It’s his birthday. He runs into the arms of the Aquarius girl he loves. He rushes in, hugs her vehemently, plants a passionate kiss on her cheek, and says something like this: “I’ve got a fabulous idea for my birthday tonight. We’ll go to a little Italian restaurant, and then we’ll watch a movie.” The Aquarius girl stares dreamily at a spot over his left shoulder and murmurs, “I wonder how that spot got on the ceiling. Maybe I could paint some flowers and peace signs to cover it up. Awesome. A mural on the ceiling, like the one in the Sistine Chapel…”
ARIES: What does that have to do with my birthday?
AQUARIUS: I’m sorry, honey. I could have sworn that Michelangelo was born in Italy… maybe it was in France…
You see, the only word she caught from his exuberant speech was “Italian.” Any competent astrologer could tell you that there will be a fight that night. However, it is a mistake to assume that a Water Bearer is not always alert, just because she seems ambiguous and distant. In reality, she didn’t miss anything. If you want proof, let’s go back…
AQUARIUS: What’s wrong, honey? You seem worried.
ARIES: I’m not worried. I’m furious.
AQUARIUS: Has a Taurus ascendant.
ARIES: Who has what?
AQUARIUS: Someone I know.
ARIES: Now you have me confused. You have me completely confused.
AQUARIUS: What can you say about a twenty-one-year-old girl who has died?
ARIES: Are you thinking about committing suicide? Baby, I’m not that mad… I swear!
AQUARIUS: I can’t wait to see the movie. I want to give you a bottle of wine for your birthday. I’ll have to write it down so I don’t forget. It’s next month, right? Why are you looking at me like that? Was it last month? Well, she can miss some things…she lives in another world.
The Aquarius girl has a strange air of absent-mindedness. Some people interpret it as daydreaming. Grandma would have called it self-absorption. The Ram considers it an unforgivable wrong. For the Aries, who, you may recall, was born under a cardinal sign, the cardinal sin is to ignore him. She doesn’t ignore him, exactly. And on the other hand, that’s what she does. But no more than she ignores anything that might chain her to a specific event when she concentrates on something not even remotely related to what’s happening right under her nose. The average Aries falls impetuously and totally in love, and demands an immediate response. If he doesn’t get it soon, very soon, his inner defense mechanism against anything that might hurt him kicks in, and he asks himself, “But who needs her?” He needs her, perhaps, very much, but Aries is not a sign that would risk not being reciprocated in love, if he can help it.
It’s never easy for an Aquarius woman to feel confident that she’s in love, even if she’s very interested in a man. That’s because she’s under the curse—or blessing—of friendship, which is Uranus’s own. (It can be one or the other, in turn. It depends.) She finds some fascinating and captivating trait in almost every stranger she meets, not to mention all her acquaintances. How to distinguish that fascination from love? This girl has a really hard time answering the question, “Is it love or friendship?” All she knows for sure is that love must begin with friendship. It’s not, for her, the purely bodily chemistry that consumes some couples and makes them mistakenly think they’re made for each other. This woman never interprets the anatomical differences between men and women as a sufficient reason to become emotionally committed. She’s Air in essence, born under a mental sign—and she must be intellectually attracted to the man before it seems sensible to her to consider a sexual or romantic relationship. It’s not that she’s unable to forget a circumstantial mistake. After all, she’s not a prudish breed. But she makes fewer errors of judgment than her sun-sign sisters who only seek a sense of physical rapport with a man.
She is looking for something more. She is not quite sure what it is, but it is definitely something else. Once she finds him, she will be passionately interested in body play, but until then she will not be seduced by the average player who is only after sensual pleasure. Nor will she be easily overwhelmed by the Aries’s insistent declarations of idealistic love, based solely on impulsive emotion. But she is not at all shy, and as soon as she convinces herself that it will be intellectually exciting, stimulating, and worthwhile to become more intimate with the Ram she is attracted to, she will not bother resorting to flirtatious tricks to keep him on tenterhooks. She will most likely announce, suddenly and unexpectedly, when he is least prepared for such a bombshell news: “I think I love you. Why don’t you spend the night with me?” or perhaps, “Why don’t we live together?” This will startle him for a moment. A fleeting moment. But since he is as truthful and sincere as she is (they both despise hypocrisy and neither of them cares a fig for what the neighbors think… they do whatever they want and love to break conventions and defy society’s stupid rules), she will quickly recover and accept his suggestion. When this initiative comes from a man, it is a proposition. When it comes from a woman, it is nothing more than a friendly suggestion.
