Aquarius, the water bearer, is one of the three air signs and one of the most intellectual signs of the Zodiac. In general, Aquarians tend to be unpredictable, creative, brainy, but also some of the most thoughtful people of the Zodiac. They appreciate community, humanitarian acts, history, and origins. They are compatible with people who keep them mentally stimulated or they will get bored … real fast. On the flip side, astrological experts share that Aquarius signs like to retreat and spend time alone more than others.
Aquarius season starts on January 20th until February 18th and maybe you know a special person who has a birthday during this time. Any time you give a gift it should be thoughtful and personal, so if you’re looking for some gift inspiration for the special Aquarius in your life—look no further!
