Which Zodiac Pairings Are Best for Thriving Business Partnerships?
In the professional world, a partnership can be the key to success, but compatibility extends beyond shared goals—it's about complementary strengths and a shared approach to work.
Astrology suggests that certain zodiac pairings are naturally more effective in business, as their combined energies create a well-rounded and powerful team.
Earth and Water Signs:
This is one of the most effective combinations for a business partnership. The grounded, practical nature of Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) provides the stability, organization, and long-term vision needed to build a successful enterprise. The intuitive, empathetic nature of Water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) adds the emotional intelligence, creativity, and deep understanding of human needs.
For example, a partnership between a
Taurus
and a
Cancer
could be incredibly successful: Taurus provides the solid foundation and financial foresight, while Cancer brings nurturing care for the team and a knack for creating a popular product or service.
Air and Fire Signs:
This is a dynamic duo built on inspiration and action. Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) bring the ideas, communication skills, and strategic thinking needed to innovate and market a business. Fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) provide the drive, passion, and leadership required to bring those ideas to life. A partnership between a
Gemini
and an
Aries
would be highly productive: Gemini generates the brilliant new concepts, and Aries has the courage and energy to immediately put them into action.

Earth and Fire Signs:
While this combination can present some friction, it can also lead to a highly effective partnership. The earth sign's practicality and patience can ground the fire sign's impulsiveness, while the fire sign's ambition and drive can motivate the earth sign to take more risks. For example, a
Capricorn
and a
Leo
partnership could be a powerhouse: Capricorn provides the discipline and structure, while Leo brings the charisma and vision to lead the company to greatness.
Ultimately, the best business pairings are those that combine different skill sets and perspectives, allowing each partner to play to their unique strengths while balancing their weaknesses.

Coconut prices near100 ahead of Ganesh Chaturthi as prodn falls
Panaji: The prices of coconuts, a staple in the Goan diet, have seen a major spike leading to concerns among locals ahead of the Ganesh Chaturthi . A small-sized coconut which was priced at Rs 20 to Rs 25, is now selling at Rs 45, while a medium-sized nut which was selling at Rs 35 earlier is now available for Rs 60. In some pockets, vendors even quote Rs 90 for a large-sized coconut. Agriculture experts said that premature plucking of tender coconuts is affecting the yield. Monkeys and other animals targeting horticultural produce and rising cost of fertilisers are some of the reasons blamed for the rising coconut prices. Agriculture director Sandeep Fol Dessai said that the supply of coconuts is already down during the monsoon season as it is difficult to harvest. The other factors are only adding to the situation this season. 'Also, many farmers are migrating to urban areas for better opportunities, leaving their fields unattended. This is an opportunity for the monkeys to come and destroy the crops,' Foldessai said. Foldessai said that coconut prices will stabilise after harvesting resumes as the monsoon recedes. Vendors said that rise in labour and transportation costs are also fuelling the spike. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Nitin Manjrekar, a grocery store owner at the city market, said, 'It is all about the weight of the coconuts. A jumbo coconut is sold for Rs 90.' Even though the Goa State Horticulture Corporation Ltd is set to import one lakh coconuts from Karnataka and promises to make them available at a subsidised price of Rs 44 a piece to bring relief to the consumers during Ganesh Chaturthi, the corporation's procurement is still expected to fall far below the demand. Another vendor said, 'Many coconuts are also being imported from Karnataka, and because of low supply of coconuts, the prices are so high. Everyone is obsessed with eating tender coconuts. No one knows when the prices are going to come down.' Former agriculture director Nevil Alphonso said the productivity of the coconuts is less this season. 'The Benaulim coconut tree, a variety native to South Goa, has the potential to yield 70 – 80 coconuts per tree. The organic and chemical fertilisers are getting expensive, which is also a major factor for low coconut produce,' he said. Alphonso said that rise in the labour charges of coconut pluckers is also driving up the cost. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

Lisa Cook educational background and career journey: How this philosophy scholar became a US Federal Reserve governor
From Oxford to the US FED: Lisa Cook's academic journey and professional milestones. (Getty Images) Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook has come under scrutiny following allegations of mortgage fraud made by a US housing official. On August 20, 2025, US President Donald Trump called for her immediate resignation via his social media platform, Truth Social . The accusations, which have not been confirmed, concern mortgage agreements on two properties—one in Michigan and another in Georgia. Cook, who is serving a term on the US Federal Reserve Board of Governors until 2038, became the first Black woman to hold the position when she took office on May 23, 2022. Her academic and professional journey spans prestigious institutions, policy roles, and contributions to economic research. Early education and academic foundations Born in 1964, Lisa DeNell Cook grew up in Milledgeville, Georgia. She is the daughter of Payton B. Cook, a Baptist hospital chaplain, and Mary Murray Cook, a nursing professor at Georgia College. As a child, she was involved in school desegregation efforts in Georgia and sustained physical injuries during that process. She is also a cousin of chemist Percy Julian. Cook earned a BA in Physics and Philosophy, magna cum laude, from Spelman College in 1986 and was named a Harry S. Truman Scholar. She became Spelman's first Marshall Scholar and went on to read Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) at St Hilda's College, Oxford, completing her second BA in 1988. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo She also took postgraduate courses in philosophy at Cheikh Anta Diop University in Senegal. Shift to economics and doctoral research Cook shifted her focus to economics after a Mount Kilimanjaro hiking trip with an economist. She later earned a PhD in Economics from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1997. Her dissertation, supervised by Barry Eichengreen and David Romer, examined the underdevelopment of the banking system in czarist and post-Soviet Russia. Cook began her academic career as a visiting assistant professor at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government and Harvard Business School from 1997 to 2002. She also served as deputy director of Africa Research at Harvard's Center for International Development. Professional roles and policy contributions Between 2000 and 2001, Cook worked as a senior adviser on finance and development at the US Treasury Department under a Council on Foreign Relations fellowship. From 2002 to 2005, she was a National Fellow and Research Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution. Cook joined Michigan State University in 2005, became a tenured associate professor in 2013, and has published research on macroeconomics, African-American history, and innovation economics. Her work includes a study linking racial violence to declines in patent activity and the development of a database on lynching in the US. She served on the Obama administration's Council of Economic Advisers from August 2011 to August 2012 and has advised the governments of Nigeria and Rwanda on economic matters. She has also served on the Executive Committee of the American Economic Association and directed its Summer Program for underrepresented students since 2016. Nomination and confirmation to the Federal Reserve President Joe Biden nominated Cook to the US Federal Reserve Board of Governors on January 14, 2022. Following a series of procedural delays and partisan votes, she was confirmed by the Senate on May 10, 2022, with Vice President Kamala Harris casting the tie-breaking vote. In May 2023, Biden re-nominated her for a full 14-year term. The Senate confirmed her appointment on September 6, 2023, by a 51–47 vote. TOI Education is on WhatsApp now. Follow us here .
