TRADITIONAL SYMBOL: the “water bearer” pouring forth original and creative ideas. Original and detached.
“Electrical” energies flow through Aquarians, enhancing their gift of intuition. Spirituality rather than religion is the main focus, science and physics may offer Universal wisdom for many. Aquarius generally understands through logic and simplicity and they expect to witness the “miracles” that are unexplainable!
RULING PLANET: URANUS – The planet of extremes and freedom. It awakens individualism and destroys that which no longer serves; opening to the NEW and exciting future. They tend to be progressive thinkers, often rebellious to the ‘old ways’. Bringing in “fresh” energy for Humanity, intuition is their gift.
Challenge: too much chatter, dispelling the energy
Motto: “I Know” what needs to be done.
Animal Guide: Otter – playful and curious by nature, social and love of “family”. Balance of feminine energy, they are free from jealousy, with no need to control. They don’t like to see others fighting and are non aggressive, unless their “family” is threatened.
Medicine Wheel Clan – BUTTERFLY (Air) To become one, many stages are required; before becoming “carefree”. As a caterpillar, there is a certain “knowing” which allows the process of change. Aquarians are always in “thinking mode”, exploring life; as the wind carries their imagination to many dimensions. They are as unique as each specially marked butterfly – on it’s own journey. They prefer to be lighthearted, leaving the more serious concerns to others.
Plant: Quaking Aspen – The bark is used as a tea to clear toxins; for skin conditions, ulcers and burns. Makes a natural deodorant. The leaves sway gently in the breeze as a ‘song of meditation’.
Direction of Power: North – this is where we recognize our “extended family”, sharing in the dream of future generations. When asked to “get involved”, face the North and receive Wisdom.
Body parts: circulatory system and ankles. Drink lots of water to keep your system “flushed” and elevate your feet after long days of shopping and running around. Massages are excellent for clearing out the toxins. Make the spa a regular routine… yoga is also very helpful in calming your (electrical) nervous system. Perhaps swimming with the Dolphins or a pilgrimage walking a labyrinth, can reveal deeper truths about your life’s purpose.
Power colors: Silver – represents listening to your intuition. It is also for balance and reflection of emotions. Don’t be surprised if you are more “psychic” than usual, silver enhances the ability to receive through “feeling knowing”. Iridescent blue/violet – integrates physical and spiritual energies, increases universal ideals. It also assists in processing information and formulating intuition.
Power stones: amethyst – assists in mental clarity and aligning with your highest potential. This stone is said to enhance psychic abilities and intuition. Blue star sapphire – expands circle of friends, relating to extended family. It is peaceful and calming.
