Aquarius: Zodiac Sign Profile and Compatibility With Every Sign
Aquarius is a air sign, born 20 January – 18 February. Below: what the sign is like, the man and the woman separately, and Aquarius compatibility with all twelve zodiac signs broken down across five areas.
Aquarius: the sign in plain terms
The sign at a glance
- •Dates: 20 January – 18 February
- •Element: air
- •Modality: fixed
- •Ruler: Uranus and Saturn
Aquarius treats convention as one option among many rather than a given. They are friendly, curious and still keep their distance — not out of coldness, but because personal freedom is a base value for them.
In a relationship Aquarius offers what many people lack: no jealousy of your friends, no demand for reports, and a view of the partner as a separate person rather than an extension of themselves. Friendship inside a couple is not a metaphor here.
The flip side is emotional detachment. Aquarius explains feelings with logic and starts analysing at the moment when simply being there was the ask. The second is stubbornness: they will argue politely and then change their mind only on their own terms.
Aquarius woman: what she is like in a relationship
To a woman born under the sign of Aquarius, animal passions are baffling.
She does not become aroused quickly.
She prefers tenderness and idealizes love.
Do not count on uncontrolled sexual behavior from her.
After intimacy she may calmly get up and start making the bed.
But if you do manage to excite her, everything will be different.
She is extremely inventive and takes a keen interest in new pleasures.
There is nothing in the sex manuals she would not try and perhaps even improve upon.
Her warmth and understanding are especially effective with men who are prone to impotence.
She feels for them and tries to help however she can.
In fact, one of the difficulties Aquarians face is their wish to give pleasure, often putting others' interests ahead of their own.
Aquarius man: what he is like in a relationship
Because of his reserved temperament, sex and erotic experiences do not occupy the foremost place in his life.
Aquarius pays more attention to the theory than to the practice of sex, preferring to talk about ideal positions rather than make love.
He is interested in a woman as a person, not as an object for sex.
Many women find it wonderful to meet a man who takes an interest in their mind and not only their body.
With him everything happens slowly and deliberately.
He loves long, varied foreplay.
For him it is an important part of the whole game.
Indeed, his patient approach could earn him the title of a true artist in love, were it not spoiled by his tendency to drag things out too long.
Once warmed up, however, he becomes a very inventive lover and remarkably persistent.
He will bring you to a climax, you can be sure of that.
A woman who knows what she wants can do anything with him.
He will gladly try his hand at the most exotic erotic ventures.
Aquarius compatibility with every zodiac sign
The table is not symmetrical, so each partner sign carries two numbers: one for a Aquarius woman with a man of that sign, one for a Aquarius man with a woman of that sign. The full breakdown for every combination follows below.
| Partner sign | Aquarius woman | Aquarius man |
|---|---|---|
| Aries | 81% | 76% |

Aquarius compatibility sign by sign
Aquarius woman and Aries man — 81%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Aries woman — scores 76%. It is broken down on the Aries page.
In this union the ambitious Aries and the vivid, unpredictable Aquarius woman may well find their ideal, since the mismatches in their characters are easily offset by their compatibility in bed.
ZodiacA whirlpool of feeling100
The physical pull toward each other in this couple can secure mutual understanding in other areas of life too, bringing into them romance, care, love and passion.
True, none of this, alas, has any bearing on how long their marriage lasts.
Even though both Aries and Aquarius are entirely disinclined to cheat, the possessive Aries is bound to try to control the Aquarius woman in everything.
And her freedom-loving character simply cannot come to terms with that.
In other words, this couple is far better off as lovers or friends than as husband and wife.
WorkWorking rhythm63
At work, Aquarius tends to bring unconventional thinking, autonomy and strong ideas, while Aries brings a fast start, initiative and tasks that call for a bold push.

IntimacyThe couple's chemistry75
In intimacy, Aquarius usually seeks freedom, friendship and intellectual closeness, while Aries seeks direct desire, vivid passion and action without long hints.
Fire and air amplify each other: one provides the impulse, the other ideas and movement.
To keep intimacy from staying superficial, it matters for them to pair playfulness with clear promises.

Communication can work well if they respect different reaction speeds.
Aquarius tends to be independent and cerebral, while Aries is more direct and fast.

