Aquarius Pisces mismatch
The two final signs of the zodiac, both Aquarius and Pisces are not really bound to earthly matters. Aquarius theorizes about the laws of the cosmos; Pisces fantasizes about worlds unborn. Aquarius can perceive future trends and conceive technologies that may not be embraced for years. Pisces creates fictions that cannot physically exist.Pisces doesn't even care about the boundaries of science, the quest to understand outer space. For Pisces, inner space is what counts. For Aquarius, laws are made to be broken; for Pisces, laws themselves are illusory lines drawn in the sand to separate what is from what most people can't imagine.
Interpersonally, these signs can't be more different. Aquarius detaches, while Pisces merges. The latter romances and deifies the lover, while the former finds intimacy too sticky. Think Neo from The Matrix, who can bend the laws of physics and overcome the boundaries between humans and AI, versus Agent Smith, who finds the smell of humans revolting.
Mysticism versus Astrology
Pisces will meditate to transcend the limitations of ego consciousness, and feel love for all sentient beings. Aquarius will study the heavenly bodies to understand the meaning behind events and personalities, and although she may achieve an "ah hah!" moment, she doesn't quite feel the interconnectedness of all things (As Above, So Below), as much as comprehend it. Both ways are important, but these two signs don't see eye to eye.

LOL!! Comparing Aquarius to Agent Smith who finds humans revolting is too funny. No love for Aquarius around here huh?
(No, I don't have any Aquarius anywhere in my chart.)
I wonder how an interpersonal Aquarius laden person (say Sun/Moon AND mercury combo) would cope if they end up in a relationship that according to their composite charts sets off passion and fireworks and romantic dreaminess? Do they panic and flee or just keep their feelings to themselves? Or does that relationship bring them out of their interpersonal nature?
I personally am a very emotional person (sun in Cancer) so I find air signs very intriguing. I can't fathom not acknowledging one's emotions.
If a composite chart has some nice Venus-Mars or Venus-Neptune combination, that's the nature of the relationship. Don't relationships have lives of their own? The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
How would an Aquarian respond to such a relationship? Anybody want to comment?
My sister is an uber-Aquarius. She's Sun, Mars and Mercury in Aquarius I believe.
She does tend to justify things easily, and has a brilliant mind for doing so. Sometimes I think it's a case of 'knowing too much', or trying too hard to fit things into an intellectual framework, which relationships often don't fit. She is very good at things involving the mind...organization, and anything else that uses her mental powers. She can be very observant and such, too.
I think that anyone can have a capacity for self-destruction. Whether it's through their logic, through their emotions, through a combination, through impulsiveness, whatever.
I have a lot of Pisces, too. So sometimse my Pisces and my sister's Aquarius clash--I don't think she feels on that wavelength..yet other times out of the blue she surprises me. I guess it's more what feels natural.
Yowza.
Has your sister ever been what she would term "head over heels" in love? Did she feel she had to run away from those feelings or did she have a long lasting relationship when she felt that way?
It appears that Aquarians seems more comfortable keeping a distance. So I would assume a full Aquarian with no water in their charts would "flee the scene".
I tend to acknowledge my feelings when making a decision. (Which can create it's own set of problems and I have learned to become more objective. Still, I can't take my emotions totally out of an equation.)
Too funny!
"Think Neo from The Matrix, who can bend the laws of physics and overcome the boundaries between humans and AI, versus Agent Smith, who finds the smell of humans revolting."
Us aquarians love humans we are the humanitarians of the zodiac!:)
My first love was a pisces it was a very loving PASSIONATE relationship. Sex was COSMIC. He's the only lover I've spent 10 hours in bed with. We started off as friends than became close friends and then excusive boyfriend/girlfriend hardly spending time apart. We were famous everyone knew us as a couple like a unit. The differences between us two eventualy tore us apart and things got ugly. We broke up got back together. He cheated and I cut him off cold turkey hardest thing to do. Our relationship lasted along time considering we were really young.
Hes wateryness didnt turn me off it was probaly my uranus energy that pushed him away.:(
I do have water in my chart scorpio moon, scorpio jupitor
*jupiter*
Thanks for correcting your spelling ;)
One of the best famous couples is a Pisces-Aquarius match: Joanna Woodward (2/27/1930) and Paul Newman (1/26/1025).
Of course, their charts are a good example of seriously wonderful aspects. Many astrologers use them as an example for synastry analysis. Sun conj moon going both ways. Almost every personal planet between them is an alternating Pisces and Aquarius blend. Also, Paul's venus is in Cappy, which is Joanne's rising sign. He's quoted as saying that he was instantly taken with Joanne (she warmed up to him later). I don't know Paul's rising sign, but I imagine it makes a major compatible aspect with something in Joanne's chart. They've been happily married for almost 50 years next year.

