We're three weeks in, and our obsession with Love Island hasn't diminished. So much so, that we've taken to the stars to get to know our islanders just that little bit more. Just a few of our guilty - or not so guilty - pleasures in life: star signs and Love Island – enjoy!
Star Signs: How Compatible Are This Years' Love Island Cast?
Aries – Shaughna Phillips
**True to their sign?**Shaughna is your fun-loving Aries, through and through. She's headstrong, knows what she wants (Callum), and isn't afraid to fight for it – GET BACK Rebecca! Although she can seem a little controlling at times, she's the protagonist of her own story. She's stronger than you think, and you'll never see her cry, but she is partial to a momentary 'Tony Blair.' After all, she is a fire sign. Aries and Taurus compatibilityAries are known to be extroverted, more so than the mellow Taurus. Notice how Callum isn't a fan of voicing his feelings or opinions, especially when it came to the Connor is-he/isn't-he sensitive debate. While Callum fancies himself as the peacekeeper, Shaughna sees him as a 'flake.' She needs a man who's not afraid to speak up from time to time, but has Callum got it in him?On the other hand, being the calm-natured Taurus man Callum is, he'll ground Shaughna when she needs it most. He may appear to be laidback, but he's an intuitive earth sign, and understands she needs reassurance without being told. Ultimately, they're a well-suited match, as their playful nature carries them through - the sign of a great friendship.
Taurus – Callum Jones
**True to their sign?**Callum is as Taurus as they come. He's practical, down-to-earth and a real 'man's man', translation: not a romantic – sorry Shaughna. Taureans aren't typically risk-takers so they'll take their sweet time deciding if she's the one, as Callum is still doing. However, once he's decided he'll make his love known, although it won't be through flowery language - as he's shared multiple times, he's not great with words.Taurus and Aries compatibility Callum is a non-confrontational being. If Shaughna were to ignite her fiery side, Callum would neither fuel nor extinguish the fire. Callum would rather walk away than get caught up in something that would disturb the peace in the villa. Although he quietly respects her intelligence, if she becomes boisterous or cracks the whip, Callum won't put up with it. He's the bull, she's a ram, let's hope they don't butt horns…Having said that, he's probably one of the least complex boys in the vila, perfect for an Aries that doesn't respond well to male egos. His love is honest and simple, which means he'll have a hard job of faking it.
Cancer – Siânnise Fudge
**True to their sign?**Siânnise is an extremely expressive crab, both in her facial expressions and in her feelings, she's not one for shying away or masking her emotions. That's why she'll openly ask if you're on the same wavelength as her (Kids? Marriage? Commuting from Scotland?) - her home is her heart and she intends to create one that's strong and safe. It's also why her emotions are so up and down constantly. Being a water sign she's sensitive and often projects her feelings onto a lot of people, hence being wary of Rebecca, and crying on Luke T's shoulder. Cancer and Pisces compatibilitySiânnise and Nas's relationship is a friendship only, and trust us when we say that's a good thing. Typically, if you're both water signs there can be a lot of overflowing emotions, which doesn't make for the best romantic relationship. With Siânnise's ever changing moods, Nas would drown in her unsettled waters. Although he would try his best to stay afloat, and use his caring nature to accept her the way she is, he'd never truly be happy. A friendship however - this works.
Pisces – Nas Majeed
**True to their sign?**Interestingly, Nas is actually on the cusp of Aquarius and Pisces, which makes total sense. We see more Pisces qualities in him, like supporting other islanders, being attentive and longing for that dream girl. However, he does possess slight Aquarian traits too, like his energy and self-confidence. Without a shadow of doubt he knows he's a catch. Pisces and Cancer compatibility Nas adapts well to any sign, after moulding himself first. His love is given freely, and that's why It's possible for him to love all twelve signs (bless), but at the cost of losing his true self. He's a romantic, so would easily sacrifice himself for love, as we saw in the first two weeks. Nas knew in his heart of hearts neither Siânnise or Jess were the right match, despite several attempts and pining after them, to the point where Siânnise lost her rag.
Sagittarius – Paige Turley
**True to their sign?**Paige is your good-time Sagittarius gal. She's confident and friendly – definitely one of the girls. But don't be fooled, she's a fire sign so she won't sugar coat things for you… She'll tell it to you straight. She can also be the jealous type, and has no time for con artists and phonies. But all the same, don't come on too strong, she's very independent and doesn't like to be tied down. A word to the wise Finn, play it cool, keep doing what you're doing. Sagittarius and Scorpio compatibilityFire and water signs tend to work well, although it's always a relationship filled with heated passion, for good and bad. It's simple really, fire boils water and water puts out fire. Let's take for example Paige's tantrum. Finley announced their relationship was 'alright' around the fire-pit, and we were as lost as you were, figuring out why Paige had lost her head… Lucky for Finley, he's one of the less sensitive water signs, and handled her rage calmly. He understood quickly that he doubted the integrity of their coupling, a big no-no for a Sagittarius woman.
