They form a quincunx: they share neither element nor rhythm, and need constant adjustments.

What is love like between Aries and Scorpio?

Fire and water make steam: there is attraction and intensity, but also the risk of one putting the other out if they do not respect each other’s rhythm. An Aries loves in a hurry and without beating around the bush, and needs to feel the relationship is moving forward. A Scorpio loves intensely and completely, and needs absolute loyalty.

And friendship?

One brings courage, the other sensitivity, and both learn from what they lack. An Aries is the friend who suggests the plan and gets everyone going; a Scorpio is the friend of a chosen few, but for life, who keeps secrets like no one else.

And working together?

A cardinal sign starts things and a fixed sign keeps them going: a good working pair, if the first does not grow impatient with the second’s pace. An Aries kicks off projects with energy and hates waiting for approvals; a Scorpio is strategic and persistent and gets to the bottom of things.

Where might they stumble?

The challenge is missing each other: one asks for what the other does not know how to give, and neither is to blame. An Aries can run over the other person’s pace when impatient; a Scorpio can become suspicious or possessive when feeling insecure.

One piece of advice for both

Ask more and guess less: what is obvious to one is strange to the other.
