Aquarius

Emotions
Emotional experiences and dealing with emotions themselves tends to be difficult for
the Aquarius. This seemingly emotional detachment is what tends to make the Aquarian
appear a bit cold and remote when it comes to deeply emotional experiences. It isn't
that Aquarians are unemotional people in general, it just takes them awhile to really let
people into their lives. Once they let their guard down, Aquarians are very passionate
and loyal people.

Ideals
As stated before, the Aquarius personality is that of a humanitarian. They have a strong
desire to serve in philanthropic and charitable endeavors. Their societal beliefs are very
idealistic in the sense that they believe that one of their main purposes in life is serving
to benefit the greater good of mankind. It's not uncommon to see an Aquarian
volunteering at the local homeless shelter or generously donating money to various
charities.

Temperament
Aquarians do not like to be boxed-in. If an Aquarian feels like he or she is backed into a
corner, the person committing this huge mistake will no doubt be on the receiving end of
that Aquarian's temper, which can be explosive. Not only that, the typical Aquarius
tends to hold onto bitter feelings and resentments. So, if you cross and Aquarius, don't
expect to be welcomed back with opened arms.

Lifestyle
The Aquarian lifestyle is a little on the unconventional side because the Aquarius
personality is naturally a bit rebellious and non-conformist. People born under this sign
are less than thrilled with the rigidity of typical "nine-to-five" work schedules so they
often hold less conventional jobs in which the schedule varies. Better yet, they choose
jobs that allow them the freedom to make their own schedules and march to their own
drums. Just take a look at the following famous Aquarians and you'll see what we mean.

Oprah Winfrey
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Bob Marley
Charles Darwin
Abraham Lincoln
Sir Francis Bacon