These subtleties are among the advantages of female status that are hard to give up in exchange for the benefits of sexual equality proposed by the Equal Rights Act. The mention of sexual equality brings us to perhaps the most important, and most threatening, aspect of a relationship between these two. She is born under a masculine Sun sign, and the equally masculine planet Uranus aggressively guides her attitudes and actions. The Ram is also born under a masculine Sun sign, and his attitudes and actions are also aggressively guided by the equally masculine planet Mars. To top off this astrological tie, she is Fixed (headstrong) and he is Cardinal (determined). This may seem very daunting, like a child’s game of drawing a line and daring another to cross it… or like a gun-to-gun showdown. But it’s not all push and pull between these two. There’s also a good deal of give and take, thanks largely to the beneficial karmic influence of their 3-11 Sun sign configuration. It brings all kinds of beautiful dividends and stimuli to happiness and harmony into your relationship. The most beneficial of all is the friendly aspect of the 3-11 vibration, which allows couples influenced by it to be friends as well as lovers.
You see how this can solve many of the Ram’s problems regarding her Uranus fetish for friendship. Moreover, this influence creates the right atmosphere for free and fluid communication between the two of them – most of the time. They will find it easier than most couples to talk about their disagreements – and to communicate their feelings to each other. They will both benefit more or less equally from this peculiar virtue of the personal vibration of their Sun sign configuration because she is an Air sign and all Air signs like to talk. He is an Aries and likes it even more. All these advantages somewhat dilute the negative effect of the confrontation between the fixed and the cardinal and the tie between the two masculine signs. Which does not mean that the latter can be dismissed entirely. These problems will still need to be dealt with to some extent, but it will not be difficult – or impossible, for that matter – to find a solution.
Once she has decided that this relationship is worth her full commitment, the sexual compatibility between the Ram and the Water Bearer girl (who, by the way, despite her name Water Bearer, does not have the essence of Water, but of Air… by reason of one of her many contradictions), holds the potential for a rare and beautiful fusion. But the potential needs encouragement to develop. She may be intrigued by the vehemence of his desire and the overwhelming passion with which he makes love to her. Likewise, it is always a good thing for an Aquarius woman to be intrigued by something, because she is curious and will generally not rest until she has solved whatever puzzle life or love presents to her. However, here is a warning for the Ram. The Water Bearer gets bored quickly after she has pieced together the puzzle and satisfied her curiosity. So the best way to ensure that physical union will continue to produce the same wonderful ecstasy as it did in the beginning is for the Aries man to always approach his sexual coupling as something special, different, and in some way unusual. From time to time he will have to modify the way he approaches his intimacies. She won’t mind if the variations involve deep, silent physical communion after a fight, so that the sudden satisfaction of amorous appetite becomes an eloquent mutual apology without words… or if they involve choosing an unusual circumstance to consummate their erotic needs at an extravagant hour of the day, so that this is not always a nocturnal ritual… or if he decides to play classical music during their contact, and turns up the stereo at full volume until the exchange of tender words becomes impossible (and unnecessary, because music has an exultant aphrodisiac effect)… or if they whisper and talk constantly during the physical expression of their love… and if he recites poetry or tells her stories… or if he is sweet and delicate or violent and fierce… as long as sexuality is never monotonous and boring, nor a repetitive ritual.
Her craving for variation is something he must understand. She must understand that this man is hurt more deeply than he will ever let on when her occasional sexual indifference leads him to believe that she does not really need him. She must never react to his sexual outbursts with anything but sincere, all-consuming enthusiasm, and she must always greet his embraces with unmistakable joy and anticipation. Otherwise he will be temporarily impotent and unable to express his physical love for her, out of an unconfessed feeling of resentment, which she may not even notice, because for Aquarius, sexuality, like everything else, is just another facet of his varied existence. She may be happily tuning up her car on a Saturday morning, or going about her business, during one of these cooling-off periods, not remotely suspecting why he is so frustrated. She should encourage herself to be more attentive to his moods and whisper in his ear that she needs to rest for a while (in his arms, of course), but taking care not to make it seem like she is the one initiating the coupling she suggests and to please him in every way.
