The Character of Aquarius
Aquarians are the sign of the future. They are visionaries and the very incarnation of astrology itself. Those under the influence of Aquarius are completely unorthodox. They are so original that they'll almost always refuse to follow a crowd. If you are an Aquarius, you enjoy being different, even if that 'different' comes off as 'crazy' to most of the world.
Independence of the intellectual variety is the most distinctive quality of a seasoned Aquarius. You are liberal and incredibly progressive, but you're also very sure of yourself. You know what you know and you're not easy to convince otherwise. This innate stubbornness pops up at unexpected times, sometimes over ridiculous little things. You might refuse to change your mind regarding an idea you have, a place you're going to visit, or even what you're going to have for dinner. This isn't necessarily your most attractive qualities, but it does make you steadfast in your beliefs.
As an Aquarius, you happily and frequently ignore what others think of you. You'll strike off on new paths, not caring that no one supports you, simply because you want to. Boredom is like the plague, to be avoided at all costs, so you do everything you can to keep busy. This doesn't mean you're always on the go. Aquarius can be busy simply by watching the clouds roll by. Boredom is a state of mind, one you refuse to indulge in.
Most people born under this sign live in their own little world inside their heads. This doesn't mean you sit in a chair staring at the wall. This means that you are constantly seeking knowledge. You are open-minded, love new ideas, and search for the next perfect vision. You are totally objective when doing this, rarely letting emotion get in the way because you have an innate distrust of the emotional world. And yet you are an emotional sign. This causes the typical inner conflict common among Aquarians.
As an Aquarius, you are keenly aware of your own intelligence. This leads directly to your greatest weakness: a tendency to inflate your own importance and pose as an expert on things you really have no business being in expert in. But since you have the ability to become an expert in anything, this weakness can be turned into a strength if you are willing to do the work (though most Aquarians aren't).
Aquarius and Its Relationship With Others
You tend to be highly social and you attract friends wherever you go. You enjoy surrounding yourself with a great variety of people so you can entertain yourself by watching their interactions. You could easily be called a student of human behavior. Weakness annoys you, but you understand human frailty and accept it as a part of life. You are also aware of your own faults, though you may not broadcast them.
At your heart, you are a lover of humanity. Your concern for the welfare of mankind is immense and you will go to great lengths to help humanity as a whole, but your ability to engage in personal relationships, especially of the intimate kind, is suspect. There is always a small part of you that refuses to engage, a part that remains distant. This can be off-putting to those who do not understand the unique way in which Aquarius loves.
Independence is your way of life. Anything or anyone can and will be sacrificed to maintain it. If you feel trapped, such as in a relationship that curtails your freedom, you will break free no matter the cost. This makes romantic relationships difficult, but if you can find someone who respects your intellect and independence, you are certainly capable of a lasting relationship.
You are very good at overlooking the shortcomings of others. You'll forgive almost any fault and love everyone equally. The problem? You expect everyone else to do the same. You expect that your faults will be overlooked, and when that doesn't happen, you can be deeply hurt. This again leads you to withdraw from personal relationships and instead concentrate on your own projects.
Aquarius is the sign of the idealist. You like to see everyone happy and will go to great lengths to do something both important and meaningful to the world at large. Many Aquarians become politicians or get involved in social causes as a way of giving back to the world and benefiting humanity.
You are full of hopes and dreams, but you're not content to just dream. You want to makes these dreams a reality for all. But your talent really lies in coming up with the grand plan for improving things and letting others implement it. You are the idea person, the creative one, the one who shuns the day to day tasks in favor of a higher calling. You'd rather invent the scheme and let others worry about the details.
You are so determined to be an original that you are sometimes contrary just to be contrary. You don't care at all about convention, giving others the impression that you are eccentric. You enjoy this label and expect that others will apply it kindly.
When an Aquarian is bored, trouble will inevitably follow. You like to start arguments, not because you feel deeply about something, but because arguing is an intellectual exercise that engages the mind. You like to provoke others to see what kind of response you'll get, especially when you're around those people you consider a little boring. Your idea of fun isn't always appreciated.
Still, Aquarians are incredibly kind and easygoing. You don't take offense easily and you make a steadfast friend. Others love to be around you because you are entertaining, but also because you have some unique and worthy ideas that they want to hear. The fact that you're both reasonable and gentle is just a bonus.
Altruistic, helpful, and painfully honest, Aquarians move through life with an eye to gaining knowledge. If you're an Aquarius, you are exciting and change the lives of all those you come in contact with for the better.
