Aquarius Compatibility - your Love Match Guide

Order your Compatibility Horoscope report.

Aquarius compatibility with other signs? Perhaps you are in a love relationship and you want to know what your prospects are for lifelong harmony. Comparison of your sun signs may give a significant clue, but is far from being the only consideration. Your sun sign is an indication of your ultimate goal or purpose in life, so if you consider it important that your lover shares that with you, or can at least support you, then compatibility between your sun signs will help. But what about your temperament? Ascendant and moon signs are much more important in assessing whether there is a good match between your temperaments than sun signs are. For you, lasting love and attraction may depend more on compatible temperament than it does on shared purpose. Your birth chart will indicate whether shared goals or compatible temperaments are more important to you.

These notes about the twelve possible combinations are an indication of the kinds of experiences which may arise for you if Aquarius is prominent in your horoscope. But do bear in mind that you and your lover will have planets in other signs, and these may indicate compatibility where possible causes of conflict are described here, or they may suggest tension where harmony is shown here. If you want a thorough astrological analysis of a relationship I offer a

Compatibility Horoscope report.

You can go direct to the order form here.

This report is compiled using your date, time (if known) and place of birth. It is much more comprehensive and accurate than a report that asks only for dates of birth as in that case the Ascendants and often the moon signs are unknown, making an analysis of temperaments impossible.

Alternatively I offer personal consultations - see Astrology Readings.

Aquarius Aries

This Sun sign combination is normally helpful for working towards a common purpose. Aquarius provides the air which Aries needs in order to burn. Air is also the interpreter of fire. Inspiration is fine, but it needs a medium through which its ideas can be channelled and air provides that, while earth is needed for practical realisation. What you may find is that you divert your partner's ideas into projects that bear no relation to what he or she had in mind. You may be very sure of your ideas, perhaps rightly so, but listen to those who can offer evidence that you are wrong.

If this is your Moon or Ascendant combination you may long for your partner to be as much a friend as a lover. For an Aries lover friendship is a minor consideration. Romance comes first, friendship may come later and you may need to patiently encourage it. Don't expect your lover to be more excited about attending an environmental campaign meeting than having an intimate dinner just with you! Your relationship may be a roller coaster ride emotionally. Learn to accept responsibility for your own emotional discomfort while sharing it rather than blame it on your lover, otherwise your relationship will not grow the roots needed for survival.

Aquarius Taurus

If you have this Sun sign combination you may find working together a challenge. Both of you are willing to persevere in your plans but your patience may be tried when your partner considers that some of your innovations will not work in practice. If you are sure of your ideas try to persuade your partner not to write them off immediately. Patient discussions may help to resolve most difficulties.

If this is your Moon or Ascendant combination you may find your Taurus lover's relaxed approach to the body, sensuality and human instincts fascination but disturbing. You tend to be more at home with your mind than with your body and may find it hard to deal with emotions and instincts calmly. Try to use your mind to observe your reactions rather than getting caught up into them. Both of you are inclined towards loyalty which will help see you through difficulties.

Aquarius Gemini

If you have this Sun sign combination you are likely to work well together. You partner will be concerned with researching the information needed for your work and formulating ideas for projects, while you may be able to surprise your partner with exciting innovations to those plans that could also make them more useful to society at large. You may have to do some research to find out whether or not those innovations are really practical.

If this is your Moon or Ascendant combination your relationship is likely to feature plenty of wit, chat, exchange of ideas, and if all that seems like fun to you, then you will have a good time. Both of you need freedom of movement and hate to be tied down, but you have a greater instinct towards loyalty than your Gemini lover has, which could provide a useful element of stability between you. Neither of you may be very good at supporting the other through difficult experiences unless other chart factors assist. Don't run away at signs of emotional complexity - facing it can deepen your love and your approach to the whole of life.

Aquarius Cancer

If you have this Sun sign combination it may be best if you work separately as your orientations are somewhat different. You may have ideals that stretch way beyond the immediate concerns of your work. Aquarius wants to make the world a better place, and to that end will form friendships with people who share that ideal. Your partner's concern is to feel at home with the project and all who work on it. Even customers may feel like family. You may be better at finding out what people really want so that a practical solution can be found.

