Astrological Sun Signs: Aquarius in Brief

Those born between January 21st and February 19th are ruled by the sign of Aquarius, whose astrological signs are the water-bearer and water whipped into waves by the wind. But the time the sun entered the sign of Aquarius, our ancestors were beginning to feel confined. Those that weren't snowed in would only bother to visit their closest friends or other neighbors with whom they had agreed to band together to help each other survive the winter. With their friends they could escape the monotony of the winter days by sharing their wildest hopes and wishes for the future. Inspired by the acceptance of their friends, it was possible to foresee a whole world of friends, each pouring out nourishing ideas and inventions. These ideas could have been thought crazy by those who didn't allow themselves to creatively dream about the future, and so those with Aquarian tendencies had to learn to detach themselves from the comments of less understanding members of the community they desired to serve. This made some of them rebels, desiring freedom at all costs.

Aquarians came to be associated with ideas for the good of humanity, hence the water-bearer pours his water onto the earth for all humanity to drink from. Aquarius is also connection to friends, hopes, wishes, community, eccentricity, genius, invention, emotional detachment, rebelliousness, and a desire for unrestricted freedom. The parts of the body ruled by Aquarius are the ankles and the wrists, as these are the most unrestricted joints of the body.

People born under the sign of Aquarius function best when they have an outlet for their desire to change the world and express their own innate creativity.
