Aquarius and Pisces share idealism, compassion for others and a wish for a better world. But one lives it through the mind and the other through the heart. There's a lot of kindness in this couple, and you need to learn to meet halfway.
How you fit together
You sit side by side on the wheel, yet you see the world in very different ways. One of you begins where the other ends, and depending on the day, that either enriches you or throws you off.
Aquarius and Pisces in love
Generosity is what brings you together. You both want to help, and you're drawn to social causes, spirituality and anything out of the ordinary. Aquarius brings original ideas and a wide view, and Pisces brings empathy and imagination. There's a lot of tolerance between you and very little urge to judge. You can spend hours talking about how the world should be and feel you share something important.
The problem is how you love. Pisces needs closeness, hugs and to be understood without having to explain. Aquarius needs space and experiences emotions from more of a distance, often trying to understand them instead of feeling them. To Pisces, Aquarius can seem distant or checked out, and Aquarius feels Pisces is asking for a level of devotion that's suffocating. If you don't talk about it, one of you keeps waiting and the other drifts away, and neither really knows why. Naming what each of you needs gets you halfway there.
Intimacy has something dreamy and different about it. For it to work, Aquarius has to get involved with their heart and Pisces has to respect the times Aquarius needs space.
As friends
As friends you do really well. You share ideals, long conversations and the ability to accept people as they are.
