Air feeds fire: a naturally stimulating, sociable combination. In astrology the pair forms a opposition (opposite signs). Opposite signs are a classic case of 'opposites attract': each mirrors the other, which brings balance or tug-of-war.

## At a glance

Traditional harmony rating: ★★★☆☆ (based on the aspect between the signs). Real relationships depend on whole birth charts and, above all, on the people.
