Ok, I planned to do Aquarius last, but screw it! None of the Aquarians really know what they are going to do next, so I doubt y’all care. Also, I did make a longggg post on this topic and of course the forum clocked out on me so … here comes the second attempt.
There are many misconceptions about Aquarius, but mostly a regurgitation of the idea that we are unfeeling, emotionally clueless logic boxes who are incapable of sustaining intimacy. Nice try… what makes you think that someone like President Roosevelt was not emotionally intelligent; his personal life is stereotypical for an Aquarian, but then how many Cancer or Scorpio out there stuck in the sham of marriages?
Aquarians are fixed thinking; we’d run around naked if that’s what it takes to prove our point. And that alone is passion. So I am not going into the smaller, minor behavioral little things here for Aquarians. It doesn’t matter; they’ll sleep with their friends or with your friends, they’ll have a rule book and read it every night, or whatever. All of them would do lots of different, strange things but they all follow a logical scheme that might not hold much water objectively.
Symbolically, Aquarius is the water bearer, which was a profession until technology brought in water pipes (Funny how that works for Aquarians). Water bearers used to bring water to families, and stuck around for other tasks. So there was an outsider perspective of someone who was friendly with strangers, but outsider nonetheless. That sounds Aquarius to me! Aquarius is ruled by Saturn and Uranus, and Saturn castrated his father – Uranus so being ruled by *that relationship sounds like a perfect set up for being emotionally imbalanced; most Aquarians have very strange relationships with their families (abused, estranged, strained, etc). Aquarians are usually also tasked with breaking away from traditions and creating new institutions, or the new normal.
Speaking of family, Aquarius Sun is at fall, and Aquarius moon is 8th place from the Cancer. Aquarius luminaries are wildly different from each other, compared to other signs. So Aquarius Sun is actually the independent, gadget-lover ones, that struggle with weak father figure; they tend to be aware of reality and deeply interested in changing it so that their identity manifested on a physical form as reformer or revolutionary. Aquarius moon on the other hand have parents who are controlling (moon in 8th), emotionally volatile relationships with parents but somehow having a deep tie as well. Lunar Aquarians might not be independent at all – Britney Spears is still under a conservatorship. Aquarius suns are very easily prone to depression (Pres Lincoln); Aquarius moons are prone to lunacy (Marilyn Monroe). Aquarius suns are late bloomers, rebellious during their younger years and gradually find their identity (Sheryl Crow); Aquarius moons are pretty popular when they are younger, definitely find early success due to seemingly mature, emotional control (Britney Spears, Jojo, Shawn Mendes) but might or might not experience some volatile emotional events later and tend to have less of an impact later on in life.
Aquarius is also the only sign represented by a normal human being. So they put human beings as equal to god; I disagree that Aquarius have god complex; they are observational, and keep their water contained (water bearer) and often disown their water as someone else’s but the most god-complex sign is Pisces (I’ll get to that on another day). The United States has an Aquarius moon. When the puritans sailed over in their 11 ships (11!), John Winthrop wrote a little document called City Upon the Hill where he described that they’d create a model community (blueprint for innovation or new institutions!) and if they abide by their contract, God was supposed to favor them with good things; if god doesn’t hold up his contract, well they’ll renegotiate the terms. This document was historical in setting the American exceptionalism (sounds Aquarius, no?).
With the Leo-Aquarius, father-sun axis, Aquarians love to create. But unlike Leo’s desires to be admired, loved, looked up to, Aquarius didn’t have the passed down royalty … to be fair, they would if they don’t feel like castrating their fathers all the time. But Aquarius desires a life represented by Museum of Science and Technology, something profound and created by humans (not artistic representation like Taurus or just balancing existing ingredients like Libra). Aquarians spend their early years researching, studying different styles, mixing up elements so the eclectic seems wholesome and natural and fresh. They become obnoxiously obsessed with being fascinated by others, as something of a unicorn no one else can figure out. Aquarius moons will go through phrases like this while Aquarius suns actually spend years partaking in different communities, wearing their experiences around their neck, and identifying with being multifacted, hard-to-pinned down. Many Aquarians don’t actually know how to describe themselves. They will break rules as a sport, almost instinctually, and probably way faster and sneakier than any Aries lol.
