What might be some of the key differences in Virgo and Aqua male behavior when they are interested in someone? I am a newbie, but from what I've gathered so far, it seems that they can both withdraw when they are interested romantically in someone, and that they can both run hot and cold. Thanks for any info.

I find signs that are quincunx are alike in a lot of ways but don't really get along that well. They don't seem to experience long lasting relationships. Sparks fly at first only to be replaced by resentment and a feeling of being burdened by each other. Maybe it's prime example of people who are too alike to be together? Same with Libra and Pisces. They can be together but they experience friction. So, I guess this means there wouldn't be a whole lot of difference between Virgo and Aqua men except the Virgo men could be grumpier and the Aqua would, at least, attempt to be social. Also, Aqua are more set in their ways since they are a fixed sign while Virgo is apt to be more unstable.IP: Logged |

SSS: you beat me to the punch. I was going to say Aqua would be more stubborn and Virgo more erratic. I'd also venture that Aqua will be more general in their relations with people and Virgo more specific. Aqua is more apt to see the big picture, while Virgo the details. Both will want to be able to connect on a mental level. Due to other planetary placements, there may or may not be passion at first, but without that mental connection, it will not last. I'm Virgo and have had several relationships with Aqua. They fascinate me totally. But February born Aqua fall in my 6th house. I should keep my eye out for a January born Aqua...5th house.

I know one long term lady Aqua/ male Virgo marriage but it hasn't been the warmest one I have ever seen. Both are equally quirky and weird though. I can clearly see how they have some basic relatedness going down but the Aqua sun is completely more social, just a bit on the controlling side. Virgos, as a rule, are not controlling and kinda withdrawn, with basic communication skills for passing and processing information, their main function in life. Aqua will make up for that by going overboard. Like with Scorpio planets, they will attempt to control their partners. Sometimes, Aqua will try to not only control them as much as they can, but everyone they know. I have noticed this particular quirk with the sign. They like to think they have the upper hand on everyone else.

The irony is Aqua is freedom loving...but apparently only their own freedom. Our Sag Mars is pretty freedom loving too and Leo Venus controlling. I suppose if there's mutual respect the result would be a free but loyal couple...otherwise a lot of friction. IP: Logged |

That's so true! They resent control of themselves by others but they like the feeling of others deciding what to do based on what they have told them. It is co ruled by Saturn so Aqua is somewhat authoritarian but in a fixed way. With Leo and Sag there's a lot of fun loving adventuring. That's how I see the combo.IP: Logged |

Both Virgo and Aquarius have a scientific bent of mind. Except one focuses on perfection of analysis to details and the other on how the big picture manifests itself Universally.IP: Logged |

Not exactly sure. I know both signs pretty well. Both would talk to you I would think. I can see the value in the comments about Aqua maybe trying to control the other person. It might come down to the kinds of tests they put you through. Aqua will want someone that stubbornly likes them. Virgo will want someone that's flexible enough to go with the flow. Strangely, they both might give you erratic behavior in testing you. Jimmy Fallon is a Virgo, and Justin Timberlake is an Aquarius. IP: Logged |

Uh.... I don't think Aqua is controlling. I think everyone wants others to act according to their ideas. But Aries is Aqua's third house, so Aqua is very aggressive about expressing their ideas, not so much controlling others. IP: Logged |

Take it from someone who knows. Aqua can be controlling.

I dated one who told me when and how much to eat and what to and not to wear...and I really don't think I need too much help in those areas. Another continually told me what the right thing to think and say was. Two others also had the 'gift' of what I call 'un-personing'...the ability to make you not exist even when you're right there. So...uh...ok. IP: Logged |

How do you figure out what month/decan of a sign fall into what house? I'm a feb aqua sun with a virgo moon. This convo fascinates me...please continue everyone! IP: Logged |

Besides Virgo Sun, I'm a Virgo riser at 5° 15' and my 6th house begins at 7° Aquarius 50', which is usually around January 29th. No decans are involved really, although my 5th house would more or less correspond with Capricorn and the first decan of Aquarius. IP: Logged |

Virgos are constantly analysing, criticising, looking things over and over again, refining, applying, are practical and are like to offer service. They live in the now and exist on a mundane plane. They can also take over your life if you aren't careful and try to implement structures in your life that they think is to your benefit but often, it doesn't fit what you need - says me, Aquarius, whose mum in law is a Virgo. Oh, seriously the few that I know are obsessed with health and nutrition. Aquarians are less practical, living in ideals and big pictures and live with the promise of the future or constantly looking to the future. Emotions are not considered and often converted to ideals, so rejecting ideals is very offensive to Aquarians. Aquarians do like to help out but they do not serve anyone. They are also more distant, objective too. As to control, the ego is weak in Aquarius and therefore boundaries aren't delineated. It's as if Aquarius has all the structure of Saturn taken away and it has to be rebuilt in another form, Saturn again. Aquarius is like a wonky Eastern European country trying to find itself after the fall of communism. We know however, this structure will never return as Pisces decides it will become one with the world again and does not seek structure. In Aquarius, this is not known so Aquarians are really trying to find out who they are by keeping distant, staying objective, being experimental and logical and controlling situations and others. Yet, despite Aquarians not knowing themselves very well, they do oddly know a lot because they are a mature sign and use logic or are in simply intuitive. Often Aquarians can know best, probably because of the distance and observation it keeps. I can't explain this conflict in the personality though.