"Think Neo from The Matrix, who can bend the laws of physics and overcome the boundaries between humans and AI, versus Agent Smith, who finds the smell of humans revolting."great metafore!!!!coming across this blog has been a break true in my study of this enigmatic sign and my part this upcoming age of acuarius.
I am a piscis with moon in aries ,romantic,sensitive, and with all the traits of a piscis woman i decided to fal in love with an acuarius man with moon in capricorn, ouchh!!! tough combination.Aquarius beeng a very mental,analitic,constant, honest, and migth y say cold sign,and piscis been more intuitive and emotional,evasive and unstable has made this the moast dificult and involving in all levels, relationship i have ever encounterd myself in. also mentaly stimulating and moast of all cosmic!!!think of it as beeng Alice in wonderland(by Lewis Caroll another water bearer pouring
the waters of knowlage on mankind)he moved me mentaly in away no one else had.
Beeng a piscis it has always been easy to adapt ,I have tried with all my aries might and tough head, to adapt to him , we have to much in comun(we belive we have known each other in past lifes, a soon to prove theory)and i have come to understand him to well,and that much intimacy skares him away.he has broken up with me,he says he will be back ,i know he loves his freedom and i belive he also loves me(aquarius apreciate honesty and i have seen they practice it to)but then again aquarius loves al humanity).
am i one half of a successful Aquarius-Pisces coupling? i am uncertain as to how this will end up but hoping for the best with all my heart .
any word of advise to this piscis in distres?
I am an aquarian and my boyfriend pisces. we are different but yet so alike its mind blowing - its like we re one - whenever i think of him hes there - either he calls or messages me - the same with me - its something incredible- there is something innately in us that transcends oneness. our souls are one and we feel that way.
Xari
This is very interesting, indeed. =]
lol, i really must object your unfair analogies with my sign! agent smith? heaven above! (or everywhere) lol, this is pretty cool, i'm sure: but what of those aquarians who lie with pices and aquarians alike? what if i think reality is bendable, and has only to do with what one will and wont believe, which is to see? or maybe i simply confuse and that's okay, too. in any case, is what you say the way it is, or opposite (or is anything the way it is? or is it or it is what?) for the age of pices is supposedly before that of aquarius, and so what would make since to come first? or are they, in actuality, merged after all? if pisces merges so, why not? an f aquarius detaches, why not from limitations, or doubt, or something less thouchable, and merge after all? or perhaps i will read this over and judge that this is hardly followable. but then again, i might not.
Pisces is hardly followable. Maybe you've got some in you ;)
lol, the chiches! but they are always based on truth, i think. lol, i am a lady of an aquarian sun, libra moon, rising virgo? them apples? they are... they are. lol, but what was i going to even say? this was it; i was not born emotionally detached, i had to learn to be that way, and i clung to it. raised by a leo, i was called a vrybaby, a punk, and plenty of thigs that you simply do not call a child. i mean, other kids would call me crybaby, but a mother? well, i refused to cry, it tok me years. i was the most emotional, sensitive person imaginable. if i ever said an unking word, it would stick with me like hot super glue; i still remember things i did as a very, very small child, that, objectively, are things that are no big deal, and tey are also few, such as three. simple things like, when someone would ask for 'a chip' and i would give one; early selfishness, i suppose. it makes me feel horrible. stupid things.
but you see, i was a very sensitive person, who would cry over others' misfortunes, just as well as my own. i am still more concerned with others' well-being than my own. but perhaps i lacked the streinght to *feel* anymore when i was abused for it for so long? surely, i can be blamed, but i will put it to my youth.
Perhaps you have a strong aspect to Neptune.
I am an Aquarius Sun, Capricorn Moon, with Venus in Pisces. As an aquarius I can say that our intellectual framework is very important to us in that we spend our whole lives consciously working on it, and even look to it for guidance in matters of the heart. We don't so much "adapt" to people and situations like the watery pisces, but calibrate ourselves to them (sometimes awkwardly at first) using our collection of experiences and built-up stores of knowledge, which gives us the capacity to surprise you. By the way, we don't feel affection for people so much as engineer it's outward signs in order to lubricate that social exchange. Affection is still a very real thing for us, but it's more of a figurative bond than a tangible inner warmth that most people seem to experience. At least for me. Sorry, just being honest =) At times I think my lover is the only one who truly understands me! Yes, sex with Pisces can make one forget about the passage of time.
