In general, Aquarius and Taurus don’t necessarily see eye to eye as they are both fixed signs in different elements. Aquarius is the fixed air element, and there’s usually a stubbornness related to the mentality while Taurus is the fixed earth element with its stubbornness manifesting in relation to its physical existence.

This is the energy of Venus in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus.
