It’s much simpler to understand basic astrological compatibility or synastry, than you may think—some people even call it elementary. You only need to consider the element associated with your sign to determine who you are most compatible with. The four elements of Fire, Earth, Air, or Water correspond to each of the 12 zodiac signs, and while they reveal a lot about you, they also reveal a lot about the people you get along with.
The principles are quite straightforward when it comes to the synastry or compatibility of signs depending on the elements. Since they are functioning at the same level or caliber, signs of the same element nearly always get along. They are in sync and have a basic understanding. Apart from that, the most successful partnerships are usually Earth and Water or Fire and Air. They are complementary components that help each other out.
Let’s examine the six most compatible combinations’ underlying dynamics.

Remember that the comparison of elements is not limited to self-identifying Sun signs; it may be done for all placements, such as Moon, Venus, Mercury, etc. Additionally, it’s not necessarily a sign that you are incompatible or not meant to be together if your synastry doesn’t perfectly align with that of your partner. One aspect of relationship astrology is synastry. Relationship dynamics are also examined by different aspects and techniques, such as composite charts.
