The story of him and her....

When HIM and HER come together in a love affair, their union is nothing if not intense, whether that's in a positive or a negative way. They are opposites in the Zodiac, giving them a special, complex connection. They can combine to make a whole, each partner's strengths balancing the other's weaknesses. Their sexual attraction is likely to be off the charts! HIM and HER have tons in common, but because their personalities are so powerful, they often swing between passionate love and passionate disagreement!


HIM and HER both have deep desires, HIM for possessions and HER for power. They're both concerned with wealth and resources, and they're both intensely passionate about all sorts of things. HIM is a bit more self-focused than HER, who is more concerned with their lover and immediate family. Both of them have a great, deep-rooted need for security in a relationship, but with slightly different focuses. While HIM prizes honesty and forthrightness and abhors infidelity, HER loves to be mysterious. HER need for security is more about the need to be constantly reassured that their emotional connection with their loved one is strong. The good thing is, HIM needs this reassurance too -- and is also willing to provide it for his lover.


HIM is ruled by Love and Money and HER is ruled by Passion Power. This combination is very intense, thanks to Power's influence, but it's an excellent balance of masculine and feminine energy. HER and HIM together form the basis of all love relationships -- love and passion. Love and Passion go well together; Love is about the beauty of romance, and Passion is about the passion of romance. HER is smoldering and intense (and intensely sexual), and HIM, a sensual and tireless lover, is attracted to this intensity. In turn, HER enjoys the devotion inherent in Love-ruled HIM.

HIM is Earth and HER is Water. HER tends to be very deep -- like an ocean, too much upset will cause a tidal wave! When HER feels crossed by a lover, watch out for that tail, which can whip out and sting their lover without warning! It's a good thing that these two are so strongly loyal to each other.

But while HIM is open, with everything laid bare on the surface, HER is more secretive and inscrutable. They can both teach one another about their opposite views of life (direct versus complex). Another factor adding a tantalizing dimension to this union is their mutual tendency toward jealousy. HIM loves it when HER displays their jealous -- it means HIM is adored and appreciated!


HIM and HER are both Fixed Signs. This means they're both pretty stubborn and resolute once their minds are made up. Let's hope their minds agree -- if not, they're prone to fights the likes of which neither experiences with any others. HIM seems to prevail as the dominant partner, but that's not always the case. HER can "win" through more devious means, such as employing emotional manipulation to get what HER want. These partners must learn to discuss their views and needs openly and to reach a compromise if they want their union to be lasting and happy.


This largely depends on HER's ability to learn to trust HIM. The relationship will only fail if the two partners truly cannot overcome their opinionated, fixed stances.


What's the best aspect of the HIM-HER relationship? Their powerful connection that can shine when obstacles to intimacy are cleared away.

When HER realizes that HIM is there for the long term and won't create the misery that some HER attract to their lives, this relationship can blossom.
