Who You’re Most Likely To Hookup With, Date, Or Marry, Based On Your Zodiac

Aries

Hookup: Gemini

Aries loves to keep things interesting, so naturally, they gravitate towards a Gemini. Geminis know how to playfully push Aries’ buttons, build up the tension, and are usually pretty down for a spontaneous hookup whenever the moment strikes. Of course, both signs tend to get bored quickly, so Aries knows if they decide to switch things up, Gemini won’t be too annoyed—they’ll move on to new possibilities.

Date: Sagittarius

When dating, Aries craves excitement, and they refuse to be held back. Sagittarius understands the fiery Aries spirit and won’t try to limit their independence, as Sags also protect theirs. Sagittarius will push Aries to see the world differently, and Aries will keep Sagittarius on their toes, making for a passionate connection. This pairing may even discuss marriage and a long-term future if they are both healthy communicators. However, these two may serve more as mentors to each other rather than life-long companions. 

Marry: Libra

For marriage, Aries craves excitement, but they also need a partner who can balance them out. Libra is the yin to Aries’ yang and strikes the perfect harmony between stimulating their spontaneous nature and pushing them to be more considerate and show up for their partners. Libra still respects Aries’s independence but won’t allow them to neglect their partnership. Aries sees qualities in Libra that they want to emulate in themselves, and knowing Libra will proudly stand by their side makes them marriage material. 

Taurus

Hookup: Virgo

If Taurus is going to hook up, then there needs to be clear expectations set—and no one else gets that quite like their fellow earth sign Virgo. Taurus is down for a hookup with someone who can read the room and know when to call it quits, and Virgos are far more likely to have a plan and respect a Taurus’ routine than send a “u up?” text at 3 a.m. 

Date: Capricorn

Taurus and Capricorn both have that grounded approach that is deeply appreciated, though they may have slightly different ways of implementing it. Taurus is prone to creating a grounded space in their home and a routine that works for them, whereas Capricorn will work diligently to provide security to make those things a reality. In some ways, they can make a structured marriage possible, but unless these signs have some water or fire placements in their chart, it may be more of a temporary connection—one where they can push for what they want and deserve in future relationships. 

Marry: Scorpio

Taurus is down-to-earth, and Scorpio is deeply passionate—and they can’t get enough of each other. Both have a penchant for leaning into the sensual, but their connection forges something deeper than a hookup. Taurus isn’t afraid of Scorpio’s depth, and Scorpio is unfazed by Taurus’ stubborn streak. If they are willing to put in the work, they may coax each other out of their fixed natures to form an unbeatable partnership and long-term future.

Gemini

Hookup: Aries

Gemini loves to explore possibilities and is a sucker for a confident flirt: cue Aries. Aries is unafraid of beating around the bush, and while Gemini may try to tease things out longer for fun, Aries makes an exciting and spontaneous hook-up when they need it most. Over time, Gemini may get bored if Aries can’t stimulate their brain enough, though, meaning most of this connection may be more carnal than anything else. 

Date: Aquarius

Gemini and Aquarius are big on a relationship’s mental connection and friendship, meaning they likely ran in the same friend groups before deciding to date. Aquarius doesn’t harsh on Gemini’s desire to explore possibilities; Gemini will give Aquarius the space they need. However, these two may get caught up in too much FOMO to start looking at wedding venues—though they’ll probably try to stay friends if there isn’t some massive betrayal involved. 

Marry: Sagittarius

Gemini and Sagittarius both get a bad rep for not wanting to settle down, but as it turns out, they need the right circumstances. Neither wants to be tied down or miss out, making this potential partnership exactly what the other needs. Even if they don’t always see eye to eye, these two are more likely to be more curious than judgemental, opening up to compromise. Gemini won’t try to change Sag, and vice versa, meaning this could be the love of their life.

Cancer

Hookup: Scorpio

Truthfully, Cancer may not always lean into hookups, as they know they may get their feelings involved. Naturally, the allure of fellow water sign Scorpio is one even you can’t resist, no matter how much you swear you won’t do casual. Scorpio has that energy that makes you think, “I can make them fall in love with me!” and go through with some couple-night stands, hoping to win them over. Scorpio may seem all in, but when they decide they are done, they will vanish—which is the only way you’ll get past them anyway, so it works out. 

