While most people see astrology and horoscopes as a bunch of nonsense, there are many who take them very seriously. People who are into astrology look to the zodiac signs for guidance and to help them make the right choices in life. They also use them to find their perfect partner. By examining the zodiac chart you can discover what signs are best compatible with and which ones you should stay away from.

There are 12 different zodiac signs, each representing certain dates during the year. They are divided into a number of subgroups, including the four elemental signs of astrology: fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius), and water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces). Each elemental sign possesses its own personality traits, with fire signs being passionate while air signs are intellectual.

Knowing which sign is your best match takes a little research, so we’ve done the hard yards for you. While similar elemental signs generally get on well together, there are also other signs that make great partners. Below you will find some information about each of the 12 zodiac signs along with the best and worst matches to help you choose the right one for you.

Aries (March 21–April 19)

The first sign of the zodiac, Aries are dominant personalities who are bold and ambitious. They strive to be the best at everything they do and more often than not achieve what they set out to do accomplish. Like all fire signs, they are born leaders and have a gritty determination to get the job done. When it comes to relationships, they like to wear the pants and have a big say on how things go. That said, they also don’t want someone who they can walk over. Aries need a person who can complement their lifestyle without taking over.
