What decides how two signs fit
Element comes first. Of the twelve pairs of different signs that share an element, eleven earn five stars and the twelfth, Taurus and Capricorn, four. Earth and water get on too: Taurus is a five-star partner for both Cancer and Pisces. Fire and water tend to put each other out, and the hardest pairings of all are two signs of the same quality in elements that do not mix.
All three pairs rated one star are of that kind: Gemini and Pisces, Leo and Scorpio, Libra and Capricorn. Each wants the same role in a different way: both fixed, both mutable or both leading signs, each in another element.
The thirteen best pairs
Thirteen pairs get five stars: Aries and Leo, Aries and Sagittarius, Taurus and Cancer, Taurus and Virgo, Taurus and Pisces, Gemini and Libra, Gemini and Aquarius, Cancer and Scorpio, Cancer and Pisces, Leo and Sagittarius, Virgo and Capricorn, Libra and Aquarius, Scorpio and Pisces. Even for these it is worth reading "Where it rubs and how to ease it": each has one thing to watch.
The Sun sign is not the whole story
Every rating here comes from the sign the Sun was in on your birth date. How two people really get on also depends on the Moon, Venus and the ascendant. A five-star pair can miss each other, and a one-star pair can work if the rest of the charts agree. Work out your ascendant on the ascendant page; the full personal horoscope adds the Moon and the planets.
