Aquarius compatibility
Aquarius is a Fixed Air sign ruled by Saturn (modern: Uranus). It shares its element with Gemini and Libra (trine), a compatible element with Aries and Sagittarius (sextile), and its Fixed modality with Taurus and Scorpio (square) and Leo (opposition).
Aquarius is a fixed air sign, so the easiest company often comes from the other air signs, Gemini and Libra, which sit in a trine and share your love of ideas and conversation. Aries and Sagittarius, the fire signs in a sextile, bring warmth and adventure that suits your independence. Taurus and Scorpio, in a square, share your fixed stubbornness, which creates friction that can also bind you. Leo sits opposite, a mirror who pushes you to balance the group with the personal. Your neighbours Capricorn and Pisces, and the quincunx signs Cancer and Virgo, ask for more adjustment. Your Sun is one line of a whole chart, so check Venus, Mars and the Moon too.
