"I am independent" is the main drive for most Aquarius individuals. Discovering the world, through off-the-beaten-path analysis, is by and large, a life mission for this odd, ingenious and sociable Sun Sign.
An Overview of the Aquarius Character
When the Sun is in Aquarius, independence becomes the word of the day. The water bearer may be torn between a love for groups and a need to stay liberated. Ruled by what's known as the unpredictable planet of Uranus, this can bring about a unique and in some cases bizarre character. Usually just a slight oddness, or an aloofness will be detectable from the outside. Yes, Aquarius is the oddball sign of the Zodiac, but many also show signs of genius too. If Mercury is also in Aquarius there is an even better chance of a very high-level of thinking.
Aquarius loves to throw a shock to friends and family with statements or deeds. There is a great fondness for knocking people off guard, not only for the reaction, but it's also used as a method to provoke thought. If not an animal lover outright, this sign will in the very least protest any mistreatment of a helpless animal, or more vulnerable member of society. Champions of human and animal rights, this sign is fixed in her opinions on defending the susceptible.
The water bearer may also encounter periods of gloom. Low energy phases, skewing perspective, with negative thought patterns running wild can occasionally occur for the Aquarius. Aquarius often dreams of a great utopia where all is peaceful, but reality disappoints once again bursting the bubble. This leaves Aquarius temporarily uninspired. Retreating from group related activities, even for a small period of time can return a sense of well-being. Another sign that overextends itself on the social calendar, the Aquarius needs frequent reminders to recharge.
Aquarians prefer to live their ideals instead of protesting through demonstrations. Following a decree of humane values is an important part of life for the Aquarius. It's likely that this astrological sign will be one of the first people to start recycling materials, long before the regular crowd decided to participate. With a hope that leading by example, this sign will influence others to follow suit.
The Water Bearer Lives for Groups
An avid fan of group activities, whether by way of party animal, or the P.T.A. chair, Aquarius never misses a meeting. The majority of Aquarians love large gatherings of people. They find a certain comfort in a crowd, perhaps because its more friendly, unlike society at large. Also, that intense independent thinking has a certain loneliness attached to it and crowds can relieve that sense of isolation.
This Sun Sign can easily handle high levels of responsibility. Aquarians are not likely to be found delegating authority like Leo, rather they attain high level autonomous positions, such as treasurer or head accountant. Cleverly keeping the fondness for group affiliation intact, this sign will remain independent.
Uranus Unpredictability Needs a Firm Grip
Aquarius must guard against changing position, or direction too often. Alternating course as often as the wind changes can make this Uranus-ruled sign appear unresolved. However, Aquarius is simply exploring all options. Nevertheless, committing to a change without a thorough investigation is also why Aquarius is better suited to an autonomous career. Thus allowing the water bearer to explore at will, without confusing the work group, or co-workers through conflicting actions.
Some famous Aquarians include Oprah Winfrey, Paul Newman and Jennifer Aniston.
