Aquarius is a Fixed Air Sign, ruled by Saturn. It is neither the exaltation nor
debilitation of any planet. Air signs promote thought because air can move
quickly, like the mind. Saturn rules old things and the is a Fixed Air Sign, so,
the combination of these two makes Aquarius well suited for old things,
things that donÕt change, and things which are idea based. Because scriptural
revelation is old, unchanging, and coming from the sky, or air, as it were,
therefore Aquarius is associated with these things.


Every twelve years when Jupiter is in Aquarius, called ÒKumbhaÓ in Sanskrit,
the Kumbha Melatakes place in North India. This is the largest gathering of
humans in one place on Earth at any time ever. ItÕs a big event- millions of
Hindus gather at the meeting place of the Three Main Holy Rivers of India,
the Jamuna, Saraswati and Ganges. It is called Kumbha Mela because that is
where the nectar fell from the sky oh so long ago. Kumbha means
ÒwaterpotÓ. Occasionally good things pour down from above, and because of
this happening once long ago, the Kumba Mela still happens every twelve
years. If you want to see Yogis, thatÕs the time and place to do it. They come
down out of their hiding places to all hang out together for a few days.
Aquarius is a good sign for understanding gadgets, science, electrical things,
and so on. Many researchers and scientists have Moon or Mercury in
Aquarius. This sign is known for causing seclusion and depression. Fixed in
the air and ruled by Saturn, it is unreachable and old. When the Moon is in
this Sign the person is ever universal and detached. Aquarians do not make
good friends or lovers in some ways because they are so detached. If they
love, it is for all. They always seem aloof.
