Scorpio and Aries Compatibility

There are numerous types of relationships to explore when considering compatibility between two signs. We grow up in a parent/child dynamic. Outside our family, we form friendships with other children and eventually other adults. We look for and find love. And, we go to work and have careers, interacting with employers and co-workers.

Each sign-to-sign interaction guides our behavior in every relationship. Read through this section to find out how each of the above dynamics works astrologically so you can experience the optimal way to communicate and get along with your sign and all the other signs.

Generally Speaking

The Aries-and-Scorpio interaction is surprisingly positive, probably because both signs have the same traditional ruler, Mars. As the “I am” sign of the Zodiac, Aries is independent, face-paced, and likes to take risks. Scorpio is the “I transform” sign of the Zodiac, and is intense, powerful, and a change agent. A long-term relationship (outside parent/child) can happen, but if it does not, then for Aries it is, “easy come, easy go”, and for Scorpio, it is, “well, everything changes”. Scorpio is a fixed sign, that can make any situation persist, even, and especially if it is dramatic, but Aries prefers positive interactions, and too much negativity will eventually cause it to go on its way.

Aries Parent/Scorpio Child

The Aries parent and Scorpio child will work well together. Scorpio, as a type, is always trying to find out where the power lies and test that power constantly. Thus, the Scorpio child can start running the household if the parents show too much weakness. The Aries parent will have no problem standing up to the Scorpio child and will not be overwhelmed by their intensity or secretiveness. Any power displays will be met head-on and dealt with quickly.

Scorpio Parent/Aries Child

The Scorpio parent and Aries child can work in the same way as the Aries parent and Scorpio child. The Scorpio parent appreciates the Aries child’s individualistic nature and makes sure the child knows who is in charge. Pressure turns coal into diamonds is a concept Scorpio understands and exerts all too well. Aries is one of the few signs that can stand up to that pressure and be shaped into a diamond. That is not to say that these signs will not clash, they will, in spectacular fashion sometimes, but they will not give into each other, creating respect.

Aries Friend/Scorpio Friend

Aries and Scorpio friends are very important to each other because they can hang out with someone that is equally as intense. Even though the Scorpio intensity is constant; Aries can rise to the occasion should it be necessary. Also, Aries is one of the few signs that can call out Scorpio and Scorpio will have to listen because Aries is not afraid of them. These two can go to war together and be an unstoppable force as friends.

Aries Lover/Scorpio Lover

This romance, love, sex combination is downright intense and can be pornographic. Aries is a “let’s rip off our clothes and have sex here in the bathroom” and Scorpio is “why do we have to hide in the bathroom, let’s go here in the airplane seats”. It is very likely that these two will have a lifelong love affair even if they do not end up living together or getting married. If love and romance cannot work in practical terms, neither is likely to give up the great sex because of conventional interferences.

Aries Employer/Scorpio Employee

The Aries employer and the Scorpio employee can be an intense combination. As the sign that prefers to transform, the Scorpio employee will want to be in roles where transition or a shakeup needs to happen. They can be the “guard and attack dog” of the company. Aries will have no problem turning them loose on situations where improvement and change need to take place, only stepping in if the Scorpio gets too power-hungry.

Scorpio Employer/Aries Employee

If the employer is a Scorpio and the employee is Aries, this combination works well, but differently than the Aries employer/Scorpio employee dynamic. Scorpio wants things done with passion and appreciation for the results. Any weak link needs to be fixed or cut off the chain. Aries will not be one of the weak links, even if they are not always as consistent as Scorpio might prefer. If something needs to be done quickly and intensely, a Scorpio boss can put an Aries employee on the task.

Aries Co-worker/Scorpio Co-worker

This combination is good for getting needed results under pressure. If the task requires persistent and consistent effort, the Scorpio is the one for the job. If the job requires more than one person, then match the Scorpio up with an Aries and things will get done powerfully and quickly. There is a natural sense of competition that will spur these two on, which if harnessed properly by management, can result in amazing outcomes.
