Let’s take I’m nice and easy, it’s going to be so easy to fall in love.
Here we have a cosmic match with great potential romantically, and in addition, it also works very well as a long-distance, age-gap, or same-sex relationship. Not only are these both air signs, but the ruler of Gemini, Mercury, is exalted in Aquarius, which means Gemini feels uniquely attracted to and attached to the Aquarian energy. Aquarius, of course, finds fellow air sign Gemini a delightful and charming companion, and they are likely to immediately strike up a friendship which will soon lead to romance.
As you would expect from two air signs, particularly one ruled by Mercury, they are great at communicating and certainly can bring each other a breath of fresh air. There’s something very enchanting about this relationship and both feel enlivened by the connection. There is a spark, and they will enthusiastically respond to each other as companions and romantic partners.
The fixed nature of Aquarius helps stabilize and bring much-needed security to Gemini without containing them, and Aquarius enjoys the fact that Gemini, as a Mercury-ruled sign, is a thinker, a good communicator, and has a reasonable and very liberal approach to life.
This astrological relationship has a 75% chance of success.
Romantic Potential
Gemini certainly suits Aquarius romantically. Aquarius enjoys a fairly unpredictable partner — in fact, both these signs can be quite erratic in their behaviour, as they are both free spirits who enjoy pursuing whims, can change their minds, and love to experience new things. Gemini loves the fact that Aquarius is rather unusual and they appear to Gemini to have many different facets to their nature and a rather adventurous approach to life.
Gemini is not threatened by Aquarius because they are so reasonable, like to work things out verbally, and avoid unpleasantness. They are a fairly diplomatic sign of the zodiac. Why these two get on so well in terms of dating and romance is because they are very social and they enjoy being with people and function well within groups and organisations.
Both zodiac signs have a fairly wide, eclectic group of friends, and therefore they’ll really enjoy mingling in each other’s social circles. They love entertaining in their home and also going out and about — so all the boxes are ticked romantically.
They are not the most nostalgic of couples; it’s not necessarily a pair who will spend many cosy evenings by a log fire or swinging on a hammock staring into the sunset. They prefer to be active, and because their minds are always on the go, they will always be planning entertaining dates.
These star signs love communicating on social media, and they both enjoy technology a lot — that’s why it’s a great match for couples who are very active online and on apps.
Sexual Attraction Between Gemini and Aquarius
Now, between a Mercury and a Uranus-ruled sign, sex has to be spontaneous, quite thrilling, and there’s not really a big emphasis on foreplay. Sex life is not necessarily the most important factor in this relationship — this is a bond that really focuses more on camaraderie, companionship, and enjoying life together.
When it comes to sex, Aquarius rather enjoys the fact that Gemini is versatile, a thinker in the bedroom, and someone who is perhaps not too set in their ways — they can surprise them. However, sometimes Aquarius can crave a more sensual sign, someone who is more risqué and adventurous in the bedroom, and Gemini can be quite cautious sexually and slow to open up.
Gemini will have to work hard to find out what Aquarius wants and perhaps move out of some of their comfort zones sexually to make it work. For Gemini, they need someone who can make them feel secure, loved, and very much needed in love. Aquarius has the ability to do this, but they must make sure Gemini feels extremely comfortable, totally accepted, and seen, to bring out the best in them sexually.
The key to success is that both really need to understand these factors and then work hard at developing a sexual rhythm that’s not too conservative and contains a little bit of adventure.
Friendship Between Gemini and Aquarius
Now we’re talking — this is where the engine room of the relationship is. It’s within communication: talking about interesting new things, sharing experiences, and having an active social life together that they thrive together. These star signs are very compatible when it comes to their interests and values in life.
They both tend to be fairly open-minded and ready to embrace new social experiences. They like meeting new people and enjoy having a wide group of friends they can connect and socialise with. However, both of these signs do have a tender-hearted side, and therefore they will choose companions wisely. They are known to many, but they don’t allow themselves to be *known* by many.
What can be special about this friendship is that, after a few months, they really begin to open up and explore emotionally with each other. With time they can nurture the talents and the core
of each other’s being in a way that is very sensitive to the vulnerabilities of each. This makes for a potentially beautiful friendship.
Long-Term Potential and Marriage
This cosmic pair are often very successful in marriage, but they may not necessarily have a marriage that’s everyone’s cup of tea. Aquarius are rebels and they can be quite eccentric, embracing many different ways of living. Gemini are a highly adaptable sign who can cope in many different circumstances, and that means this marriage can thrive even when it is long-distance, involves different cultures, has unusual working hours, or is a same-sex scenario.
