You tend to repeat different versions of the same activities, whether they’re professional activities or the way you organize your life. The trick is to become interested in truly new ones. Find a friend who will join you in that pursuit. You will never regret it.
Today I’ll rearrange my day, just for the fun of it
As an air sign, you love thinking about ideas, discussing what’s going on in the world around you with others. You’ll touch on all sorts of possibilities, some familiar, others so new you’re still learning about them.
For you, as an Aquarius, being up-to-date is both exciting and makes you think about what you could do next. However, once you begin thinking about the practical side of embracing those possibilities, your enthusiasm dies down, mostly because getting involved would mean making changes you regard as overwhelming, if not just plain impossible.
So those discussions remain exactly that—an exchange of ideas. The trick? It’s to recognize that it is impossible to discuss a future that is as unfamiliar as it is exciting. This is where, in the past, you’ve backed out of promising plans, personal or otherwise.
However, certain individuals have a knack for being guides. You may not be able to do it alone. Trust them. At least talk to them. They will help you imagine how those changes could work. In the past, often you’ve said, “Yes, but …” then done nothing. It’s the same with relationships. Here, too, you tend to look for what you know. But as an Aquarius, your life is about experiencing a broader world, and once you decide to do it, not only will you learn, you’ll enjoy every step of the journey.
You enjoy meeting people who are interesting and settling into habits that might be termed the rituals of meeting. But that alone can be restrictive. The trick is to have at least one person who kicks you out of those habits and corners you into doing something new.
There is a concept circulating about healthy addictions: the ones that encourage you to undertake activities, ways of thinking, or even ways of eating that will benefit you and which you don’t even have to think about every day. Focus on those and you will notice the difference.

There is a difference between making tentative plans and lasting commitments. The problem is, one particular individual views every arrangement as final. Gently but firmly help them understand that, at the moment anyway, plans are flexible and that will be better for everybody concerned.
Aquarius: JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18
Ruler: Uranus
Symbol: The Water Bearer
Element: Air
Flower: Orchid
One of the few human zodiac symbols, Aquarius is the water bearer, the third of the clever air signs. While ruled by Saturn for most of history, when the first planet to be discovered in modern times, Uranus, was spotted in 1781, you acquired a new, edgy ruler. Your flower is an orchid, your spice is chili, and your tree is all those bearing fruit. Not surprisingly, your stone is the aquamarine.
