AQUARIUS: January 20 to February 18


THE INNER YOU

The most frequent question you ask is "Why?" You want to understand what makes other people tick. Their lives fascinate you because you hope they'll offer you insight into your own. You have plenty of love to give, and you want nothing more than to have lots of interesting friends, a great woman/man, terrific work and for the world to be a better place and everybody to be happy. Not much to ask, is it? One of your best kept secrets is how shy and insecure you are. You wonder if the people you care about feel the same way about you--that's why you work so hard to make others like you. You want to share yourself, but you're afraid of losing who you are or becoming what other people think you should be. Yet somehow your feelings of insecurity manage to coexist with a belief that you're someone special.

HOW OTHERS SEE YOU

You're usually thought of as a kind of daredevil with an unusual way of looking at things. People enjoy your playful sense of humor, and your ability to shock and amaze them at the same time. They find you willing to discuss new ideas, although you usually end of preferring your own. Others are drawn to your friendliness and enthusiasm, but they withdraw quickly when you turn acid-tongued. Because you need so much personal freedom, you can come off as being unapproachable. And there are some people who get annoyed by your stubbornness.

YOUR BEST TRAITS

You're ready to help anyone at a moment's notice. You think clearly and have the ability to separate emotions from logic. You're also an idealist (Aquarians are always trying to do good in the world) and an expert at dealing with different types of people. Above all, you're willing to allow others the same freedom you insist on for yourself.

YOUR WORST TRAITS

As far as your concerned, you know what's best--and you don't want to hear what anyone else has to say. Your independent way of thinking sometimes borders on arrogance. Even your sense of humor can turn sharp and tactless--you zero in on other people's weaknessess. You use your mind to guard against unwanted emotions, with the result that you're often disconnected to your true feelings.

THE ROMANTIC YOU

One part of you dreams of finding a brilliant and sexy woman/man who'll have a thunderbolt effect on your heart. The other part of you says, "I won't give any woman/man the upper hand." You're self-contained and elusive, but also sensitive and more vulnerable than most people think. Actually, you're a total romantic who believes that perfect love exists, but you hide this feeling because you don't want to seem naive. Your protective device with women/men is an attitude of sweet indifference, and since nothing tantalizes them more, you have plenty of admirers. Your style is to become great friends first and not get caught up too quickly in a heavy-duty romance. You have a definite mind of your own, so you're drawn towards people with intelligence and unusual talents. Your ideal partner is someone you can talk to, laugh with and trust. To you, love means excitment, sharing and intimacy--and the freedom to be you. You're an enchanting blend of true friend and passionate romantic.
