Square matches like that between Aquarius and Scorpio bring explosive, confrontational energy. Even small and unimportant issues can produce heated debate. Serious matters could see these two duelling at dawn!
This potential for tension is due in part to the respective elements. The Air of Aquarius is associated with thinking and ideas, where the Water sign Scorpio operates more in the realm of feeling and sensation. Aquarians are generally accepting of everyone, but the intense emotional life of Scorpio may at times be overbearing and leave them needing a break. Scorpio, by contrast, will likely struggle with Aquarius' customary optimism and sometimes unorthodox behaviour, which to Scorpio may seem jarringly flippant or superficial. What's more, these are both Fixed modality signs, meaning they can each—albeit in markedly different ways—be resolute about getting their own way. Butting heads is an apt analogy, for when these two disagree, neither will want to back down, ever.
The friction attached to this pairing does have plenty of upside, however. For one thing, these two will almost certainly get each other's attention. Sexual chemistry and flirtatiousness are common, especially early in a relationship. In any context, the blend of confusion and curiosity between these signs tends to attract rather than repel. More importantly in the long term, this combination strongly favours maturing and growth. The tension here, sometimes playful, sometimes more serious, will help both parties recognize which core aspects of themselves are working and which must be abandoned for their own good. The result can be a powerful bond indeed.
It is true that, at times, the wisdom bestowed by this energy match may be most gratefully experienced in other relationships. However, many Aquarius/Scorpio matches are able to harness the benefits between themselves to form a sustained and powerfully nourishing alliance.

Sally Field (11/6/1946, Scorpio Dog), Burt Reynolds (2/11/1936, Aquarius Rat) : The two actors starred together in Smokey and the Bandit in 1977. Later, Reynolds described Field as "the love of my life" and said, "I don’t know why I was so stupid...You find the perfect person, and then you do everything you can to screw it up." In an emotional statement after Reynolds died in 2018, Field stated, "My years with Burt never leave my mind. He will be in my history and my heart, for as long as I live. Rest, Buddy."
Julia Roberts (10/28/1967, Scorpio Sheep), Daniel Moroder (1/31/1969, Aquarius Monkey) : The actor and cinematographer have been married since 2002. At the time they met, around 2000, both were involved with other people. Roberts has explained, "He sorted his whole thing out, separate and apart from me. And I sorted my life out, separate and apart from him. I think that’s the only reason we were able to ultimately fall in love with each other and be together."
Demi Moore (11/11/1962, Scorpio Tiger), Ashton Kutcher (2/7/1978, Aquarius Horse) : The two actors were married from 2005 to 2013 and for a time were one of the most famous celebrity couples in the world. Moore, who is 15 years older than Kutcher, has described, "When I met Ashton, it almost felt like a do-over, like I could just go back in time and experience what it was like to be young with him- much more so than I’d ever been able to experience it when I was actually in my 20s."
John Cleese (10/27/1939, Scorpio Rabbit), Camilla Cleese (1/24/1984, Aquarius Pig) : The father and daughter comedians announced in 2022 that they would be developing together a reboot of John Cleese's celebrated Fawlty Towers TV Show. Camilla Cleese had previously described how problems in her personal life led to a period of estrangement between them: "I think it was more just his approach of, 'You don’t have the privilege of being in our family until you straighten up your act.' But there was always a lot of love there, I don’t think it was out of spite or anything. It was what he felt would be most helpful for me – and it worked. It’s always hard because I was in a pretty bad place, but we made amends after. We’re closer than ever."
RuPaul (11/17/1960, Scorpio Rat), Georges LeBar (1/24/1973, Aquarius Rat) : The performer and author/artist have been together for over 20 years and married in 2017. RuPaul has said about LeBar, "He and I know that on this planet where there are millions and millions of people, the person I have found on this planet that I like the very most is him. And I know that for him the person he loves the most on this planet is me. I know that, there's no doubt in my mind."

Dog and Dragon
Compatibility overview
Chinese astrologers are well known for unflinching assessments of relationships they believe do not attract good fortune. That is certainly the case with the match between Dog and Dragon, one of the six famous Opposites. In short, this relationship has a notorious reputation for hostility and tension. Nevertheless, there is more to the story here, as the prospects are by no means exclusively bad.

