Aquarius Traits & Personality
Aquarius is symbolized by the water bearer. But don’t let it confuse you. This is not a water sign. This is the final air sign of the zodiac. They are focused on solving higher-level problems and ideas in life. They might not be as interested in romantic relationships like Libra, or lower-level celebrity gossip, like Gemini. They’re here to make societal changes.
To bear water means to bear positive emotions and share them with the world. This sign cares deeply about making a positive impact in the world and taking care of those who are less fortunate.
Ruled by Uranus and Saturn, Aquarius is a rebel at heart and can really take on an unorthodox, revolutionary approach to what they do in life. Aquarius has the reputation of being cold and aloof because they are here to work on “higher” transpersonal issues that deal with society, large groups, and organizations.
Aquarius Destiny & Soul Purpose
The Aquarius is here to serve and uplift humanity and to live out the Promethean mythos, bringing the proverbial fire (light, awareness, power) to mankind. Think of Nicola Tesla (albeit a Cancer, not an Aquarius). They are here to work in fields related to technology, humanitarian efforts, non-profits, and various large-scale social causes that work to make life easier for people.

What is Aquarius Like in Love & Relationships?
When it comes to sweep-you-off-your-feet romance, that’s not Aquarius. They are more interested in ideas. This is why you have to connect with them intellectually before anything else. Aquarius is an air sign, which is all about the mind and intellect.
They make amazing friends, however. Aquarius rules over friendships and belonging to groups or organizations. It is about the collective and what the collective does to change the world, so to speak.
Aquarius Soulmate
The perfect soulmate for an Aquarius is someone who shares their mission, their vision for humanitarian service or massive social change. Libra, Sagittarius, or Gemini make the best partners for them, as these signs share the intellectual temperament and need for freedom and adventure.

Aquarius Friendships
Aquarius is THE sign of friendship. Friends are everything to an Aquarius. They are more important than romantic partnerships. It’s because the last air sign is put on earth to tackle “bigger” things than personal romantic love and indulgence.
