Aquarius is a fixed air sign, ruled by Uranus in modern astrology, and the tradition links it with groups, ideas, friendship and independence. Astrologers read solar eclipses as stronger new moons, marking beginnings that may take months to show their shape. The opposition from Jupiter is often taken to enlarge whatever is at stake, for better or toward excess. One practical step is to notice which shared projects or circles draw your attention, and let plans settle before acting on them.
