Star sign compatibility revealed: Science explains your perfect horoscope love match
FINDING the one can be tricky – but could horoscopes hold the secret to love?
This is the premise of a new YouTube show which uses star signs to help singletons find their perfect match.
Cosmic Coupling
Cosmic Coupling is a speed dating show made by Cosmic Fusion on YouTube.
It’s a dating show like no other which matches people based on their zodiac sign.
In each episode, a player is matched with five potentially compatible contestants.
The player then puts their astrological compatibility to the test using a series of games to complete a speed dating experiment.
Fun & games
In episode one, viewers meet 23-year-old Saskia who is a Cancerian looking for love.
The comedic narrator describes her as: “The definition of Yin-Yang.
“With a mix of Cancer’s nurturing vibe mixed with the metal snake’s savvy and ruthless edge.”
When asked what she’s looking for, Saskia had no preference for a particular star sign: “To be honest I’ve dated many star signs so there’s not something I go for in particular.
“Attraction for me is based on personality”, she declared.
Open-minded Saskia was then cleverly matched with five potential love interests that had been chosen using Chinese and Western zodiac data.
Fitting with the Chinese elements, each game was centred around fire, water, air, earth, metal, and wood.
Saskia’s first date tested adaptability and passion for the element of wood.
Her five potential love matches were tasked with drawing a picture of themselves, alongside her riding a horse into the sunset, to illustrate if they possessed the qualities of wood in Chinese astrology.
Saskia decided to eliminate a candidate named Lemar based on his drawing in this round, despite the Cosmic Fusion app predicting a 92% compatibility match for the pair.
Each round of games continued to follow each Chinese element until finally they landed on the metal element, which tested the intentions and confidence of the final two potential matches.
In this final round, Saskia was allowed to phone a friend who would advise her on who would be the better match after a FaceTime conversation with the last two finalists.
Taking her friend’s advice, Saskia chose Luis, a 27-year-old Sagittarius, who she only discovered in the end was ranked as just a 50% match.
How much influence do our star signs have on our compatibility chances?
The co-founders of Cosmic Fusion strongly believe that our zodiac signs not only shape our character, but our relationships too.
As well as launching the new game show, Cosmic Coupling, Cosmic Fusion also operates an astrology app which has provided them with new astrological insights into compatibility.
Co-founder Michelle Bell said: “At Cosmic Fusion, with our system of over 1,000 different personality signs, we see astrology as a great way to understand people’s personalities and how they connect with others.
“Through our app and user base, we’ve found that people really resonate with their zodiac signs, which shows just how much these traits shape their relationships.”
Does zodiac pairing work?
Despite Saskia choosing Luis over someone with a higher compatibility percentage, it doesn’t necessarily mean to say that zodiac pairing doesn’t work.
Luis and Saskia still had a 50% chance of being a compatible match and as they didn’t go on another date, it’s clear the pair decided not to explore their chances.
When it comes to love and zodiac compatibility, astrologers look at a number of points in your chart.
Generally speaking, it can be as simple as comparing astrological elements such as fire, earth, air, and water, and seeing which element compliments the traits of your star sign.
Although the stars might align for two people, we have to remember it doesn’t always guarantee that they’ll be attracted to each other.
Meanwhile, zodiac matching has become such a thing that dating app Bumble has added a feature for users to include their sign in their profiles.
And other successful dating apps like NUiT have been designed to centre around astrology alone.
How do you work out the compatibility match for your star sign?
The makers of the Cosmic Fusion use their app to generate over 1,000,000 compatibility matches using Western and Chinese astrology.
The co-founder describes how zodiac compatibility is not a one size fits all matchmaking process.
She explains: “There isn’t just one perfect match for each star sign —there’s a whole spectrum from 0-100% for everyone.
“That’s why it’s not as simple as saying, “Aries matches best with Libra” or “Leo and Sagittarius are a great pair.”
“It’s not about strict rules or fixed outcomes — astrology simply helps us understand different character dynamics, making it a fun and insightful way to explore compatibility.”
“Instead, our app combines your sun sign, Chinese element, and Chinese zodiac animal to create a unique personality profile.
“From there, you can test your compatibility percentage with anyone, giving you a deeper understanding of how well you might connect with different people.
“On the show, we bring this to life by matching people based on these deeper layers of astrology.”

