Best matches
These signs generally get along well with each other:
More than your sun sign
Your sun sign is only one spot in your birth chart. Your moon sign, your rising sign and the positions of all the planets colour the whole picture. So what a magazine says about Leo never fits you completely. A personal analysis based on your birth date, birth time and birth place says far more.
The borders between two signs can shift by a day from year to year. If you were born near such a border, your birth time shows which sign is truly yours.
