Most people know that, but it seems like some astrologers just can't be bothered to consider what that means. We acknowledge that Aquarius represents technology and innovation, even science. We even know enough to explain that the air element, of which Aquarius is one of three in the zodiac, is intellectual and detached. Yet when we talk about Aquarius, many astrologers talk as though Aquarius were just as sappy and emotional a sign as Pisces. It's really bizarre to someone like myself who actually understands just how neurotic and harmful these past two thousand years have been. The Piscean Age brought us out of the Arian warrior mentality, sure, but it hardly eliminated violence or hatred, it just painted it in pretty, idealistic colors and pretended it had the moral high ground to do harm to others, which is typical of the Pisces archetype, even if those with Pisces strong in their charts resent the exposition. Pisces doesn't like conflict, so it attempts to inspire others to do it's violence for it while it pretends everything's great and the sky smells of honeydews and poetry. The archetype lacks resolve or personal accountability, and I, for one, am happy to let the door hit it in the butt on the way out. Looking closer at Aquarius, though, and its bearing of waters, we see that water represents spirituality and emotion, but that rather than being in the water, Aquarius flies above it, scooping it up into conveyances. In doing so, Aquarius is able to make use of these qualities without being submerged in their depths. Your joys, wishes, flaws, and fears make you special and, when your sun sign is combined with the other planets and placements in your birth chart, it creates a distinctive celestial profile that serves as your cosmic fingerprint.In other words, they keep an emotional distance while still understanding the value and purpose of emotion and sentimentality. This astrological placement sheds light on your innate gifts, as well as your hard-to-see blind spots. Your sun sign is determined by your date of birth and represents your core personality, sense of self, basic preferences, romantic compatibility, and ways in which you move through the world. (Your Rising Sign is another very important placement, and you can read about it in our guide to rising signs here). The position the Sun occupied at your exact moment of birth is known as your "sun sign" (sometimes referred to as "star sign" or "birth sign"), and it's the cosmic launching pad for both beginners and professional astrologers. We can depend on its daily performance (including inspiring sunrises and dramatic sunsets), as well as its location in the sky. But from our vantage here on planet Earth, the Sun is in constant motion. Every sign is illuminated by its own point of view, complete with powerful strengths and exhausting weaknesses.įrom an astronomical perspective, we know that the Sun doesn't move, as its stability anchors the entire solar system. Over the centuries, each sign has developed its own associations - including myths, animals, and colors - and its own characteristics. Although astrology is an extremely complex study, the most fundamental principle of astrology centers on the 12 familiar star signs of the zodiac. The four elements - air signs, fire signs, water signs, earth signs - all work together to create a comprehensive whole, which shows up in your life as your unique personality traits. Every sign is a powerful, vital piece in the puzzle that is the zodiac.
