Aquarius
About Your Sign...
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.
