Aquarius
Women:
Aquarius is an air sign, concerned with new ideas
and social change. Aquarius women are highly original and innovative
in their thinking. They usually have many progressive ideas about
how to make the world a better place. They also tend to feel that
they know all the answers and for this reason sometimes becomes
dogmatic and inflexible. They value personal freedom above all
else, and will rebel against restrictions on this freedom. The
Aquarius woman usually considers herself a completely unique individual--a
law unto herself. She will feel "different" from the
rest of the women, and may feel that she always swims against
the flow of the water. At the same time, she
is usually idealistic about women's relations. Finding harmony
with women is important to her. She is prone to join all sorts
of causes for social justice as she would love to help build her
own vision of an ideal world. She loves to mix with women and
has many friends. But, paradoxically, she also craves periods
of complete solitude. Perhaps there is a strain in adjusting to
other women, and Aquarians are not the most adaptable sign. In
a love relationship the Aquarius woman hates to be confined to
a humdrum existence. She needs the unpredictable and the freedom
to come and go at will. Ironically, she also likes to be in control
and may not want her partner to be too unpredictable. She does
best with a partner who is flexible, but stable, and who gives
her plenty of freedom but is there when the Aquarian needs someone
to support her. This is a tall order to fill. Because the Aquarian
is so rootless, she needs someone to give her roots, but don't
expect her to become too rooted. Many problems can be overcome
in a relationship with an Aquarian woman if she has a pronounced
telepathic ability. Even though Aquarians love to discuss things
intellectually, many differences of opinion will be overlooked
if this telepathic connection exists. Your Aquarian will expect
you to just naturally know what she wants and needs, and will
appreciate it when you do.
Aquarius
Loving Scorpio
The Scorpio/Aquarian combination brings together women of nature's
power. This combination uses every asset available to relating
to work out their differences. Scorpio, a water sign, takes uncompromising
and emotional stands in life; Aquarius, an air sign, needs to
see her partner clearly at all times. These two women approach
relating differently: the Scorpio woman may have difficulty understanding
the detached and sometimes aloof caring of her Aquarian partner,
and the Aquarian woman may have lessons to learn about the emotionalism
in the Scorpio advances. Both women have pride issues that must
be addressed, and they tend to take stances which are based not
on truth, but on ego gratification. The principles that are important
to them must be redefined in the context of relating equally to
each other. These two women will appreciate the way each has developed
skills to focus on themselves. Both women, though, will resist
any attempts at domination.
The
main area of challenge is centered in the area of physical intimacy.
The sensitive Scorpio woman may feel her Aquarian partner is too
cool for true comfort and is indifferent when in actuality the
Aquarian feels intimacy deeply but wants to take time - months,
even years - to establish complete union. The Aquarian woman sometimes
feels emotionally scattered by the psychic demands of the Scorpio
woman.
When
the challenges are quiet, their relationship is very constructive.
Understanding and kindness prevail, and Aquarius not only learns
about external promises of love, but feels a true sense of heartfelt
contact with another woman. The Scorpio energy verifies the Aquarian
woman's feelings of purpose.
Aquarius
Loving
Libra
The combination of Libra and Aquarius is karmic. Both Libra and
Aquarius are air signs, concerned with finding and proving the
truth through expanding their mental outlook on life and utilizing
open verbal discussions. The Libra woman continually seeks balance
and clarity through verbal accord; the Aquarius woman needs to
find an objective and detached understanding of her role in the
relationship. She is interested in the whole issue of living,
spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically. She seeks
understanding with her partner and needs to know how they fit
together. The mental rapport is very strong between these two,
and they will both tend to discuss their differences and character
defects dispassionately and in the open. When differences arise
between them, they are usually minor. They are both able to take
an objective and detached perspective. However, there are subtle
differences in the way they approach these differences. The Libra
needs to find truth through seeing both sides of an issue, and
becomes very elastic mentally in this partnership. The Aquarian
tends to take one invariant position, which she trusts and feels
is right. Once she takes this position she can hold to it firmly
and even dogmatically. The Libra woman may see her Aquarian partner
as being rigid and closed to other points of view, and the Aquarian
woman may feel her Libra partner changes too readily with the
circumstances, and is too concerned with people-pleasing.
