4 Zodiac Duos Who Fall In Love At First Sight

PISCES & SCORPIO

Pisces thinks the dark and mysterious anti-hero (or heroine) of their fantasies doesn’t exist outside of print, until Scorpio walks into the room.  There is something so understated, so innate about their appeal that it seems to suck all the oxygen out of the room, causing Pisces to catch their breath. From the other end, Scorpio is kicking themselves for showing up to this engagement in the first place. Strangers so frequently disappoint them, and they’re convinced this too will be a major waste of their time, until they spy Pisces hiding shyly in a corner. They instantly identify a challenge, a nut worth cracking. It’s only further down the road that each is able to justify the intense initial attraction they experienced on that first day. 

GEMINI & CANCER

When Gemini first spots Cancer, they can’t help feeling the urge to go embrace them. Like that is the shoulder they’ve been meant to cry on all along. They see a little bit of a protector mixed with some golden retriever, and Gemini can’t help wanting to be the one that someone so put together on the outside unloads to at the end of a long day. Meanwhile Cancer sees in Gemini’s haphazard , “doesn’t have time to eat breakfast”, always approaching a deadline exterior someone who unapologetically wears their heart on their sleeve. Cancer longs to be able to vent, to let the side down, to go out in public with hair that’s not perfectly coiffed, and they think to themselves, maybe Gemini is the person who could teach me how. 

AQUARIUS & TAURUS

Aquarius has a bad track record with partners who have been selfish and self-centered, so when they first step into the warmth of Taurus’ hospitality, they are completely swept off their feet. The attention to detail, forethought, and effort that goes into making sure other people are comfortable is undeniable, and makes an immediate and lifelong impact on Aquarius. Meanwhile, Taurus is instantly attracted to Aquarius’ value system. There is nothing flashy or attention grabbing about them. They live a life of service to others, friends, family, and community, and are never trying to steal the spotlight for themselves. Taurus can’t help but wanting to spoil someone so pure they could never go rotten. Someone who wouldn’t take advantage of Taurus’ giving nature. At first sight, they know Aquarius could help them do the most good with the resources they have at hand. 

SAGITTARIUS & CAPRICORN

Sagittarius is drawn to Capricorn’s intense commitment and dedication to whatever they set their mind to. They way they will grind away at the same problem no matter how difficult or uncomfortable the endeavor may be. The contrast to Sagittarius’ ‘eternal beginner’ mindset is obvious. They see in Capricorn everything they could have been if they hadn’t given up so easily, and there is something incredibly sexy about it. Meanwhile Capricorn craves Sagittarius’ unrehearsed confidence, something that borders on cockiness. The way they feel comfortable trying anything at least once, not worried at all about how stupid they may look in a failed attempt. Capricorn longs for that same care-free approach to life, to lift the enormous mantle of self-imposed pressure and focus on something as simple as the sunset. They know Sagittarius would be the one they want by their side for such a view.
