This article is in two halves, the first is written from the viewpoint of the Aries man or Aries woman, and the second is written from the viewpoint of the Aquarius man or Aquarius woman.

From the Aries viewpoint

You'll be drawn to your Aquarius’s unpredictable and dynamic nature, analytical mind and unique style.

You’re a fire sign and your Aquarius is an air sign, and this combination typifies that analogy. You’ll love how uninhibited and independent your partner is, and will appreciate their bold ideas and free-thinking.

You’re both rebellious at heart and neither of you seek or need the approval of others. You see things the same way and both look optimistically to the future rather than dwelling on the past or tradition.

You both can be very stubborn however your Aquarian will rarely dig in on a subject, so you will often get your way. If your partner does dig in however, it’s best to let them win that one, as they won’t back down anytime soon, and overall you tend to be more flexible.

Like so many other aspects of your Aquarians personality you might not totally understand them, but that just adds to their mysterious charm!

Aries Aquarius sex

You’re both impulsive and bold lovers, and will appreciate each others inhibition and sense of adventure.

There’s a chance you will want sex more often than your Aquarian, who can get easily distracted sometimes. While you can likely focus on (or forget about) anything you choose, Aquarius's are somewhat known for becoming very wrapped up in their deep and fascincating thoughts.

Enjoy that aspect of your partner, and don't let it offend you or create a wedge between you. One of the best aspects of this relationship is how unpredictable and exciting your partner is. You’re highly passionate and prone to getting bored, but this is a partner who is likely to hold your interest if you don't let their quirks offend you!

It’s important to note however that we’re looking only at sun signs here. There are many other planets which can have an equal or greater effect on someones personality. Makes sense, as ultimately everyone is of course unique. Generalizing too far based just on sun signs can therefore be misleading.

To fully understand someone or how compatible you are with them we need to calculate those other planet placements from their date of birth, and compare them to your own, and then interpret the results.

This unlocks the real power of astrology, and gives much more useful and specific information – everything from how they view you, how to turn them on, how to avoid arguments etc. If you would like to explore this further please see the astrology compatibility reports page.

From the Aquarius viewpoint

Aquarius and Aries Compatibility

You both place a high value on independence, which works well as neither of you will smother the other. You’re also both optimistic and somewhat rebellious. Your Aries will enjoy your free-thinking, and you’ll enjoy their spontaneity and care-free nature.

It’s likely you have a very similar sense of humor, neither of you are concerned about being politically correct if a situation is funny enough!

Your Aries likes to be largely in control, and you probably wont have a problem with this, though you may want to pick your battles and not be a pushover. They respect someone who stands up to them, at least sometimes.

Neither of you are very emotional, something you’ll both come to appreciate, and neither of you are you jealous or possessive, again an important point to each of you.

Aquarius Aries sex

You have much in common with your fiery Aries, not least your lack of inhibitions. You may find Aries to be fairly demanding in the bedroom, however you’ll probably be able to keep them entertained and constantly begging for more. You’ll certainly appreciate their creativity and spontaneity.

If you can compromise on your weak areas this is a relationship which is likely to improve over time, with great potential!

Summary

So is this article conclusive?

No! This article is based only on sun sign interaction. In order to provide a lot of people with information it's a convenient and fast way to generalize, but it's far from conclusive at this broad level.

To get a complete picture we need to take all the other planets and their interactions into account. If you would like more information for your unique relationship please see the astrology compatibility reports page.

Other resources

Often the hardest questions to ask are the most important - for example, what are their views and expectations for raising children? sharing housework? saving money? career goals? etc.

One subtle and fun way to approach this is by working through a couples question book together - that way it's not really you asking, and delicate subjects can be covered easily. The best book for this I've found is Michael Webb's 1000 Questions For Couples

For reviews of this and other relationship ebooks on subjects ranging from improving your sex life to getting an ex back please see the relationship ebook reviews page.

A third method of further research is to share experiences with other couples of this same sign combination - you may be amazed how consistent they often are. Please see the links below for visitor experiences and questions.

In any relationship there are also very significant external factors. One of these is how well you understand yourself, your partner and your partnership - the more you do, the easier it is to make the relationship more exciting, fulfilling and satisfying for both of you, regardless of your starting position. The articles on how to Make him fall in love with you and Make her fall in love with you have information on how you can use astrology to revitalize a relationship.

Business and family relationships

A solid partnership, your creativity pairs well with the Aries drive and force for action while you have many personality traits in common and a similar outlook on life. Both independant and slightly rebelious by nature, you'll each understand where the other is coming from.
