Those born under the Western Zodiac sign of Aquarius are imaginative, intuitive, and philanthropic. They often see themselves both as individuals and as a part of the greater whole of humanity. Aquarians tend to polarize themselves and others with their directness and the philosophies they live by. Aquarians fall into two categories - those who are gentle, quiet, and sensitive, and those who are loud, lively, and exuberant. These may seem like opposite traits for a single sign to hold, but there are many more commonalities between Aquarians that tie them together with others of their same sign.
All
Aquarians value reason and logic and only under extreme circumstances
(such as when they dogmatically believe in proving a point so strongly
that they are willing to throw rationality aside to prove their point).
This is a challenging sign to figure out for some because of their
seemingly contradictory natures. They are naturally independent yet
humanitarian. They typically enjoy people but also need time to
themselves. They are artistic and imaginative, yet can take these same
traits and apply them to logic and come out with new and fresh ideas.
Aquarians can also come off as know-it-alls sometimes, and don’t always do what they say they are going to. The reason is that they want to reserve the right to change their mind so they can always do what feels right in the moment. Others may have a hard time understanding this and Aquarians can come across as selfish, judgmental, and even even rude or hateful. Aquarians need meditation time to gather and understand their thoughts, especially since they live a lot of their waking life on autopilot.
Below are descriptions of how Aquarius is affected by each of the 12 Chinese Zodiac signs. If you don't know your Chinese Zodiac sign, then I recommend finding your birthday on this chart.
Aquarius born during the Year of the Dog...
Aquarians born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Dog are represented in Primal Astrology by the Chameleon. The natural free-wheeling curiosity of Aquarius is tempered here by the Dog’s tendency to worry about the details. However, this is one of the most humanitarian and philanthropic of all signs. Even if Chameleons need a lot of time to themselves they can also make large strides in humanitarian ventures, though they must be careful of becoming too dogmatic about their beliefs.

Aquarius born during the Year of the Dragon...
Aquarians born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Dragon are represented in Primal Astrology by the Leopard. Leopards are typically among the more exuberant of Aquarians. In fact, they are also one of the more opinionated as well. Leopards often find themselves the de facto leaders of teams they are on, not because they want to lead, but because others want them to. Leopards have to be careful not to fall too in love with their own ideas and ignore the greater good for their own personal gain.

Aquarius born during the Year of the Horse...
Aquarians born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Horse are represented in Primal Astrology by the Unicorn. Of course, a unicorn is not a real creature, but it is exactly the fantasticness of them that suits Aquarians born during the Year of the Horse. These individuals are standouts wherever they go. They tend to be among the more eccentric Aquarians and are also more likely to voice their opinion. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Unicorn by clicking here.
Aquarius born during the Year of the Monkey...
Aquarians born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Monkey are represented in Primal Astrology by the Dolphin. Dolphins are among the most intellectually gifted of all Primal Zodiac signs and also among the most naturally curious. Mental stimulation is the name of the game for this sign, while the mere thought of boredom will send most Dolphins running (or swimming) for the hills. Monkey intensifies Aquarius’s imaginative reasoning but lessens Aquarius’s desire to help others or the greater good. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Dolphin by clicking here.
Aquarius born during the Year of the Ox...
Aquarians born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Ox are represented in Primal Astrology by the Walrus. Walruses are much more likely than other Aquarians to be quiet and reserved, and this makes them well suited for intellectual pursuits. However, it will be easy for this sign to retreat from the world in pursuit of bringing their ideas to life. They are hardworking and determined individuals who like to do things their own way. Mad scientist types often belong to this sign. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Walrus by clicking here.
Aquarius born during the Year of the Pig...
Aquarians born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Pig are represented in Primal Astrology by the Pufferfish. The soft spoken but thoughtful Pig brings an added sociability to these Aquarians. Members of this sign are individuals in every way. They like to do things their own way and can easily change their mind when new information comes along, or if they just happen to feel like it. Pufferfish also tend to be more naive than other Aquarians and are more likely to be fooled by others who convince them what they are doing is for the greater good.

Aquarius born during the Year of the Rabbit...
Aquarians
born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Rabbit are represented in
Primal Astrology by the Sloth. Sloths are unsurprisingly a bit lazier
than other Aquarians but they also have the best taste and appreciation
for beauty. These are likely to be among the more quiet and reserved
Aquarians who are less likely to be confrontational and more likely to
be sensitive than their Aquarian peers. There is a danger of Sloths
letting their fear of making waves prevent them from fulfilling their
destinies. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Sloth by clicking here.
Aquarius born during the Year of the Rat...
Aquarians
born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Rat are represented in
Primal Astrology by the Meerkat. Meerkats are big dreamers but are less
likely to share their ideas than other Aquarians. Meerkats enjoy solving
problems and taking well planned out risks. These individuals are both
imaginative and intellectual and have a tendency to fall in love with
their own ideas. They are more likely than other Aquarians to become
stressed out regularly and less likely to sacrifice their own happiness
for the greater good. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Meerkat by clicking here.
Aquarius born during the Year of the Rooster...
Aquarians
born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Rooster are represented in
Primal Astrology by the Bird-of-Paradise. Aquarius’s eccentricity and
outgoing nature are intensified by the Rooster, along with their
confidence and self-assurance. Birds-of-Paradise are bright, colorful
individuals who others can’t help but notice when they walk into a room.
Rooster’s influence also brings with it intuition and practicality,
but also arrogance and the constant need for flattery. You can read

Aquarius born during the Year of the Sheep...
Aquarians
born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Sheep are represented in
Primal Astrology by the Handfish. The unique Handfish is among the most
creative signs in the Primal Zodiac. Their ideas are often so ahead of
their time that others have a hard time understanding their vision. The
Sheep brings an artistic charm to these individuals, but also
self-doubt, particularly when others don’t understand them. Handfish
love projects and have to work harder than other Aquarians to make
themselves happy. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Handfish by clicking here.
Aquarius born during the Year of the Snake...
Aquarians
born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Snake are represented in
Primal Astrology by the Boa Constrictor. Boa Constrictors are more
likely than other Aquarians to be mysterious, graceful, and well
mannered, but the influence of the Snake also means the potential for
jealousy and icy hostility. Boa Constrictors are among the least
interested in humanitarian or philanthropic pursuits of Aquarians, but
they are also among the most romantic, instinctive, and charming. You

Aquarius born during the Year of the Tiger...
Aquarians
born during the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Tiger are represented in
Primal Astrology by the Panther. Panthers are more intense and
rebellious than other Aquarians but are also more likely than most to
join humanitarian pursuits. This is among the more politically oriented
Primal Zodiac signs who can drift off into an imaginary Utopia in their
minds, which can then cause them to feel dissociated with the world
around them. This is among the most emotional of Aquarius signs as well
as the toughest. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Panther by clicking here.
