Air · Fixed · ruled by Saturn · sign #11 of 12
Modern sign synthesis - not from a classical text. The lucky day, colour and number are the same.
Aquarius (Kumbha) is original, humanitarian and independent. Ruled by Saturn, natives are visionary thinkers ahead of their time.
Technology, science, social work, research and innovation-driven fields.
Loyal but independent, they need friendship and intellectual freedom in love.
Counted from the Moon sign, vedha included. These grahas stay in a sign for months or years, so this is what sets the longer tone.
Sade Sati is running for Aquarius Moon signs now (setting phase), from about 24 January 2020 to 23 February 2028. Check against your own chart
A sign's 30 degrees are nine nakshatra padas - two and a quarter nakshatras. The birth Moon's pada is also where the first syllable of a traditional name is taken from.
The syllables are the jyotisha almanac's table (the avakahada chakra). The Dharmasindhu (1888, p. 133) records that some name a child by it, and says the srauta and grihya texts do not agree; no text stating the table itself was found.
Counted from the janma rāśi (Moon sign) - Phaladeepika 26.2.
