Aquarians basically possess strong and attractive personalities. They fall into two principle types: one shy, sensitive, gentle and patient; the other exuberant, lively and exhibitionist, sometimes hiding the considerable depths of their character under a cloak of frivolity. Both types are strong willed and forceful in their different ways and have strong convictions, though as they seek truth above all things, they are usually honest enough to change their opinions, however firmly held, if evidence comes to light which persuades them that they have been mistaken. They have a breadth of vision that brings diverse factors into a whole, and can see both sides of an argument without shilly-shallying as to which side to take. Consequently they are unprejudiced and tolerant of other points of view. This is because they can see the validity of the argument, even if they do not accept it themselves. They obey the Quaker exhortation to "Be open to truth, from whatever source it comes," and are prepared to learn from everyone.
Both types are humane, frank, serious minded, genial, refined, sometimes ethereal, and idealistic, though this last quality is tempered with a sensible practicality. They are quick, active and persevering without being self-assertive, and express themselves with reason, moderation and sometimes, a dry humor.
They are nearly always intelligent, concise, clear and logical. Many are strongly imaginative and psychically intuitive, so that the Age of Aquarius, which is about to begin, is much anticipated by psychic circles as an age in which mankind will experience a great spiritual awakening. The Aquarian philosophical and spiritual bent may be dangerous in that it can drive the subjects into an ivory-tower existence where they meditate on abstractions that bear little relevance to life. On the other hand it can help the many who have scientific leanings to combine these with the Aquarian yearning for the universal recognition of the brotherhood of man, and to embark on scientific research to fulfill their philanthropic ideals of benefiting mankind. When some cause or work of this nature inspires them, they are capable of such devotion to it that they may drive themselves to the point of exhaustion and even risk injuring their health.
Both types need to retire from the world at times and to become temporary loners. They appreciate opportunities for meditation or, if they are religious, of retreats. Even in company they are fiercely independent, refusing to follow the crowd. They dislike interference by others, however helpfully intended, and will accept it only on their own terms. Normally they have good taste in drama, music and art, and are also gifted in the arts, especially drama.
In spite of the often intensely magnetic, forthcoming and open personality of the more extrovert kind of Aquarian, and of their desire to help humanity, neither type makes friends easily. They sometimes appear to condescend to others and take too little trouble to cultivate the acquaintance of people who do not particularly appeal to them.
They do not give themselves easily - perhaps their judgment of human nature is too good for that - and are sometimes accounted cold. But once they decide that someone is worthy of their friendship or love, they can exert an almost hypnotic and irresistible mental attraction on them and will themselves become tenacious friends or lovers, ready to sacrifice everything for their partners and be faithful to them for life. However, they are sometimes disappointed emotionally because their own high personal ideals cause them to demand more of others than is reasonable. And if they are deceived their anger is terrible. If disillusioned, they do not forgive.
Aquarians work best in group projects, provided that they are recognized as having a leading part in them. They have a feeling of unity with nature and a desire for knowledge and truth that makes them admirable scientists, especially astronomers and natural historians. They may excel in photography, radiography, electronics - anything connected with the electrical and radio industries - aviation and everything technical. On the arts and humanities side their progressive tendencies can be expressed in writing, especially poetry, and broadcasting, or as welfare workers and teachers. Some have gifts as entertainers and make good character actors (having an ability to mimic) and musicians. The more psychic among them possess healing gifts, especially in curing the mentally sick.
Among the faults to which they are liable are fanatical eccentricity, wayward egotism, excessive detachment and an inclination to retreat from life and society, and a tendency to be extremely dogmatic in their opinions. Aquarians can be a threat to all they survey or a great boon for humanity in general. Circumstances - for example, continuous opposition to a cause they hold dear - may cause the atrophy of the openness of mind that is one of the Aquarian's most attractive traits. They may express a lack of integrity in broken promises, secretiveness or cunning. Simmering anger and resentment, rudeness or, worse, a tense, threatening silence which may suddenly burst out in eruptions of extreme temper, these are all part of the negative side of the Aquarian. This can also reveal itself in a sustained hatred for enemies that is capable of enlarging itself into a misanthropy toward the whole of mankind.
Possible Health Concerns...
As Aquarius is said to govern the legs from knees to ankles and the circulation of blood, its natives are susceptible to ailments particularly in the legs and ankles, such as cramps, and are also liable to spasmodic and nervous complaints, as well as wind, catarrh, diarrhea, dropsy, goiter and delirium tremens - so that the avoidance of alcohol is important for those Aquarians who have a taste for it.