Libra
women desire continual interaction, and partnership is very important
to them. The Aquarian woman is much more independent and needs
a lot of space, and may need to be away from her partner a lot.
The Libra woman may interpret this as rejection. In spite of these
challenges, these two are very similar in their need to establish
agreement through open and honest discussion. They will reach
harmony and balance when honesty is achieved, and this issue is
the most important issue in both their lives. Sexually, this combination
enjoys each other's uniqueness and they talk a lot during sex.
Aquarius
Loving Aquarius
The Aquarius and Aquarius combination is a very fast-paced connection.
Aquarius is an air sign concerned with the freedom of a detached
and impersonal perspective on life. Remember that the true test
of freedom is within the arena of a relationship. These two women
will keenly enjoy exchanges of theories of life and new perceptions
of ways to be in this relationship, and both are fascinated by
the realm of abstract ideas and theories. They are both well-equipped
with self-focusing skills, and each truly respects the personal
idiosyncracies of the other. There is a real opportunity to develop
support mechanisms between these two women that is based on solid
womanly-love ideals. The Aquarian woman is often eccentric and
unpredicatable with her comments, and she will be tolerant of
these character traits in her partner.
Although
these two women have a great deal in common, their challenges
will be due to the uncompromising nature of their views. Each
can be very intolerant of the personal values of the other. The
status of the relationship is the most important issue they will
understand, and if there is disagreement on this level, peace
will be infrequent as each woman tends to feel convinced that
she is right about what she believes. Another challenge is that
these women communicate beautifully on the intellectual level,
but they may be hesitant on intimate feelings and sharing. Because
of this there is great empathy for giving each other space. In
order to really make a solid connection these two may need to
cultivate ways of including intimate interactions in their life.
Otherwise, these two may prefer a friendship to a relationship.
In
spite of these issues, these women love to appreciate each other's
freedom skills and enjoy a good and favorable belief in themselves
while in this relationship. They will be motivated to maintain
their love connection.
Aquarius
Loving
Cancer
The Cancer/Aquarius combination will require a lot of patience,
tolerance, and acceptance from both parties. Cancer, a water sign,
approaches life entirely from an emotional point of view, while
Aquarius, an air sign, approaches life from a cool, objective
mental standpoint. Cancer reacts to people and situations through
gut-level feelings, and Aquarius, although capable of deep emotion,
strives to separate herself as completely as possible from emotionality.
Obviously,
these two women do things very differently. The Cancer woman will
be frustrated at times in expressing her feelings with her Aquarian
partner. She will feel that certain things that are very important
are hard to express in abstract intellectual terms. The Aquarian
woman tends to want to be completely divorced from personal, emotional
needs and will find the Cancer woman's desire for emotional reassurance
exasperating at times. To the Aquarian woman, mental rapport is
the most important connection, and she can feel uncomfortable
with a lot of emotional intimacy. The Aquarian tends to be independent
and self-reliant and may feel smothered by the Cancer's tendency
to nurture. The Cancer woman often finds her Aquarian partner
cool and aloof, and the more the Cancer woman reaches out to her
Aquarian partner, the more the Aquarian woman withdraws onto a
high, detached plateau.
These
two women will have to work hard to overcome these differences.
The Cancer woman must learn not to take the things her Aquarian
partner says or the actions she takes to detach from closeness
so personally. She must realize that the most important thing
for an Aquarian is the freedom to take an objective view of life.
The Aquarian woman must learn more respect for her Cancer partner's
feelings and sensitivity, and her need to nurture and support.
The Aquarian must realize that this emotionality represents another
side of life with which she needs to come to terms.
Once
these two women accept each other's differences, they will find
that they enrich each other's personalities. The Cancer woman
will be able to approach life more objectively and see things
from a broader perspective, and the Aquarian woman can be helped
to get more in touch with her inner personal feelings and to become
more balanced emotionally.
