What is Zodiac Sign Incompatibility?

What is Zodiac Sign Incompatibility?

Zodiac sign incompatibility means your Zodiac Sign does not typically get along with another one. It means that each of your traits make communication strained, makes it hard for you to work together, and makes it hard for you to have a relationship. It's not fair. Of the 12 Zodiac signs, each of them have other signs that they are naturally more compatible with, and others they are naturally least compatible with. Besides your Sun Sign, your Venus Sign says a lot about love. Read all about that here: What Do Venus Signs Say About Love?

Let's start with Earth Signs. They are most compatible with other Earth Signs and Water Signs. The Earth Zodiac Signs are Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. They are naturally very reliable and loyal people who work out the best way of doing things for themselves, and they tend to stick with that for life. They are creatures of habit and they are typically in charge. That's for two reasons. First, they don't like being told what to do, and secondly, they love to tell other people what to do. They're very protective though. Water Signs, Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces really appreciate the loyalty and protectiveness of Earth Signs. They don't mind following their lead.

Air signs Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius are too independent to let an Earth Sign boss them around. They're also flexible individuals who like to have a variety of experiences and Earth Signs drive them up the wall doing things the same way over and over. Fire Signs, Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius share all of these qualities with Air Signs and clash with Earth Signs because of this. Air Signs and Fire Signs get along well with one another because they understand one another's need for freedom and variety. They can be pretty stubborn in their own ways, but they need a lot of flexibility in life in general. Read more about Air Sign Libra here: Libra Traits and Love Compatibility

Water Signs have problems with Fire Signs and Air Signs. Fire signs and air signs are extremely outspoken and they can be insensitive sometimes. About half the time that is unintentional, but sometimes that's intentional. Air and Fire Signs value brutal honesty and would rather hear or tell the truth than sugar coating things to protect somebody's feelings. Water Signs are very emotional and sensitive and Earth Signs can be very understanding of their need for sugar coating. Air and Fire Signs will cut you off if they feel like there is a deal breaker, and Water and Earth Signs find this heartbreaking.

The Star Sign’s Incompatibility

Besides there being Signs that clash with each other, there are traits that clash with them regardless of Zodiac Sign. Each Sign has their own pet peeves and things they cannot abide by. From Aries to Pisces, if you understand what each of the Signs cannot tolerate, you will know what is most incompatible with them. You will also know what to do to work out your differences. Read on to find out what is incompatible with each Zodiac sign and what you can do about it.

Aries Incompatibility

Aries people can't stand to feel stuck in a situation they don't like. They can't stand to be pushed around, but they especially can't stand to be told what to do by someone who does not know as much as them. They can't stand when people are in their way when they're trying to get things done, and they cannot tolerate laziness in any form. If you want them to do something, ask them respectfully. Be honest about your competence levels with them and don't try to act like you know more than you do. Don't try to tie them down to something that doesn't serve them. Whatever you do, get out of the way if you can't help them, because they have important things to do. Understand these things and you'll get along just fine with an Aries.

Taurus Incompatibility

Taurases can't stand to see people they love destroy themselves and make terrible decisions. They can't stand it if you won't let them nurture you when they love you. They also can't stand it if you try and disrupt the comfortable balance that they have at home. They will be the head of the household, even if they're not the breadwinner. They are masters at taking care of people, and establishing the proper home life as the first step to that. Never interfere with any of this and don't destroy yourself or your health and you will get along just fine with a Taurus. Read more about Taurus here: Taurus Zodiac Traits and Love Compatibility

Gemini Incompatibility

Geminis need a lot of variety, a lot of mental stimulation, and a lot of mobility. Never ever bore a Gemini. If you can't carry on an interesting conversation about a variety of new topics, don't bother to talk to a Gemini. If you can't pack up and travel or go to these wonderful attractions that they'd like to, don't get in the way of them doing so. You cannot maintain a long term relationship if you are a stick in the mud who doesn't want to do anything, try anything, learn anything, or see anything new. If you love adventure, mental stimulation, and new experiences, you will be highly compatible with a Gemini.

Cancer Incompatibility

Cancer Incompatibility

Cancers can't stand to be in a relationship with someone who hurts their feelings. Cancers need to feel comfortable, and they're not going to feel comfortable if everything is crazy and out of hand. Cancers don't mind someone else calling the shots, but it has to make them feel secure. If you want to work things out with a Cancer, be prepared to have heart to heart conversations on a regular basis about what works for them. Otherwise you are going to be incompatible with them.

