The Tao of Astrology
Aquarius Rising With Aquarius the revolutionary rising, Leo the magical child is setting. On a biospheric level these people usually have interesting faces with otherworldly, sparkling eyes and a strong nose. Aquarius Rising folks are the humanitarians of all the Rising Signs, expressing persona in highly original and unconventional ways, contrary to established modes of behaving. Individuality and freedom are the pinnacles of their highly rebellious characters. They are inventive and unique. With their minds tuned to the future and the emerging paradigm, they seek the road less traveled. They are here to think in ways that are not taught to think. Of all the persona styles this one is the most unpredictable and eccentric, usually gleaming with an aura of electricity. The planetary champions of Aquarius are Saturn and Uranus, the past and the future. With Aquarius Rising the old guard Saturn has a definite influence over the personality based on its sign, house, and aspects. Wherever you find Uranus by house and by aspects to personal planets, you’ll also see its influence on the persona. If Aquarius Rising is not expressing identity in shocking, reforming ways, then the shadow crawls out of the unconscious transforming the person into the mad scientist devoid of emotion. Aquarius Rising can act very cold, unreliable, and aloof. Spiritually, Aquarius Rising has the Promethean mission of overthrowing the status quo with revolutions of consciousness that emerge from the intense contact with the extreme polarities of the universe. The spiritual genius’ endpoint is to pioneer a new civilization that unites the wisdom of the ancients with the possibility of the future. Cosmically, they can ride the winds of freedom and inspire others to move with the synchronistic flow as well. They come to master the principle of individuation. Interestingly enough, when Aquarius Rising lowers that freedom fighter mask to initiate awareness through relationships, the style best suited for the task is Leo. At the heart level these people are intensely romantic with the Sun governing their experience of relating. Visions of love burst from within. Anyone with Leonine traits will stimulate their desire for intimate union and friendship. Aquarius Rising yearns for a dramatic, creative companion who can take care of heart matters while they are off saving the world through raw genius. They are learning to express the principle of creativity through partnerships. The Sun reflects Leo in the natural zodiac and its sign, house, and aspects will describe how and where these people can open their hearts to love and affection. If the Sun is in the 8th House of Eternal Mystery relationships will take on a deep, mysterious flavor. If it’s down in the 3rd House of Perception & Intelligence love will need to be mentally stimulating, a sharing of minds becomes central to any partnership. Aquarius Rising needs to balance individuality and progressive perspectives with the sacred warmth of the heart to actualize the axis of life. Their life intent is to express unconventional creative individuality. Uniqueness is the key to relationships and living their original dharma.
