I'm an Aquarius... But I'm not particularly fond of puzzles. I think a lot and dream a lot, but I don't tend to daydream. My mind will drift, but not usually into a daydream.
As for astrology... Well, there's been some shifting since the Greeks established the astrological signs have shifted significantly since that about 2,000 years ago.
"The two zodiacs, sidereal (of the stars) and tropical (of the earth/seasons) can be visualized as two rings occupying the same space with one of them slipping forward by approximately 50.3 seconds of arc each year. If we had a telescope aimed at a fixed point in the east and looked through it at exactly the moment of spring equinox, each year and recorded the star images, we would find that the stars shift very slowly eastwards from year to year at the rate of 50.3 seconds each year. This is what is known as the error due to precession of the equinoxes, which is generated by the wobbling motion caused in the earth's axis primarily due to the gravitational interaction between the earth, moon and the sun."
So, since the astrological sign is actually the star in the sky where the sun rises on the date of your birthday, it is no longer true that the sun is rising over that star anymore. I believe it's two signs over now, if I remember correctly... So "Aquarius" is really rising on "Aries". This is assuming I'm not in error here, which I could be. Ptolemy understood that the rotation axis was slowly precessing, or moving in a circle, with an angular radius of 23 1/2 degrees with a period of around 26,000 years. So in other words, they'll be back to Ptolemy's original observations 26,000 years after their recording. He knew this because the Sumerians had made similar measurements 2,000 years before him. He didn't know why it happened, only that it did.
This is not to say Astrology is thus debunked. It just means you can accept one of two truths regarding the stars that govern it. 1) You accept the factual truth that the sun is rising over a different star today and thus shift your astrological sign accordingly, 2) you accept the esoteric truth of your own perceptions regarding the original establishments of the signs and stick with that. Either one doesn't bother me.

I'm an Aquarius and I'm the same way. Not all Aquarians are alike though. Aquarius was ruled only by Saturn until Uranus was discovered in 1781 and it was designated a co-ruler. A Saturnine Aquarian is more traditional and predictable. Uranian Aquarians are the complete opposite. We do not like tradition or authority and we love to shock people. We are rebels without a cause. We are very analytical and we don't have a problem expressing our opinion.

I do - from what I can tell, I'm a pretty typical Aquarius. My brother (whose birthday is one week later) is just as sharp and intelligent as your typical Aquarius, but he shows it differently. He's more introverted than I am, whereas I'm pretty outgoing.
