Read our zodiac pairings below for some lighthearted recommendations on all things love and compatibility to get you in the Valentine’s Day spirit, and be sure to let The USD Vista team know if you find love with a compatible sign!
Aries & Leo
Aries and Leos pair well together in this fiery combination of intense energy. Aries are known for being impulsive and exciting, which means they need a match that can keep up with their intensity. Leos are known for their warmth and their love of attention, and would bask in the all-consuming glow of an Aries. Though the combination of fire and fire can be a bit much at times, ultimately these two signs are able to keep up with and understand each other, fuel the fire if you will, in a way that earth and water signs may not.
Taurus & Pisces
The final sign in the astrological order is Pisces, a sign known for their sensitivity and kindness, making them a kind-hearted match to any of the signs. A practical Taurus would pair well with the Pisces, as they have a knack for romanticism. Though known for being a little introverted, and with Pisces being defined by their sensitivity, pairs from this sign could be hard to spark. However, once they come together, these duos can show how powerful combining quieter signs can be; combining earth and water creates clay, demonstrating how different signs can come together to create something new and useful.
Gemini & Libra
Both Geminis and Libras are both known to be analytical and witty but also sociable. This means that they have a lot in common which would help them hit it off pretty easily. Both of these signs require time and patience to acquire each other’s trust but once they do, these signs are incredibly loyal and will have each other’s backs until the end. Fun, flirty, and intelligent conversations combined with unwavering loyalty for each other is the perfect recipe for romance.
Cancer & Virgo
The practicality that characterizes Virgos can help stabilize the sensitive Cancers, who are known to be extremely emotional. However, what brings these two signs together is their practical nature and ability to put aside the chaotic tendencies of other signs in favor of stability. Most importantly, both these signs are known to be caring and calm signs, which means a duo that falls under these stars will be communicative and relatively unproblematic.
Sagittarius & Capricorn
One of the more unique pairings on this list, combining the practicality of Capricorns with the adventure of Sagittarius proves how opposites really do attract. Drawn to stability and security, Capricorns would be a pillar in the lives of the Sagittarius, who are characterized by their outrageous storytelling and their love for humor. Though the Capricorns could find the Sagittarius’ way of living unfamiliar, this draw to excitement could be just the push a Capricorn needs to step outside their own comfort zone.
Scorpio & Aquarius
Notoriously hard to match Scorpios are last on this list of pairings, as it takes someone really special to keep up with the fierce energy of the Scorpios. Passionate and relentless, these Scorpios seek a match that can keep up with their intensity. An Aquarius would serve the Scorpio well, as they are known for being a sign that has an intrinsic understanding of people. One of the most defining Aquarius tendencies is to always see the big picture, which would fit well with the all-consuming energy of the Scorpio, feeding into their relentless enthusiasm for passion and excitement.
