Every zodiac has a guiding celestial body that expresses the essential personality traits of that sign. Some zodiacs share their ruling planet with another sign, giving them an inner bond. Signs with a shared planet have similar values and characteristics, and feel a close relationship with each other. Here are five zodiac duos with a unique celestial bond and what their ruling planets mean.
Aries & Scorpio
Aries is ruled by Mars, the planet of war, violence, action, and sexuality. The influence of Mars makes this fire sign energetic and spicy. Scorpio is primarily ruled by Pluto, the planet of transformation and rebirth, and, to a lesser extent, Mars. Having Mars as a ruling planet makes Scorpio a little edgier than other water signs.
Since Aries and Scorpio share Mars, they have a natural affinity for each other. Both have a fire inside, which gives them the strength to persevere through any challenge. Scorpio and Aries recognize a common sense of competition and ambition in each other, and appreciate each other’s sexual attraction. Although they are different in many ways, Mars brings fire and water together with these two zodiac signs.
Taurus & Libra
Taurus and Libra each have just one ruling planet. Both are ruled by Libra, the planet of love, beauty, art, and money. Due to the influence of Venus, these two stars are blessed with good natural looks, financial knowledge, and a strong sense of beauty.
When Libra and Taurus meet for the first time, they immediately recognize each other’s Venusian qualities. They are gentle, loving and friendly. As natural peacekeepers, they appreciate each other’s willingness to go with the flow and make everyone happy. Libra is an air sign while Taurus is an earth sign, so they have a lot of differences. But thanks to their Venus connection, these two have a lot in common and an undeniable bond.
Gemini & Virgo
Gemini and Virgo share Mercury as their ruling celestial body. Mercury is the planet of communication, knowledge, and wisdom. Due to the influence of Mercury, these two zodiacs are quite cerebral. They are constantly analyzing the world around them, learning new things, and searching for patterns in information threads.
When Virgo and Gemini meet, they finally get the mental boost they’ve always wanted. They have great conversations and never tire of talking to each other. Community spirit sign Gemini can bring earth sign Virgo out of their shell. Virgo helps Gemini stay focused and plan practical steps to achieve their goals. Together, these Mercury signs are a truly irresistible duo.
Sagittarius & Pisces
The fire sign Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of luck, growth, and wisdom. Water sign Pisces is ruled by Neptune, the planet of dreams, illusion, and spirituality, and, to a lesser extent, Jupiter.
Because of Jupiter, these two stars are blessed with good luck. Things always seem to go their way, as if the stars are aligned. Sunny, optimistic Sagittarius have an easy time accepting this good fortune – they believe that things will get better, so they do. Pisces, although sweet and gentle, tend to be pessimistic and prone to melancholy. Connecting with Sagittarius helps them to recognize and appreciate their inner gifts.
Sagittarius ignites the inner flame of Pisces, while Pisces cools and calms fiery Sagittarius. The influence of Jupiter dictates that these two stars are destined to meet and help each other grow and evolve.
Capricorn and Aquarius
Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, the planet of structure, authority, and discipline. Saturn’s powerful influence is a major reason for Capricorn’s reputation as the “father of the stars.” Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the planet of change, innovation, and technology, and, to a lesser extent, Saturn.
If it seems like Uranus and Saturn are in opposition, that’s because they are. Poor Aquarius struggles to balance its sensitive, traditional Saturn side with its energetic, progressive, eccentric Uranus self. Capricorn can teach Aquarius to enjoy a direct, controlling side, while Aquarius shows Capricorn that it is possible to be organized and free at the same time.
These two stars respect each other because of their shared Saturnian qualities. Their bond is unlike any other, and they can teach some valuable lessons that bring out the best parts of themselves.
