Even setting goals is odd for someone like you, who is restless and inquisitive by nature. Yet because the world shifts, and often those goals shift, that’s you, too. And the trick is to find those goals that do naturally shift, because it prevents you from getting stuck.
Suddenly, I realize somebody who seemed dull is amazing
The irony of being an air sign is that you’re inquisitive about everything. You love observing the world around you, especially what others are doing, their characteristics, what they go for, and equally what they avoid and their oddities.
However, you often don’t stop to observe your own characteristics in the same way. You like what, and whom, you like, and you dislike what doesn’t suit you, and that’s that. Why would you want to challenge or change that? You have observed other restless individuals as they set out to broaden their horizons in ways they find exciting, yet often you’ve regarded it as just plain odd.
This is indicated by the fact that Aquarius is one of the four fixed signs, those born in the middle of the season. While this gives you amazing stability, you can settle into a pattern and become so familiar with it that you’ll avoid making changes—when actually they’d lead to something new and, often, beneficial.
And this is exactly what you’ll spot in somebody else and is one of your own lessons. It’s about a new variety of inquisitiveness. Once you learn it, a whole new world of options will open up before you.
Discover that fixed side of your nature, begin to “jiggle it” a bit, and the world will become a far more interesting place.
Of the 12 signs of the zodiac, the circle composed of friends or, probably, your family and even colleagues isn’t just important. The time you spend with them is nourishing to you. They support you, but also, it’s their voices you trust when you have questions and, equally, it’s their capacity to reassure you that’s crucial.
These days, there’s a lot of talk about body, mind, and spirit and finding the balance for you. This isn’t just a good idea. It is actually vital, because you wander off in your thoughts and forget about your body and taking care of it. But you can also forget about the part of yourself that knows inner peace.
Even setting goals is odd for someone like you, who is restless and inquisitive by nature. Yet because the world shifts, and often those goals shift, that’s you, too. And the trick is to find those goals that do naturally shift, because it prevents you from getting stuck.
You’ve been trying to win one particularly stubborn individual over to the plans you know they’d enjoy. The problem is, they aren’t just being stubborn, they won’t even listen to what you have to say. Back off. Force them to ask you about your ideas. It will require patience, but it will also work.
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.
