Aquarius Astral Profiles and Compatibilities

Aquarius is famous for its contradictory and apparently distant personality. Although this native prides itself on its independent spirit, it can be extremely stable in its relationships. Aquarius lives to excel and never turns its back on a good challenge, so it's not uncommon to see it succeed in relationships with seemingly incompatible signs.

Of all the signs of the Zodiac, Aquarius is most compatible with Libra, Sagittarius and Gemini. These signs appreciate the Aquarius character and don't make big emotional demands. Aquarius gets on beautifully with Libra, and balances Sagittarius and Gemini. Aquarius can develop a more conflicted relationship with the natives of Cancer, Virgo and Pisces. The personality differences between any of these signs and Aquarius are evident. Even if they find common points of interest, their relationship will hardly be peaceful and harmonious.

According to Astrology, the signs of the Zodiac that share the same energetic charge, the Primordial Element (Fire, Earth, Air, Water), energize each other, while signs of different Elements may have greater difficulty in relating to each other. Fire follows the motto “it is better to travel with hope than to arrive”; Earth prefers “arrival”; Air works “as a function of intellect and logic”; Water follows "the ebb and flow of the tide of feelings". Together, the four Elements represent opposites but also the complementarity of astrological archetypes.

Compatibility of Aquarius and Cancer

Aquarius is an Air sign, ruled by Saturn and Uranus (as co-ruling planet), and is constantly looking for new and interesting connections with various people. Cancer is a sign ruled by the Moon, feminine, and considered the most lovable, sensitive and available among the signs of the Zodiac.

Aquarius and Cancer have little or nothing in common. Cancer is governed by intuition and emotions and has an emotional and sensitive personality. Aquarius obeys logic and reason and has a rational and distant personality. These signs have such different personalities that the ability to understand each other is reduced, which makes understanding difficult.

But the differences between the postures of these signs do not stop there. Cancer has a deep need to be nurtured, and Aquarius is very independent. Although the latter is stable in relationships, it usually does not show affection in an effective and warm way, which does not provide security for the sensitive Cancer.

Aquarius hates soft and warm environments that do not encourage them and that, in some way, limit their movements and counteract the urge to discover the world. Cancer, on the other hand, idealizes a world made of dreams and silence, where it can take refuge from the noise and confusion of the external world, which Aquarius loves so much.

The native Aquarius can feel overwhelmed by Cancer's need for affection and its homely character. Aquarius is social, it needs to live surrounded by different groups of people, to exchange ideas, to socialize. This native is rarely moved by another person and can have a hard time understanding Cancers mood swings. This, in turn, sees in this difficulty of Aquarius a cold and insensitive approach to his person. Difficulties and resentments are created.

Cancer is loyal and protective, and demands the same in return. When it feels betrayed or unprotected, it withdraws and develops bitter feelings that it hardly overcomes. In extreme situations, it closes off and avoids the approach of others. These very different postures mean that most conversations and possibilities of understanding are doomed to failure.

The compatibility and chemistry between Aquarius and Cancer is so slight that these two, in most cases, don't even come together. Furthermore, Cancer does not take the initiative to initiate social contact. Can be extremely shy and prefers to wait for other people to approach. Given the little affinity between the two, Aquarius may never attempt to approach.

However, as in all unions, whether friendship or love, these natives can always enrich each other. Cancer can learn from Aquarius to open up to the world and take an interest in comprehensive and modern subjects. They can also learn to be less conservative and open your mind to new ways of being and being.

Aquarius has an ideal partner in Cancer to show him how important it is to give more value to feelings and emotions, especially those closest to it. In addition, Cancer can also make Aquarius see that, as or more important than feeling, is to demonstrate what it feels to the one it loves.

How the Air and Water Signs Relate to Each Other

The Air and Water combination can be problematic, as Water tries to show how it feels while Air spends hours explaining what he thinks. Thus, harmony between two natives of these Elements is uncertain and unlikely to occur.

Normally, Water does not have the swift spirit and cold methodology of Air, lacking the ability to recognize what is beyond appearances. When together, it is normal for these Elements to try to change each other, which does not always work. Water will always require more sensitivity and a more serious recognition of your feelings, and Air will try to urge Water to be less emotional and sentimental.

Water needs a partner with whom it can share its wealth of feelings, and rarely asks for a true response from Air, who has great difficulty in showing how it feels. Its psychological orientation simply does not allow it to understand the sentimental currents inherent in an intimate relationship.

Deep down, Water demands from Air something that it doesn't have, or that it can't handle easily: a genuine passion, commitment and depth. If the situation reaches this extreme, where each one demands changes from the other that are unlikely to happen, both end up distancing themselves. For this reason, a relationship between these two Elements will hardly work unless the feeling and complicity that can unite them is strong enough for both of them to invest in the relationship.

The Air Element and the Astral Personality

Air signs are, above all, mental and intellectual. Air is a master at relating concepts. The Air Element brings together the Wet characteristic that conveys a great mental flexibility, this flexibility in thinking about things and reflecting. They are all-encompassing personalities with a broad vision, unlike Earth Element people who tend to focus on the detail.

In relationships, the Air personality is sensitive and seductive and emphasizes intelligence. For natives of this Element, the best companions are those of the Earth sign. These teach them the means to realize their ideas which, without their help, would remain purely abstract.

The Water Element and the Astral Personality

The most obvious feature of the Water Element is sensitivity. Unlike the Fire Element signs, which represent activity and faith in “moving mountains”, the Water Element signs represent emotions, sensations, perception. Empathy, intuition, fantasy, dreams, affections, feelings are the field of action par excellence for this personality.

The Water signs are like sponges. When placed in a positive environment, where everything is fine, the person is fine and feels emotionally balanced. If, on the contrary, you live in a toxic environment, charged with negative energies, you feel bad and pessimistic.

A Cold and Wet Element, it is a personality that easily molds itself to people's opinions and to the characteristics of the environment. It collects various influences, but it fails to organize them and give them coherence. It is a whole made up of several loose parts that cannot be linked together.

Astrology and Compatibility Between Zodiac Signs

Affinities in relationships manifest themselves in a variety of ways and Astrology can give some clues about how the signs interact with each other. Astrology tells us that the greatest compatibilities arise when two people belong to the same astrological element, as they share the same vision of reality and have a similar way of being and living.

Likewise, the attraction between two opposite signs can be instantaneous and the relationship tends to be harmonious. However, this does not mean that there are no affinities between people belonging to signs of different elements. Where there is love, affection and understanding, life happens. How the relationship evolves depends on many factors, astrological profiles being just one of them.

This is a result of the astrological profiles of the signs that you chose based on the analysis of the compatibility between temperaments, energies and characteristics. This analysis is based on general data, being valid for all types of relationships, whether love, friendship or work.

A detailed and personalized study is only possible through a synastry report. Although the profiles of the signs allow us to deduce whether they are more or less compatible with each other, only through the birth chart is it possible to make a realistic interpretation and draw true conclusions.

Remember that relationships are influenced by multiple variables, astrological being just one of them. The force of will, commitment and free choice condition the way in which relationships can or cannot progress in a favourable way. Any relationship, regardless of the influence of the stars, can work as long as there is a desire for it to happen, on both sides.
