My star sign is Aquarius, the Water Bearer and is a fixed sign ruled by Uranus.

                                         

Aquarians basically possess strong and attractive personalities. They fall into two principle types: one shy, sensitive, gentle and patient (thats me); the other exuberant, lively and exhibitionist, sometimes hiding the considerable depths of their character under a cloak of frivolity. 

Both types are strong willed and forceful in their different ways and have strong convictions, though as they seek truth above all things, they are usually honest enough to change their opinions, however firmly held, if evidence comes to light which persuades them that they have been mistaken. They have a breadth of vision that brings diverse factors into a whole and can see both sides of an argument. Consequently they are unprejudiced and tolerant of other points of view. This is because they can see the validity of the argument, even if they do not accept it themselves.

Both types are humane, frank, serious minded, genial, refined, sometimes ethereal and idealistic, though this last quality is tempered with a sensible practicality. They are quick, active and persevering without being self-assertive, and express themselves with reason, moderation and sometimes, a dry humor.

They are nearly always intelligent, concise, clear and logical. Many are strongly imaginative and psychically intuitive.

Both types need to retire from the world at times and become temporary loners (thats me). They appreciate opportunities for meditation or, if they are religious, of retreats. Even in company they are fiercely independent, refusing to follow the crowd. They dislike interference by others, however helpfully intended and will accept it only on their own terms. Normally they have good taste in drama, music and art and are also gifted in the arts, especially drama.

Among the faults to which they are liable are fanatical eccentricity, wayward egotism, excessive detachment and an inclination to retreat from life and society and a tendency to be extremely dogmatic in their opinions.
