, it doesn't work out when two members of the same elemental signs of the zodiac hook up, but the Virgo and Taurus could find common ground in their determination to make their relationship work. Honest conversations about their limitations and foibles could replace dishonesty and deception, making the bull and the virgin a romantic combo that may seem like a bad idea on paper, but in practice? Well, it could be true love.

Okay, let's be honest: we all want great sex in a relationship. At least once... It's just a natural part of the human mating ritual, and something some of us pay credence to than others. These two signs definitely appreciate the red-hot passion of their elemental fire sign, making a combo between a Leo and Sagittarius a match made in lust. Of course, this doesn't mean that there also can't be some legitimately soulful feelings between a lion and a centaur archer, right? Of course not! Leos and Sagittarius could be made for the long haul, or they could just enjoy an brief-but-intense affair whose memories last a lifetime. It all depends on the roll of destiny's dice.

Thus far, we haven't yet met Cancer, the crab sign, but we've saved the best for last. Scorpios and Cancers are both water signs, and super in touch with their emotions. A relationship between the two could be compared to one with the third water sign, Pisces, in that there's usually a wide open line of communication between both people involved. Scorpios and Cancers don't hold the same things back from their partners that they may from those on the outside, and as a result can enjoy a loving, romantic and mutually fulfilling relationship that gives the pair everything they need. Love, sex, conversation and trust: this astrological pair is a one romantic match that could be a sure bet.