Keeping the Ram sexually satisfied and happy requires a great deal of consideration, and this woman, while not deliberately or intentionally inconsiderate, can become absorbed in a multitude of manic activities and interests while neglecting the one important activity: her love for one another. Sometimes the Uranus-esque longings for experimentation and unpredictable behavior of the Aquarius woman come across to the Ram who truly loves her like a mess of disordered, shifting moods and maddeningly short flashes of attention. He feels as if he cannot catch her—like a butterfly or a lark. But if he does not try to master her personality and allows her the freedom she needs to develop her individuality, one day all her many vocations will spontaneously integrate into the whole of her fascinating being, giving him sublime moments every time they make love.
Sometimes, the overwhelming ambition, endless energy, and profusion of daydreams that shoot like comets from the vibrant aura of the Aries man will make the Aquarius woman who truly loves him feel as if she is living in the company of a sack full of fireworks, ready to explode at the touch of a match. She can’t seem to convince him to slow down and accommodate herself to her complicated and intricate, but slower and dreamier approach to life. But if when he stumbles and falls, she always remembers to communicate to him that she loves him with all her heart as much as when he is elated by victory (and perhaps even more, because of his vulnerability), his emotions will gradually mature and his confidence will grow into a towering tree of stability. Then she will wish he would go back to being an impulsive child, because she will miss his spontaneity. You see, she is ruled by Uranus, the planet of change. So she will perversely throw a match into her Martian bag of explosives just to check if he is still the man who made her laugh for the first time when she was sad and cry when she was happy. Her doubts will not last long. Bengal lights are still flammable…
He was just pretending to be mature and stable. And this will make her very, very happy, in an Aquarian way, which is to say, insanely and upside down. So happy that he will surprise her with a bottle of wine. Later, when they are both “resting” (it was his idea alone), he will look at the ceiling and comment, “You know, honey, the mural you painted to cover the stain reminds me of a Michelangelo painting.” “Hooray!” she will exclaim, jubilant. “How did you know I wanted to go to Italy?” How did she know? Easy. He has finally mastered high-frequency modulation and tuned into the Uranus wave. Besides, he has always wanted to visit the Sistine Chapel. Maybe they can go there for her birthday, he will say… She will smile and say that it is a great idea. Then they will engage in a pillow fight. She will win. Feathers everywhere. He will not be upset that he lost. Yes, they are finally in tune.
Aries Man Obsessed with Aquarius Woman
The horoscope gives the Aquarius Woman and Aries Man bond good compatibility.
This bond will only last if Aries does not prevent the Aquarius from expressing herself freely. The Aquarius woman is, by nature, independent; so her man must give her freedom.
The Aries man likes to take the reins of the relationship, this has to be accepted by the Aquarius.
Most Aquarius-Aries couples tend to be short-lived, this is because Arians tend to look for a more submissive and romantic woman, in addition to always looking for the perfect partner.
The best of Aquarius Woman and Aries Man
Mentally and emotionally these two are the most compatible signs. When they first meet, it is probably a conversation that lasted hours. There was no need for anything physical to happen when emotionally something good was found and experienced. Each person walked away thinking that not only do I want this other person in my life, but I need them. It’s such a rare emotional connection that it happened quickly.
The Aries Man Aquarius Woman in Love
The relationship between an Aries man and an Aquarius woman can be quite spectacular, considering that they are both quite enthusiastic and love to go out and explore the world.
Discovering new things about anything, discovering new ways to have fun, while testing your limits, could there be anything more entertaining than this?
They think not, and we tend to agree with them. The great intellect and resourcefulness of the Aquarius is something that his partner deeply appreciates and loves.
And in turn, the adventurer and thrill seeker Aries will be immediately besieged by her partner’s attention and interest, because, to be honest now, where else could they find someone more in line with their own passions and desires?
