I basically possess strong and attractive personalities. They fall into
two principle types: one shy, sensitive, gentle and patient; the other
exuberant, lively and exhibitionist, sometimes hiding the considerable
depths of their character under a cloak of frivolity. Both types are
strong willed and forceful in their different ways and have strong
convictions, though as they seek truth above all things, they are
usually honest enough to change their opinions, however firmly held, if
evidence comes to light which persuades them that they have been
mistaken. They have a breadth of vision that brings diverse factors into
a whole, and can see both sides of an argument without shilly-shallying
as to which side to take. Consequently they are unprejudiced and
tolerant of other points of view. This is because they can see the
validity of the argument, even if they do not accept it themselves. They
obey the Quaker exhortation to "Be open to truth, from whatever source
it comes," and are prepared to learn from everyone.
Both
types need to retire from the world at times and to become temporary
loners. They appreciate opportunities for meditation or, if they are
religious, of retreats. Even in company they are fiercely independent,
refusing to follow the crowd. They dislike interference by others,
however helpfully intended, and will accept it only on their own terms.
Normally they have good taste in drama, music and art, and are also
gifted in the arts, especially drama.
In
spite of the often intensely magnetic, forthcoming and open personality
of the more extrovert kind of Aquarian, and of their desire to help
humanity, neither type makes friends easily. They sometimes appear to
condescend to others and take too little trouble to cultivate the
acquaintance of people who do not particularly appeal to them.
They do not give themselves easily - perhaps their judgment of human
nature is too good for that - and are sometimes accounted cold. But once
they decide that someone is worthy of their friendship or love, they
can exert an almost hypnotic and irresistible mental attraction on them
and will themselves become tenacious friends or lovers, ready to
sacrifice everything for their partners and be faithful to them for
life. However, they are sometimes disappointed emotionally because their
own high personal ideals cause them to demand more of others than is
reasonable. And if they are deceived their anger is terrible. If
disillusioned, they do not forgive.
I work best in group projects, provided that they are recognized as
having a leading part in them. They have a feeling of unity with nature
and a desire for knowledge and truth that makes them admirable
scientists, especially astronomers and natural historians.They
may excel in photography, radiography, electronics - anything connected
with the electrical and radio industries
Among the faults to which i am liable are fanatical eccentricity, wayward egotism, excessive detachment and an inclination to retreat from life and society, and a tendency to be extremely dogmatic in their opinions. I can be a threat to all they survey or a great boon for humanity in general. Circumstances - for example, continuous opposition to a cause they hold dear - may cause the atrophy of the openness of mind that is one of the most attractive traits of mine. They may express a lack of integrity in broken promises, secretiveness or cunning. Simmering anger and resentment, rudeness or, worse, a tense, threatening silence which may suddenly burst out in eruptions of extreme temper, these are all part of the negative side of me. This can also reveal itself in a sustained hatred for enemies that is capable of enlarging itself into a misanthropy toward the whole of mankind.