I'm a pisces with the moon in gemini and venus in pisces. I just came out of a relationship with an aquarius sun, aquarius moon, venus in capricorn.
Our relationship was wonderful, we were always remarking to eachother about how we were on the same page, and he told me on many occasions that he felt I was the only person that actually understood him and where he was coming from. I felt he understood me pretty well too, or at least really tried. He was always very patient and understanding. We also had great conversations, as he was extremely intelligent and out there, and I was open to possibility and always curious about what he had to say. He was extremely affectionate and quite open to me about his feelings and such, contrary to so many things I've heard about aquarians. Our relationship just ended because I found out he cheated on me, and the only thing I ever asked of him was to not do that. It wasn't the cheating so much as it was he knew I really hated that and he couldn't respect what I cared about enough to not do it. I fear I'll never find somebody I adored as much as him.
Are you the same Pisces with the Leo rising who is the expert on f'ing over Scorpios?
nope, my rising is cancer and I've never been with a scorpio
OK, well here's what one blogger had to say about Aquarius for what it's worth . . . very cute actually, and I can relate, not being fond of Aquarians myself ;) They are rather cool customers if you ask me, and too easily annoyed.
"Aquarius - The Water-Bearer"
"Intractable, contrary, perverse, unpredictable, unemotional, detached. If you tell a Aquarius the sky is blue, he will swear it's yellow and try to back it up with a bunch of intellectual mumbo-jumbo.
Over-Bearers like to imagine they are smarter than they really are when in fact, they are just weird. They have some of the strangest habits and you never know what to expect from them. They are first-class know-it-all's and if they happen to have the facts mixed up (like they always do) they will argue how right they are and you'll agree just to get them to shut up.
They love the past and the thought of the future and tend to miss out on things because they are thinking and it's usually about nothing. Famous for making empty promises, do not take the word of an Aquarius if you don't have to. They don't do it purposely. They just have so much going on in their minds, that they forget.
They are also perverts and quite deviant and some say it's because of how smart they are but that's crap. They are just perverted. Don't expect any type of emotion or shows of affection from them because you won't get it. You'd be better off fishing with a fork.
When you know one, expect them to tell you lots of useless information and if you allow it, they will drone on. If you end up feeling like you could take that fishing fork and putting it in your eye, you're not alone.
If you want to really aggravate an Aquarius or make them go away, cry buckets or back up your statements with undeniable, proved facts. They aren't built to handle that."
I hope this humours you out of your current state of sadness. There's plenty more fish in the sea . . .
BTW, the gifted blogger who wrote this enlightening essay happens to be a Pisces.
haha, that seemed a bit harsh, but I did actually agree with some of that. I constantly experienced the empty promises thing first hand. Thanks for tryin to cheer me up, it worked for the time being
Don't thank me, thank Sailor Neptune! She's got a good one for every sign in the grand zodiac and she doesn't spare any punches at Pisces either (even though she's a native). Boy there's some real talent on these sites, like who needs to pay a therapist when you can just come on here for a dose of whatever-it-is-you-need-to-get-over-it ;)
am a Piscean having a relationship with an Aquarian man, and I have to laugh my tummy out for the sarcastic definition towards Aquarian there; I experienced most of it.
I agreed too with the extremes you can get from an Aquarian. When he's 'nice' you feel like he's the best guy for you and the relationship is so perfect and great. But when he's in the 'not-nice' mood, you feel like you're trapped with the worst man in the world and wondering why you stay with this man.
This is especially hard for me, a Piscean who is sensitive and value this relationship so much. I feel being taken for granted because most of the time it is me who initiated the meeting and others (I don't ask too much I think; only a once a week meeting and if the situation permits, conversation over messenger/phone/SMS at night after office hour). I think I give him enough freedom, and I don't think it's too much to ask a special favor from him once in a very while -- which turned out to be a disappointment, oh yeah...
I still love him and I think he still has the good characters for this relationship. But I really a need an insight on how can I, a Piscean, work out this relationship with this typical Aquarian man? Appreciate any help.
I am a Pisces Woman, and I dont know what it is about Aquarious Men that attracts me everytime. Tho it really bothers me how they are easily annoyed, and want to be to themselves. Aquarian make the best Bed buddies I have ever encounterd. Only encountering 2 in my 26 yr old life, I find myself always remembering those great times I shared with them. If I could merge Aqaurious Sex with a Taurus I would be in love! lol!