Well, being an Aquarius, I have to say that we're great!! But seriously, we make great friends/lovers for people who can stand independently. We love feeling important, (and we usually ARE important), so sometimes we can be a bit full of ourselves. Also, the infamous trait of being detached is another thing that's trying to others. But for those Aquarians that manage to stay sane in an insane world, we ROCK!! If you ever need a truly honest opinion,or if you want companionship without judgement, find an Aquarius. Patience, loyalty, diplomacy, and strong intuition are other traits that make Aquarians awesome people.

I know a few Aqaurius people. The two males I know are not at all jealous or possessive...its almost insulting to the women they're with actually. I dated an Aquarius back in the day, and I used to try to bait him to make him jealous or get a reaction out of him and it didn't work. LOL If he did get jealous, he sure as hell didn't show it. It seems the Aquarius males I know are above it or find it petty or a waste of time. Out of the three Aquarius females I know, one is jealous and possessive, the other two are uber confident and don't care. They are secure that they have their man, their man only has eyes for them, and could care less if another female looks at or talks to their man. Hell, one of the Aqua girls even sees cute girls and asks her man what he thinks....strange. I'm a Cancer so I am more possessive than jealous. If a woman looks at my husband it actually makes me feel good in a "Eat your heart out" kind of way. Why get angry when a woman talks to your boyfriend? She doesn't know that he's attached, and even if she does, its ok to have a conversation or be friendly. Relax. If $hit is going down just because a female talks to your boyfriend, you are jealous in a ridiculous sort of way. LOL

Zany, intense, aloof and eccentric, unusual and dedicated to those we love and care about, are words which come to mind.
There must be some boring Aquarians out there but I have yet to meet any of them. We are the mad scientists, gypsies, or natural healers of the zodiac and we usually know it. Of course we can appear as sexy/gorgeous/everyday as the next person, but underneath whatever Rising Sign we live behind, (like for instance mine is cancer) there beats a warm heart and a unique mind . So is there anything not perfect about us? Well, sometimes you have a tendency to come across as a teensy bit unapproachable or even detached. Sometimes you might seem just a little bit disconnected from people who love you so much. This is partly because we are Air signs and do have a tendency to allow our minds to wander. Which is how we pick up our brilliant ideas. Y
Our ruling planet is the one with slightly shocking name, Uranus, and are the ones with the ability to really surprise those around us. Uranus also rules electricity and flashes of brilliance, as well as chaos theory. For us, variety is the spice of life. Taking at least one adventure a month suits us well. It doesnt matter what the adventure is, as long as its pleasant . we love a good surprise. And our friends and beloveds love us because we are so eclec tic. Our true fans know that behind our slightly zany ways, and sometimes apparent cool aloofness, is a treasure, we need to be careful of a tendency to drive people away when we would rather they came closer. We are terrible ones for giving off mixed-signals sometimes. Our world view is one of the most appealling things about us. We see things from a slightly left-of-centre perspective which is not only refreshing but or iginal. Aquarius is the inventor of the zodiac, the one who loves to experiment and, as a result, breaks new ground. We have a laissez faire attitude, in fact, for some people its all too much. Sometimes our only mistake is having ideas which other people cant get their heads around. We are a fixed sign, which means we can be a little bit stubborn when people arent seeing things our way. We dont always have time for social niceties either, . but our best friends understand that doesnt mean we do not love feircly and are still disappointed when a relationship breaks down. Aquarians love to communicate, whether through body language, or a verbal conversation, we love to know how others feel in a situation......

Great people. I'm a Libra so I get on with Aquarius. They're really original and creative and always make me laugh. They're really sweet too. They can be unpredictable though but that makes them more exciting!!!

It is a good sign, a pot which in Vedic Astrology means "KUMBH" the eleventh sign and the lord is Saturn. Hence it has mixed fotunes, If it is ascendent then the person will be a good personalisty but not fair complexion. It all depends wher the Saturn is having its aspects. For detailed analysis you could refer vatandon@rediffmail.com

What do you think about the fact that all this astrology has been done under the assumption that there were nine planets in the solar system, then they discovered another one, suspected that there was a further other, then decided that perhaps these two and Pluto - and possibly Uranus were pat of another system which overlapped with ours, then decided that Pluto was not actually a planet?
Because to me, it's just further proof - as though any more were needed - that it's all a load of crap, along with religion and ghosts.
