Love Horoscopes: Zodiac Sign Compatability For Aquarius And Pisces

For Aquarius (January 20 to February 18) and Pisces (February 19 to March 20), compassion, idealism and creativity are their guiding principles. Both signs have a deep concern for all of humankind, and are forever seeking ways to help others. Aquarius is the more intellectual of the two, keenly observing the world around them and formulating a plan to make society better. Pisces, however, is more emotional and sensitive in their view of the world. They are intuitive and empathetic, and readily share in the plight of others. If this pair can combine Aquarius' ideas with Pisces' compassion, they can make an enormous contribution to society. And by focusing on each other's strengths, they will also make great strides in resolving their differing viewpoints and finding a common cause to work for. Because of their shared commitment to helping others, they are likely to meet through volunteer programs or charity work.

While their differing approaches to life can be a great combination, they can also cause a divide in the relationship. The more intellectual Aquarius can at times be judgmental and aloof, and they are quick to dismiss any viewpoints that don't agree with their own. They can also be emotionally detached, which can clash with Pisces' extreme emotional sensitivity. Because Aquarius is more concerned with pursuing their innovative ideas than with pursuing romance, they may offend the more emotionally needy Pisces. And Aquarius may be put off by Pisces' boundless compassion, which, when taken to the extreme, can lead to self-sacrifice and even gullibility on Pisces' part, something which Aquarius may have little patience for. In fact, Pisces' empathy for others is strong that they can be easily taken advantage of.

Aquarius and Pisces share complementary ruling planets, which makes their connection to each other even stronger. Aquarius is governed by Uranus, ruler of ideas and innovation, and Saturn, whose influence gives Aquarius the drive and organizational skills needed to bring those innovative ideas to fruition. Pisces is governed by Jupiter, ruler of philosophy and teaching, and Neptune, ruler of spirituality. Because of this, both signs share a love of new ideas and for understanding new things.

These two signs may differ drastically in how they react to situations, and this inconsistency can at times drive a wedge between them. But by respecting each other's different emotional styles they can help keep their relationship strong. Aquarius needs to remember to show Pisces their affection, and in turn, Pisces needs to learn less emotional ways to communicate with their more objective partner. Fortunately, when conflict does arise between Aquarius and Pisces, they quickly resolve their differences and put the disagreement behind them.

Equality is an important characteristic of a partnership between Aquarius and Pisces. Aquarius is a fixed sign, and is more likely to initiate new ideas. Pisces, in contrast, is a mutable sign, happy to go along with Aquarius' ideas as long as they feel they have an important role to play in the relationship. And these two signs never argue about who gets to take the credit for their many successes. Instead, they happily share both the responsibility and the credit for making their relationship work.

As a water sign, Aquarius is motivated by thoughts and ideas. Pisces, an air sign, is motivated by emotion. By combining these qualities, the two signs enjoy a relationship full of activity, flexibility and forward motion. Their relationship is further strengthened by their shared values and goals. Both signs are introspective, and both are always looking for ways to solve the world's problems. They are idealistic and enthusiastic, and both crave a relationship characterized by openness and honesty. With so many similarities working in their favor, Aquarius and Pisces make a compatible pair whose relationship will not only benefit them, but perhaps everyone around them as well.