Pregnant Mrs Hinch reveals ‘lifesaver’ £6 Boots buy every mum needs for their hospital bag & even Kylie Jenner loves it
MRS Hinch has given fans a close-up look inside her hospital bag as she prepares to give birth this month.
The mum-of-two, who is pregnant with her third child and is due to expand her family in just days time, has revealed the must-haves all mums need, including a £6 Boots buy even Kylie Jenner loves.
The blonde beauty took to her Instagram stories to share the hospital buys she can’t live without – so parents-to-be will need to listen up.
Revealing all to her 4.8 million loyal followers, the cleaning fanatic explained: “It is hospital bag time guys, I need to pack my hospital bag.
“Third baby down, I don’t pack half as much as I did with Ron and Len, it gets less and less each time I swear.”
The influencer, 34, not only packed a suitcase for herself, but also filled a gorgeous cream bag from a small business called Something A Bit Different with buys for her third child.
The star, whose real name is Sophie Hinchliffe, then shared a list of everything she had packed, as she wrote: “And we are packed. This is my list I have in my notes for those asking me to share.”
Not only has Mrs Hinch packed two blankets, muslins, five baby grows, five vets, mittens, hats and socks, as well as a large variety of other items for her baby, but she’s also packed herself a suitcase.
Alongside her maternity notes, two pairs of pyjamas and nursing bras, Mrs Hinch has also got herself sanity pads, disposable knickers and a ‘lifesaver’ nipple cream.
Sophie described the Lansinoh HPA Lanolin Nipple Cream as a hospital bag ‘fave’ that is a must-have for mums.
The nipple cream is just £6.59 from Boots and is loved by many.
It helps to soothe and protect sore, cracked nipples and dry skin.
Composed of an ultra-purified grade of lanolin, this cream is 100% natural and hypoallergenic, so there’s no need to remove it before breastfeeding.
When applied on sore, cracked nipples, it will provide them with a perfect moist wound-healing environment, ensuring cracked tissue is re-hydrated and will heal without the formation of a scab or crust.
Not only can it be used for sore nipples, but it also comforts sensitive skin, nappy rash, itchy stretch marks, burns, abrasions and can even be applied as a naturally moisturising lip balm.
Mums rave
The Lansinoh nipple cream is not just a favourite of Mrs Hinch, but many other mums too, as it has amassed an average rating of 4.9 out of five, with almost 200 five star glowing reviews on the Boots website.
Mums not only hailed it as ‘magic’ but even called it a ‘lifesaver’.
This cream works like magic for your sore nipples. One of my best purchases for my hospital bag
Boots shopper
One person said: “I’ve been breastfeeding for a week and this little cream here is a life saver. Not only can it be used as a barrier cream to make the latch on feeding feel less tender, it’s so moisturising, protects nipples from rubbing and is generally a fabulous product. Going to have to get more!!”
Another added: “This cream works like magic for your sore nipples. One of my best purchases for my hospital bag.”
A third commented: “I haven’t tried any other nipple cream as this was what was recommended to me but my midwife. It’s amazing, not just for nipples but skin and lips – my husband even uses it!!”
Pregnancy Myths explained
There are a lot of strange myths around pregnancy - and some of them may surprise you...
- Is it okay to eat prawns when you’re pregnant?
- Can you have sex during a pregnancy?
- Can you get a tattoo while you’re pregnant
- Is it safe to take paracetamol when you’re pregnant?
- Can you eat mozzarella when you’re pregnant?
Whilst someone else described it as ‘essential for new breastfeeding mums’ and beamed: “This stuff is a godsend – it doesn’t necessarily ‘heal’ cracked/bleeding nipples, but it definitely does soothe them. Will definitely be buying again when I run out.”
And it’s not just Boots shoppers and Mrs Hinch loving the Lansinoh cream – in fact, reality TV star Kylie Jenner, 27, is also a fan.
Nipple cream for your lips, it’s like the best secret
Kylie Jenner
In a video she posted to Instagram and TikTok last year, the mum-of-two shared that she uses the Lansinoh Lanolin Nipple Cream to give her lips moisture and shine.
Facing the camera, Kylie went through her routine, brushing her teeth, washing her face, and moisturising her skin.
She then applied the cream to her lips and told the camera: “Nipple cream for your lips, it’s like the best secret.”
