I know that a lot of traditional astrologers don't like same sign couples, but you know what they say... if you don't like it, don't get one!  Right now, I'm dating a Cancer and I couldn't be happier! I feel this different sense of completion with him, like yin and yang. I've dated at least one guy from every other Sun sign, but those relationships didn't feel as purposeful. I didn't feel like I could grow or learn anything from those relationships. Perhaps I feel a sense of "wholeness" with the Cancer because we both have Gemini Venus, which I suppose adds this essence of "twin flames" to our love. So what do you guys think? Have you ever dated the same Sun sign? What was your synastry? And how did it end? Or why is it still going? IP: Logged |

I haven't but I think it would help two people understand eachother. Astrology has really helped me to understand my partners needs and where they are coming from.
The only concern I'd have is if it would get boring. Two couples I can think of from the top of my head that are same sun relationship are all sun Capricorns. One of the couples are born the same year but only three days apart. IP: Logged |

I don't know if I could handle a relationship with more Cancer than I bring to it!  My ex had Cancer rising... and he's an ex for a reason. I know for a fact that I don't get along with Cancer + Leo energy. My ex roommate was a Cancer Sun and Mars with a Leo Mercury and we did not get along whatsoever. Honestly, at this point, I think I'd rather have an Aries. IP: Logged |

I feel that when you are more comfortable with your sun sign, its easier to deal with the same sign. Like looking in the mirror & being ok with what is looking back at you. When you haven't reconciled certain aspects of your personality traits associated with your sign, it's harder to get along with your sign because don't like those same qualities in yourself.....got me?  lolIP: Logged |

I've dated only one other Aquarius Sun before... he had a lot more water and earth in his chart than I do. I wouldn't say that we are all that similar.IP: Logged |

Well, I've never been with another Libra at least not that I'm aware of. I'm a Libra lady and I don't much like Libra men. Friends no problem but not relationships. I don't want to date someone so similar to myself. We'd drive each other crazy. Libra Risings aren't that bad though. However my ideal is an Aquarius. I've dated many Aquarians, and I love them... I can vouch for harmony in elementally compatible signs such as with other Airs signs or with Fire signs. I love the connection I have with other Air signs. It's the most organic and natural attraction and connection. IP: Logged |

I dated a guy with the same birthday as me, different moon signs but still both were fire moons. It felt very 'fated'. Different to any other relationship I've ever had. Had a certain depth to it, idk, very hard to explain. He felt like my soulmate but it ended badly. I don't think it was meant to end, at least not the way it did, but it did and we both have a lot of pride and are unlikely to extend an olive branch. The July eclipse happened to it.IP: Logged |

im currently in a relationship of 3 years with another libra, in fact we were born the same day. hes about 12 hours older than me  which makes a big difference giving him the warm charm of leo (funny enough being born in the morning) and giving me the earthy reserved signs. funny how it worked out. we get along really well, we do on occasion get into arguements, but its bound to happen, we both have our suns/merc conjunct mars and our venus's are conjunct pluto in scorpio so of course its gonna be stormy. ive read before that when 2 libras are in a relationship together they are either courting each other with love and affection or at each others throats, it might have even been a linda goodman book haha. we also have a giant 7 planet t-sqaure in our charts that pretty much plays out in our relationship as well. its a pretty deep relationship to say the least. it was an instant attraction too, we were both very intrigued by each other. we fell really hard for each other really fast and the strength of our bond has onnly gotten stronger. we're best friends, always hang out together, tell everything to each other as well. we just enjoy our company together,its very soothing and just feels right. we can act however we want infront of each other that we couldnt do infront of other people. and it doesnt have to be all lovey dovey every moment were together. i think we help each other out a lot. thats probably the venus/pluto conjunction, its transformed us for the better IP: Logged |

