ZODIAC (5) AQUARIUS

AQUARIUS...The Water Bearer.....21 January to 18 February  (My eldest granddaughter was born under this sign as was her daughter - my #2 great-granddaughter).



Aquarius you are the fixed thinker of the Air signs, determined and clever.  The Air element means you are a thinking type motivated by beliefs, strong opinions and interaction with other people.

As the 'fixed' air sign you put a lot of energy into forming opinions and hold to them strongly.  Driven by two planets, each representing opposite principles you frequently display a 'wild' side, linked to planet Uranus and prompting eccentric leanings, as well as a structured ambitious hard working Saturnian side.  You are most happy when you are doing something different in a big ambitious way.  You are the thinker of the zodiac, your key phrase: "I serve humanity."

Your planetary rulers are:
SATURN: Planet of Material Form and
URANUS: Planet of Intuitive Impulse

A strong desire to connect with groups of people, to express humanitarian principles and to explore social life, are what drive you forward.  The 'waters' that the Water Bearer carries are the waters of humanity and Aquarius serves humanity.  Ancient Arabic Astrology says Aquarius is "of hot and humid nature (aerial).  Its angel is generous and is under the terror of the Majesty; he holds the keys of the spirits."  Spirited and different are words frequently applied to Aquarius and this carries through to the powerful differences between your two ruling planets.  Traditional ruler, Saturn, endows structure and ambition and conservative values while your modern ruler, Uranus, endows intuition and inventive, restless spurts of energy.  As an Air sign you manifest these different sides of yourself in the way you think and communicate and in some of the quirky choices you make.  It is often your job to keep people guessing?  The aspects of the body ruled by Aquarius are the ankles, calves, tibia, fibula. shin bone and the breath.  "Spiritus" or breath is critical to your wellbeing and Aquarians benefit greatly from meditation techniques and deep slow breathing.  It stills the restless mind.

There is a recurrent theme in your Aquarian mythology which is about patriachal power, protecting that power and the earth matriarch rebelling against this divisive approach to community.  You are the sign of the community and you often find yourself in positions of power.  The correct use of your power and the ability to build effective group enterprises is a special Aquarian challenge.  This is one of your strongest character building lessons and your other big lesson has a similar theme.  This is learning to strike the right balance between your restless, inquiring mind and your often neglected body.  It is important to live in your body as well as your head!

Uranus represents the aspiring and inspired mind that leads you ever onward, while Saturn represents the reality of the material world and the need to nurture your body.  Their special message for Aquarius is following your mental aspirations and humanitarian goals while honouring body and soul needs.

Mmm, I can definitely see this granddaughter of mine in the above and I wish she would find the time in her busy, busy world to perhaps meditate a little and breath slowly and deeply for her body's sake.  Her little girl is only 5 so perhaps a wee bit soon to say whether she is a true Aquarian or not but she is certainly very inventive, has lots of energy and does enjoy being with groups of people.

Are you born under the Aquarius star sign and, if you are, is this a true description of you?

  1. My mother was an Acquarian. And yes, some of it fits her very well. She didn't nurture her body at all well though.

    1. Your mum was pretty special then as I like the description for Aquarius. Lots of mums don't nurture their body as well as they should, more's the pity.

  2. That's my girl!
    99% of that describes my T so very well.
    This is the girl who takes my ideas that one or two steps further and actually creates stuff and does all the social things I wish I could but can't.

  3. Seems Aquarius' forecast is true to form for many people. Fantastic that T can carry on with your ideas and bring them to fruition. You sound very proud of her which is fantastic. I am so proud of my daughter too.