As they get older, most Aquarians will set out to have their own footing. Mid-winter babies are also resilient and stubborn. They are similar to Capricorn in that they want to do the difficult stuff. Actually they are out for not only your respect, but your fascination, which is ultimately obsession and worship to the nth degree. And they keep arguing that they don’t have a giant ego ….almost all aquarius singers write songs; Sheryl Crow for a while is the only female singer ever nominated for a grammy in music production (until Linda Perry, a veteran song-writer and producer is nominated recently). Dr Dre didn’t just build his career as a rapper, he then produces, has a record label, and built an empire while transforming the genre. Many Aquarians cross genre, or mix up multiple disciplines. They are also those who create dictionaries and catalogs of things … not Sag btw. For all their philosophical reputations, Sags can’t seem to ever put things in boxes. Clear examples are obviously Darwin, who tracked several organisms. His writings are actually much less judgmental, more open to life than how social Darwinism makes scientific disciplines seem to be. Then there is Paul Ekman who create the atlas of emotion (contained water, no?).
Aquarians contributions and mischiefs are equally vast. Their offbeat side makes their intelligence less obvious; I mean we are highly likely to do something utterly, logically stupid … so it’s understandable people don’t put us above gemini or virgo for intelligence. *Shrug* but the water bearers walked a long way towards the water sources and then carried it all back to the families. Think about that imagery and think about how far Aquarius are willing to go for their passion to create a difference. They see everything. Not like Pisceans being able to feel everything the moment they step into a room. Aquarius see everything, like tiny dots across time and space and they see you for who you are. They are often distant because most people are not enough for Aquarius. They love you for who you are, and still they know you’re not enough. This is a hard truth to take in. Scorps would complain Aquarius honesty is insensitive, but then we think well in the grand scheme of time, would you rather I lie?
Now, on to the important part. I have extract how to capture the heart of an Aquarius down to a science.
#1 if you make them jealous, or feel like they are not good enough for you, and cause them to throw some version of a tantrum, they love you. Aquarians don’t like people, they either love you, or tolerate you, or want nothing to do with you. I’m spilling all the Aquarian beans here lol. We are not like opening dismissing you to have an upper hand for power like some other signs, but when we want nothing to do with you, we are disowning our own anger, frustration and hatred, you see… so help us realize we disown our love for you can be a temporarily good strategy. Anyway, being loved by an aquarius isn’t enough. As I said, we might love you and still you’re not enough for this longgg winter.
#2 Now, if you just keep at #1, you'll fail. This is why online astrology gives contradictory advice. #1 works in a short period of time, but the brain of an Aquarius always go through updates and upgrades so, you keep staying at v1 they'd be long gone. They have recognized the bug, they are on to v2. You have to be able to look at us in the eyes and say “I know you” and make sure we actually believe it. Meaning you actually know where our heads are heading and can create some cosmic balance with us. We have to feel like we are on our toes with your logic a little bit. Astrologers LOVE to say Aquarians just want a friend. No, we want high quality, uniquely customized companions and these folks are hard to come by so some of us tolerate, some of us live a life alone, without being lonely because living with someone who don’t know us is pretty much the same thing.
#3 is the grand slam kinda move. If you got #3, you won’t need to have #1 or #2 because we are not scorpios, we don’t need you to prove your work every damn step of the way … duhh you got #3 you obviously got the other two. It is the ability to prove to us that you know we got what it takes to get to where we want to go. Aquarius are self-conscious and somewhat insecure signs. Its grand lesson in life is to trust. In the Tarot, Aquarius is the Star, shining the light out of darkness. Aquarians spend their whole life shining their lights for others, hoping others even catch up to share a moment of companionship. So if you can prove that you are even ahead of them, that you shine the light for the Aquarius to get out of their own darkness, to trust their ability to pull through, you are a grand winner.
Why do you think some Aquarians would meet up with the love of their life, in 3 seconds look at the other person and say: “ I know you” and get married and live a happy ever after (a la George Stephanopoulos). Ok I exaggerated some details but all the scorps who say we lack emotional vulnerability, well we actually do have the best Valentine’s 😉
PS: I am raining on Scorp in this post because Scorpios are the biggest complainer about Aquarians’ emotions. Most of scorps only make it up to #1.5 when the fastest surest path is #3, which bypasses the rest.
