Aquarius compatibility with every sign

By Maren Tremblay, Fatesight editor · Last updated

Aquarius with each of the twelve signs, by two rules: temperament from the elements and everyday pace from the modes. Pick a pair for what the two signs tend to bring each other.

Aquarius needs a friend first and a lover second. It wants freedom, ideas and a partner who has a mind of their own and enjoys using it. What it brings is honesty, loyalty to the people it chooses and a fresh way of looking at almost anything. What it finds hard is possessiveness, and being asked to explain every feeling. Aquarius does best with people who give it room and who see its independence as part of the attraction.

By these rules, its closest matches are Gemini, Libra and Sagittarius, and its hardest is Scorpio.

Loyalty, curiosity and generosity of spirit are the sign's gifts.