Aquarius woman and Taurus man — 66%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Taurus woman — scores 70%. It is broken down on the Taurus page.
In this union, sensuality is one of the most important ingredients.
ZodiacThe full range of feeling82
Taurus and Aquarius have good sexual compatibility, but the practical Taurus and the eccentric Aquarius woman usually have to search hard for other points of contact.
If they never manage to find other shared interests, their relationship usually reaches a dead end.
In life together, the solid Taurus finds it hard to put up with the Aquarius woman's reluctance to keep house, with her unpredictability and her many interests outside the home.
On the other hand, she loves socializing and travel, always reaches for something new, and brightens Taurus's life with her vivid emotions.
Unfortunately, their marriage prospects are not great, but Taurus and the Aquarius woman can make wonderful lovers or friends.
WorkWorking rhythm56
At work, Aquarius tends to bring unconventional thinking, autonomy and strong ideas, while Taurus brings a steady pace, a clear plan and tangible results.

Aquarius woman and Gemini man — 80%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Gemini woman — scores 80%. It is broken down on the Gemini page.
This couple has more in common than the people around them, or even they themselves, tend to think.
ZodiacSolar wind93
And it is far from being only good sexual compatibility and the traits shared by a Gemini man and an Aquarius woman, such as curiosity, a love of travel and a sharp mind.
Their outlook may not incline them toward home and hearth, yet a union of two such independent people often proves sturdier than many others.
Or it does not, much depends on fate and on the two of them.
Beyond never being bored with each other, Gemini and the Aquarius woman also hold very similar views on life, love and family.
The one exception is perhaps fidelity: Gemini is not especially prone to it, whereas the Aquarius woman is incapable of cheating herself and is not inclined to forgive it in others.
So they will be able to stay together for the long run only if the Gemini man rethinks his "free" way of life.
In that case their extravagant, vivid union will be nothing short of enviable.
WorkWorking rhythm68
At work, Aquarius tends to bring unconventional thinking, autonomy and strong ideas, while Gemini brings a fast exchange of ideas, flexibility and strong communication.

IntimacyThe couple's chemistry71

Aquarius woman and Cancer man — 62%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Cancer woman — scores 70%. It is broken down on the Cancer page.
This union often struggles to last: the rule-abiding, solid Cancer finds it hard to understand the unpredictable, freedom-loving Aquarius woman.
ZodiacSide by side, but not together66
At the start of the relationship they are often drawn together by their dissimilarity, which gives them both a sense of novelty, but over time that novelty wears off while the misunderstanding only grows.
More than anything, Cancer longs for a settled family life, which the Aquarius woman cannot guarantee him no matter how she tries.
She, in turn, finds it hard to understand his wish to spend his free evenings at home; she feels weighed down by such a "monotonous" way of life.
Their views on home, family and housekeeping are completely opposite.
The Aquarius woman is too eccentric and Cancer too conservative for their union to be long and durable.
If the relationship is dear to both of them, they can preserve it only by mastering the art of mutual understanding and endless compromise.
WorkWorking rhythm55
At work, Aquarius tends to bring unconventional thinking, autonomy and strong ideas, while Cancer brings safety, care for the process and a healthy emotional climate.

Aquarius woman and Leo man — 77%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Leo woman — scores 81%. It is broken down on the Leo page.
There is also a dedicated page for this pair: Aquarius and Leo compatibility.
This relationship is unlikely to begin with love at first sight; it needs time to ripen, but then it is also unlikely to fizzle out of nowhere.
ZodiacA storm of emotions92
Yet even though the courtship in this couple may drag on, giving Leo and the Aquarius woman time to take a good look at each other, this union is not simple.
Indeed, the energetic, practical Leo and the eccentric, unpredictable Aquarius woman are too different to simply walk hand in hand into a quiet family harbor.
On the contrary: this union usually guarantees them a storm of vivid, unfamiliar feelings, and whether that storm ends in marriage or not, only time will tell.
Unfortunately, either way this union usually proves fragile: the Aquarius woman has no wish to stay home and keep house, and Leo finds it almost impossible to accept that, so misunderstanding and daily routine can wreck the relationship.
WorkWorking rhythm62
At work, Aquarius tends to bring unconventional thinking, autonomy and strong ideas, while Leo brings a visible role, confident leadership and the ability to hold a course.
The air-fire element mix and shared fixed modality can help them divide roles without stepping on each other.

Aquarius woman and Virgo man — 62%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Virgo woman — scores 66%. It is broken down on the Virgo page.
Unfortunately, the outlook for this union is far from rosy: an Aquarius woman, with her unpredictability and love of freedom, and a conservative Virgo man find it very hard to live together.
ZodiacUnpredictable zigzags67
Both of them have difficult and very strong characters, so this couple can clash fairly quickly.
In everyday life this can spill over into conflict and resentment: the Aquarius woman tends to accuse Virgo of leading a dull, monotonous life, while he struggles to accept her wish to spend as much time as possible away from home, which leaves them both dissatisfied with each other.
If the relationship matters to Virgo and Aquarius, they should accept their partner as they are and not try to remake them.