If this is your Moon or Ascendant combination you may find what you perceive to be your Cancer lover's emotional demands difficult to handle. You tend to be more at home with your mind than with your feelings and may find it hard to deal with emotions and instincts calmly. If your lover tries to cling, gently point out that you enjoy being looked after when you need and want it provided the experience is not spoiled by a sense of being trapped in a crab's claws!

Aquarius Leo

This Sun sign combination can be helpful for working towards a common purpose. The air of Aquarius enables the fire of Leo to burn. Air is also the interpreter of fire. Your partner may provide the inspiration which enables you to contribute ideas which can be worked out in practice, which your partner will then manage so as to encourage practical realisation of those ideas. You may disagree about the purpose of your business, feeling your partner's desire for a sense of personal achievement contrasts with your greater social awareness. Try not to take entrenched positions from which agreement is hard to reach.

If you have Aquarius and your lover Leo Moon or Ascendant there will be plenty of excitement. Your Leo lover will enjoy plenty of appreciation, preferably expressed in the form of gifts of flowers or a romantic dinner. Both of you will want the freedom to explore your own interests. The instinct you both have for loyalty will motivate you to reconcile your differences. Unless other chart factors assist you will want to keep clear of emotional complications, but you have to learn to face these, otherwise your relationship will not grow the roots needed for survival. If you share a home shopping may seem like a tedious chore unless you can find a way of making an adventure out of it. Impulse buying can soon lead to poverty!

Aquarius Virgo

If you have this Sun sign combination you may find working together a challenge. Both of you are willing to persevere in your plans but your patience may be tried when your partner considers that some of your innovations will not work in practice. If you are sure of your ideas try to persuade your partner not to write them off immediately. Patient discussions may help to resolve most difficulties, but Aquarius does not let go of ideas easily, and Virgo can be so tied up with practical details that the overall plan gets lost.

If this is your Moon or Ascendant combination you may feel constrained in your interests by what your Virgo lover considers to be right and proper. If Virgo seeks loyalty it is because it is perceived as the best way of life rather than through any instinct in that direction. Temperamentally there may be a clash between your need for freedom of movement and your Virgo lover's need for security. If you read a book or newspaper that you find interesting and then start discussing it you may be asked whether or not you have gleaned anything useful from it. For you, social awareness may have been main point, but Virgo wants to translate that awareness into practical action.

Aquarius Libra

If you have this Sun sign combination you are likely to work well together. Both of you may be full of ideas, your partner being the one more likely to initiate a plan for realising them, while you may be able to surprise your partner with exciting innovations to those plans that could also make them more useful to society at large. You may have to do some research to find out whether or not those innovations are really practical.

If this is your Moon or Ascendant combination your relationship is likely to feature plenty of chat and exchange of ideas, and if all that seems like fun to you, then you will have a good time. Both of you need freedom of movement and hate to be tied down, but you have a greater instinct towards loyalty than your Libra partner has, and both of you have a sense of responsibility, which could provide a useful element of stability between you. Neither of you may be very good at supporting the other through difficult experiences unless other chart factors assist. Don't run away at signs of emotional complexity - facing it can deepen your love and your approach to the whole of life.

Aquarius Scorpio

If this is your Sun sign combination you will both be very determined to achieve your aims, but your methods may be quite different, and you may not easily see how complimentary those methods can be. Your partner may see the obstacles to your path more clearly you can. Scorpio can lift the lid that covers surface appearances, especially when it come to motivations, both your own and other people's. Your finger may be on the social pulse, finding out what people really want and need. Your partner may then do an in depth study to clarify what is possible and probably profitable.

If this is your Moon or Ascendant combination your Scorpio lover may long for you to be emotionally as well as sexually committed. Scorpio's sultry demeanour can be very enticing at the same time as it is challenges your comfort level. Taking the trouble to explore your discomfort without blaming your lover for it can be very attractive to him or her and can help deepen your relationship. You are both inclined towards loyalty, which should help you to persist through difficulties.

