                                Aquarius

You are the James Dean of the zodiac, a natural rebel who dislikes 
restraint and dependency--almost to a fault. You get emotionally 
involved more in work than with people, and of all the signs, you find 
it most difficult to establish and maintain a close, intimate 
relationship. This is because of your incredible independence, 
individuality and freedom of spirit, and because you have a difficulty 
letting others into your life. Yet, at the same time, you are a natural 
humanitarian, honest and loyal, very inventive with an intellectual 
mind that loves to ponder the big questions. Dare to challenge this 
mental pioneer, and you will find a very stubborn, yet original, 
personality that enjoys impersonality and detachment.

You crave freedom and dislike any invasion of space. You need a free 
rein in a career, preferring to work uninhibited and with a great need 
to express inventiveness. You have an urgent need to communicate on a 
grand scale, which makes you excellent in any field related to the 
media, such as radio, TV, film, satellites, or computers. You also make 
excellent inventors, social workers, and enjoy any type of work where 
you can express concern for humanity. You also work very well in the 
avant-garde fields, such as the arts, or cutting-edge research in 
technology or psychology. You may even have psychic talent. You follow 
your own path, preferring to go against the grain in a somewhat 
eccentric quest for knowledge and expression. This can border on the 
genius because you think in unique ways. It can also produce extreme 
stubbornness, which can sustain or destroy you. Despite your rebellious 
nature, you have a very strong compassion and usually become 
emotionally involved with causes. Your compassion comes from the 
intellect rather than the heart, however, and you typically have a 
broad spectrum of interests.

On the negative side, this sign can sometimes resort to cruelty or a 
sadistic tendency if lacking love or mercy. As a boss, you can be very 
critical and demanding, and are often difficult to work with. Your 
coldness repels people, yet at the same time you have a fiery 
attachment to idealist 'causes' which inspire and motivate people to 
compassion. You usually cling to your opinions and rarely lose hope. 
Your chief faults, however, are unpredictability, remoteness and 
emotional problems stemming from your detachment. When you are evolved, 
however, you can feel great love and express it. You have the capacity 
to spread this to others.

Aquarians usually have very strong bodies, but prefer to use their 
minds. They are imaginative, creative and usually have two kinds of 
friends: conservatives or unconventional bohemian types. If they work 
in an organization, they are typically leaders or organizers. Famous 
Aquarius individualists that have made lasting contributions are 
Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Edison, and Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The Aquarius man is also often inscrutable, desiring companionship but 
also individuality. He is fascinated by unusual people or places, and 
is always focused on the future, though he may also be interested in 
the mysteries of the past. He enjoys travelling, is a natural 
revolutionary, and will rebel if too restricted. More than anything, he 
needs a sanctuary to retreat to. Although he can be remote or 
undemonstrative at times as a parent, his love for children runs deep.

Aquarians get along with just about anyone. They are not prejudiced, 
and are typically attracted to people of an intellectual nature. In 
romance, they need space and freedom--even when they make a commitment. 
They need room within to grow and express their individuality, and for 
a relationship, this is often a point of contention. They are stubborn, 
and are usually attracted to unique people. In fact, they are noted for 
their own uniqueness, and they value this quality in others. Home is 
important to these individuals as a status symbol--it increases their 
pride and prestige.

Aquarians are very generous with money, often spending on their 
families and loved ones. They give money to humanity as well, having 
compassion for the poor. They also will save their money to finance 
some kind of libertarian idea they have. In the spiritual realm, they 
will seek their own path, since Aquarius is the sign of spiritual 
rebirth. They may also rebel against some kind of family or organized 
religion, choosing innovation over tradition. Their bold shyness and 
desire to communicate on a massive scale gives them an energy and power 
of thought that is constantly changing. Their religion may change, but 
their commitment to humanity stays constant.

Aquarius is an air sign and a fixed sign, which denotes stability 
within change. Ruled by both Saturn and Uranus--the established order 
vs. the futurists--the typical Aquarius is in conflict with himself. He 
either feels he is ahead of his time, or behind it. Whatever the case, 
he is hypersensitive to group rules, tends to rebel against them, and 
does it in a very public way. He represents the power of thought as it 
is changing, and the power of the individual to express himself. He 
will stand up for what he believes in, and his true friends will join 
him in whatever the cause, believing in his integrity and commitment to 
humanity.
