Hey Gemini, These Are Your Best — And Worst — Love Matches

Are you looking for love, Gemini? Searching for that perfect someone who’s always up for a playdate and some witty repartee?

And, perhaps more importantly, did you know you could use astrology as a sort of cheat sheet to romantic compatibility?

It’s true! By looking at the element (earth, air, fire, or water) and quality (cardinal, fixed, or mutable) of your signs, you could get a glimpse of how you two will work together as a couple.

Air signs (that’s you!) are usually the most compatible with fire signs and other air signs. Fire signs are known for their passion and impulsivity. They’re brave, bold, adventuring, and a little flashy. Air signs are known for their intellect and curiosity. They never stop thinking, and will bounce from one idea to the next.

In addition, mutable signs (you again!) work best with cardinal or fixed signs. Cardinal signs are known as leaders and are big-idea people, and fixed signs are stabilizing influences. It’s not impossible for two mutable signs to make a good match, but since you’re known as the most flexible and adaptable of the signs, and you’re not always comfortable leading, pairing up with another mutable sign might lead to indecision or stagnation.

So are you and the object of your affection written in the stars? Read on to find out!

Best: Aries

With Aries, a cardinal fire sign, you’ll find a playful partner who’ll go toe-to-toe with you in the energy department. And Aries’ tendencies towards leadership could balance out your more flexible (or indecisive) ways.

Best: Leo

With Leo, a fixed fire sign, you’ll find a partnership that balances you both out. You can temper their larger-than-life emotions (read: rants and tantrums) and they can bring their big-heartedness to your intellectual curiosity. This is definitely a fun-loving relationship.

Best: Libra

With Libra, a cardinal air sign, you’ll never run out of things to talk about. You’re both intellectual, curious, and chatty, and so you work wonderfully as a team. You’re also both social butterflies, so your social calendar will be packed full.

Best: Aquarius

With Aquarius, a fixed air sign, you’ll have a partnership full of intellectual curiosity and stimulation. You both thrive on newness and change, and you’re both gifted communicators, which will ensure that the conversation will never run dry.

Worst: Taurus

With Taurus, a fixed earth sign, you’ll find them too stubborn and, honestly, boring. And they’ll find you flighty and inconsistent. They’re the consummate homebody, and you can’t stand being in the same place all the time. You won’t bring out the best in each other.

Worst: Virgo

With Virgo, a mutable earth sign, your free-wheeling curiosity will be bogged down by their need to analyze and critique. You want to go where the wind takes you, they can’t move beyond the details. You’ll both end up frustrated.

Worst: Scorpio

With Scorpio, a fixed water sign, your social butterfly-ness won’t be appreciated by their desire for intimacy and privacy. Scorpio also likes to dwell on the dark and introspective parts of life, and you really would rather keep things light-hearted.

Worst: Pisces

With Pisces, a mutable water sign, you’ll love their sense of playfulness at first. But eventually your light-hearted and at-times fickle approach to life will hurt their feelings. Their sensitivity and need for constant intense connection will feel like a drag, and you might start looking around for something else.
