How To Know If Your Sign Is Compatible With Your Partner's

Aside from comparing moon and sun signs, you can also compare your rising sign, or ascendant, to figure out if you're a great match for your partner. The rising sign, which will be the Zodiacal sign that was ascending on the eastern horizon at the time you were born, represents the mask that you wear when you express yourself in brand new situations, per Vogue. As astrologer Diana Brownstone told Vogue, couples who have rising signs that are typically considered to be opposites (like Capricorns and Aries) will actually be more compatible. Opposites do attract, in this case. 

Brownstone also suggested examining your lunar nodes to see where they intersect with your partner's own lunar nodes. These mathematical and astronomical points are determined by the exact position of the sun and moon at the time you were born. These nodes function on an axis that determines the knowledge you've gained from your past and where you are going in your future to achieve your dreams, per Vogue. If your lunar nodes overlap with those of your partner, it's likely that your meeting and/or relationship was fated in the stars.

After comparing sun signs, moon signs, rising signs, and lunar nodes, be sure to look into the compatibility you share with your partner based upon your planets and houses, which should be laid out in detail in your birth chart. The compatibility of each separate component in your birth chart can be found through numerous websites and applications.
