The Sagittarius/Aquarius combination can be an ideal match. Sagittarius, a fire sign, is a strong, independent individual, and Aquarius, an air sign, also loves freedom and needs a detached and universal perspective on life. Fire and air support and stimulate each other, and these two women will find that they have a lot in common, especially in the realm of intellectual interests. The Sagittarian woman is always seeking to find what lies beyond the next horizon, continually aspiring to find the most comprehensive view of life possible, and the Aquarian woman wants to establish a clear and objective standpoint removed from the personal limitations of human emotions, so the values of these two women usually work together very harmoniously.
Both women approach life similarly. Both are highly idealistic and need a great deal of personal freedom. They enjoy involving themselves in idealistic social causes, and will inspire each other in that direction. The problems in this relationship are minor, and revolve around the difficulty each woman has in expressing her intimate feelings. Both have brilliant minds and tend to think in expansive terms, but they also can be impractical about the daily details of life.
Another problem has to do with the fact that the Sagittarian is restless and needs constand change, while the Aquarian may seem at times to be inflexible, dogmatic, and resistant to other people's points of view; to the Aquarian woman, the Sagittarian may seem undependable because she is always changing her mind as new information reaches her. Also the Sagittarian woman has a hot temper and tends to express her anger in an explosive, outspoken way, and the Aquarian woman finds this upsetting because she is only comfortable with a calm and composed approach to life. The Sagittarian woman will find her Aquarian partner cool and aloof and hard to communicate with, especially when dealing with emotional feelings.
These women will have a wonderful mental rapport, and will support each other's ideals and understand each others' need for space and time alone. The main area they may need to develop is in expressing those deeper feelings that are beyond abstract concepts. Both Aquarius and Sagittarius tend to focus on an impersonal level of relating, and this could impede a close emotional bond.
Sexually, these women can be very compatible, especially as each communicates easily with the other and neither tends to push the other into the delicate areas of relating on deeper emotional levels; they respect each other's need for autonomy. Neither tends to be particularly sentimental or romantic, and neither expects that from the other.
