The Aquarius Woman in Love



When Aquarius is in love, she feels “together” and integrated. Her heart opens up, and duty is suffused with pleasure. Her experimental nature invents all kinds of delicious ways to keep her partner interested, and she tingles with almost electric stimulation. Love sparks her whole being; her creative juices flow more than ever. She plugs into 220 volts and runs her sleek engine at a consistent, amazingly high rpm. She buzzes with plans and excitement. For once she may feel the future is assured… at least for a while. 

She is miles ahead of everyone in her appraisal of the total potential of the situation. She seems to walk with her head in the clouds, and what she sees up there is anyone’s guess. Probably the future, possibly life in other dimensions. Perhaps she is examining karmic ties. Whatever it is, she’s not telling, at least not yet. 

Secrecy and intrigue are part of her approach. She is a natural weaver of networks, both of people and of vibrations; she has an inherent mystique she wishes to keep and develop. She won’t stand on the corner and shout her happiness to the wind, but she probably will subscribe to all the international journals that can teach her about human relations, sexuality, futuristic lifestyles, and options for the woman in love. She does not look for role models exactly, but she studies so as to be prepared, made secure by her knowledge and ready to try an exciting new path. 

She pleases her man by taking on equal responsibility in any part of the relationship that seems to need it. She may choose to play the role of sexual leader or the financial follower. She can cook, sew, hold his hands, listen and teach; she can be a good hostess, lover, partner, assistant, chef or healer. She can be painfully firm, stubborn and independent, even in love, but she will give her lover equal time if he asks for it. She is fair and tolerant of his foibles, and she will put with more than will many other women. Problems seldom faze her. She is apt to treat them as mental challenges. 

She can be a divine equal. She is ahead of her times in her ability to play any role, including the “male” one. She will not try to possess her man, to make him account for each penny or peccadillo. She gives a man space and expects the same from him. Subscribers to the double standard need not apply. 

Even in love she keeps her head, and she can keep his head above water in the direst circumstances. She has a deliberate practicality that never leaves her that she can use to protect her man. She also can make him feel that she knows something he doesn’t, but that whatever she knows she will loyally use in their mutual interest. 

She is a stimulating, more or less eccentric lover. She has a streak of unpredictability, the courage and desire to strand out, to be unique. She wants to be different from other women, and she does everything she can to distinguish herself, especially in her man’s eyes. For example, if he’s a tennis nut, she will go out of her way to take tennis lessons so she can keep up with him. Cheerleading or waiting on the sidelines with sandwiches is not her style. The easy way out, the predictable, never attracts her. And the man who is love with her will be thrilled, not threatened by this aspect of her personality. 

The Aquarius Woman in love is at her most balanced.
