Voice of Astrology Horoscope for Aquarius, 2011

The Saturn types have a more structured opinion of how life should be lived. Both sides are true at all times. In the general scheme of things, it really takes both Saturn and Uranus people to have some degree of stability as we travel through this life. Aquarius is a fixed sign so they have a somewhat focused thinking process. You can change anything about an Aquarian, however, not their minds. You don't want to mess with this part of them. Their keyword is "I know" and they usually do. It rules the ankles and circulation in our bodies.

Aquarians either feel ahead of the times or way behind their fellow travelers. Nevertheless, these air sign people need to communicate their ideas and thoughts to any and all who will listen. Aquarians approach life through their intellect in a somewhat detached way, and do not really understand those who react to life in a more emotional manner. They love the sciences and research and all that stuff. They do have rather strong bodies however do not like to do any strenuous labor, if they can get away with it. It is the same with restraint, it is look see, and not want to have it enter their lives. Restraint goes against their very life force, as this inhibits their rebellious nature.

These work-oriented people have to love it as they spend much of their time and energy involved in this endeavor. They make good leaders and organizers, as they work well in a large business environment. The genius in any organization to create new innovative thoughts, creates progress.Friendship is a strong suit for the average Aquarian to put on. They make excellent friends and have a somewhat difficult time in personal relationships. This does not mean they cannot be in a marriage or deep loving relationship, however it is sometimes easier to be just a friend. It is hard for Aquarius to be a friend to just one person when they can be a friend to all. If you are their child then this sign can be an excellent parent. In any relationship the Aquarian does not like to have a quarrel or an negative discussion.

The real difficulty in these situations is that their intellect cannot delve into negative behavior easily. They like to keep high minded about things, as if they are an evolved soul that does not like the drama. The blended Aquarian are never extremists, for they value the paved road. In friendship these souls have two kinds of friends, the conservative traditional type, and the unconventional bohemian type. This way they never get bored; they just move from one to the other, whatever their mood during that particular time frame.

I know that for myself I chose the Saturn type of energy for my formative years. Then I graduated to the Uranus style of existence. Now I hope that I have integrated them both. Discipline and the freedom to do what is necessary to exist in the world. It’s really the best of both worlds. It is important to see both sides of the same coin. Without discipline (Saturn), it is hard to harness the sometimes wild Uranus energy that results in chaos. The world seems to have too much Uranus energy as we can see the chaos erupting all over the world. A necessary balance happens to be less chaos and more love. More love demonstrated to the many, with understanding to all nations as well as to the rest of us who live on this benevolent planet. Good times can be had by all who love and understand the nature of the human condition.

We come into this world trusting and loving and wanting to please others. Can we return?

What the Planets are Doing...

The Sun moves into Aquarius January 20th at 2:19 a.m. PST. Now freedom can be felt as a tangible. Aquarius is a sign of the intellectual like Sagittarius. They both love to proselytize about anything that has an interest for them. Expect the unexpected during this time.

Jupiter moves into Aries January 22nd at 9:11 a.m. PST. Are we ready to expand new ideas and projects and hopefully not your waistline. You won't know what to expect however this planet is all about bringing to the forefront new concepts, energy, and enthusiasm, in whatever area it is needed. It is done with sensitivity as in Pisces, and now has moved into the excitement of Aries. Fire and fire combined makes for a change of the energy here on the planet.

January 25th, as the Moon enters Scorpio, a natural deep feeling resonating in our bodies, when Saturn stations and turns retrograde on the same day. Intense time. You can often feel out of sorts and uneasy but you will feel something. Heavy energy upon us so take it easy and not do anything too intensive.

The New Moon in Aquarius is on February 2nd at 6:31 p.m. PST. Begin anew and plan long range goals as well as the ones needed to get through the month. Promote your natural need for freedom and objectivity.

It is also Candelaria, a day of hope and light, and Groundhog Day. Will we have another 6 weeks of winter?

February 3rd, Mercury moves into Aquarius at 2:19 p.m. PST . Think of new ways to create new ideas. This same day Venus is welcomed by Capricorn. A more structured way of showing sensitivity and caring. Not especially a warm fuzzy, however, she shows herself in a more practical way. Not a showy way, however more conservative posture.

The same day the Chinese New Year begins. It is the year of the Rabbit.

February 14th we all celebrate St. Valentine's Day. Nothing planetary happening then, except that the Moon is in Cancer. Don't let your feelings get hurt if things don't go your way.

Have good and happy month.
