Planets in Aquarius

Moon

The Moon in Aquarius produces emotions and responses that are expressed with detachment and reserve. Their imagination is fertile, and it produces a lot of creative energy. They're very imaginative and broad-minded, but they're also likely to be somewhat impractical, and they can seem unconventional and eccentric in their responses to everyday problems.

They are generally friendly to all, but in a rather impersonal, cool, and aloof way. However, they may only seem cold because they have difficulty understanding the real emotions of another person. They are good at observing and analysing others, but they may lack a true understanding of the needs and feelings that other people have. An interesting conversationalist, they are a fascinating person, and a good friend. They relate well to humanity, if not always to individuals, and the placement often denotes someone who has very determined humanitarian instincts, and who participates in activities directed toward the homeless or poor.

Stubborn, wilful and brusque, they have difficulties in their relationships due to the insensitive attitude they so often reflect towards their partner's feelings. . A little on the high-stung side, they don't like things to get to boring and routine. Possessiveness makes them feel trapped, and even during the best of times, they may demand the freedom to come and go as they please. The quickest way to end a relationship for them is to have the other person take them for granted and stop challenging them in a variety of ways.

The physical home is not especially important to them, and they may have rather unconventional living arrangements or change their residence often. Some may describe their lifestyle as modern, offbeat or 'bohemian'.

Mercury

Mercury in Aquarius produces a mind that is original, abstract and detached. Speech and communication is intellectualised, ingenious and overtly friendly. Thoughts are rarely organised, rather arriving in fragments and flashes which are often the seeds of invention and progress. Their unique approach will prompt some to label them as being a little eccentric. Their ideas may sometimes be considered very progressive and some may be well ahead of their time.

They are very intuitive, and an excellent judge of character. However, being so fair-minded, they tend judge people by what they do or what they seem to know, rather than what position they occupy or who they are.

They're witty and open to a wide range of ideas, but at times, they become mentally fixed in their opinions and very stubborn. They have no respect for tradition and little concern for the lessons of the past, and they like to do things that are unusual just to shake things up and create controversy. They believe strongly in equality and fair play, and support ideas that assist those less fortunate than themselves.

They are very verbal and enjoy expressing their views to anyone who will listen; both speaking and writing come easily for them. However, although they are talkative and social, they often come off as rather cerebral and aloof, and it may be hard for them to find common ground in many social circles.

Venus

Venus in Aquarius gives a romantic side that is cool, calm and detached. They love with friendly detachment and remain loyal if allowed plenty of freedom. They set their own rules of behaviour, and have little regard for what their family, peers or society think. Their attitudes and morality may be unusual, and out of step with society.

They are popular and well liked, and have a sparkle in their personality that usually produces many friends. Not a romantic, they are so impersonal and aloof. Indeed, they are often unaware when friends are becoming romantically attracted to them; the possibility may just not enter their mind.

Romantic attractions that do occur are often sudden, and in some way unusual; they may end just as suddenly as they began. They love their freedom so much that they're ready to run at the slightest provocation, which results in late marriages for most. A permanent partner will have to be a friend first and a lover second. They value their individuality very highly, and find it hard to allow a partner tell them how to live or what to do. However, they are willing to respect the independence and ideals of their partner, and can therefore succeed in an open and understanding relationship.

Mars

In Aquarius, the energies of Mars are focused on intellectual pursuits, and mental energies are highest here. Physical and sexual energy are channelled toward the mind. Good concentration helps to produce a very commendable stamina, although a somewhat dogmatic approach. Aquarius is a fixed sign and they are stubborn most of the time. They demand the freedom to speak frankly, and operate in their way.

They have good organisational abilities and they tend to be good leaders who can meet challenges with serenity and poise. They think of themselves as open-minded, but their discussions often become heated arguments, and they rarely give in to an opposing view. They are an active reformer with little respect for traditional ways, and could never work well under authoritarian direction. They can even be contemptuous of tradition unless it is substantiated with logic.

Like the many other aspects of their life, sexually they are intrigued by anything new or unconventional. For them, variety is the spice of life. However, once they have found a mate they are usually stable and dependable.

Jupiter

Jupiter in Aquarius expands mental activity, producing oratory skills and genius. They are impartial and democratic in every respect and can accept people at face value without regard to distinctions of race, creed or class. Their great tolerance and understanding helps them to succeed in many of their endeavours relating to people. They can approach major projects and problems with fresh and original ideas. However, they can be somewhat lacking in discipline and they they don't tend to seek out responsibility very often. A lack of interest in material matters may limit prosperity.

Saturn

Saturn in Aquarius limits or controls the overt friendliness of Aquarians while teaching them how to absorb information more thoroughly and show leadership qualities. Their thinking is both democratic and scientific, and although they have a conservative attitude, inventive and original approaches also come easily to them.

They are a good friend, responsible, impartial and loyal. However, they may find it hard to make friends and pride may make them a social loner. Often, this placement produces a view of the future that is rather pessimistic and bleak. They may be inclined to work toward the betterment of some aspect of society.

Uranus

Uranus in Aquarius often is linked to inventions, rebellion and advanced space travel. People born with this placement are likely to introduce trends and ideas that are original, inventive and advanced.
