Are you in love with someone that's star sign isn't compatible?

I've met someone, its lovely, he's great, it's going so well but apparently our star signs, Gemini and Cancer, aren't compatible. I just want everything to be right. Does the day you were born have a bearing on how well you get on with someone? I wish I hadn't looked it up now...

I have no idea. I know what my star sign in, but would have to look up DH’s.

TheGrumpyGoat · 15/09/2021 09:20

We are, however, compatible. We’ve been married for 10 years and still very much in love.

Recycledblonde · 15/09/2021 09:29

Apparently we are not star sign compatible. We’ve been married 31 years.

Sorry but this is all waffly nonsense.
I've been very happily married 30+ years to someone supposedly not my compatible star sign.

SpindleWhorl · 15/09/2021 09:31

I don't know why posters are scoffing. Astrology has been proven by experts and doctors of astrolore from the University of Sky Science (P.O. Box 555, Las Vegas, correspondence courses only) to have an absolute grounding in quantum mechanics. You either believe it or you don't.

MydogWillow · 15/09/2021 09:36

Surely you're the only one who knows if you're compatible?

Trust your gut and go with the flow.

Everything will be "right" if you enjoy it for what it is without looking for problems. Self-fulfilling prophecy otherwise.

@Cazzovuoi Ahahaha, thanks that cheered me right up reading that! If it's raining you can just leave him on a window ledge on the light of the full moon, that works too. Sit him in a bowl of water if possible, helps absorb the woo. Good luck 😉

ShowOfHands · 15/09/2021 09:40

I've been with DH for 22yrs and don't even know his star sign. If I check it and we are incompatible, do I leave him? Who keeps the children? Is that done on their star sign or the day I leave and whether Uranus is on the wane?

Help!

only horoscope you need

BarefootHippieChick · 15/09/2021 09:45

@KingsleyShacklebolt

We've been married 20 years and I don't think I even know what star sign DH is.

Me neither. I find it amusing that people get so invested but each to their own

Does the day you were born have a bearing on how well you get on with someone?

No, it has no bearing.

frazzledasarock · 15/09/2021 09:54

My friend gave up her relationship with a man who's birth charts were not compatible with hers, her parents (and his) were very opposed to the marriage because of it. And she decided to go with the family.

She's happily married now to someone who's star charts matched hers.

Friend in this instance is from an eastern culture. So people do believe in it and give it emphasis.

SantanaBinLorry · 15/09/2021 09:56

I dont know the star signs of my children. It really winds up people who believe in this twaddle. I'm gemini, maybe my other me know my kids signs... wwwwoooooooo!

I don’t know my children’s star signs either!
KeyboardWorriers · 15/09/2021 10:00

I would consult the astrology pages of the Sun. Maybe there will be some vague hope you can cling to in the predictions for this month?

Or maybe scatter some positive energy crystals around the house to balance out the negative energy of your star signs being incompatible.

Preech · 15/09/2021 10:02

I'm a Cancer married to an Aries. So far, so good. There's a bit of "who's in charge here" between us, but for the most part, we complement each other. Grin It may help that Aries DH is on the cusp of Pisces, so comes across as more laid back than a textbook Aries (except when he wants to do something special... then it's military precision organization and leading the rest of us). Wink I have a fire sign ascendant too, and if we ever figure out his, it may turn out he has a water sign one.

The youngest DD, on the other hand, is a textbook Aries. She will even headbutt my legs when she's feeling stubborn about something. Hmm

I take in astrology for fun. Grin it's something my mom used to do as a hobby: she can even make the detailed charts with enough time and info. Get the big Linda Goodman book that describes how each sign pairing can get along if you're into your star signs!

Thedogshow · 15/09/2021 10:02

Definitely LTB hun

Blindleadingtheblind · 15/09/2021 10:04

It's all bullshit otherwise 1/12 of the population would have identical traits depending on their star sign. Even identical twins have different personalities ffs so how can star signs be accurate?

CoronaPeroni · 15/09/2021 10:09

I'd love to know the 'science' behind astrology. What do believers believe happens at birth within that 30 day cycle that determines their fate? Also wouldn't that mean there are only 12 types of personalities?

HaggisBurger · 15/09/2021 10:14

Ha! I’m not scoffing @Mirandaandsteve I was actually going to start a similar thread. I’m in a new relationship and our compatibility is dire on Co-Star and lots of other things that do your charts (Taurus / Aquarius). Bizarrely he brought it up before me quite early on. Which I thought was quite sweet (I don’t think of men being interested in stuff like astrology etc). I should say that both of us are otherwise intelligent and rational people (despite this evidence to the contrary). But we are a terrible match astrologically - too different to be compatible not not different enough to have the fire of complete opposites …

Sceptre86 · 15/09/2021 10:15

I'm a Virgo, dh is an Aquarius and apparently we aren't compatible. 7 years married, 3 kids it's not a picnic everyday but our home is a happy one. I don't believe in giving too much importance to starsigns.

SmileyClare · 15/09/2021 10:16

I've just read a Gemini horoscope for today. If you've been wondering if the universe can be fair, now is the time to believe you will get the outcome you deserve

All fantastically vague and easy to apply to your relationship dilemma. Hope that helps. Grin

ThePlantsitter · 15/09/2021 10:19

You're doing astrology wrong! The whole point is that you believe the bits you like and disregard the bits you don't. So: 'you're a very gifted communicator Gemini and everyone loves you' - wow I can't believe how accurate star signs are. 'a Gemini Taurus relationship is tricky at best' - what a load of balls astronomy is.

(Together for 15 years with a badly aligned horoscope match)

Aria2015 · 15/09/2021 10:22

Yes! 18 years together and still very happy. Also worked with a lady who had the same combination star sign as me and dh and her and her dh are the sweetest pair and have been married over 40 years and have 3 kids and 7 grandkids so I always took that as a good sign!

HardStaringBearFromDarkestPeru · 15/09/2021 10:31

I was born 2 months prematurely - emergency c-section.
Does this mean my star sign is determined by the date of my 'forced' birth or the due date my mother was given whilst carrying me?
Will this affect my chances of ever finding true love?