Sexually,
these two women may have to work to attain compatibility. The
Cancer woman is very warm and caring in her approach to love,
and the Aquarian woman is more reserved and needs a lot of verbal
interaction, as mental rapport is more important to her than the
physical expression of love. The Aquarian needs to learn to express
the feelings she may feel very intensely, but tends to keep under
control.
Aquarius
Loving
Virgo
The Virgo and Aquarius combination brings together two women who
are very different, and this combination is very rare. Virgo,
an earth sign, is mainly concerned with grounding and practical
issues, and Aquarius, an air sign, needs freedom to approach life
from a detached and objective standpoint. The Aquarius woman dislikes
being bound by routine relationship "together" and "not
together" issues, and the Virgo woman will only feel comfortable
when she knows where and how she stands in the relationship.
Although
they are very different from each other, both approach life from
a detached and mental point of view. The Virgo woman loves to
understand and compare relationships and needs to have a well-organized
life. The Aquarian woman, in her own way, can be very clear and
objective when it comes to relating. These two women will respect
each other's strong intellectual abilities and will profit from
talking about experiences and issues that affect their relationship,
from past encounters to their different ways of relating.
If
these two can challenge these differences, especially in the area
of emotional and spiritual pursuits, each will find the other
a support. Intimacy between these two women is also a challenge,
as the Virgo woman is discriminating in her approach to closeness,
and the Aquarian is open and innovative. They can find a meeting
point if the Virgo can learn to relax.
Aquarius
Loving Capricorn
The Capricorn/Aquarius combination brings together two very different
women who may need to compromise considerably to create a harmonious
relationship. Capricorn, an earth sign, is concerned with secure
structure and grounding; Aquarius, an air sign, needs the freedom
to transcend mundane concerns, and sees life through a universal
perspective. The Capricorn woman needs security and dependability
in a relationship while the Aquarius woman needs the freedom to
do whatever she pleases with no restrictions. The Capricorn woman
will often tend to feel insecure with her Aquarian partner's unpredictable
ways, and the Aquarian woman may rebel against the duties and
expectations her Capricorn partner tries to impose on her.
In
spite of these differences these women do have certain things
in common. Both the Capricorn and Aquarius approach life from
a more impersonal perspective. Both women are prone to involve
themselves in larger social causes, and a meaningful career is
important to both. Together they can be very effective in instigating
social reform as both are very aware of the impact of social institutions
on people's lives. Both women have the capacity to think abstractly
and see the overall intellectual structure that governs life,
and they will be able to share ideas with each other and find
their mental interchanges productive. Each will respect the well-developed
intellectual power of the other.
Although
these two women may have a very good intellectual relationship
they may have difficulty communicating deeper intimate feelings.
Both women tend to approach life in a somewhat cool and detached
manner, and neither woman is prone to wear her heart on her sleeve.
This can be the basis of misunderstandings between them. The Capricorn
woman, in particular, may feel her Aquarian partner is indifferent
to her because the Aquarian tends to appear calm and detached
in all situations. Both women have profound feelings beneath the
surface but neither one knows how to communicate them easily and
will often try to avoid doing so. Both are afraid of displaying
strong emotion and want to appear outwardly in control. If these
two women can overcome their emotional reserve and share with
each other on a deeper level they will find they have a lot to
offer each other: the Capricorn woman can offer her Aquarian partner
a realistic structure within which the relationship can flourish,
and the Aquarian woman can help her Capricorn partner to expand
and lighten her approach to life, breaking out of the old molds
that bind her and becoming more uninhibited.
Sexually,
these two women may need to work at compatibility, as neither
reveals her feelings and needs very easily. The Aquarian is more
spontaneous sexually and wants to quickly switch from a serious
endeavor into a romantic and playful connection, while her Capricorn
partner may find difficulty releasing the seriousness and getting
into the interchange of closeness. When the Aquarian learns to
realize that her Capricorn partner does not move from one emotion
to another easily and allows her time to adjust to this new proposal,
all will work well. The Aquarian will add novelty and adventurousness
to their sex lives.