Aquarius Sagittarius

This Sun sign combination is normally helpful for working towards a common purpose. The air of Aquarius enables the fire of Sagittarius to burn. Air is also the interpreter of fire. Your partner may provide the inspiration which enables you to devise a strategy and contribute ideas, and you may also surprise your partner with exciting innovations that could make them more useful to society at large. You may have to do some research to find out whether or not those innovations are really practical. You would probably benefit from having a skilled manager to assist in the realisation of your ideas. For both of you satisfaction comes from playing with ideas, not with their practical application.

If this is a Moon or Ascendant combination there is likely to be plenty of light-hearted conversation between you. Your Sagittarius lover may excite you and introduce you to experiences beyond your normal routine (such as foreign adventures), and you may introduce your lover to more wacky ideas in return! Both of you need freedom of movement and hate to be tied down, but you have a greater instinct towards loyalty than your lover has, which could provide a useful element of stability between you. Unless other chart factors assist you will want to keep clear of emotional complications, but you have to learn to face these, otherwise your relationship will not grow the roots needed for survival.

Aquarius Capricorn

If you have this Sun sign combination you may find working together a challenge. Your patience may be tried when your partner considers that some of your innovations will not work in practice. If you are sure of your ideas try to persuade your partner not to write them off immediately. Patient discussions may help to resolve most difficulties. Aquarius has a stubborn streak which does not let go of ideas easily but which can be diverted towards making a success of your project. Capricorn can get so tied up with practical details that the overall plan gets lost.

If this is your Moon or Ascendant combination a strong sense of responsibility may be the most powerful stabilising force between you, encouraging you to persist in your relationship where others might decide to split up. Temperamentally there may be a clash between your need for freedom of movement and your Capricorn lover's need for security. A Capricorn Moon in particular may cling, and you may be torn between the need for freedom and an instinct towards loyalty. Maybe in your earlier years you had to fight for independence and your lover suffered from lack of emotional support when it was needed. Sharing your experiences may help to overcome difficulties.

Aquarius Aquarius

If you both have the Sun in this sign you have the potential to work well together. Your biggest difficulty may be that you both stubbornly insist on your own ideas, considering them to be better than the other's. You may not like to admit that your partner's idea on any issue is better than yours, and a careful, honest assessment by both of you may be necessary to find the best way forward. You may work best with a senior manager supervising you, and with a colleague who can advise on the practicality of your plans.

If you both have the Moon or Ascendant in this sign your relationship is likely to feature plenty of chat and exchange of ideas, and if all that seems like fun to you, then you will have a good time. Both of you need freedom of movement and hate to be tied down, but you also both have an instinct towards loyalty and a sense of responsibility, which could provide a useful element of stability between you. Neither of you may be very good at supporting the other through difficult experiences unless other chart factors assist. Don't run away at signs of emotional complexity - facing it can deepen your love and your approach to the whole of life.

Aquarius Pisces

If you have this Sun sign combination you are both concerned to make the world a better place through what you do, but your orientations are rather different. Your concern may be more with principles that you have about how to improve the lot of the human race, and your ideals may be tenaciously held. Pisces has a fertile imagination that may seem to you to produce ideas that feed poets and mystics rather than the population at large that you rely on to make your business a success. However, most people are looking for something that will put them in touch with another dimension of life (whether they realise it or not), and you could bear that in mind. You may need help from someone else to manage ideas and put them to practical use.

If you have Aquarius and your lover Pisces Moon or Ascendant you are likely to feel challenged in this match by what you perceive as his or her emotional sensitivity. Anything that seems straightforward to you may have many subtle implications for your lover, for whom nothing is as simple as it seems. When you have an idea about something you could do together, Pisces is looking for your emotional commitment to it. If uncomfortable feelings arise within you, taking the trouble to explore your discomfort without blaming your lover for it can be very attractive to him or her and can help deepen your relationship. You have an instinctive loyalty and perhaps also a stronger sense of responsibility which could provide a useful element of stability between you. Romantic gestures can help keep your lover's eye from wandering.
