You have a strong interest in ideas that are different from what you normally know and encounter, and you are much more tolerant of different ways of living. Even people’s usually irritating traits do not bother you at this time. Also your sense of humor is much greater than usual, and you can appreciate the dance of life in all its glory.

Today you will find it easy to be yourself. However, you should work alone and for your own benefit. It is not that you are feeling hostile or resentful of others becoming involved in your work, but that you do not want to be dependent upon others for support or encouragement. Your life is no doubt filled with projects that you have begun at various times. You may not always be aware of their significance, and you may be acting quite unconsciously in some ways, but these projects are important nevertheless. Now is a good time to take stock of them and to examine what state they are in. If you must make new beginnings in your life to adjust imbalances that have developed, this is the time to do it. Otherwise put most of your energy into firming up the activities you are presently involved in.

Just figuring out what you want — and sticking to it — is enough of a challenge for ever-shifting Aquarius. Your sign is ruled by Uranus, the planet of surprises and sudden moves.

You may look like the boy or girl next door, but most Aquarians are eccentric beings. What’s in that package may be quite different than the often clean-cut wrapper suggests. Although you may come across as light and superficial, you’re a true visionary with a lot of complex layers, and you may secretly believe that nobody can truly understand you. This leads you to settle for less-qualified candidates, just to avoid being alone.

Rather than get hung up on a bad match (you can obsess over a breakup for years), Aquarians should mingle in social circles that reflect your deepest interests. Aquarius is the sign of groups, friendship and humanitarian pursuits. Join a network of people who share your beliefs — like environmental protection or animal rights — and you’ll likely meet a mate who shares your ideals. Wouldn’t you love to date a best friend with whom you can kick back, laugh AND save the world?

Aquarius is a rather unemotional sign—they are reasonable and rational and ultimately concerned with equality and justice. It may be difficult for them to express feelings because everything is channeled through their intellect. They show love through words rather than emotions and can appear detached and remote.

Turn your attention to what is working in your life, even if your troubles surround you this week. There’s possibility inherent in all of your troubles, it just takes special effort to find it. By being emotionally present and honest you’ll be able to keep it together even when it feels like things are falling apart.

Be careful Aquarius, ‘cause you might just get what you’re going for. Do you actually want what you’re working so hard to get? Will it make you happy and improve your life? Things are about to change and your job is to create a world that you want to be in, instead of just pursing one in which you “win”.

AQUARIUS

You are in a bit of a spiritual crisis but it will pass once the Sun moves into your birthday sign on the 22nd. For the outwardly revolutionary spirit you are, you are inwardly quite conservative and status-conscious. Yet, the world’s perception of you in this instance is correct, because the fear side of you is old and karmic in nature. If you run with a new idea, it will seed your future over the next five years, provided it has universal and/or humanitarian appeal. You are also one of the signs most likely to experience a new relationship over the next year when your sign is rocked by powerful beginning eclipses. Regardless, there is a playmate/cohort who has been viewing you from afar and come end of the month, may make their presence felt. Time for some fun and games!
