Is there someone in your life with whom you’re completely enamored but aren’t sure they even know who you are? That individual is most likely an Aquarius. They’re complex, crystalline, enigmatic, all-knowing, occasionally oblivious, prophetic weirdos, and the fact that they’re veiled in mystery simply adds to the delight of delving into their minds. Also, an Aquarius is constantly hungry. But that will come later.
Aquarius has always been the most perplexing of the zodiac signs for me. I’m not sure I’m alone in this. Perhaps this is why I adore Aquarius so much. There’s something about them, something inherent in their very essence, that if you’re not an Aquarius and you think about this paradox too hard, your head will whirl around, twist off your body, and sail out into space. And if an Aquarius watched that happen, saw your head fly out into the distance, an Aquarius would simply track the trajectory of your flying head, grin pleasantly, and walk away since they had other things on their minds. They’re always preoccupied with something else.
But let’s return to their dichotomous nature for a moment. Not only is Aquarius the only sign ruled by two planets (Saturn and Uranus), but it’s also an air sign (which makes sense because Aquarians are always thinking, thinking, thinking), yet it’s personified by a Water-bearer, a twin set of waves, which speaks to the enormous emotional depth and overabundance of feelings that Aquarians carry with them everywhere. Air and water, intellect and emotion, cognition and feeling, however, are not natural partners; in fact, they clash. Rather than causing strife and confusion, an Aquarius is capable of carrying all of this within themselves and using it to, well, see into the future. Whereas most individuals could not face the weight of the world, of knowing everything there is to know (a Pisces could not handle it at all; a Cancer would be brought to tears), an Aquarius takes all of that knowledge and looks forward to the days ahead, figuring out how to navigate them. (Okay, sometimes an Aquarius breaks down in tears, but then they taste the salt on their lips and become distracted, if not a little turned on, because an Aquarius is a strange, freaky freak.)
All of these inconsistencies, all of this mysticism, all of this… weirdness, makes Aquarians seem odd. They are, after all, legitimately strange! They frequently say things that make others uncomfortable, but this is because the truth makes people uncomfortable. An Aquarius enjoys making people uncomfortable. But they can’t help but know a lot of things and aren’t scared to share their expertise with you. Aquarius is a truth seeker who considers himself an authority on the subject. Only an Aquarius could have copyrighted the phrase What I Know for Sure (Oprah… hello), because only an Aquarius knows everything. The rest of us (Gemini, Capricorn) may believe we do at times, but only an Aquarius truly does. This is why having an Aquarius as a friend is so beneficial. Nobody can provide better advise. Nobody will be able to tell you when you’re lying than you. Nobody will be more willing or capable of assisting you in manifesting the future you desire since they have already seen it unfold, because they are prophets.
Despite this, Aquarius can appear to be distracted. They are frequently late for events. They don’t want to sleep, and sunrise is more of a hint that the night is about to get better for them than a sign of the morning. Internal clocks just do not exist for them. However, this does not imply that they are not productive. The most frightening aspect of an Aquarius is how much they accomplish. Even if the work they’re doing happens while you’re sleeping, an Aquarius is highly productive. In comparison to an Aquarius, we are all always napping.
Here’s a list of notable Aquarians, and don’t tell me none one them hasn’t accomplished more in a single day than you have in your whole life: Winfrey, Oprah. Morrison, Toni Lincoln, Abraham. Davis, Angela Dr. Dre. Lorde, Audre. Edison, Thomas. Washington, Kerry. Blume, Judy. Keys, Alicia. Styles, Harry DeGeneres, Ellen. Ed Sheeran is a British singer-songwriter.
All of those people have accomplished a great deal. The majority of stuff is excellent! And, look, you can’t deny that an Aquarius is doing things you don’t like (see: Sheeran), but you can’t deny that they are getting things done. And that they are exceptionally adept at predicting what other people would enjoy. Because they can predict what people will want in the future, Aquarians are frequently immensely popular (see Sheeran).
But what do Aquarians enjoy? This is the genuine query! We all admire Aquarius and are frequently captivated with them, but what do they enjoy? The truth is that it’s difficult to say! Is Oprah’s list of “favorite things,” which she releases every year, actually things that bring her delight indefinitely? No! Obviously not. Because the list changes every year. As a quirky prophet, they realize that everything is ephemeral, thus no Aquarius lays genuine value on anything material. This is why an Aquarius will advise you to get a tattoo with no meaning since assuming that meaning can ever reach anything approximating permanence is a load of nonsense. Nonetheless, an Aquarius will have tattoos that scream SYMBOLISM!! If you tell an Aquarius that, they will stare you down and vow that whatever meaning you find is all in your imagination. Isn’t that the idea, though? You’ll ponder and perhaps even scream. However, an Aquarius will simply tell you that there is no meaning to anything before taking a long pull off their e-cigarette and dashing and sliding down an icy street with recklessness. You would have toppled if you tried to leave like that. Aquarius is a sign that never falls.
So, what does an Aquarius like to do? Are you starting to question if Aquarians are just completely cerebral mystics who don’t enjoy anything sensual? Stop asking yourself that! Because it is false. In reality, Aquarians are consummate sensualists who enjoy experiencing multiple sensations at once. But what does an Aquarius enjoy the most? I believe I’ve worked it out. An Aquarius enjoys eating. I can tell you one thing: an Aquarius is constantly hungry.
I’m currently thinking about two distinct Aquariuses I’ve met. In addition, I’m thinking about chicken. Before the doom, one Aquarius and I had a doomed love tale (“doomed love,” how redundant! ), but before the doom, he told me about going home one night and being so angry by my absence in his home that he ate a whole chicken. He used his hands! He was also a vegetarian. The other Aquarius and I have a Google doc where we keep track of where we want to eat chicken. What exactly is the link here? It’s both chicken and it’s not. Of course, what it truly is is hunger. An Aquarius is always hungry, and food can sometimes satisfy that desire, but sometimes food is just a stopgap, and sometimes an Aquarius has a hunger that can consume the entire globe.
This hunger is what propels an Aquarius forward. An Aquarius would be a shark if they were an animal because of their appetite. An Aquarius would be a Venus flytrap if they were a flower. An Aquarius would be a vampire if they were a monster. They would be white if they were a color, because they would devour every other hue in existence. They’d be a studded collar if they were jewelry, because they’d be attempting to contain everything that was inside of them, and they’d want to remind you they were a little bit dangerous.
An Aquarius, on the other hand, is a lot more dangerous, because the truth is always dangerous, weird, and exciting, just like an Aquarius, who does things all the time that would make you scared if you were them (like that time I saw Styles stage-dive into a crowd of teenage girls who didn’t have enough upper-body strength to keep him aloft), but that don’t make them scared, because they just know they’ll be fine. As you start to descend a slope, an Aquarius will ride you around on their bike handlebars, encouraging you to lift your arms up with them. Regardless of whether it’s raining or the road is slick and treacherous, join them in raising their arms. You know everything will be fine if an Aquarius tells you to do something. Aquarius is a wise person. You can rely on them.