It is a unique opportunity that they have here, and they are not going to waste it. The usual problem that everyone has to deal with when courting an Aries is a lack of drive and explosive taste, but with the Aquarius lover, that is not a problem at all, as he has so much dynamism and vitality to two lives.
Sure, there will be many times when you can’t seem to come to a consensus on something, but after all, that’s a common thing in relationships, and it’s not that bad anyway.
They just have to learn to separate emotionally when it gets too hot, and everything will be fine. Furthermore, neither of them hates the other or seeks to undermine their authority, it is just a difference of opinion, which can be quickly resolved.
Clash between Aries Man and Aquarius Woman
Ultimately, the Aquarius personality requires a little more privacy than the Arian personality. Aries starts to get annoyed by the Aquarian’s carefree attitude. The Aries personality wants to advance and make progress. They dislike obstacles getting in the way of their most desired outcomes.
The moodiness of the occasionally Mars-ruled Aries is a problem for Aquarius to manage. Everyone in the space (and the immediate area) will be aware when something annoys an Aries. They don’t hesitate to show their irritation. Until they are back in a friendly position, Aries is difficult to deal with. Although Aquarius has a cool head, they can also lose their temper and become difficult.
Big dreams are possible for Aquarius, who also has a vivid imagination. They are the type of person who consistently has brilliant ideas but never seems to take any action. The absence of behaviors that are focused on taking action might grate on the Aries. If the Aries is not encouraging, Aquarius might not carry out their plans. The Aries may become resentful of the Aquarian’s carefree attitude toward goals as a result of this.
There are some pronounced similarities between the Aquarius woman and Aries man love match. They have the power to either encourage or frustrate one another. If the Aquarian observes aspects of the Aries born self that they do not like, it may result in negative emotions. The same holds true for Aries when considering Aquarian traits.
Elements of Aquarius Woman and Aries Man
There are the creative fires and the intellect that feeds them in the relationship between Aquarius and Aries. Since the element of air corresponds to intellect, Aquarius is all intellect. Fire is in harmony with this creature’s Sun Sign because Aries is a warrior soul that demands action.
Air and Fire work well together as elements. Fire feeds on air. Air promotes the growth of fire. What does this mean in terms of the characteristics of the Aquarius-Aries combination? The intellectual Aquarius can support the development and growth of the action-oriented Aries. The action-oriented Aries can inspire Aquarius’s intellect while providing inspiring support.
How to improve the relationship between Aquarius Woman and Aries Man
The Aquarius-Aries bond has good compatibility. That does not mean that everything will be rosy … complications may arise that put the couple in a crisis.
The Aquarius woman must give the Aries enough freedom not to suffocate him. They must find a common point between the two. These signs are also very competitive, at this point they can crash a lot.
While the Aries man must encourage the Aquarius and never limit her potential because she is like a sensitive flower and gets depressed in front of a castrating man. In any case, the Aquarius woman is not characterized by being submissive.
As for passion in bed, it begins very well in this Aquarius woman and Aries man couple. The problem is that as time passes, it is not the same as before and you may wonder what happened to the relationship? Do we really love each other?
Unfortunately, it is something that happens in most couples over the years, they fall into a routine and their relationship becomes boring. Seek to fulfill fantasies, incorporate new things in bed, do not be afraid to say to each other what each one wants. It is important not to be selfish in sex.
The Aquarius-Aries bond always loves to dream and is projected in the long term, luckily they coincide a lot in their objectives. But they can also be very disappointed if they do not comply or if they feel that their partner is making little effort to achieve them. It will always be essential to strive to meet the proposed goals, otherwise, this link could easily become disintegrated.
Also, the Aquarius woman is quite curious, just a warning: beware of that excessive curiosity because he can be very affected in his self-esteem if he finds that they persecute him and distrust him. The woman must be very sure that her man may be unfaithful before confronting him.
The Aquarius is usually sure whether or not she loves her Aries man. But this does not imply that if she feels she doesn’t want him anymore, she will make a hasty decision and leave him. Quick decisions should never be made as you may later regret it later when it is recognized as a bad decision.
