Aquarius Sign

Aquarius Sign
People born between 21st January and 19th February belong to the Aquarius zodiac sign. Aquarius is an air sign. Saturn was the ruling planet of Aquarius until Uranus was discovered. Upon its discovery, Uranus was assigned to Aquarius. Therefore, Saturn is the ancient ruling planet of Aquarius, while Uranus is the modern one. According to Hindu astrology, Kumbha is equivalent to Aquarius. The word 'Kumbha' means pitcher in Sanskrit.

Characteristics of Aquarius
People belonging to the Aquarius sign are characteristic humanitarians. They like being with people and value each and every person they contact. They are selfless and patient, hence, have numerous friends. Friends are always their first priority, and Aquarians are more like guardians than equals. They like to advice people, but it is never the other way round. Every single person seems mysterious to them, and solving the mystery of human nature is the favorite past time for the people of this zodiac sign.

An Aquarius personality is very interesting. Freedom of every kind, including that of action and thoughts is very precious to the Aquarians. Although they socialize a lot, they value personal space too. They will never display their true emotions. Aquarians are curious, intellectual, objective and are drawn to novelty. They are also sympathetic and philosophical. Characteristics of Aquarius also include being erratic, aloof and unpredictable.

Relationship with Aquarius
The most important thing you should note before committing to an Aquarian is that they are never overly romantic. To express in another way, Aquarians find romantic sentiments extremely 'silly'. They lack expression of emotions like jealousy or possessiveness. You have to be mysterious enough to catch the eye of an Aquarian. They will find it very exciting to solve a mystery. Do not express your emotions easily and they will find you almost irresistible.

Aquarius compatibility is the best with Libra and Gemini. Librans can tactfully handle the fickle nature of Aquarians. There is great attraction between people of both the signs. Geminis and Aquarians have a common outlook towards life. The Aquarius sign is least compatible with Leo and Scorpio. Marriage to an Aquarian will have mixed results. It is fun to live with them as they can talk endlessly and entertain you, but at the same time they can be cold and detached. They also can be disturbingly aloof. You may feel jealous to find that your partner is interested in every human being he meets. But your life will also be full of surprises. As a parent, an Aquarian will encourage his child's imagination, be a patient listener and also teach his child to be independent. There will hardly be any generation gap felt between the parent and the child.

Suitable Fields
People with the Aquarius sign are suited to the fields where ingenuity and independence can be nurtured. They usually have their own set of rules and do not like being ordered around. Aquarians are very creative and technical wizards. Fields that require human interaction are very suitable for them. An Aquarian will enjoy and succeed being a writer, painter, musician, actor, psychologist or a doctor. As they like to guide and give people advice, they can be excellent counselors.

Saturday and Sunday are the lucky days for Aquarians, while the astral stone is Aquamarine. Garnet is the birthstone of Aquarians born in January while Amethyst is for those born in February. Abraham Lincoln, Lord Byron, Virginia Woolf, Clark Gable, Oprah Winfrey and John Travolta are a few of the famous people with the Aquarius sign.

Aquarians have a charming personality and you will be drawn towards them. They will most probably influence you to have a better vision of the world. You will definitely treasure Aquarians as dependent and long-lasting friends.