This marriage will be fairly flexible and durable simply because both can embrace circumstances most people would find challenging, because they are slightly more open-minded, particularly together. This may be a couple who don’t end up having children; they both prize their freedom and may be so busy living life and doing new things that children never really come into the picture. A strong desire to have a family may not be a feature of this relationship, and both may be totally happy with that.
The one problem with this relationship is growing apart. Sometimes they have too many competing interests or dilute the relationship by running in so many different directions and having so many friends that they fail to nurture each other. This relationship thrives if they have powerful relationship rituals — so that they know that, regularly each week, they sit down, have a meal together, spend an evening having important conversations, and do regular activities that bond them. That is the key. It’s okay for them to have a lot of freedom, but the relationship rituals must keep the connection strong.
Strengths and Challenges
In terms of strengths, it’s communication, logic, and shared values. They both tend to perceive the world in the same way and will seek to work through problems using information and logic. Neither sign is likely to get angry or lose their temper with the other because they simply don’t arouse aggression in each other.
These signs are talkative and enjoy technology, which makes the relationship ideal if they spend a lot of time apart, because they will continually find creative and exciting ways of communicating online and through technological media. They will embrace each other’s friends and interests, and they don’t tend to compete. This relationship doesn’t suffer from much jealousy or competitiveness.
They are different enough to appreciate their unique personalities and characters without clashing, and the differences mean they don’t tread on each other’s toes or stand in each other’s way very often.
The relationship may lack some passion — Uranus and Mercury together are not the most emotionally excitable planets. It’s really a relationship built on being reasonable, on activities, and on shared values. Sex may not be the most important thing to them, although if worked on, it can become very satisfying — but one wonders if they will have the focus to make it as good as it could be.
Aquarius may sometimes find Gemini indecisive and weak — they are troubled by Gemini’s inability to make up their mind and could perceive them as a little bit flighty and unserious. Sometimes Aquarius wishes Gemini would be more definite and take more leadership because Aquarius likes a partner who shows a bit of bite.
Over time, Gemini can begin to find Aquarius too set in their ways and a little dogmatic. Gemini wants someone who maintains a spirit of adventure and is more pioneering, and Aquarius has a slightly conservative touch to their character which troubles Gemini. Aquarius thrives on passion and drama, and since this relationship doesn’t have much of that, it may not be stimulating enough for Aquarius sexually and emotionally.
Aquarius kind of likes to see passion because it makes them feel loved — sometimes they feel that negative attention is better than no attention, and they may not feel Gemini gives them enough attention. Gemini may feel that Aquarius is sometimes too aloof or in their head and that they are always slipping away. Sometimes Aquarius are not very generous with their money or time, and Gemini can find them a little bit cold. Gemini doesn’t deal well with coldness as it makes them terribly insecure and neurotic.
Final Verdict
I’m confident that this pair will be great friends and have a wonderful romance — that romance has about a 75% chance of leading to marriage. However, even if they do break up, it should be amicable, and they should remain friends, which is another reason why this relationship is low risk. There’s very unlikely to be animosity between these two.
Not only is communication good and they understand each other innately, they are also not a couple liable to get into ugly arguments or foster animosity between them. They are fairly generous and don’t become bitter.
One of the downfalls of the relationship is that they may drift apart simply because they don’t always invest enough energy into developing the emotional and sexual side of the relationship. Another problem is that Aquarius aren’t always comfortable with the more fence-sitting, restless side of Gemini. Aquarius wants to know where they stand, and sometimes a little bit of passion and drama makes Aquarius feel truly loved and appreciated.
Gemini can sometimes perceive Aquarius as being unloving or perhaps lacking empathy and they may feel Aquarius minimises their emotional needs or isn’t really in tune with them. They perhaps need a partner with more warmth, someone who spontaneously sweeps them off their feet — and that isn’t always the nature of Aquarius once a relationship settles down.
This relationship is improved when either has an earthy Moon or when one has a Scorpio or Sagittarius Ascendant. Second-decan Gemini get on best with Aquarius, and third-decan Aquarius get on best with Gemini.
Any star sign match is, of course, modified greatly by the Ascendant, Moon, and Venus signs — which will give more bearing on affectionate, sexual, and spiritual compatibility.
