As you might expect, as a professional astrologer, I meet a lot of misunderstandings not just about my work as a stargazer, but also about the technical parts of astrology. The fact that Aquarius is a water sign is one of the most common, albeit harmless, misconceptions. I can understand the misunderstanding here, especially with “aqua” as the prefix, but after you learn more about Aquarius, it becomes evident that it is an air sign. Aquarius, the eleventh and penultimate sign of the zodiac, is the final air sign, which means it deals with air-related topics (which we’ll get into more detail about later). Aquarius is the most imaginative, progressive, rebellious, and humanitarian of all the zodiac signs. While Aquarius is frequently seen plotting revolutions or boldly exhibiting their quirky fashion sense, they also have a sensitive side that demands praise, support, and affection.

What do Aquarians excel at?
Aquarians are all about showcasing their unique qualities and one-of-a-kind capabilities in their professional lives. They enjoy putting their minds to work and thrive in settings where they can come up with new ideas, help others, and be endlessly innovative.
What kind of person is a person born under the sign of Aquarius?
Aquarius, the 11th zodiac sign, is symbolized by the Water Bearer, a symbol of the Gods delivering nourishment to the Earth. Aquarius people are progressive, independent, bright, unique, and idealistic, according to legend. Air is their elemental sign, as it is for Gemini and Libra.
Aquarians, like air, lack a distinct shape and appear to defy classification. Others are joyful and active, while other Aquarians are reserved and kind. Even still, many of the inner attributes shared by these two sorts of people are similar.
For one thing, Aquarius enjoys serious thought, particularly when it comes to societal issues. They see the world as their oyster, and they want to do everything they can to better it and aid others. This is where their humanitarian side shines through; they yearn to bring about positive change, which is an essential feature of Uranus, Aquarius’ ruling planet.
For Aquarians, mental stimulation is one of the most important aspects of happiness. They will rapidly feel bored and uninterested if they do not have it. They also require a lot of time alone to reflect and refuel.
Finally, being an Aquarius typically entails being unique and unconventional. Aquarians are known for embracing their originality and individuality, even if it makes them stand out in an odd or unconventional way from others. This trait draws individuals to fresh, unusual, or “out there” things like edgy fashion, sci-fi/fantasy, the avant-garde, and cutting-edge technology.
The variety of colors and functions of the garnet (January’s gemstone), Aquarians’ most popular birthstone, aptly encapsulates their eccentric tastes and hobbies.
Aquarius and Aquarius
When two Aquarians get together, they quickly become fast friends. Because they have so many characteristics, they have plenty of common interests to bond over. A couple of Aquarians will have plenty to speak about and will bond over their mutual interest in social justicea shared interest that could lead them into activism and other humanitarian initiatives together.
The intimacy factor is where this matchup becomes difficult. It’s simple for two Aquarians to try to hide the elephant in the room (their emotions) by vehemently debating every topic but their own. Bulldozing through the walls in this relationship will take hard work and mutual dedication, but if both Aquarians are prepared to do so, the connection they’ll find on the other side will be one built on firm footing.
Aquarius and Gemini
Gemini and Aquarius are two Air signs with a strong first appeal due to their loose spirits and jovial personalities. Because they’re both interested in a wide range of cultural themes and enjoy analyzing the world around them, these two will have lots to talk about. Wherever this duo travels, there will undoubtedly be chatter.
When the honeymoon period of their relationship wears off, this couple may struggle. Gemini and Aquarius’ ability to endure the relationship’s shift to the real-and-raw will be determined by their desire to be completely honest, even if it hurts.
Aquarius and Libra
Libra and Aquarius, another Air sign, are a lively couple who enjoy being surrounded by hundreds of their “closest friends.” They’re both daring, and their wandering spirits are wonderful complements! This couple is also slow to anger and can keep things lighter in general. A happy and healthy relationship between an Aquarius and a Libra is full of laughing and enjoyment.
When things get a little bumpy, it’s typically due to a lack of closeness. Libra is more impassioned by nature than aloof Aquarius, so these two will have to overcome their predisposition to avoid emotional confrontation. Instead, people must freely and honestly discuss their wishes and requirements. If they do, they’re on their way to a happy life!
Aquarius and Sagittarius
Sagittarius and Aquarius have a natural connection to each other since they both have a strong will to live. Both signs are content to let the other preserve their independence in the partnership, and they appreciate not having to fight for their own. Because Sagittarius and Aquarius are eager to be open with one another, their lives will be full of wonder and curiosity.
However, the downside of this all-or-nothing situation is that both Sag and Aquarius are commitment phobic. This couple is frequently seen in long-term partnerships, although they are hesitant to label anything. This could be due to a fear of the commonplace, rather than a lack of ability to love on someone! Sagittarians and Aquarians will have a successful relationship if they understand that their hesitancy to commit stems from a genuine respect for the other’s independence.
Aquarians must find balance and compromise in order to get along with Aries, Leos, Virgos, and Scorpios.
When it comes to rage, how does Aquarius cope with it?
When confronted with rage or confrontation, Aquarius has just one response: flee. When it comes to rage, Aquarius would rather run away and do their own thing than talk about it, so don’t expect to hear the words “we need to talk” from them anytime soon.
What exactly is an Aquarius flaw?
An Aquarian’s need to be the center of attention might leave them feeling severely hurt if they are ignored. In an effort to reclaim their attention, their peculiarities may become even more apparent. They almost appear to enjoy the bewilderment they cause with their odd observations at times. Because of their quirkiness, their behavior can occasionally border on the odd, and they relish the shock that comes with expressing them. This can be entertaining at times, but it is not always productive.
Is it easy for Aquarius to fall in love?
They are more concerned with the community than with themselves or a love partner. It doesn’t rule out the possibility of Aquarius falling in love. It simply takes a very long time.
What brings joy to Aquarius?
Because air signs are more emotional than other zodiac signs, it’s simple to see why Aquarius is so compassionate.
It can be difficult to know how to please them because they are one of the zodiac’s most compassionate but reserved signs.
What is the Aquarius soulmate’s name?
Geminis, like Aquarius, are air signs with comparable interests and ways of dealing with life events. According to DashaSpeaks, both signs are noted for their quest for knowledge.
In an interview with Bustle, astrologer Lupe Terrones believes that people born under the sign of Aquarius put friendship above everything else in a relationship.
“They won’t have any trouble committing as long as the connection has platonic value,” Terrones added.
“Breaking up with a friend is more difficult for an Aquarius than ghosting a relationship.”