Aquarius
Loving Leo
The Leo and Aquarius connection can be very positive, but there
are some differences to be accepted. Leo and Aquarius are opposite
signs on the zodiac and either conflict with or complement each
other. Leo is a fire sign and Aquarius is an air sign. Fire and
air support and expand each other and these two women should be
able to communicate openly and expand each other's perspectives
on life. The Leo woman is concerned with the creative expression
of her own personality, and the Aquarius women is concerned with
creative activities that affect things on the broad collective
level. She is concerned with large social causes and expansive
ideals. Together these two women will have a wide-open social
life. Together they will attract creative people from all walks
of life.
Even
though these two women usually get along harmoniously, there are
significant problems that can arise. The Leo is very much rooted
in the needs of her own personal ego and is highly emotional and
often absorbed in herself. The Aquarius woman wants to detach
herself from an egocentric perspective and is most interested
in taking an impersonal stance in life. She is uncomfortable with
the expression of strong personal emotion, and the Leo may see
her as being cool and aloof and interested in everyone buy her,
interpreting the detachment of the Aquarius as emotional indifference.
The Aquarian woman sees her Leo partner as being self-centered
and emotionally demanding and may feel that the Leo does not care
enough about what happens in the world. She is uncomfortable with
the temperamental storms and drama. The more attention the Leo
woman demands, the more cold and distant the Aquarian woman is
apt to become. She will withdraw into an inner world where the
Leo cannot reach her.
In
spite of these differences these women can be complementary to
each other. The Leo woman can bring out the warm, personal side
of Aquarius, and put her Aquarian partner in touch with feelings
of the heart. The Aquarian can enlighten her Leo partner with
caring and contribution toward humanity. When they are connecting
harmoniously, they can generate a lot of creative energy and make
important contributions to society and themselves. They both enjoy
giving their energy freely and need to be active to feel fulfilled.
They will each find their creativity stimulated by the other,
and balanced out, and their mental perspectives will be expanded.
Sexually
they are basically compatible, but the Leo's approach to love
is generally more ardent than the Aquarian's. The Aquarian woman
will always need a lot of friends and interests even if she is
sexually faithful to one woman, and the Leo woman may become jealous
and possessive if the Aquarian is not giving her the undivided
attention she needs to feel secure. The Leo will feel more content
in this relationship when she accepts her Aquarian partner's openness
to other people as a natural part of her being and does not take
it as a personal rejection.
Aquarius
Loving Sagittarius
The Sagittarius/Aquarius combination can be an ideal match. Sagittarius,
a fire sign, is a strong, independent individual, and Aquarius,
an air sign, also loves freedom and needs a detached and universal
perspective on life. Fire and air support and stimulate each other,
and these two women will find that they have a lot in common,
especially in the realm of intellectual interests. The Sagittarian
woman is always seeking to find what lies beyond the next horizon,
continually aspiring to find the most comprehensive view of life
possible, and the Aquarian woman wants to establish a clear and
objective standpoint removed from the personal limitations of
human emotions, so the values of these two women usually work
together very harmoniously.
Both
women approach life similarly. Both are highly idealistic and
need a great deal of personal freedom. They enjoy involving themselves
in idealistic social causes, and will inspire each other in that
direction. The problems in this relationship are minor, and revolve
around the difficulty each woman has in expressing her intimate
feelings. Both have brilliant minds and tend to think in expansive
terms, but they also can be impractical about the daily details
of life.
Another
problem has to do with the fact that the Sagittarian is restless
and needs constand change, while the Aquarian may seem at times
to be inflexible, dogmatic, and resistant to other people's points
of view; to the Aquarian woman, the Sagittarian may seem undependable
because she is always changing her mind as new information reaches
her. Also the Sagittarian woman has a hot temper and tends to
express her anger in an explosive, outspoken way, and the Aquarian
woman finds this upsetting because she is only comfortable with
a calm and composed approach to life. The Sagittarian woman will
find her Aquarian partner cool and aloof and hard to communicate
with, especially when dealing with emotional feelings.
