Sometimes we need a sign that a relationship is meant to be. In some cases, a star sign. The zodiac can be your wayfinder when you’re searching for your spouse. Read on to see your match made in (celestial) heaven.
What zodiac signs match well together?
Opposite zodiac signs are said to be soulmates because they bring each other balance. For example, a sensible Earth sign might crave the spontaneity of a more lighthearted Air sign, making life feel more fulfilling, while the Air sign idolizes their partner’s drive. Like a color wheel, the contrast is complementary.
Opposite zodiac relationships are proof that a couple doesn’t have to be like-minded to be in tune with one another, and they don’t always have to agree to make decisions together. In fact, a harmonious marriage can come from differences. Your other half can challenge you in exciting and necessary ways, or shine in areas where you’re less confident.
Here are the opposites on the zodiac wheel, said to bring wedded bliss:
- Libra – Aries
- Taurus – Scorpio
- Gemini – Sagittarius
- Cancer – Capricorn
- Leo – Aquarius
- Pisces – Virgo
All that being said, every relationship is unique. Star signs are a fun identity marker. Like a medallion necklace, they’re symbolic. The zodiac gives us a sense of certainty and guidance when we’re feeling lost. But you and your partner can shape your own identity (and fate), having found that reassurance in love.
Are certain zodiac signs more compatible than others?
When you want smooth sailing, star signs within the same element are said to be compatible. Because while relationships are complicated and take effort, they don’t have to feel like it. It’s easy for zodiac couples with the same element to bring out the “best” in each other because they share those qualities. Air and Fire are outgoing, lively types — together they’re dynamic and social and bring the fun. Earth and Water are more grounded (naturally), so they have an easygoing, communicative partnership.
Typically, zodiac pairs tend to be a mix or match of fire and air signs, or earth and water signs. These unions will lead to that straightforward love, rather than star-crossed lovers. It doesn’t mean difficulties won’t arise; it only implies that you’ll feel secure tackling your worries together because you and your partner share a similar outlook on life.

Zodiac Compatibility
Compatibility doesn’t mean the absence of conflict, it might just mean less of it or a simpler time overcoming it. And remember that your bond is bigger than a star chart. What’s important in a marriage is that you value your partner and your own growth; that you recognize what you both need and offer (the traits you both have from experience vs. when you were born). You should both understand how you like to spend time and respect how much of that time you each expect to spend together.
To find that “alignment,” these zodiac signs are said to be your power couples.

Aries (Ram): March 21–April 19
Libra: An Aries is domineering and wants to take charge, and the diplomatic Libra is happy to let them do so. It works out: the Aries acts on intuition and impulse, making up for the Libra’s indecision. But because a Libra is careful and controlled, they can reign in the reckless Aries.

Cancer (Crab): June 22–July 22
Pisces: Cancers look for long-term lovers, so it makes sense that their would-be-weds are star signs known for being nostalgic and very in their feelings. A couple of water signs, the Cancers love the Pisces for their strong empathy.

Cancer: The ambitious Capricorn craves security, and the predictable Cancer answers the call.

What zodiac signs should marry each other?
Astrology suggests you should marry your zodiac opposite or a star sign that shares the same element. But ultimately, for your love to endure, your partner should improve your life and bring joy to it; they should understand what triggers you and what you need from them when you’re stressed.
It’s romantic to believe that our love was written in the stars. And sure, certain qualities may be more compatible than others. In the end, marry who you want to regardless of your partner’s zodiac sign.
