Opposition Relationship Pitfalls

Aries-Libra: This relationship often begins as very loving, caring and... #goals, essentially. It's quite beautiful, until it takes it's nasty turn. Just as in EVERY teenage movie from early 2000's and before, the Cheerleader and Jock don't work out, however, one of them finds out they fit a lot better with someone new. The two are constant chasers, and when they aren't chasing one another, you can bet it's someone new.

Taurus-Scorpio: This relationship starts out bad and ends bad, like most Fixed Sign relationships. Taurus is possessive and Scorpio's obsessive, so it bubbles over with toxicity from... just about the beginning. This relationship is very often sex and object based, and Taurus is quite often on the losing team. Keep in mind your partner is a person, and you can avoid that. But, the never ending stubborn-ness of both sides is equally as heartbreaking to live in. Cause the love never ends here - but tolerance does.

Gemini-Sagittarius: As neutral people, they're naturally distant and absorbed in their own lives, ways of thinking, and ideals. They often come at odds end with these things, especially being that they both feel their backed by logic - however Sagittarius's way of thinking is often much more creative than Gemini's, who's a master of wits. This relationship can be a game of chess - one manipulating the other and the other retaliates - until the relationship meets it's end. If you're lucky enough not to have this problem, the distance you create will inevitably be the death of it.

Cancer-Capricorn: Good ol' Mom and Dad never fight until... they do. Forcing themselves into solitude together, this relationship is based on a Support-Support system, as well as a Submissive-Dominate system. Often enough, if Cancer makes more money and shifts the balance a bit, Capricorn's hatred for change in power may just turn the relationship from positive to negative. Cancer may feel suffocated, or at very best - Capricorn feels powerless.

Leo-Aquarius: The people pleasers of the zodiac want you to be happy. And you... and you. Everyone. But while both do it for the feeling of pride and goodness in their hearts, one is a lot more vindictive than the other, and can be awfully selfish (or the other is). This balance tends to tip - and one's distance often becomes the downfall, as if Leo doesn't get the attention they feel they deserve, they'll find it somewhere else.

Virgo-Pisces: While Creative Thinking is wonderful, it's difficult to have the two together on their own. Creative and Dreamy Pisces is often neglected and put down by logically and hope-bogging Virgo, turning the relationship from balanced to pessimism vs. optimism.

*Keep in mind not all relationships will turn out this way, but this is the way they go down if they do end, typically. that being said tell me about your experience with opposite sign relationship

Yep, We have 3 oppositions, one a DW. (Leo/Aqua suns, Libra/Aries and Leo/Aqua venus-mars).

The pitfalls are accurate, but it's not a foregone conclusion that they end badly, or end at all.

I think it really depends on how much both people are willing to accept and compromise. It's harder when you have that constant push back, but not out of the realm of possibility. You just have to work a little harder (and more often) to get to that place.

I agree

anyone can make it work if they love each other enough

the opposites are hard because it feels like someone is not getting what they need ...enough attention, time, space, or affection ...I wonder how many people make it work for the long haul

Yeah, not the easiest for sure.

You think everything is going along smooth as silk and then you hit a wall. It happens all the time, never really ends. You end up realizing that it's never going to end, so you have learn to let it roll off or you have to bail. No alternative.

I will say that the big mega data analysis that some astrologers did a while back showed that Leo/Aqua marriages were the #1 most long lasting of all Leo and Aqua combinations, regardless of which sex was which sign. So there's that. 🙂

This was a very interesting post, thank you! I'm not sure I agree with the statement that most fixed relationships begin badly, but they can definitely end in a trainwreck.