Aquarius woman and Libra man — 83%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Libra woman — scores 82%. It is broken down on the Libra page.
In this union neither the cautious Libra nor the freedom-loving Aquarius woman wants a lasting relationship.
ZodiacIndependent dependence100
Yet, to their own surprise, they can spend long years together.
Usually, Aquarius, with her breadth of outlook and relaxed attitude toward money, has no intention of nagging her husband about his work and salary, while Libra, for his part, is ready to share her interests and her many hobbies, even quite extravagant ones.
This couple's home is hardly likely to be a model of order and a bastion of stability, but the Libra man and the Aquarius woman understand each other very well and know how to enjoy life together.

Aquarius woman and Scorpio man — 70%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Scorpio woman — scores 71%. It is broken down on the Scorpio page.
Unfortunately, despite the love at first sight so common in this union, its long-term prospects do not inspire optimism.
ZodiacBalancing on the edge89
The point is that both Scorpio and the Aquarius woman are vivid natures and strong personalities, and Aquarius usually struggles to appreciate the charm of family ties.
Scorpio, by contrast, is serious-minded and expects stability from a partner.
True, for all her independence the Aquarius woman gives Scorpio no cause for jealousy, yet her freedom-loving way of life and her unwillingness to stand at the stove are far from Scorpio's idea of the ideal wife and homemaker.
Under such conditions, their home can turn into a real battlefield where reproaches and a barrage of mutual grievances rage.
This can be avoided only if both sides try to soften their tempers and learn patience and compromise.

Aquarius woman and Sagittarius man — 81%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Sagittarius woman — scores 81%. It is broken down on the Sagittarius page.
More often than not, this relationship is more advantageous and convenient for Sagittarius than for the Aquarius woman.
ZodiacThe art of having one's head in the clouds100
Even so, their vivid, extravagant union has plenty of upsides: they certainly have a great deal in common.
Both Aquarius and Sagittarius are very independent and feel deeply, so understanding each other is usually no trouble for them.
They are also curious and always find a wealth of shared interests.
Together, Sagittarius and the Aquarius woman love to travel, socialize and seek out new impressions.
The only thing their union lacks is any real drive toward stability and building a family.

That is exactly why their relationship rarely ends in marriage, yet when it does, they never let each other grow bored in married life.

Aquarius woman and Capricorn man — 75%
The reverse arrangement — a Aquarius man with a Capricorn woman — scores 73%. It is broken down on the Capricorn page.
This is a rather unusual union: Capricorn and the Aquarius woman are too different for their life together to run calmly and smoothly.
ZodiacNot "because of," but "in spite of"92
Capricorn is solid and serious, while the Aquarius woman loves freedom and accepts no boundaries, but despite this difference they can be a vivid and interesting couple.
In life together, Capricorn usually never loses hope of re-educating Aquarius, who is far from his idea of the perfect homemaker.
In return, she brings imagination and inspiration into his life.
The Aquarius woman knows she can always rely on the steady Capricorn.
Thanks to his dependability and healthy conservatism, which balances her turbulent emotions, their union can turn out fairly strong.

However, despite their mutual understanding and similar interests, Aquarius can grow dissatisfied with the Pisces man's none-too-active behavior.

Quick answers
What are the dates for Aquarius?
Aquarius runs 20 January – 18 February. It is a air sign, fixed in modality, ruled by Uranus and Saturn.
Which sign is Aquarius most compatible with?
In the table above the highest reading is with Libra at 83%, and the lowest is with Cancer at 62%. Both are calculated for a Aquarius woman with a man of the other sign — the reverse arrangement has its own numbers.
Why do Aquarius men and women get different scores?
The underlying table is not symmetrical: a Aquarius woman with a man of another sign and the reverse are described separately, because the roles in the pair read differently. That is why the table has two columns rather than one.
How is a sign profile different from compatibility?
A profile describes one person, compatibility describes what happens between two. A sign with a difficult character can still score high in a specific pair and the other way round, so both are worth reading.
How much should I trust the compatibility score?
It is not a prediction or a diagnosis. The score shows where a pair usually finds things easy and where they tend to argue, and works better as a prompt to talk about expectations than as a measure of your odds.
