Aquarius

20 January – 18 February

The Moon squares your sign: small frictions, impatience, sharper words than intended. Leave important conversations for the evening. Venus in tension with your sign: disagreement over wishes or money; do not settle it today. Mars opposite: someone resists you. Seek agreement rather than victory. Mercury in tension: messages misread, delays; reread before sending. New moon: a time for intentions and quiet beginnings.

Say thank you for something specific.

Portrait of the sign

Sun in Aquarius: an identity attached to its freedom: to think differently, to belong without dissolving.

In traditional astrology, this sign acts with independence, originality and detachment. Its element, Air, describes its temperament; its mode, fixed, the way it enters into action; its ruling planet, Uranus (Saturn in the older tradition), the register where it feels most at home.

Moon in Aquarius: emotions at a distance, observed rather than lived: friendship reassures you more than fusion. This line applies to those whose natal Moon is in this sign — the birth chart calculation will tell you.

In love

Venus in Aquarius: you love as a friend: independence, originality, distrust of fusion. Venus never strays more than two signs from the Sun, so it is often in the Sun sign itself or in one of its neighbours. For the full love portrait, read love sign by sign; to compare two birth dates, try the love compatibility test.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dates of Aquarius?

20 January – 18 February, as a rule: the Sun enters a sign at a time that varies from year to year, sometimes by a day. If you were born on the first or last day, the calculation by date and time of birth settles it.

Should I also read my rising sign?

Yes, if you know it: the ascendant describes how the day comes to you, the Sun sign what you make of it. Read both cards. Calculate your ascendant with your time of birth.
