I've read on multiple astrology websites that the fire signs have this kind of attraction triangle or triad where one sign is attracted to one sign while simultaneously attracting another. It goes like this:

Aries is attracted to Sagittarius
Sagittarius is attracted to Leo
Leo is attracted to Aries.

I've noticed this pretty strongly in terms of sun signs anyways, since sun is fire's strongest planet. I am VERY attracted to Aries girls and find myself usually head over heels with them, and its usually a casual (but still strong) attraction back. Sag girls are REALLY attracted to me like how I am to Aries girls and I have a casual (but still strong) attraction back. I've seen Aries suns go head over heels for Sag suns, etc.

How often do you notice this attraction triad? I think it also goes for the energies as well. So anyone with Aries energies will instinctively be attracted to Sagittarius energies, even rising, moon, merc, etc.

Wouldn't that apply to all of the other elements also?
Yes...they all trine each other.

The way I look at is we're all normally attracted(as in get each other) to those that are similar in our own nature because it's easier. You get one another better than you would someone who isn't of the same nature. Romantically it's all over the place, the possibilities are endless.

Yeah they're gonna trine each other, but going back to her pattern you notice Aries is not attracted to Leo so to speak, it only works one way. Leo is not attracted to Sagittarius, etc.

I'm an Aries and Leos love me, but I always chase Sagittariuses. Sags never chase me but I see them chase Leos.

How do you know this though? Is there a book or a guide that lists this somewhere? More than likely no. There are so many possibilities romantically.
What you may like or attract doesn't apply to everyone else.

EDIT Not trying to be an as$, I just think logically and fairly.

Like elements trine. Pretty simple.

I like air most and I'm Leo sun that is earth dominant.
My moon is air and my asc is air.

My best friend is the ONLY Virgo that I like and I have three Virgo planets.

I do like sag and Aries but we butt heads too much.
I always attracted sag's though I was never attracted much to any fire sun.

I noticed a similar version to this but stuff like that is applicable to earth air and water signs too. We have a natural attraction to signs in our elements, that's for sure

I have completely noticed the same triad chase. I have experienced the same chasing triad with my own encounters with an Aries man and a Sagittarius man. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I'm a Leo by the way :P

Feminine signs get along with each other each as well. So the Earth and Water signs are like interchangeable in terms of attraction, whereas the masculine one's really work the best with their own elements. Air with air and fire with fire.

This is the fire triad. Its just so funny how obvious it is. Or people with fire moons of one type will go to the sun of the type it chases. So Aries moons usually like Sag suns, Leo moons like Aries Suns, Sag moons like Leo suns. But they also like their same energy in its sun sign version. So Aries moons like Aries Suns and vice versa. Leo moons like Leo Suns and vice versa. Sag moons like Sag suns and vice versa. These energies are all the ones fire really really likes.

I don't know, I find myself not liking Air signs or air dominant people as much as I like Fire dominated people. I just don't sense as much vitality and spontaneity. I'm sure Air dominant people here really like other air dominant people. My family is mainly air dominant and they get along great with each other, but I don't have much air so there's some friction between us.

There is no set in stone rule or book of thumb though. I've attracted men of every element fire included. Just because you like one thing doesn't mean everyone else of your same sign or element will, you aren't the stand alone example for all Leo men, just like I'm not for all Libra women.

There are endless possibilities in romance with astrology. Balance is key, too much of one and not enough of another is never good. You need a good, healthy mix of all. Besides technically(discussed many times by professional astrologers) Fire and Air, Water and Earth go together, their elements go very well together, people can deny all they want but it's the truth.

I've never seen what you're talking about. I've seen more Fire/Air and Earth/Water couples than anything else.

You're proving my point, you said masculine signs go with masculine signs, then Leo infact does go with Libra. Fire/Air are masculine, are they not? You can't just pat one group on the back and toss out the other 2 hahaha.

All in all you can't compare yourself as one for everyone else, we're all humans with our own opinions and own likes/dislikes.

He just read the theory online and it seems true for him so hes trying to see if it really is a thing, an astrological rule.

I myself found the rule "you are attracted to the sign the same or opposite as your ascendent interesting. It's strange that when my progressed ascendent moved to Pisces from Aquarius, I enjoyed negative sun signs a lot more, whereas before I had no interest.

