Two Fixed Signs – And I mean fixed.
How To Get Along – Scorpio and Aquarius
The Scorpion and the Water Bearer
This series on AstroCompatibility will cover all of the potential matchups in the Zodiac. We will continue this series thinking about and commenting on Scorpio and The Water Bearer.
Scorpio – Aquarius
Aquarius is Air and Fixed. Scorpio is Water and Fixed. Both are fixed. When you talk about Scorpio and Aquarius you are talking about super fixity. When you see this noun, think one adjective for shortcut purposes: Stubborn. Stubborn about the big stuff, stubborn about style, stubborn about the way they see things. Of course this does not make them “difficult people”; the key is to think about this as a match. If the both of these two are attracted to one another and are contemplating love and affection working magic in their lives, they should probably first pay attention to this chief aspect. These two are going to insist upon being the individuals that they are. This is one of those “transportation and transformation” couplings that I like to name that way for easy comprehension.
If two people fall in love, they can make it. That is the human species. However some couplings and unions will only succeed, or best succeed, if they are “transported to a new place, and transformed in a new way.”
Can they be a great couple, enchanted with each other and taking each other to new experiences? Certainly! Impressive Aquarius can take the Scorpion’s breath away with its style, sureness and grandiosity. Scorpio can be deeply powerful and transfixing for the wild Aquarian. You can see why a short term relationship would be sparked like flint and stone. Since these are special signs and the mix of the two in romance makes them an intriguing and strong duo, it is important to think of what they can do FOR each other, while we also think about what challenges they would have getting along.
Under the topic of challenges, you could see Scorpio running out of patience with Aquarian “uniqueness”. The Water Bearer doesn’t feel the need to think about power or influence when they justify their positions. They are intuitive, and that’s what counts. They feel they can see and know things that others are not privy to. Running into that wall of unchangeability, the Scorpio might experience implosions. Aquarius could fail, after awhile to determine just why Scorpio is so relentlessly serious. Laughter and mirth after all are a part of understanding the ironies of life, according to the Aquarian.
Positive Postulate: This partnership (coupling, union, relationship) could lead to new levels of change for both. Aquarius could get the inner discipline of the Scorpion and care more about money, strategies and the cold rationale for what they are doing. The remarkable ingenuity and special insights that seem to spring from the Aquarian continually, could help lighten up the Scorpio and give them some chances for humor and irrational, off-the-wall observations. Scorpio could thus become more effective and balanced. Aquarius could become less of an impulsive firebrand and more concerned with the impression that it is making before the public.
Romance Recommendation: Romance forces the Aquarian to drop completely down into the physical and psychological realm. Having to surrender itself to the wonderful reality of romance makes them see what many of their spiritual intuitions end up meaning in life. Scorpio overflows with remarkable caring about the meaning and reality of romance. Scorpio can truly benefit Aquarius here, and bring both of them to broadening and deepening spirituality, in addition to the transporting physicality of love.
Conflict Quotient: Aquarius could get loud and defensive and feel very misunderstood in a fight with Scorpio. Scorpio should hold back its level of attack. If it got extreme, it would not be helpful. They should approach each other with the sensitivity that they both would wish would be heaped upon them. Both can be given to making speeches. The stronger they feel, the higher their verbal ascendancy grows. This is where their trouble could mount. Just decreasing their verbal energy might help.
Peace Parlay: Life in the end is repetitive and mundane, and so is Romance itself. This factor asks the question: “Can we be bored together over the long term?” Aquarius and Scorpio, once they meld into a partnership should consider truly giving themselves vacations of peace and quiet.
Keep Up The Interest Graph: Scorpion imagining and Aquarian spontaneity would provide opportunity for both to put together schemes and plans, outlandish and regular, just to keep them out of the gravitational miasma of both of them taking themselves too seriously.
Seven Year Itchiness: There are some signs that by their nature are more stable in their love interests and family concerns as time goes on. Others are not. Aquarians can approach human relationships from their fascinated and intrigued turn of mind. Scorpions too often view the rest of the human race as a different kind of animal than they are. Both should withhold their natural inclination to experiment. Even though both would have natural reluctance and ambivalence, temptation should be avoided for the sake of the union.
RATING:
ASTROCOMPATIBILITY POSSIBILITY RATING: 60% Positive Long Term – 90% Short Term . Dynamite in a small moment might characterize the night they meet. They could have a strong attraction, just on the basis of their uniqueness. The work of getting along over the long term will determine the length of the relationship. How strong their desire is for each other’s company will figure into the formula for transportation and transformation.