Date: Taurus

You and Taurus share Moon-ruled energy, and in terms of stability, Taurus can make you feel right at home. You’re nurturing, and Taurus is practical. However, Taurus is also stubborn and isn’t one to make too many compromises—while you may be willing to give a little too much of yourself to keep things going. Usually, this ends because you want different things but don’t regret the experience. 

Marry: Capricorn

You find the same security-minded mentality you loved from Taurus in Capricorn, but you both have a more traditional nature about you and find that deeply attractive. Capricorn will provide stability for your emotions, while you will give them a safe space to let down their guard. You can trust them to help build the life you want, and you know they’ll go the distance with you—or at least give it all they have.

Leo

Hookup: Aquarius

When hooking up, you’ll likely want what you can’t have—and an Aquarius fits that to a tee. While you are deeply attracted to Aquarius’s qualities, they can also serve as great hookups who will give you what you’re looking for and part ways pretty amicably. 

Date: Aries

You want someone willing to show you off, and Aries is more than willing. Aries exhibit the same fiery energy and are big about initiating things—they’ll likely pursue you and make you feel on top of the world. However, you may burn out in the long run due to boredom or different goals in life. Still, it’s fun while it lasts!

Marry: Libra

Your larger-than-life persona meets charming a sociable Libra, which feels like an ideal match. Libra may play things a little less dramatically, but it pulls you in—you both know how to work in a room in different ways. Ultimately, Libra is determined to be a great partner and won’t hesitate to let you know how proud they are of you, and your generous warmth lets Libra feel secure and confident. Plus, let’s be honest, it will be one hell of an elegant wedding between the two of you!

Virgo

Hookup: Taurus

You want to get out of your head when you’re hooking up, but that doesn’t mean you want total unpredictability in the process. Taurus knows how to balance a mind-blowing sensual experience with consistency, which is what you need when looking for a good time, not a long time. 

Date: Capricorn

Capricorn is the more practical companion for you when it comes to dating—they work hard and tend to know what they want, keeping things straightforward. You both may appear more reserved, but you let your guard down around each other and ultimately push the other to be the better version of yourself. 

Marry: Pisces

Pisces is your polar opposite, yet you can’t get enough of them. While they may approach things wildly differently than you would, you find that part of the fun. Pisces tends to find ways to work beneath your reserved exterior and get you to embrace your feelings on a whole new level, and you help give them some structure to help make their wildest dreams come true. Something about the push and pull makes you pretty balanced partners. 

Libra

Hookup: Aquarius

You aren’t afraid to mix things up and use hookups for a more explorative side of yourself, which is why Aquarius is your go-to. Aquarius isn’t one to judge you for wanting to try new things and may even introduce you to new ideas, which can be perfect for some short-term fun without the strings. 

Date: Leo

Leo is captivating and knows how to grab your attention—making them a person you want as your partner right off the bat. Leo isn’t afraid to show you off or brag to the world about how lucky they are to have you, and you enjoy having that level of attention most of the time. The only potential pitfall is if Leo leans more into their ego and focuses too much on superficial images, which can make the relationship feel more like a performance. This partnership may go the distance, but there has to be some balance.

Marry: Aries

Truthfully, you’re into the rush of it all—Aries is big about sweeping you off your feet, and you’re here for every second of it. At times, their confidence may be overwhelming, but you can appreciate someone who knows what they want and isn’t afraid to go after it, something you long to do yourself. Aries will ensure you aren’t bored and you bring balance to their life, which seems to suit you both well when looking for a spouse. 

Scorpio

Hookup: Pisces

Pisces may have a lot of emotions, but they are also very adaptable and open-minded, which can be fun for you in the short term. You know that Pisces will either ghost you or fall deeply in love, and that can be exhilarating enough to try things out. Ultimately, you enjoy that Pisces is sensual enough to make things interesting, even if you aren’t looking to make things official.

Date: Capricorn

You enjoy unraveling someone’s stone-cold exterior, and Capricorn entices you in this way. You like Capricorn’s reliability for you to open up, and the idea that you can reach parts of them that no one else can tend to make a strong bond between you. However, Capricorns may not always have their priorities in the same place as you, which can make it difficult to take things to the next level.

