Lucky for Leos and Scorpios...

Modern dating is an absolute minefield, with a terrifying new phenomenon around every corner.

Are you being ghosted? Could you be a victim of kittenfishing? Or is the object of your affection actually just zombieing you? The list goes on, and combined with the endless string of dating sites to navigate, it’s enough to put anyone off the dating game - particularly during Mercury in retrograde.

In these times of dating chaos, many of us have turned to astrology for guidance - particularly millennials, who have prompted a spike in star sign compatibility inquiries.

According to recent data, a whopping 60% of British daters ask about star signs when chatting to someone online. And 30% even look up their star sign compatibility ahead of a first date

Yes, more than ever, people want to know if their signs are compatible from the get-go. Better to know now than to find out the hard way that you’re never going to gel with a Scorpio.

Luckily for everyone, upscale dating website Seeking has created a definitive list of the most compatible star signs, based on match data.
