Although you approach problems and ideas from different perspectives, you have a good mental rapport. Virgo focuses on specific details, and prefers to specialise in a certain area, while Aquarius takes a wider, more global view and looks for interrelationships in a large system, without as much focus on any particular area of specialisation. Virgo is more concerned with effective and precise application of plans, and helps Aquarius to practically apply ideas. You make a good team in social or intellectual pursuits. Your relationship may be a bit cool or formal, however, and hopefully there are other astrological factors (as described elsewhere in this report) to provide warmth, affection and romantic or sexual attraction.
A major difference in your temperaments is that Aquarius, deep down, is rebellious toward authority and rather indifferent to convention and tradition. Aquarius has a taste for excitement and needs to experiment and shake things up once in a while. Virgo is more careful, and feels much more comfortable and safe following a secure, tried-and-true path. Virgo loves order, while Aquarius disrupts order so that something new can happen.
Also, Virgo is more introspective and serious about self-improvement than Aquarius, who is interested in social improvement, but is often out of touch with their own feelings and inner life.
Lively exchanges of ideas are common between the two of you. Fortunately, you understand each other well, but unfortunately you sometimes have opposite opinions and perspectives on an issue. Despite your differences, you work together very well in practical matters, planning, organising, developing or communicating ideas, and your differing view points are not likely to be a serious problem.
As a couple, you will have many unusual experiences, and a lot of friends who are unique, interesting, creative, and quite different from one another. You could gather a "family" around you that is quite unlike a traditional or "normal" family, including adopted relatives and close friends. A certain openness, acceptance of deviance from the norm, and willingness to learn from unexpected sources will be essential in this relationship. Being able to flow with change and live in the present moment will be necessary too, as there is a certain, ongoing movement in your relationship that precludes settling down to any established routine for very long.
There is a magnetic, rather intense attraction between you, and it is very likely that you will go through many intense challenges and emotionally powerful experiences together, even if your relationship is not a permanent one.
This is a "hot" relationship. Sexual and physical attraction is strong, tending to lead to hot pursuit of each other. Subtlety is lacking and one, or both, of you may feel your approach to sexuality is too aggressive or insensitive. You also enjoy competing with each other and working hard together. Competitive sports, games, and outdoor activities are good outlets. You must strive to avoid conflict because the aggressive quality of your relationship can easily flare into anger and hostility.
Issues such as tidiness and neatness at home, use of abusive or foul language, choice of foods, tastes in music and decor, approaches towards raising children, etc. come to the fore. At times you will come to an impasse and feel that you cannot come to an agreement on these issues. Aquarius, in particular, may become very frustrated by some of Virgo's deeply ingrained, personal habits. If your ethnic backgrounds or upbringings are very different, this problem can be severe. If both of you can be tolerant, open-minded, accepting of shortcomings in your mate, and willing to learn new attitudes, you can turn potentially frustrating situations into opportunities to mature and grow emotionally.
Aquarius's philosophical, political, and religious beliefs will undergo some major changes as a result of this relationship, particularly if the relationship is a long-term, serious one. In trying to adapt to Virgo's views, Aquarius discovers the value in new perspectives and ideas that previously were not considered.
Virgo often limits, burdens, or frustrates Aquarius without intending to or realising it. There is a conflict here between Virgo's needs for security, stability, and order versus Aquarius's desire for freedom, mobility, and expansiveness. How much, and in what ways, you spend money is probably a particularly thorny issue for you. Virgo is more careful and restrictive or disapproving of Aquarius's more relaxed, extravagant, or liberal approach.
Also, Virgo often seeks to control or dominate Aquarius, and Aquarius may even take a subordinate role in the relationship for a time, accepting Virgo's "discipline". Over time, however, Aquarius may find Virgo's subtle (or not so subtle!) criticism or constraints to be devitalising and draining. And Aquarius, on the other hand, can make Virgo feel like a perpetual wet blanket or miser. Working together or going into business as equal partners is unlikely to work out well for you. It's best if you can respect one another's differing approaches and not seek to impose your own values or styles on one another.