These
women will have a wonderful mental rapport, and will support each
other's ideals and understand each others' need for space and
time alone. The main area they may need to develop is in expressing
those deeper feelings that are beyond abstract concepts. Both
Aquarius and Sagittarius tend to focus on an impersonal level
of relating, and this could impede a close emotional bond.
Sexually,
these women can be very compatible, especially as each communicates
easily with the other and neither tends to push the other into
the delicate areas of relating on deeper emotional levels; they
respect each other's need for autonomy. Neither tends to be particularly
sentimental or romantic, and neither expects that from the other.
Aquarius
Loving Pisces
The Aquarius/Pisces combination can work out surprisingly well
at times, but not when based on traditional relationship values.
Aquarius, an air sign, can be very detached in her relationship
with her Pisces, and the Pisces, a water sign, is deeply committed
to strong feelings towards her partner. The Pisces woman feels
very close and is willing to open herself up to the Aquarius woman;
the Aquarian tends to be most concerned with herself in this relationship
and with getting her needs met. Somehow the Pisces reaches many
new plateaus because she allows herself to be supportive to her
Aquarian partner. What is so interesting about this combination,
is that the Pisces woman intuitively knows how to detach just
seconds before the Aquarian woman does. The problems for the Pisces
are the withdrawals, even though she initiates them, because she
cares for her loving partner. Emotionally she needs the attention
and affection of the Aquarian much more than the Aquarian needs
her attention. The Aquarius woman tends to be uncomfortable with
strong personal emotions, and therefore, she withdraws. There
is another related challenge: the Aquarian is almost exclusively
prone to take an intellectual view of a relationship and the Pisces
relates from emotions. The Aquarian woman wants discussisons based
on mental values that manifest as feelings, and the thought or
mental processes don't alway match the feeling processes and sometimes
there is a gap.
These
two women are very helpful in the realm of personal growth. Each
woman in her own way is a dreamer, and both are progressive in
their approach to relationships. Each is deeply concerned about
the spiritual well-being of the other, and they share a common
belief in a higher power. Each will use higher self focusing skills
to appreciate profoundly the other's need for spiritual fulfillment.
Aquarius
Loving
Gemini
The Gemini/Aquarius combination is usually a very harmonious one.
Both Gemini and Aquarius are air signs and they enjoy spending
a great deal of time exchanging ideas with each other. Both must
have the freedom to explore new frontiers of the mind, and both
hate being tied to a mundane routine. Each of these women will
appreciate this characteristic in the other. They will spend hours
together discussing the philosophical implications for this idea
or that. Both of them enjoy people, and they will have many friends.
Together they will reinforce each other's gregarious tendencies.
They will probably enjoy joining many social and idealistic organizations
together.
These
two women get along beautifully on the intellectual level, but
sometimes they may have problems because neither one is easily
in touch with her inner personal feelings. They each take a cool
and detached view of life, and both like to theorize about things,
but they may have trouble with raw feelings that are difficult
to categorize and pigeonhole. Another problem may stem from the
fact that Aquarian women are more independent loners than Gemini
women, and during certain periods the Aquarian will want to be
alone. The Gemini woman hates to be alone, and finds her Aquarian
partner aloof and out of reach during these times. The Aquarian
may find her Gemini partner's indecisive and vacillatory ways
hard to deal with, as once the Aquarian formulates some idea of
what she wants to do, she will stick to it tenaciously. When they
do disagree, the Gemini may feel her Aquarian parner takes too
rigid and dogmatic a stance, while the Aquarian woman may feel
exasperated because she can never count on where the Gemini will
stand on anything.
But
basically these are minor problems. Mental rapport is so important
to both these women that they will, ultimately, find ways of resolving
their differences. Both are most comfortable when an atmosphere
of open and calm reason prevails. At their best, the Gemini helps
her Aquarian partner stay open to new perceptions and experiment
with new ways to do things. The Aquarian woman helps her partner
to find enduring principles that can keep her centered through
changing circumstances. Sexually, these two women should be well
matched because they communicate so well verbally and are able
to talk about their sexual needs.
