Oh! The humanity of it all. Aquarius season makes waves but not of water.
Break boundaries and break bread: the Sun’s passage through Aquarius bespeaks a bohemian brotherhood of humankind.
Nicknamed the Water Bearer and looking lofty between Capricorn (the Sea Goat) and Pisces (duh), aloof Aquarius is actually an air sign despite the waters that spill from its symbolic vessel. These are the waters of consciousness — those wavelengths emanating from the mind.
In this light, airwaves make more sense as the kind that will define the moment, seeing that Aquarius rules new forms of communication and the spreading of ideas.
The time is nigh to realize the interconnectedness that will ultimately define humanity’s place under the Sun. What is essential is invisible to the eye as Antoine de Saint-Exupéry wrote in Le Petit Prince. We must all care for each other as the prince cared for his own rose.
When reading personal horoscopes, read your Sun sign for the “big picture” and your rising sign for “where the work is.”
