Hi Archie, I am an Aquarius, and I am impressed by your pages. However, I do not understand why you choose to belong to the group of astrologers who keep describing Aquarius as emotionally cool and detached. I am a passionate, tactile, very loving person and I resent these statements. – Hana, Morocco

Hana, thanks for your question.  I certainly don’t want to offend anyone by describing Aquarius as cool and detached.  However, we are dealing with generalisations.  All things being equal, Aquarius IS cool and detached.  The sign is ruled by Saturn, a planet that tends to be emotionally disciplined. One could never describe Aquarius, in isolation, as being ‘passionate’ or ‘tactile’.

Looking at your horoscope, it seems that you have the Moon in Cancer – unless you were born after 11.34 pm, Central European Time.  As I keep saying, in the female horoscope the Moon can be just as important as the Sun, and people with the Moon in Cancer can be very sensitive, as well as being emotionally aware, and they can get very close to other people and their problems.

Also, at the time of your birth Venus, the planet of love, was making a powerful, 120-degree aspects to Mars – it was also making a conjunct to Jupiter.  This creates passion as well as generosity, and I’m sure you have no problems letting go of your feelings.

At the same time, the Sun is making a conjunction to Venus.  This conjunction is not entirely fortunate – at times in your life other people might have tried to hem you in, and prevent you from expressing your fundamental, emotional self.  And perhaps you resented them?  And being an Aquarius, you got the kind of freedom and independence you deserved.
