Aquarius’ are often misidentified as a water sign because their symbol is the water-bearer, but they are a gone with the wind, masculine air sign, that is polarity to Leo in the zodiac. Welcome to Uranus ruled Aquarius’ SZN—where friendships, rebellion and eccentricities rule. Aquarians detest the past and are driven to move forward. Although they are a fixed sign and can be airheaded like their brothers, the Gemini and Libra, they are capable of aerial intelligence. Being a detached, humanitarian is their challenge, and they must find a healthy balance to master both.
When you think of the Aquarian ruled Eleventh House, consider the 1992 legendary TLC record, “What About Your Friends?” Friendships and the future are the blueprint of this estate. Pour into your social groups and project your destiny.
Aquarius’ major tarot arcana is The Star card, and its guidance is to get thee behind you and indeed, look to and reach for the stars. When one looks up, it’s as if they are seeking what is unseen. The Star card urges one to inspire by definition—meaning to breath, stay calm and be sanguine.
Word of the Season: Conjunction—an aspect that happens when two planets and/or luminaries are close together and in the same sign. This closeness stimulates powerful new beginnings.
