Aries is more decisive and direct, but
also somewhat more naive and simple (psychologically speaking) than
Pisces is. You two can balance one another nicely. Aries depends on
Pisces' sensitivity and gentleness to soothe, heal, and provide a
sanctuary from the world of competing and achieving. Pisces, on the
other hand, admires and probably needs Aries' forthrightness, honesty,
and willingness to act boldly.
Pisces is more of a giver, and can be
very self-denying, while Aries is self-absorbed, and can unintentionally
take advantage of Pisces' generosity. Aries also lacks tact and subtlety
sometimes, and inadvertently wounds Pisces' tender feelings.
Your instinctive emotional responses and
emotional needs are so different that quite often you rub each other the
wrong way or cause offence to one another unintentionally.
Aries has an eager, active, take-charge
attitude that is somewhat abrasive to Pisces, who is gentle, receptive,
very sensitive and rather passive.
Aries is direct and confrontational, and
can be quite irritated with Pisces' vagueness, over-sensitivity, and
tendency to seek escape or avoid conflict. Aries is somewhat volatile
and needs to express anger and other emotions rather than bottling them
up. Once released, Aries forgets these outbursts rather quickly, but
Pisces is often left feeling hurt or upset by the disruption. Pisces
craves peace, tranquility, and a sort of idyllic environment.
Also, Pisces has a strong need for
closeness and sympathy, and is often very dependent on loved ones, while
Aries prefers to be (or at least acts) self-reliant and independent.
Pisces is extremely flexible and adaptable and often unfocused or
unclear about personal direction, and Aries may dominate or take
advantage of Pisces' willingness to give and bend.
Being together will bring many changes
into your lives. You'll become more progressive, more open to
experimentation and new ideas, more adventurous and less conventional.
You'll foster one another's freedom and autonomy, and develop a
relationship that may look odd to other people, but which truly fits
your own needs and authentic selves. What may have seemed radical or too
far out to you, now will become quite easy for you to accept.
The more the two of you cooperate with
the impulse towards newness and "nowness" (letting go of the
need to maintain the familiar, or cling to preconceived expectations),
the better and more smooth your relationship will be. One of the
purposes of the two of you coming together is to open you both to new
ways of expressing yourselves and understanding the world.
Vigorous debates and intellectual
sparring will inevitably play a key role in your relationship. What you
might try to convey tactfully in other circumstances, you will state
directly and unequivocally with each other. This can lead to numerous
arguments and disputes, not so much due to deep differences of opinion
but simply due to the way you both communicate with one another.
Both of you are warmly affectionate,
passionate, expressive creatures and you need the flame of romance to be
burning brightly in your lives in order to be happy. Physical
love-making is extremely important to both of you, an essential aspect
of your vitality and self-expression. Fortunately, you have in one
another a companion who is as ardent as you are.
This is a passionate relationship, but
also a rather aggressive and combative one at times. Sex may be a bit
rough, crude, or insensitive as well. You stimulate each other both in
sexual and non-sexual ways, but you are also inclined to irritate each
other. As long as you don't end up fighting and competing with each
other, you can accomplish a great deal together. However, the
aggressiveness of this relationship is prone to foster anger and hurt
feelings - so be careful not to incite hostility in each other.
