How is this score calculated?
In traditional astrology, every sign has an element (fire, earth, air, water). Depending on whether two signs share an element, complement each other, oppose each other, or are neutral, a fixed score and comment is shown. This isn't a full birth-chart comparison — just a fun, quick first look based on sun signs.

History of zodiac compatibility
- Origin
- Hellenistic astrology; the idea of comparing two people's birth charts.
- When
- In the 2nd century, Ptolemy considers two charts together in the “On marriage” chapter of the Tetrabiblos.
- Today
- The simple form based on sun signs and element compatibility spread with the newspaper horoscopes of the 20th century.
- How it is done
- The elements and planets of the two signs and their positions relative to each other are compared.
The idea of comparing two people's birth charts goes back to Hellenistic astrology. In the “On marriage” chapter (IV.5) of the Tetrabiblos, written in the 2nd century, Ptolemy considers whether the Sun and the Moon stand in harmonious aspects (trine or sextile) in the two people's charts. The zodiac compatibility common today, based only on sun signs and elements, is a simplified form of this old approach; newspaper columns focused on sun signs spread from the 1930s onwards.