Even an Aquarius, however, needs to hear that it’s normal to be emotional.

What type of person is Aquarius?

Air is extremely adaptive to its environment. Air, unlike other elements, does not have a single form. They are almost unpredictably unpredictable.

Surprisingly, Aquarius has a hard time expressing emotions. This only adds to the confusion concerning the sign.
Who are the zodiac’s oddballs?
The zodiac’s two oddballs. When these indicators come together, you’ll never know what they’re actually talking about. Sure, Aquarius won’t always comprehend Pisces’ emotional state, but they’re inseparable in terms of intellect and comedy. The reason these two work in the long term is that air signs like Aquarius, if they feel like a link has established and they are comfortable in your presence, they will gradually let you in emotionally. Pisces is one of the greatest water signs to befriend an Aquarius because of this. Pisces is patient, laid-back, and eager to investigate the possibility of extraterrestrial life.
Aquarius + Virgo
These two signs are only friends because they’re both extremely intelligent. This is one of the most popular couples I’ve seen in my social network. When these two meet, you’ll be blown away by their plans to alter the world, their conversations on current events, and the level of respect they have for one another. Because they’re both intellectually driven, these two get along swimmingly. Both signs have a high level of knowledge based on common interests and topics of discussion, and over time, the essence of a lifelong friendship emerges through constant conversations on current projects, ideas bouncing off each other on what to do next, and a sense of dedication evident on both sides.
Libra + Scorpio
The fact that they both live an all-or-nothing lifestyle explains why they get along so well. Scorpio’s natural passion, combined with Libra’s unwavering devotion to all they care about, creates the ideal recipe for a powerful union. These two are always there for each other, not only because it’s expected of them, but because it’s in their nature. Although they will undoubtedly have problems to sort out, these two need never be concerned about their one-of-a-kind bond, which will remain intact regardless of what occurs.
Leo + Virgo
This is one of the most long-lasting zodiac friendships ever. Regardless of Virgo’s ongoing demand for rationality and practicality in all they associate with, and Leo’s persistent need for attention and affection, these two will ALWAYS be friends. Virgo’s level of dependability and overt effort has the potential to make any Leo weak in the knees. Virgos follow whatever plan laid out in front of them, but Leos value stability and goal-oriented people. Virgos adore anyone who has a sense of direction in their lives, whereas Leos are career-oriented and ambitious. Virgos, for the most part, are competent listeners with strong enough opinions to compel any Leo to listen and evaluate them. One thing is certain: these two know how to get the job done right.