Marry: Taurus

Like Caps, Taurus gives you a reliable foundation to be yourself, and aren’t one to put all their cards on the table in the first meeting. However, Taurus also matches you on a sensual level, which you can’t help but fall for. While you may still have to work to get your and Taurus’s priorities on the same page, it’s usually a little easier to do when you feel at ease with each other—they feel like your no-nonsense best friend, and you feel excited about sharing your life with them.

Sagittarius

Hookup: Aries

When it comes to hookups (especially if you meet people traveling), you want to keep things spontaneous, and no one else gets this better than an Aries. Aries can get straight to the point, which you can appreciate when you’re trying to keep things fairly simple. You both have some fiery personalities, so things may not end super smoothly if one of you is in it more than the other, but you’ll undoubtedly have stories to tell.

Date: Aquarius

When you choose a partner, you need more than a physical connection; you need a mental one, too. Aquarius catches your interest with their unique traits that make you want to know them better, and they are charmed by your optimistic nature. You both can stimulate each other’s minds in ways few others can, and you value your autonomy to a high degree. However, this often means that you’re likely so focused on retaining your independence that settling down never fully becomes part of the equation. 

Marry: Gemini

If there is one thing Gemini understands, it’s that the world is full of possibilities—so when you have your hearts set on each other, it’s no small thing. Gemini is more fixated on details while you are the big-picture thinker, but together, you can be a dream team in bringing your visions to life. Gemini isn’t interested in holding you back, which often gives you the peace you need to feel confident in taking on the world together.

Capricorn

Hookup: Virgo

You may not always be one for hookups, but when you do wade into that territory, you need someone on board with a plan to make it happen. Virgo isn’t put off by the idea of scheduling time to bang things out, and they can appreciate you not wanting to waste their time. Plus, Virgos strive for perfection, so…you know you’ll be satisfied. 

Date: Taurus

Taurus has a grounded mindset that you’re all in for, and they appreciate your work ethic. Taurus thrives in creating a comfortable space, and they know when to take a break—something you could use more of. However, you may feel that Taurus doesn’t have the same goals in mind for the future, making this partnership less long-lasting than you would prefer. 

Marry: Cancer

Like Taurus, Cancer is all about creating a comfortable and inviting space. Cancer may be more emotional, but it helps you get in touch with your feelings in unexpected ways. Cancer appreciates your stability and lets you know it, and once you get things in order, both of your desires for long-term partnerships often lead you down the aisle. 

Aquarius

Hookup: Leo

Leos may have a flair for the dramatic, which may not be your favorite thing in a partner—but it can be fun for an exciting tryst now and again. You like the passion that these signs bring to the table, and you like to be the person who shows them new things they won’t forget. Plus, Leos can be very generous when they want to be, so do what you will with that.

Date: Gemini

You want to have interesting conversations with the people you date, and no one will keep you on your toes more than a Gemini. You know that they can respect your freedom, though they want your attention regularly, which can trip you down the road if you can’t find a compromise. However, you thoroughly enjoy the time you spend with these signs who know how to light up your mind as much as your heart. 

Marry: Sagittarius

If you’re going to commit for arguably the rest of your life, you need someone as independent and curious as you—making Sagittarius hard to beat. Sag isn’t intimidated by your need for space and pushes you to dream bigger, inspiring you to keep growing and evolving without fear long after you’ve said, “I do.” 

Pisces

Hookup: Scorpio

You may try to resist, but you can’t help but find Scorpios extremely hot (and for good reason!). Scorpio knows how to pull you in and you can’t get enough of them, especially if you want to have fun. You may risk falling head over heels for them, but deep down, you know they probably won’t let you get close enough to take things further—but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a good time for a bit. 

Date: Cancer

You and Cancer have a little of that hopeless romantic in you, which often brings you together when you’re dating. Cancer isn’t intimidated by your big emotions—it’s part of the charm you each find with the other. However, Cancer may prefer to keep things on the traditional side, whereas you want more room to explore, which can keep things firmly in dating territory.

Marry: Virgo

You know you can be a bit scattered at times, so it’s no shock you’re drawn to more grounded types to balance you out—and none seem to get you more than Virgo. Virgo may be practical, but they are also adaptable, making things feel less rigid and more malleable for the future. Virgo will structure as you pursue your dreams, and you’re drawn to their wit and stability—you can see them being the one you come home to every day.
