Aquarius at a glance

Aquarius is the sign of the interesting outsider — ideas, communities and the future arriving early. It loves humanity in general and guards its individuality in particular.

Personality

Aquarius energy is inventive, principled and cheerfully contrarian. Strong placements make people who question the default setting of everything, then build the alternative. The sign's lesson is warmth at close range: it is easier to love the crowd than to let one person all the way in.

Aquarius in love

In love, Aquarius wants friendship first and freedom always. The right partner finds its oddness delightful, argues well and never tries to make it normal. Intimacy, for this sign, starts in the mind.

Career & money

Aquarius fits technology, science, social causes, research and any field mid-reinvention. It is the sign most likely to be doing a job that did not exist ten years ago.

Strengths & challenges

Strengths: original thinker · principled · unshockable · community-minded

Challenges: emotional detachment · contrariness · all-or-nothing friendships

Moon in Aquarius
