Aries and Aquarius compatibility
Aries and Aquarius: an easy, independent match that needs a little more warmth.
This reading uses your Sun signs only: their elements, modes and the angle between them. Here's why.
Why: Aries is cardinal fire and Aquarius is fixed air, 60° apart (a sextile), so air feeds fire: Aquarius's ideas give Aries a cause, and Aries gets them moving.
