Aquarius Personality Traits

　　Aquarius is one of the most unique signs of the zodiac, and people born under this sign experience a sense of uniqueness. This makes them eccentric and energetic in their fight for freedom, or at times shy and quiet, afraid to express their true personality. In both cases, they are deep thinkers and highly intellectual people who love to fight for idealistic causes. They can see people without prejudice, making them truly special. Although they can easily adapt to the energy that surrounds them, Aquarius representatives have a deep need for alone time to restore their inner power.

　　The sign of Aquarius belongs to the element of Air, finishing the story of Gemini and Libra and connecting them through the opposition of freedom and relationships. They rely on their mind and spoken words most of the time, and without mental stimulation, they might lose interest even in things that initially excited them. They see the world as a place full of possibilities and have a need to be spontaneous, follow the moment, and live life to the fullest, never wasting precious time.

　　Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius, with its traditional ruler Saturn by its side. Although Uranus has an abrupt, timid, and sometimes aggressive nature, the presence of Saturn grounds them enough to help them find the distance they need from other people to remain somewhat indifferent. Aquarians are visionaries and are always ready for change, known for their intellectual abilities and for shaking up the world once they're in it. They feel best as part of a certain community, but they might have trouble finding the right place where they truly feel they belong.

　　Aquarius – the Pretty Protégé While the beautiful Ganymede, the cupbearer to the greek gods may have appeared thin and weak, this does not diminish the strength of character in these individuals. They always have someone to support and guide them towards enlightenment. They are often in positions of power, and their issues with authority usually stem from their relationship with other people rather than the leadership structure itself. To find their center, they must be willing to dig deep, and embrace their own essence.

Aquarius Love, Sex & Compatibility

　　Intellectual stimulation is the greatest aphrodisiac for an Aquarius. There's nothing that can attract them more than an interesting conversation. Openness, communication, imagination, and willingness to take risks are qualities that fit well in the emotional world of this zodiac sign. Their compatibility with other signs can be complex, as they represent the opposition itself and have trouble relating to others if their sense of freedom is in any way endangered, or they perceive it to be.

　　Integrity and honesty are essential for anyone who wants to remain in their life, and feelings won't have much to do with how they treat betrayal and those who let them down along the way. They give independence to their partner, seeing them as equal and just as powerful as they are. Even though they can have all the freedom they desire, they could still have trouble with day-to-day interaction even with those they are deeply in love with.

　　As a sign of freedom and solitude, Aquarius can be too difficult to be with for some static and passive signs of the zodiac. You can find out which signs are more compatible with Aquarius by using this widget:

Aquarius Friends and Family

　　Friends - Despite their ability to communicate, Aquarius representatives need time to build closeness with a friend, and they may unconsciously do a lot to avoid being emotional and vulnerable around others. They are willing to self-sacrifice, but only if absolutely necessary, and by the time they jump in to help, a person in trouble will probably realize that they never needed help to begin with. They need creative friends with integrity and a strong intellect.

　　Family - These individuals have certain expectations from their family. Even though it might not be their place to search for answers that their parents should seek, they will do so anyway, and more often than not, impose their will on family members from the best possible intentions - to make them get along. However, the sense of duty they have with some relatives won’t keep them around for very long, as emotional blackmail hardly ever touches the soul of an Aquarius.

Aquarius Career and Money

　　This is a sign that brings enthusiasm, excitement, and innovation to the workplace and has a remarkable ability to exploit their imagination for business purposes. Their high intellect combined with their willingness to share their talents inspires many people in their lives. They are visionaries who like to engage in humane activities and need to work in a place that supports better circumstances for endangered groups of people.

　　The finances of this zodiac sign can be spent on various risks but can also be saved. All they need to create a saving zone is something to look forward to. They are well-adapted to their sense of style and are not afraid to show it. This is why their choice of colors can make a difference in their emotional state. They can excel in professions such as piloting, paragliding, and photography but they also make excellent programmers, ingenious mathematicians, and scientists. They often need to be able to show their personality without many strict guidelines for the way they do so.

Aquarius Man: A Lover's Guide

　　Aquarius men are unpredictable, intelligent, social, independent, and excellent communicators. They can also be unreliable and inflexible, but the right partner can help them become more punctual and flexible to some extent. An Aquarius man sometimes lives inside his mind and needs a companion to talk about his progressive thoughts and ideas. In the game of seduction, one must first become their friend, and everything else will come second. As things fall into place and he discovers he can trust the person standing in front of him, each Aquarius has a chance to meet their own boundaries and see if there is anything else they need to break.

　　As a man who carries the Sun in the sign of detriment, this individual has trouble fitting in. He needs someone to respect his need for freedom, his individuality, and, most of all, his honest desire to make a difference in the world.

Aquarius Woman: A Lover's Guide

　　An Aquarius woman is independent, mysterious, free-spirited, and eccentric, with a fine sense of humor and a strange inability to stay consistent and present. She may seem cold and aloof, but she needs someone to romance her senseless and share good conversations with. Truly exciting, she makes an excellent partner in emotional, sexual, and, especially, mental issues. However, her dedication might not hold for very long if she feels even an ounce of disrespect along the way. She is drawn to people who stand out from the crowd and needs someone to build her trust and take her by the hand into better circumstances.

　　An Aquarius woman is often a highly imaginative partner, mostly in her sexual expression and wants to try out new things on a regular basis. Still, she needs to know that she is valued and loved and at the same time, free from demands and pushiness that some of her partners might be prone to.
