This from my friend Andrea who somehow was born knowing something about the zodiac-she can tell you by sensing what your sun sign is–or ascendant — it seems like a natural knowing. I find her amazing.
About Aquarius:
If Aquarius were a time of day, I think it would come before dawn, when the world still sleeps and only the bravest souls are out scouting around to see what the new day might bring. They work best in the quiet and alone, so they can hear their own thoughts. In the shifting order of things, they try to mark the places where the essential lies. There’s no time to waste. It’s imperative to try to see what’s coming so they can tell the others, who depend on them.
