47 in a relationship

They're not directly connected. Pairs like this are often drawn to each other precisely because of their differences.

The Four and the Seven are a common pair, one that looks for a balance between many possibilities and emotional depth. Each has a joy to share: the joy of the heart and the joy of the mind. Each sees something extraordinary in the other. That makes the Four feel special, and the Seven feel like the world belongs to them.

The Seven's optimism keeps the Four from sinking into sadness. What's more, the Seven doesn't fall for the Four's "pull close and push away." The Four values such a partner, even while longing for the same emotional intensity.

• Plenty of creativity, experiences, and joy.
• The Seven pulls the Four out of sadness, and shared plans keep the Four's moods steadier.
• The Four teaches the Seven to stay with deeper feelings.

• The Seven won't tolerate negative emotions and escapes into other plans.
• The Four wants to talk about hard things; the Seven sees it as a waste of time.
• The Four finds the Seven shallow; the Seven finds the Four suffocating.

At work, their differences paradoxically help. The Seven sees the glass half full, the Four half empty, and together they find unexpected paths. The Seven won't be backed into a corner, and the Four pays attention to form and won't let plans spin out of control.
