Aries and Scorpio share a traditional ruler, Mars, and you can tell. Both are intense and neither gives up. But Aries fights in the open and Scorpio fights in silence. It's a magnetic, difficult pairing, with more storm than calm.
How you fit together
You're very different and it's hard to fit together. There are no huge clashes, but there are lots of small adjustments. It works when you both do your part.
Aries and Scorpio in love
Aries feels things in the moment and lets them out. Scorpio keeps them, turns them over inside and never forgets. Aries wants freedom to move around, and Scorpio needs to know the commitment is total. That mix produces jealousy, suspicion and power struggles. Aries feels watched and Scorpio doesn't trust so much lightness. Nobody wants to lay down their weapons first.
If the relationship makes it, it's because you've both decided to trust. Scorpio brings depth and absolute loyalty, and Aries brings sincerity and freshness. Aries has to understand that with Scorpio, words carry weight, and Scorpio has to see that Aries's frankness hides no ulterior motive. Talking straight, without power games, is the only thing that makes all this intensity add up instead of wearing you down.
The attraction is strong, almost magnetic. There's passion on both sides and intimacy can be very intense. The risk is that it ends up being the only place where you understand each other.
As friends
On the same side, you're a formidable support. If you clash, Aries forgets by the next day and Scorpio remembers for years, so it's better to clear up misunderstandings right away, before they grow.
At work
Neither of you lacks tenacity or ambition. Aries attacks head on and Scorpio prefers strategy. Set shared goals and don't compete for control.
What brings you together
- A magnetism other people notice.
- Courage and grit times two.
- Once there's trust, your loyalty runs deep.
Where you clash

- Scorpio won't let go of a grudge.
Your elements
Water and fire attract and fear each other. There's passion, but also steam. Fire feels water putting it out, and water feels fire burning it.
Your modalities
One proposes and the other sustains. It works if the cardinal sign respects the fixed sign's pace and the fixed sign lets itself be moved now and then.
Choose trust again every day, even when it's hard.
