There is no star sign that is more unpredictable and mysterious than Aquarius. They see life and love differently than anyone else. It’s not unusual for an Aquarian to be considered odd or eccentric, but it is an Aquarians unique ideas and views on the world that make them so intriguing. They tend to feel strongly about their beliefs, and are often actively involved in areas where they feel they can make a difference to humanity.

An Aquarius is usually brimming with ideas to change the world. Often people consider them to be dreamers, but because Aquarians are astute thinkers, they can express their vision in such a way that their ideas are conveyed in a believable and acceptable way. 

Someone born under the sign of Aquarius will certainly be acutely aware of the opposite sex. Generally they will feel more comfortable bestowing compliments than receiving them however. Aquarius is a social star sign, but they aren’t inclined to get involved with people just for the sake of it. They will generally only find their heart won over by someone who has an understanding nature. They tend to have a strong fear of romantic rejection, and as such can be unduly passive in pursuing a relationship.

Aquarians are very willing to enjoy the physical side of love, but only if the intellectual side isn’t forced to take a back seat. They will find it difficult to maintain a relationship with someone passionate, unless that person is able to think about the other areas of the relationship as well.

Aquarian relationships are best when they are shared with someone who accepts their freedom and individuality. People born under the sign of Aquarius desire someone who is compatible intellectually and with whom they can discuss deep ideas and concepts, rather than just day-to-day trivialities.

Gemini and Libra are both star signs that work well with Aquarius. They can sometimes work well with Leo (since both star signs hold high ideals), and also Aries or Sagittarius.
