Scorpio and Aquarius compatibility
Scorpio and Aquarius: a challenging, loyal match between two strong wills.
This reading uses your Sun signs only: their elements, modes and the angle between them. Here's why.
Why: Scorpio is fixed water and Aquarius is fixed air, 90° apart (a square), so you're both determined and loyal, but water needs emotional closeness while air needs room to think.

Scorpio and Aquarius are both independent, unconventional and strong-willed. Scorpio lives in deep feelings and wants to know you completely. Aquarius lives in big ideas and wants to stay free. Both are fixed signs, so both stick to their guns, which makes this fascinating, and a real test of patience.

What works
- Both are loyal once committed and dislike shallow relationships.
- A shared fascination with the unusual, the hidden and the unexplained.

Where you may rub
- Two fixed signs: arguments can go on for days with neither side moving.
- Scorpio wants intimacy and Aquarius wants space, and each can feel the other wants too much.
Tips for getting along
- Aquarius, share how you feel, not only what you think. Scorpio needs both.
- Scorpio, give Aquarius time alone without reading it as rejection.
- Agree to disagree on some big topics, then honour the agreement.
As friends or family
As friends, Scorpio and Aquarius dig into mysteries, documentaries and odd theories together. In a family, they're the independent thinkers who refuse to follow the crowd.