And now my Sag friend is engaged to an Aqua and I swear she is a textbook Aqua. I didn't know for sure because I don't know that many irl. Now I know two who act pretty much the same, the married lady Aqua and now the fiancee of my friend. I have one Aqua cousin and he's kinda opinionated and fixed in what he thinks and believes but not really too controlling that I can tell. He is kinda remote/workaholic type and a major techie who took a test to get an engineering certificate.Now, I am thinking there might be textbook Aquas which differ from the remote, more Uranian techie type Aqua (my cousin is not what I would call controlling but is definitely the distant, techie type that loves gadgets, motorcycles, trucks and riding lawn mowers.) The textbook Aqua is more controlling and tries to manipulate social situations, families, partners and is more interested int social stuff than machinery and gadgets. Then there could some who are a mixture of both, maybe? IP: Logged |

23: you point out something that's interesting. Virgos and Aquarius are both attempting some sort of improving...of others and/or the world. Both operate from a base of ideals...Sag does this as well...although I don't think they're bent on improving.And of course everyone has emotions, but with the Virgo & Aqua energy, emotions tend to take a back seat. Having Cancer Moon, I'd be an exception to that. "As to control, the ego is weak in Aquarius and therefore boundaries aren't delineated." At first glance that seems counterintuitive, but then it makes sense. So if/when Aqua is controlling, it's not because of ego (like it might be with Leo or Scorpio) but because they are more people than person oriented...what's good for them is good for the collective.

Libra isn't really controlling and the sun is weaker in Libra than Aqua. I think it's more about Aqua being a fixed sign.IP: Logged |

Mcmlxix- also, Aqua sees itself as part of the collective too. There is a confusion in Aqu as to where boundaries end due to weak ego. They have fear of what is out there because they don't know themselves and so, they attach themselves to groups but yet won't accept completely they are another like Pisces. They won't merge. This is what I mentioned before about Aquarius not understanding that barriers can be rebuilt after their destruction. You have a cold, wide space with no clothes on at all (no Saturn), you are in it and you try to latch on to the people floating around you collectively to get some warmth, almost a weird blurred boundaries scenario - Safety in numbers but not too close because they can molest you. And that's why signs like especially Scorpio are so difficult to deal with as Aquarians. They want you to merge with you and you simply don't know what you have to merge with another, you're still trying to find yourself and they choke you to death with intensity, closeness, lack of space and total control of you. And remember, all these signs have defences except Aquarius (and Pisces) and so an Aquarian, the only defence is distance, outwitting and control.In relation to Sag, they learn solely through exploration and examinations of human systems (such as philosophy, law, canonical law and theology) to understand the world around. They operate solely in the ideals of man but Aquarius is broader, it is in nature, logic and science and oddly, an attempt to defeat natural processes or evolution through human equality, rights and political correctness. It learns about the processes it wants to defeat, which can quite often lead to dark predicaments like 1984 or War of the World (cf killing in the name of God which is Sag). Virgo on the other hand, don't looks at things like this. Not to be demeaning, but they're more interested in developing a higher functioning vacuum cleaner that can be used now. IP: Logged |

That's the fundamental difference between the two. Aquarius likes socializing and goes where the people are, calls them up on the phone. Virgos tend to go to work, come home, sleep. The social energy isn't as abundant.Astrologers say Virgo is the sign closest to the principle of working but it sure seems like all the Virgos I know are exhausted by work. Other signs come home refreshed, ready to party, Virgo just wants to collapse and not appear until morning then it's back to work.

I'm a Virgo with 11th house Moon too. I don't know that I'd say I had Aqua traits per se but rather more Uranian...which is in a stellium. IP: Logged |

Every Virgo I know isn't obsessed with work either. Although, I prefer to do work at night rather than morning because I am more active at night. I think it's my Gemini Moon. Oh and my Aqua friend is not of the social type. (he has a Pisces Moon too) He actually is more withdrawn and his type of fun is games with friends rather than conversating. He likes going out, but not for socializing, but more for adventure. He always says he wishes he can be in a survival game. (kinda like Hunger Games) I said to him, I bet if you were actually given the chance, you'd be too scared and think twice to take it. (not very supporting but I couldn't help it) He said he will do it if he had the chance. I'm rather skeptical on that.

Cool. Well I don't think I have a stellium with Uranus being a part of it. I mean, my Moon is in the 11th House in Aquarius's Decan as well. I also have Sun trine Uranus. (more significant stuff, but I'm not listing all of it, lol) What are the Uranian traits you said you have? IP: Logged |

Uranus-Jupiter-Mercury conjucntion Very independent, unpredictable, eccentric...or as my friends say the most off the wall person they've known...and coming up with new connections between things. Think way too fast that can cause me to get tongue tripped up. Usually rebellious...and only because I can be. Misfit...but Lilith is in my 11th too. Uranus in the 2nd, and my attitude towards material things is that they're burdens that tie my down. IP: Logged |