I myself dont know if the rule applies for me. I actually chase and get chased (it seems) the opposite of how the theorized rule goes

Before my friend said Mutable signs are the ones that need to be chased. And I guess Cardinal would do the most chasing. And Fixed I dont know. They wait. hahah

I think you can see eye to eye more with signs of the same polarity (+-) then not. But, I read that there may be big misunderstandings of the persons character who isnt of the same polarity as you. But really we are just seeing a perspective of the person that isnt exactly agreeable with that persons own perspective. Their perspective of themselves isnt necessarily all that they are.

Umm in my experience, I'm crazy attracted to Aries guys. But Sag guys swarm me like bees on honey. The Aries guys I'm attracted to are usually attracted to me, though. So like, I really can't confirm this whole triad thing. I've only actually been attracted to one Sag.

ok well i am a fixed sign, and actually i have been chased by mutable. And i guess i did technically kinda chase a cardinal sign once (of same element). so dont take me as a point against this rule

As a rule, signs of the same element are attracted to eachother. What we are trying to discern is the relationship dynamic between the different modes. They will likely be attracted either way, but who is the pursuer and who is the pursued is what we are trying to figure out.

I read it in another book too, but I did not agree.

I think I didn't like the "triangle" perspective; it made it seem like no-one gets what they truly want. That everyone is going after someone who wants someone else.

It makes it seem like one sign is always at the "mercy" of another. That one sign can only be the "second runner up" to another etc.

Many people ask "who is "better" for the Leo? Aries or Sag?"

My answer is; it depends on what that particular Lion is looking for.

It could be found that neither are "best", but more those within the water,earth or air denominations.

But why is that so important?

What if there is no way in hell that that that proud Leo guy will approach me? No matter how many times I catch them staring at me across the room?

So if this Sag's affections are just as ardent as the Lion's are and I initiate the courtship,who is to say whom wanted it "more"?

Who is the "pursuer" and who is "pursued" in this scenario? Does it even matter if the Lion is not at all resistant?

And even if they are resistant. Could it be that they are doing it for courtship rituals and not because they don't want to tear my clothes off the moment I talk to them?

I don't get why its so important to have one sign "want" the other more than the other is reciprocating?

This will start off a weird theory like; "Leo's are always pursued by Aries" or "Sag's always are rejected by Leo" etc.

Well I dont care much. You know that since there is so much to astrology other than the sun, that this rule probably isnt very applicable

I'm not sure I get that theory.
I think it's based on houses.. but it still doesn't sound right.

Leo is the 5th sign from Aries.. so Leo represents the 5th house: "love/fun/dating" for Aries. On that basis Aries would be attracted to Leo.

Sagittarius is the 5th sign from Leo.. so Leo should technically be attracted to Sagittarius.

And finally Aries represents the 5th house of "love" for Sagittarius... so Sagittarius would -in theory- be more attracted to Aries.

I don't see it in practice anyway... In practice Aries/Leo works better because these signs are more focused on their immediate reality and their goals in life. Sagittarius is transpersonal and not as interested in having a relationship with anyone.
But the synastry can change everything...

Oh hang on... Your whole theory is exactly the other way around.
I wonder why that is...

So whoever thought of this theory - must be saying that.. the 5th house sign is the sign who falls in love.
In that case.. Leo is the 5th house for Aries... so Leo loves Aries.

That's not the "traditional" way to view the houses though.

Generally if someone's Sun Sign falls into a person's 5th house.. then it's the 5th house person who is more interested. That's what I've read anyway.


Aries23 -

It made it seem like no-one gets what they truly want. That everyone is going after someone who wants someone else.

If this is based on the house theory.. then that's not the general idea. In a grand trine.. one sign always represents the 5th house and the other sign always represents the 9th house. It's not that no one gets what they want... but no one gets what they have to *give*.. What they give and what they get are different things.

The discrepancy is the same in almost any relationship. Square signs represent the 4th house and the 10th house. So.. again.. one sign will play the 10th (e.g. a fatherly role) and one sign will play the 4th (e.g. a motherly role).

Sextile signs represent the 3rd and 11th houses.. So one person is the "communicator" in the relationship.. and the other person is inspirational dream weaver... e.g. Gemini brings communication/writing/ideas/friendship in the life of Aries.. and Aries brings inspiration/action/dream fulfilment in the life of Gemini.

The only relationships where the people involved are playing the exact same role.. are conjunctions and oppositions. Libra will always represent the 7th house for Aries.. and Aries will always represent the 7th house for Libra.
With conjunctions - Both partners represent the 1st house.
