Five signs apart (a quincunx, 150°)

Taurus wants to settle, Sagittarius wants to see what is over the hill. Tradition reads the quincunx as an adjustment of appetite: both love pleasure, one at home and one abroad. It works when Taurus comes along sometimes and Sagittarius comes home sometimes.

Fire and earth pull in different directions: fire wants to begin, earth wants to be sure. Done well, that is a team of starter and finisher, with earth's patience giving fire's ideas a shape. Tradition reads the friction plainly: fire finds earth slow, earth finds fire careless, and both are sometimes right. It works when the pace is negotiated out loud.

Five signs apart, the two share nothing by element or modality, and tradition reads the pair as an adjustment: each has to learn the other's language from scratch, and the fascination is often strongest here. Nothing is assumed, so nothing is taken for granted. It works when both are curious and neither expects to be understood without explaining.

This reads two Sun signs only. A chart has ten bodies, a rising sign and houses, so two people with these Sun signs can make a very different pair. The birth chart calculator draws each chart in full.
