Aquarians are always ahead of their time. They are one of a kind, visionary and creative. As Joanna Woolfolk says in The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need Aquarians "not only march to a different drummer, they make up new music as they go along".

Aquarians form their own opinions, disregarding and perhaps even disdaining the orthodox. They stand by what they believe with almost Taurean stubbornness, the one unchangeable aspect of this sign. They are open-minded but once they make a decision, their mind (at least on that subject) closes.

People born under this sign are always looking for something new and exciting. They avoid routine and anything else that may lead to boredom. Aquarians are outgoing and find friends to share their adventures easily.

An Aquarius will always follow his or her dreams. They don't like to feel they're in limiting situations and will avoid people (and jobs) that make them feel that way. Aquarians tend to avoid hard work and will fulfill their potential best working with ideas (and teams of people to implement them).
