The Aquarius woman, Latin for "Water Bearer," is an air sign born between January 20 and February 18. The Pisces man, Latin for "Fish," is a water sign born between February 19 and March 20.
Aquarius women are generally perceived as go-getters who communicate efficiently; they are altruistic, though somewhat detached from their feelings. Pisces men are also driven; they are big dreamers who are much more in touch with their sensitive side.

While it appears at first glance that these differing traits complement each other, they can make or break a relationship between an Aquarius woman and a Pisces man. If the two signs are committed to making it work, they must be patient with each other.

They must also be curious enough about one another to learn how to navigate their dynamic. Through their bond, they can learn to be more in touch with parts of themselves they tend to shy away from; for Aquarius women, it tends to be their emotions. For Pisces men, it's reality.

The Compatibility of an Aquarius Woman and a Pisces Man
Aquarius women are known for their rebellious nature and clearly defined sense of identity. They need as much creative freedom as possible to forge their own paths, as they are individualistic and incredibly adventurous.
Some might define Aquarius women as extroverted free spirits with a certain peculiar air. Additionally, they are non-materialistic and can be satisfied with small sweet gestures.

They are fiercely compassionate and devoted to their loved ones, though not without keeping them at arm's length. One of the most noted qualities of an Aquarius woman is her emotional detachment when it comes to close relationships.

She extends this behavior to romantic relationships, which presents a challenge if she finds herself liking or falling for a Pisces man. Pisces men are often quiet, gentle beings with a tolerating nature.
They are more introverted than Aquarius women and are known for wearing their hearts on their sleeves and being slow to anger. Pisces men are the dreamers of the 12 Zodiacs, with the drive to realize their vision.
They are seen as spiritual and intuitive individuals who are deeply empathetic to other people's needs — Aquarius women are also pretty altruistic in this way. With these qualities in mind, the relationship between an Aquarius woman and a Pisces man can be profound.

Aquarius being a spontaneous adventurer and Pisces being an intuitive dreamer will not only liven their romance, but it will also deepen their union. The two will stimulate each other mentally, which is said to be the most vital point of their bond.
It is worth mentioning that Aquarius women prefer to establish a good friendship with someone before moving things to the next level. If they are open to a romance with a Pisces man, he can gradually nudge her into being in touch with her feelings. However, this could pose a roadblock in the relationship.

Potential Challenges and Complexities in Their Relationship
As dreamers, Pisces men need all the support they can get, especially from their partners. Aquarius women can certainly provide this support, although not without being realistic if their partner's dreams are edging toward fantasy.
Aquarius women are straight-talkers, and their bluntness can be harsh to the Pisces man. However, if he is willing to consider her perspective — provided she shares it mindfully — it can help him make attainable goals.
In some cases, though, an Aquarius woman might not have the patience to ground an over-eager dreamer, especially if he lacks the drive to go after his vision. Another issue that may arise is her tendency to be cold and emotionally unavailable when upset or overwhelmed.

She can also be adamant about being right and will persist in having the last word. This can cause much tension between her and her Pisces man. And although he is slow to anger, he struggles to calm down immediately once he shows this emotion overtly.
The Pisces man can also be clingy at times, and this may push an Aquarius woman away. She prefers to use her time however she pleases and doesn't like when that autonomy is imposed. However, it's also possible for her to neglect the Pisces man's need for intimacy. Still, their quarrels don't have to be the end of it all.

Aquarius Women and Pisces Men could learn a Lot from Each Other
The stars also allow them the possibility of learning from one another as married partners. A value they both uphold is honesty and accountability; they are unlikely to make promises they can't keep, and so they avoid such commitments.

Once mutual trust is established, Aquarius women and Pisces men listen attentively to one another. This is partly because the Pisces man's humility makes the Aquarius woman feel safe enough to let her guard down.
It's this humility that allows him to appreciate her quirks. Their dynamic also translates into their sex life, which is livened by the Aquarius woman's spontaneity, and the Pisces man's openness to new things.