I am a pisces woman in a relationship with an aquarius guy and I'm grappling with his detachment and my need for affection. (we are 3/7/79 3:41pm and 2/7/79 if that makes a difference?). While he is good at "showing" affection, after a year it drives me up the wall that he cannot say he loves me. Furthermore, anytime I try to vocalize (and unfortunately, start to cry) my issues and ask for any words of encouragement/feedback from him he LITERALLY IS SPEECHLESS. I get NOTHING. He cares, and is patient enough and will sit with me until I come up with a solution (once I told him he should ask me to not give up on him yet, and he complied - and to my amazement, cried a bit) but I wonder how long this can go on. I love him, we have fun, the sex is great, and we are otherwise compatible...we just can't talk serious stuff. It may help us that I'm a scientist (and as such, don't quite understand why I want to believe in astrology!), but I need my emotional connection too. Any insight? Thanks
I'm an aquarius girl, and I'm currently dating a pisces, i agree with people who say aquarians dont fall inlove "head over heels".but in my case i dont know how its different. i've loved my this person for 7 whole years and in those years he didnt seem to notice me which, broke my heart eventually and made me believe that i am worth nothing and ugly.but last year we met and he fell inlove with me. i never thought that after 7 years of delusion and heart break i'd be willingly happy to love him again, we are different becouse i love freedom and he is really childish.
and even though he is naggy and so damn sensitive at any thing i say and do, always digging for inner meanings and complaints, i still am attracted to him, and love him madly, but i am afraid that one day i will get fed up of the sensless fighting over little things such as "why did u get out of the house without telling me" or "you dont love me as much as i do".
its been almost a year we are together and he wants me to be with him forever, as a typical pisces always looking for an ever lasting soul-mate. but i'm scared that my aquarius attitude soon will ask for the exit and escape from this web of complex, intence and passionate, relationship.
the happiest day was when he told me he loved me, even though i loved him since i was 11, and he only loved me this year I'm OVERWHELMED by this relationship, he was my first true love and i wouldnt give him up for anything.
any advice for a detached intellectual, who loves an obsessed romantic pisces?
*laughs
i dont know if i like the neo/agent smith anology, but i have so say...
well i'm a pisces with a moon in gemini. and i love an aquarius. it was effortless in the beginning because we were basically curious of each other. so everything was pretty much innocent. i blew him away with my otherwordly sensibilty and he made me felt safe and understood. a very humorous man indeed...and as careful as i was and i really thought i was the only one feeling the love till out of the blue he told me 'i love you' and this apparently must be a big deal because from what im finding out it isnt easy for an aquarius to admit such things? a lot has happened since then, but he dissapeared to only reappear to proclaim leaving me was a big mistake and he felt like he coulndt continie without me.
i love dearly, but i dont know what to think of him time to time. he can be detached and withdrawn and then intimately open up to me about his inner most secrets, his hot then cold attitude would drive me mad, but then i find myself wanting him badly...ugh im very emotional.
he is a cusp i believe a aquarius/pisces
...im not sure how our relationship would unfold but i feel he could change his mind out of the blue and i wont even know what hes up to.
>My first love was a pisces it was a very loving PASSIONATE relationship. Sex was COSMIC. He's the only lover I've spent 10 hours in bed with.
I think my ONLY love was a pisces. And I'll never do it again.
I met her my second week of college and by saophomore year we were, as you said, a famous "unit" as a couple. The emotions were the most intense feelings I'd ever known, the sex was mindblowing and theraputic... We would sometimes stare into each other's eyes, the sparks of our mingling auras and bursting hearts bringing us to actual tears. We hardly needed words.
And that's why it f*king sucked! Somewhere in the third year I started to realize that I was her entire life and that was way too much responsibility. I started being drawn more to going out, mingling and pushing her to have her own life. She always wanted to stay in, burn one down and have a night of sex and conversation.
We were drawn in different directions. I don't need to tell you how it all ended, but I lost a best friend in the process too.
I won't say it's impossible, my fellow aquas. But unless you two are EXCEPTIONALLY well matched, in ways that go beyond mere love, I'd be incredibly careful.
Oh yeah, and for the record, I really do find the smell of humans revolting.
Just the smell tho, all the other stuff about them is so adorable! With the little cars and the little iPods and the status and the vegans. Awwww
I am an Aquarian girl married to a Pisces guy. I have to say that I always hear that I am not affectionate. I tell him I love him all the time but I am definately not touchy feely. I am very analytical and I thought the agent smith comment was hilarious.
I sadly must say that although I have been in my relationship for 4 years and married for 2 is has been a very volatile relationship. We either get a long great or can fight over the stupidest things.
Also Pices lie for no reason whatsoever and that does not make sense to me. they never say what they mean. Honesty and trust don't seem to be high on their list. Of course this might be just my man.
