January 20th – February 18th
I am a big believer in the “yin-yang” dualism concept. Every person (every sign) has their good & bad parts and those things together make up who we are. It’s important that we recognize that we have two sides, so we best know how to control our behaviors and reactions.
It’s important to know…
All zodiac signs’ have different characteristics depending on their placement. While the Sun sign is our main identity and most important placement, looking into an individual’s other planets, such as the Moon or Venus, will help us to understand a person better.
While an Aquarius Sun is what actually makes a person “an Aquarius”, other Aquarius Zodiac Sign placements will have the same attributes in a more specific regard.
For example: An Aquarius Sun means the Aquarius traits listed below would be the essence of who you are; your personality. But having an Aquarius Moon means you would demonstrate these qualities in your emotional responses. Or having an Aquarius Mercury would mean that the Aquarius zodiac sign qualities below would be your communication style.
Do you have an Aquarius in your life?
