The Characteristics of Aquarius
Characteristics of AQUARIUS: January 21st to February 19th
Aquarius is the eleventh sign of the Zodiac, and you who are born during this period are usually a humane, quiet and sympathetic type who can, at times, be a little difficult to understand.
General Characteristics
You incline towards the arts, love music and literature and are an enthusiastic theater-goer. Your intuitions, when you are trying to analyse anything deeply, are much to be relied upon, for you are undoubtedly studious and deep-thinking by nature. You have great regard for the people you love.
You are a very energetic person. When you have something in mind that you are anxious to accomplish, you can be independent and self-willed and will react strongly to anyone who may think he can divert you from your purpose.
You can be selfish and more than a little unreliable. You can also be conceited and then you are apt to be almost unbearable in your attitudes, but these occasions will be rare, for generally you are kind and sympathetic to those around you. You like to carry on quietly with your plans and you have a genuine ambition to rise above the lower elements that often surround you.
Some variations according to the actual date you were born
If you were born between January 21st and 31st, you make the widest use of your great intelligence. You are alert to the small – as well as the big – things happening around you and you are so self-disciplined that kindness and courtesy are an inherent part of your nature. You are a born student.
If you were born between February 1st and 10th, obedience is certainly not one of your assets and because of this you quite often find you suffer from disappointments. You are suspicious, find it difficult to trust others, and miss opportunities which may lie right under your nose. You do not give either your hearts or your help to others easily.
If you were born between February 11th and 18th you can get right into the hearts of most people and things. You are really worth knowing. You are very artistic. Whatever you do, you do from the heart and with great concentration. You cannot suffer fools around you. This may make you appear uncharitable at times but is the result of your strong desire for efficiency.
Constitutionally, you are never really very robust. You are inclined to suffer from rheumatism and your circulation is not very good.
‘Luck-bringers’ are as follows:
The colours thought to be best suited and lucky for you are normally either blacks or blues.
The jewel you should wear if possible should be your birth- stone which is the amethyst.
The days of the week most likely to be successful for working out any problem are Mondays or Thursdays.
The month may be any one of three – June, September or October – but never April or May.
Partnerships: Marriage is never hurried into by you. You give it a lot of thought, but when you do marry, you make an extremely loyal and very attentive mate. You invariably find your greatest happiness with either a Gemini type (born between May 21st and June 20th) or a Libra type (born between September 22nd and October 22nd).
Should you choose a Gemini subject, then you can expect your partner to be very intelligent but at times extremely stubborn. It will be best to bear in mind that there will be times when it will be advisable to impart an idea so skilfully that the Gemini mind may regard it as his or her own. Then the idea will be accepted with enthusiasm. Gemini subjects love encouragement and praise.
If you choose to marry a Libra subject, then you may be in for some irritating times. Libra types endeavour to be fair to such a degree that it can wear the patience of Job. They are also extremely generous, sometimes at the cost of those nearest and dearest to them. With Libra types it is essential to admit openly if any mistake is made or fib spoken. Libra types will nearly always forgive any fault which is admitted but woe betide anyone who does not admit to making a mistake.
