Aquarius
is the sign that rules the 11th solar month of the year, and the 11th
house of the zodiac. Aquarius is the sign of friendship, humanitarian
acts, and setting goals. Aquarius energy brings about a unique way of
seeing life, and an eccentricity that allows one to push past the barriers
of normalcy.
Aquarius is the second month of winter, making it the fourth fixed sign of the
zodiac. Fixed signs are constant and grounded and Aquarius energy can
be counted on. They make steadfast and loyal friends and confidants.
Aquarius is an air sign, bringing the intellect into this sign. Astrologers
say Aquarius is an air sign of high humidity, meaning it is compassionate
intellect. Aquarius is a teaching sign, an energy that has arrived
at conclusions and seeking to share. They make great professors and
mentors.
The planet Uranus rules Aquarius. Uranus is the activator as planets
go. It is such a restless energy that it seeks our rigidity and frustrated
energy and shakes it out of its complacency. Without Uranus rattling our
cage now and then we would settle into destructive and limiting patterns.
Aquarius is symbolized by The Waterbearer, or waves of water. The pouring of the
water from a reliable source and sharing it with others is the meaning.
The water nourishes, like knowledge. It is bringing people into the fold,
like baptism. They share their philosophy willingly.
The highest use of the Aquarian energy is to open up to the profound, and
share it with good friends. We are in the Aquarian age now, sharing information
willingly; all information. It is a time for equality for all through
humanitarian efforts. To see the brotherhood of man and work toward its
highest manifestation.