Leo Incompatibility

Leos are kings or queens of their own world. They will be treated as such or you will not be a part of that world. They don't think they're superior. It's just that the people who they love are their number one priority and they expect the same treatment. It doesn't matter if you are their lover, friend, or colleague. If you can't treat them as well as they treat you, they don't have room for you in their life. There is no room to argue about this. Treat Leos with the same courtesy, respect, and consideration that they give you and you will be compatible with them. Otherwise, you won't.

Virgo Incompatibility

Whether it be at home, at work, or in the community they're involved with, Virgos are going to be in charge. They appreciate people they can trust to share responsibility with because they understand that they can't do everything on their own. If you are a wishy washy untrustworthy individual, at least in their eyes, you have no compatibility with them. Virgos are always sizing people up and looking at what they feel are their qualifications. If they feel that you are in any way unqualified, you are not compatible with them.

Libra Incompatibility

Libras need harmony and have a great love of what they feel is beautiful. A harmonious life is the most beautiful thing they can think of. If you jeopardize their peace, you are not compatible with them and they will cut you off. The difficult thing with Libras is, they won't always make it clear what is unharmonious for them. They believe that everybody has a right to be how they naturally are and they know better than to try and change people. So instead of telling you what brings harmony into their life, they will observe and see if you do. If you don't, you are not compatible with them.

Scorpio Incompatibility

Some people think that Scorpios are buckets of anger and are emotionally needy. That's not true. However, their emotions are very powerful and deserve to be protected. If you upset them on a regular basis, you are incompatible with them. What upsets them is people not respecting their boundaries, not listening to them, or not being loyal. Some people assume that Scorpios are control freaks, and sure, some of them can be. However, people of any Zodiac Sign can be controlling. Like with Cancers, if you can have heart to heart talks to work things out with Scorpios, you will be compatible with them. Read more about Scorpio here: Scorpio Traits and Love Compatibility

Sagittarius Incompatibility

Sagittarius Incompatibility

Sagittarians are fun. If they think you are fun, you are compatible with them. Everybody wants to be friends with the Sagittarius, but not everybody has what it takes to do that. Sagittarians like to take chances, like to have new experiences, and love to take daring risks. If you can do those things with them, you will be compatible with the Sagittarius. If you try to hold them back from the exciting things they decide to do, you will be incompatible with them. To be fair, some Sagittarians take stupid chances, but that's their decision, not yours. Take some chances with them and you will have perfect compatibility with them.

Capricorn Incompatibility

Capricorns are levelheaded, hardworking, reliable people. They need people in their lives who are the same way. If you are this person, they will be compatible with you. If you are not, they will not have room for you in their lives. Capricorns have an impossibly long To Do List, and that's because a lot of people need them. Capricorns take their responsibilities and duties to others very seriously. If you have a natural way of helping them to rest and not overwork themselves, you have the ultimate compatibility with the Capricorn.

Aquarius Incompatibility

Each Aquarius is different. So, what an Aquarius needs and his or her life will vary from person to person. One thing they all need is respect for what they tell you they need, and they will make that very clear early on. If you can respect and accommodate these things, you will be compatible with your beloved Aquarius. If not, just be honest about that and move on because you have no compatibility with them.

Pisces Incompatibility

Every Pisces needs two things. First, they need to know that they can count on you, and two, they need space sometimes. You cannot suffocate them when they need some privacy and time to themselves, but they need you to be there for them when the time comes that they call on you. This might sound one-wayed, but it's not. Your Pisces will make time for you, but when they need to recharge their emotional batteries with some private time, if you can give it to them, you will be compatible with them.

Can We All Get Along?

In truth, yes, we can all get along, but it depends on one thing- whether we will all cooperate. A lot of times, there are two people who claim to love each other, and want a relationship. One of these people will bend over backwards, doing all they can to work things out. The other person takes, is stubborn, and makes everything all about them , on only their terms, and it’s their way or the highway. At a certain point, the person who is the only one putting effort into things wakes up, and realizes this is a one-wayed relationship. Astrology and our Zodiac Signs are in no way to blame for this. Personal decisions are.

We can’t compromise everything, but we all have to compromise in general for relationships. Some people refuse to do that all their lives. It is very difficult for anybody to be involved in a personal relationship with them at all. It doesn’t matter how much you love someone, or how much they say they love you. You can’t have a relationship just based on love. Actions as well as what we say we feel contribute a lot. You can’t have a life, make memories, and experience things with someone who pushes you away, tries to change you, or expects to be catered to instead of reciprocating. So sometimes, you cannot get along with someone, and that’s on them.

Each Zodiac sign has certain things that are more or less compatible with them, and each Zodiac sign can balance, compromise, and respect boundaries and be more or less compatible with each of the Zodiac signs. Learning what your loved one needs and wants in a relationship and accommodating it will give you perfect compatibility with them no matter what their Zodiac Sign is.