The infamous reputation of the Opposite matches in the Chinese zodiac stems from the directly opposed energy between them. Negative traits tend to be constantly amplified. In the case of the Dog and Dragon, the faithful Dog is apt to get caught between fawning infatuation and deep-seated anxiety. The Dragon is likely to exploit cruelty and criticism to get the attention they crave.
Probably the greatest problem is the potential lack of respect. The Dog's well-earned reputation for hard work and loyalty may seem wasteful and weak in the eyes of the proud Dragon. Meanwhile, the Dragon's incomparable flare and drive could strike the Dog as lacking substance—as well as ignoring, even bullying, those less fortunate.
When these two find themselves in partnership, whatever the context, it can be helpful to keep these essential differences in mind. Ultimately, they each supply universal energy that the other does not have. While perhaps unsympathetic as between them, the result can be awesomely powerful. This is a pairing that can dominate social, business, or political circles, sporting arenas, indeed the world at large. But they are likely to need a range of more congenial allies, too, if they are to maintain patience with one another for an extended length of time.

Vladimir Putin (10/7/1952, Libra Dragon), Donald Trump (6/14/1946, Gemini Dog) : The relationship between President Trump of the US and President Putin of Russia was a source of much fascination during the former's term in the Oval Office. In the US, the apparent friendliness between the two—historically unprecedented between Russian and American leaders—drew criticism from Democrats and even some Republicans.
Harvey Weinstein (3/19/1952, Pisces Dragon), Steven Spielberg (12/18/1946, Sagittarius Dog) : The celebrated film director and now-infamous producer already shared a fraught relationship long before Weinstein's conviction as a sex offender. The tension between them resulted in two competing movie projects about the kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara, as well as a confrontation over Shakespeare in Love defeating Saving Private Ryan for the 1999 Best Picture Oscar. "When I saw Spielberg later, I don’t think it was a lovefest," Weinstein said about the incident. "That was a tough one."
Jeb Bush (2/11/1953, Aquarius Dragon), George W. Bush (7/6/1946, Cancer Dog) : The two brothers, part of the Bush political dynasty and respectively a former US President and Governor of Florida, have famously shared a fractious but formally supportive relationship. A cousin described in a published memoir that, "When they were young, Jeb was just somebody for George to torture."
Orlando Bloom (1/13/1977, Capricorn Dragon), Justin Bieber (3/1/1994, Pisces Dog) : The singer and actor made headlines after an altercation between them in Ibiza, Spain. Footage of the event appeared to show Bloom throwing a chair at Bieber.
Rihanna (2/20/1988, Pisces Dragon), Nicki Minaj (12/8/1982, Sagittarius Dog) : These two legendary entertainers collaborated together on tracks including "Fly" and "Raining Men" in 2010. After years of a rumoured feud and apparently unfollowing each other on social media, they reunited in 2021.
Chelsea Noble (12/4/1964, Sagittarius Dragon), Kirk Cameron (10/12/1970, Libra Dog) : The two actors married in 1991 and have six children (four of whom are adopted). They met on the set of the TV show, Growing Pains (1985-1992). They have since starred together in films including A Little Piece of Heaven (1991) and Mercy Rule (2014), and several times Noble has played an uncredited "kissing double", as Cameron is an Evangelical Christian who refuses to kiss a woman who is not his wife. Noble has described: "We've learned that we have to be respectful fo each other's need for personal space. On the set, we have separate dressing rooms, and sometimes that's where we find personal time. Because of our friendship, we can say 'I need a little space' or 'I need some time alone,' and we respect that, instead of taking it personally...Instead of taking our frustrations out on each other, we've learned how to best work through things. We don't walk away from each other, or run to separate work places. We face each other and work things out."

Final Words
The Square combination of firstwest and secondwest may sometimes wonder if there is anything they agree about at all, yet this potent connection also offers rare opportunities for both signs to crystallize who they are and what they want out of life, and to cultivate greater self-awareness, patience and generosity in communicating. On the Chinese zodiac side, the energy between the firsteast and secondeast is similarly powerful and conflictive—though again there are countervailing positives, as few combinations can summon such a spectacular and impactful coalescence of energy. It may take a supreme effort to maintain this ferocious connection over the long term, but for as long as it endures, this is a recipe for a blazing, unforgettable relationship.
