What a Sun in Aquarius means

With the Sun in Aquarius, your identity is built on independence and originality. You feel most like yourself when you are free to think for yourself, connect with like-minded people and work towards a better future.

Your strengths

  • Original, inventive thinker
  • Loyal friend to many
  • Open-minded and accepting
  • Principled and fair
  • Comfortable being different

At your best

At your best, you are inventive, open-minded and generous with your ideas. You accept people as they are and often champion the underdog. Your perspective helps others see possibilities they had not imagined.

Under pressure

Under pressure, an Aquarius Sun may withdraw into logic or become stubborn about a principle. You might detach from your own feelings to cope. Remember that emotions are information too, and sharing them can bring you closer to the community you care about.

Astrology reads the Sun as a symbol, but the star itself is just as fascinating: see NASA’s guide to the Sun.