Scorpio – Finley Tapp
**True to their sign?**Strapping young Finley is a Scorpio man in the making. He's calm, steady and wildly passionate, which explains his 'bodycount' of three – all girlfriends. Oh and did we mention, they're known to have almost hypnotic eyes, or certainly a lot of intensity behind them, enough to make any girl weak at the knees. And once he has you, he's actually rather possessive. Notice the bitter comments and eagle-eye over Paige when she's chosen to go on dates with other men. Scorpio and Sagittarius compatibilityDespite being a water sign, Scorpions are the least sensitive of the water signs, which explains the sting in their tails. It's possible that there is too much passion in this coupling, as scorpios are known to have an explosive temper, especially when they lose… So, could this be more about the game for Finn than he's leading on? It also doesn't help, that like a Sagittarius, the Scorpio will refuse to be dictated by the opposite sex. Could they be too alike? For the time being, they're both enjoying being tactile with each other, using their passions for love not war.
Aries – Rebecca Gormley
**True to their sign?**Rebecca is an Aries alright… and one that's not messing around. But what's the difference between Shaughna and Rebecca, we hear you ask? Vulnerability. Rebecca shows no signs of it, which automatically means she's a stronger Aries than Shaughna, which is both a blessing and a curse. Out of all twelve signs, the Aries woman is most independent, and can get along just fine without any masculine help - but ironically, she enjoys male company over female. She needs a man that's going to keep up with her, and we're not sure Luke T has got it in him...Aries and Gemini compatibilityIf Luke is OK with Rebecca wearing the pants, all will be well, but something tells us this isn't going to be the case, especially since he's already leaning towards Siânnise. However, a quality that will draw Rebecca to her Gemini partner is his ability to resist her impact, whether that's intentional or not. She'll love the challenge in enticing him with her charms, as he plays it cool.
Gemini – Luke Trotman
**True to their sign?**Geminis are typically known to have a split personality, something that will become more evident as we watch Luke's love triangle with Rebecca and Siânnise unfold. In general, there's an eagerness about Geminis, for Luke this lies in his quick wit and mischievous demeanour, eager to show off his comedic talents, being quick on his feet. He's playful, easy and fun. Gemini and Aries compatibilityBecause the Gemini's personality naturally fluctuates and Aries women are so sure of themselves, this doesn't seem like the best fit, if we're being honest. Granted it's only been a few days for Luke, but he's already showing signs of boredom with Rebecca, like repeating similar conversations. He needs excitement and to be entertained, and Rebecca isn't the girl to go out of her way to make this happen.
Taurus – Jess Gale
**True to their sign?**Like fellow Taurean Callum, Jess also plays the role of the peacemaker. She's tried to build a bridge between Rebecca and Siânnise twice now, and even sat in as the mediator, finishing with an icy (and awkward) group hug. That's because she's harmonious, straight and true, no surprising twists and turns, Luke will be happy to know. Taurus and Sagittarius compatibilityTypically, a Taurean woman responds well to a man she can see potential in, especially when dreaming of making a home. They're OK with the man being the provider, and handling the family finances for example, ideals that fit Luke's star sign down to a T. Sagittarius men are more than happy to play the role of the hero, but a word to the wise: he's a flirt.
Sagittarius – Luke Mabbott
**True to their sign?**Sagittarius men live by one rule and one rule only: it's my way or the highway. It's only been a couple of days, but we can already see hints of this mantra in Luke, as he swans about the vila. But one quality of a Sagittarius that won't work in Luke's favour, they're awful liars as deceit is unnatural to them. Maybe a happy ending for Jess after all? Sagittarius and Taurus compatibilityOn paper, these two are a match made in heaven, but there's one thing that Sagittarius men seek above all: intelligence. Luckily for Jess, twin sister Eve revealed she was an A* student at school, so it seems like Luke might stay put, although it's too early to tell.
Gemini – Leanne Amaning
**True to their sign?**Leanne is your typical Gemini. Take the dance challenge, for example. She strutted her stuff in front of the boys and you would've never guessed she's usually quite reserved. Now, compare that to when Mike is showering her in compliments. She becomes so shy she can't even look him in the eye, and more often than not, buries her face in a pillow and becomes a very timid version of herself… Translation: She's got the 'ick.' Gemini women can be very fickle. Most compatible with? Air signs like Leanne, are most compatible with fire signs: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius, and least compatible with Virgo and Pisces… And what do we predict Mike is, a virgo. Oh dear.
Unknown – Mike Boateng
**True to their sign?**If we'd have to guess, Mike is most like a Virgo: very attentive, gentle and dependable. Unlike other signs, once the Virgo has decided you're the right girl for him, his love won't fluctuate and will always provide warmth. Despite the fact that Leanne has wanted to slow things down in their relationship, Mike has been a true patient and understanding Virgo. Virgo and Gemini compatibilityVirgos can be cranky and have mood swings, as demonstrated by Mike when Shaughna admitted she thought he was a game player. On the other hand they can also be overly devoted and a little smothering. Here lies the problem. Gemini women find it hard to settle down, even long enough to take anything seriously. She's accepting to change, and sometimes actively seeks it – sorry Mike.
Scorpio – Sophie Piper
**True to their sign?**The least sensitive of the water signs, Sophie is a confident, proud and magnetic Scorpion. She's all glamour and dabbles in the art of seduction, just take a look back to her not-so-angelic dance challenge. With all this and more, men are caught under her spell, but she'll only be loyal to those she finds the strongest and ignore the weak-willed males… What does that say about (poor, sensitive, most definitely a water sign) former-love Conor? Most compatible with? Scorpio's are seen to be most compatible with Virgo and Capricorn signs. Interestingly, they also get along with their fellow water signs, Cancer and Pisces. They're least compatible with Leo and Aquarius, signs that are equally charming but too vain.
