Where it works and where it rubs
Elements. Water nourishes Earth: one offers emotional depth, the other stability and care. It is a protective, slow-building combination.
Modalities. Both of you are Fixed signs — determined and loyal, and equally stubborn when you disagree.
Polarity. Both are receptive (yin: Earth or Water) signs, so your basic energy matches.
