10 Things You Only Know If You’re An Aquarius (2024)

If you are born between 20 January and 18 February, you are an Aquarius. Ruled by both Saturn and Uranus, you are able to channel your unique and innovative spirit into productive work. You also value your independence, and you need to have a certain amount of freedom in your life to do as you please. You thrive in group settings and you have the potential to be a community leader, but you may often feel like an outsider or need to take time to be alone.

Below, 10 things you would only know if you’re an Aquarius.

You don’t like to be tied down to one friend group

You’re very social, and you may know a ton of different people from all different walks of your life. However, you probably only have a select few friends who know you well. You may like to bounce around between different circles, and you could periodically need space from your friends. You never want to feel like you’re losing your individual identity within a group of people.

You don’t follow trends

If everyone is watching a certain TV show or buying a trendy designer piece, you usually don’t follow along. You may even actively go against what everyone else is into at the moment in order to be your own person. You tend to have your own distinct personal style, which remains the same from season to season. Yes, Harry Styles is an Aquarius.

You’re low key a really hard worker

You’re always working to be a better version of yourself, and you’re able to put in the everyday groundwork to accomplish your goals. You’re also always thinking about the future and planning ahead for what’s next. However, you may take on too much sometimes, or you could beat yourself up for not doing everything perfectly.

You have outspoken opinions

You are the person who says what everyone else is thinking but is too afraid to say. You may not worry so much about offending people with your viewpoints, and you kind of like the shock factor that comes with voicing your out-there ideas. You’re also very set in your opinions, and it may be difficult for other people to change your mind once it’s made up.

You like to have constant change going on in your life

When your life starts to feel too routine, you get the urge to make major changes. You’re not someone who can live in the same home or have the same job your entire life, and from time to time you need to switch up the scenery to keep things interesting. You also like to always be growing and challenging yourself by entering into unfamiliar situations.

You can be kind of a loner

You like your space, and you can’t be around a huge crowd of people for too long. It may appear that you’re extroverted and community oriented, but you also crave your alone time. You’re skilled at forming communities, but you may prefer to connect with everyone from afar. This is probably the reason why you’re so adept with social media.

You like to be your own boss

There’s nothing that annoys you more than having people tell you what to do or how to act. When someone else’s rules don’t make sense to you, you may not see the point in following them. You might even want to have a job where you work for yourself, because you probably need the freedom to make up your own schedule.

You’re a risk taker

No goal is ever too far fetched for you to pursue. You’re always coming up with innovative ideas to explore, and you’re usually willing to try out any unusual experience. You may constantly be thinking of the future and what’s next for you, so you like to stay ahead of the curb and try out new plans before anyone else has done them.

It’s difficult for you to show emotion in your relationships

You may get criticised for not being open enough with your feelings in your close relationships. However, that doesn’t mean you’re not emotional, you just have to work on vocalising how you feel. It could be that you’re always replaying conversations in your head or building up a story about what the other person might be thinking. It’s important to realise that others can’t read your mind though.

You stand behind the causes that you care about

You are able to envision an ideal way of living, so you may like to get involved in groups that promote progress in some area of life. You might have a specific cause that you’re super passionate about, and you are very vocal about your opinions on it. You tend to feel more fulfilled when you’re bringing people together and helping to better the lives of others.
