Aries and Pisces in love
In love there's magnetism and strong emotions: Fire wants action, Water wants depth. They can ignite each other or hurt each other; the key is minding how things are said.
In friendship and work
In friendship and work, one starts and the other adjusts along the way: a good team for projects that change.
Why they get along this way
Element — Steam and transformation. Fire heats Water and Water can put out Fire: magnetism and intensity, with the challenge of regulating the temperature.
Rhythm. Aries is cardinal — inicia — and Pisces is mutable — adapta. Different rhythms: what one doesn't do, the other can.
Polarity. Aries is Yang and Pisces is Yin: one goes outward and the other inward, and that balances them or pulls them apart.
Rulers. Aries is ruled by Mars (action and desire); Pisces, by Neptune and Jupiter (dreams and sensitivity; expansion and meaning).
What each one brings
Aries: initiative and leadership, courage and energy and enthusiasm.
Pisces: intuition, empathy and creativity.
Where they can clash
Aries: impatience, impulsiveness and a tendency toward confrontation.
Pisces: escapism, idealism and dependence.
How to look after the bond
Give yourselves time to get to know each other: what seems incompatible at first is often exactly what the other has to teach.