I really love other Leos and I've had good relationships with them. This is probably because Leo rules my 7th. However, looking at the list of Leo-Leo relations (especially that "Bennifer" one) I see a pattern similar to my own relations with other Leos. We have that "love at first sight" fast moving intensity at first, kind of like a high, and then we come crashing down back down to reality. Where can it go from here? Too much heaven?  Just recently I was semi-moved in with a Leo. We were discussing baby names (he wanted to name a boy after his uncle and I wanted to give a girl my mother's middle name) and planned an engagement party after two weeks! The relationship ended with a fizzle, two weeks before our birthdays/the engagement party. We knew it was over about a month before we ended it for good so it was a good thing we didn't send out invites! It really didn't end on a sour note but we both knew after eight months, that yeah, it was played out. Looking back I realize that it was just purely physical. He was beautiful to me and I was beautiful to him and we couldn't get enough of each other. It was like I was seeing a high school crush everytime I saw him or even got a text from him, that stomach flip feeling. My Venus was conjunct his Mars (in Leo!) and my Mars (Gemini) was square his Venus (Virgo) and our Suns were conjunct (he is 3 days and 9 years older). His Venus, Uranus and Pluto are all up in my 8th house. We also have a Venus/Neptune double whammy (trine and square) and a Venus/Chiron double whammy (both trine). Not too much going on with Mercury though but, really, did we need it? Actually yes! When I tried to talk about my life direction and career he just could not care less. It was something that was truly troubling me and he would literally roll his eyes and sigh. How dare I think such thoughts? He will take care of everything!'... Oh, and my Saturn was conjunct his Venus and AC (exact on his AC!!!) and his Moon/Saturn was conjunct my IC (Saturn exact on my IC!!!)... Oh well. I love that flip-flop feeling so I haven't given up on my Leo men yet! ETA: Don't forget Madonna & Sean Penn! ETA2: I forgot about my grandparents! Aries born on the same day (March 29), seven years apart. She is the more aggressive Aries and he was the quiet type. IP: Logged |

I think part of the problem is that my moon and sun are not very compatible, one being in Virgo, the moon in Aries. I choose one and the other suffers. The Virgos I dated never went long term and it's fine. I think I dated one virgo 12 years ago that I had amazing chemistry with but I wasn't looking for a relationship. So no, no relationship. Dating, yes. It was just ok. Kind of like hanging out with a sibling. Yay lol. My mother is an Aqua and married (3rd hubby) another Aqua. I want to say it is perfect. They get along but they are so different, it is ridiculous. I think it's partially because my mother got dating and marrying multiple times out of her system though A year before she met him she never would have married him. He is not her type - if anything, I urged my mother to marry my stepfather 20-odd years ago, and I am glad because it's working. They both have Pisces Venus, but her moon is in Cappy and his is in Gemini. They are really ridiculously different. She is the highly Uranian type with an element of Neptunian / Piscean slipperiness and whimsical feeling while he is the very Saturnine type of Aqua, Scorpio rising, VERY serious and yet somehow also very Zen too. She talks and never shuts up, he doesn't say much. IP: Logged |

^I think Same Sign Couples are interesting because they come from the same place but bring very different things to the table. When you can work together, that's when magic happens. When you can't, **** gets very bad, VERY QUICKLY.IP: Logged |

Jupiter in the 7th… Aries on the 5th house, and Cancer on the 8th …. when I close my eyes and envision the type of partner I see myself marrying… it’s someone kind of opposite to myself, who is outgoing, friendly, and playful, yet also really passionate and caring/sensitive .
Sounds like a Sagittarius, which makes sense considering your 7th house Jupiter.@topic: I definitely share an affinity with Cap guys. I look into their eyes and understand where they're coming from, no matter how different our demographic or upbringing or Moon/Venus/Mars etc. I really dig other Caps, too bad I don't meet many.

^ Muchos gracias por la corrección y su respuesta!(I'm trying to speak more foreign languages. It's my new "thing".) My Cancer friend has parents who are both Aquarius Suns. Apparently, their marriage is miserable but they've still managed to stay together. I wonder why... Must be heavy karma between the two. That, and the five kids. IP: Logged |

What astrologers say it's bad? Most of the ones I've read say that kind of thing is GOOD - if you mean in the sense of like, one having the moon in a particular sign and the other having the sun in the same sign. Right now I'm interested in a Cancer sun with a Leo Moon and I'm a Leo sun and his general energy just feels really natural and similar to my own, like we'd be on the same page. Then again my Mars is also in the same sign as his Sun, so that just adds to the common ground factor.I have seen same sun-signs kinda described as having the potential to be a bad thing. I don't think that's always the case, except when it comes to certain signs - I don't think two Leo SUNS would work together, that type of thing. But that aside in general it tends to work out because they 'get' each other and it's like their minds work similarly to some extent and they want similar things. So yeah, same signs I think is usually more a good thing than a bad one. IP: Logged |

There isn't an astrologer specifically, but I remember growing up and always reading the "astrology/horoscope" in like young women's magazines for example where the "professional" astrologer would say that you shouldn't date your own sign. They'd always say, "You should date a Scorpio. You're both water signs. (Ooooo)."Online I've come across those adverts that ask you "How compatible are you and your mate?" and lead you to say Yahoo! Horoscopes or some random dating site where they tell you that with the same sign "you two have a lot in common!" (Duh) but that you'll end up hating each other, etc. A lot of Sun Sign astrology books I've come across over the years are mostly ambivilant or warn against dating your own sign, typically advising to date within your own element. They're all mediocre sources, but it's still out there if you look for it.IP: Logged |