Aquarius
Loving
Taurus
The Taurus/Aquarius combination brings together two strong individuals.
These two women may have many differences to work out between
them. Taurus, an earth sign, seeks stability, comfort, and practical
focus; Aquarius, an air sign, seeks the freedom to explore the
higher abstract reaches of the mind. The Aquarian woman will resist
being tied to the mundane, practical realm of life, and to her,
the Taurus woman may seem preoccupied with stodgy routines. As
a progressive, inventive, and often revolutionary thinker, the
Aquarian may openly rebel against the Taurus' traditional ways.
To the Taurus woman, the Aquarius may seem like an impractical
idealist and dreamer. The Aquarian may seem erractic and unpredictable
to the slow-moving Taurus. If these two women are going to find
common ground, they will both have to compromise, even though
they are each in their own fashion extremely stubbborn.
The
main problem between these two women is that while each tends
to have very different values, they both hold on to their opinions
as if life depended on it. They are equally strong-willed and
uncompromisingly single-minded, and approach things from the point
of view of fixed principles. Actually, when they can look beyond
their differences, they can each respect and support the other's
integrity as strong individuals. Both women are capable of great
self-control, and although they have powerful feelings, they maintain
a calm and composed mask. These are things they can respect in
each other, now their task is for each to develop more appreciation
for the other's basic values.
The
Taurus needs to see that her Aquarian partner can help shake her
out of whatever stagnant rut she may have gotten into. She needs
to open her mind to the Aquariun's far-seeing ideas and expand
her horizons. The Aquariun woman needs to realize that her Taurus
partner can give her the grounding and practical focus that can
help her revolutionary ideals a reality. If these two can work
together in harmony, they can become creative social movers. There
is tremendous creative power in both these signs, and when they
work in unison they release a lot of energy. Sexually, these two
women may have to work for compatibility, since the Taurus is
strongly sensual and passionately emotional, while the Aquarian
orientation is towards mental rapport before physical.
Aquarius
Loving Aries
The aquaries/aries
combination
is generally a smooth and flowing one. The fire of Aries and the
air of Aquarius support and expand each other. Freedon-loving
Aquarius admires the honesty and fresh sponaneity of Aries, and
the Aries woman loves the sense of lofty detachment that the Aquarian
woman often projects (even though the Aries woman has trouble
being detached about anything). Both these women will value freedom
and independence in their relationship, and each will find it
easy to respect the other's individuality and autonomy. In general,
each will find the other a stimulating and inspiring companion
on the mental level. In fact, these two often come together because
they share some common vision, dream, or cause.
The
problems that tend to arise between these two women are minor
in one sense, but nevertheless need attention because they often
revolve around intimate emotional communication. While the Aries
woman does not easily communicate tenderness and affection, her
feelings are ardent and intense. She craves reassurance and warmth
from her partner. The Aquarius woman often has a tremendous ability
to focus her mind, but although she too may have intense feelings,
the most important thing to her is taking a detached position
from which she can see things comprehensively and objectiively.
She may find the Aries demand for a passionate emotional response
unsettling. The Aries in turn may feel that the Aquarius does
not really care about her because the Aquarian emotional expression
is so cool. In other words, the same qualities that can be so
attractive to these two women on the intellectual level could
be a problem on the emotional level. For this relationship to
go beyond a superficial level, the Aquarian must learn to share
her feelings more openly and the Aries must realize that just
because love is not stated directly does not mean it is not there.
Whether
these two women resolve this emotional issue or not, they will
nonetheless make excellent companions. The home they share will
have an open quality that draws many creative and intelligent
people to visit. The two women may find that a larger group with
whom they can share common goals is an integral part of their
relationship. Neither woman will demand that they spend most of
their time together, although in the natural course of things
they will enjoy spending a lot of time together. Sexually, these
two women could have a compatible relationship once they find
ways of communicating better emotionally as well as intellectually.
