The Power of Intuition
What is intuition? According to google it is “1. the ability to understand something immediately, without the need for conscious reasoning. 2. a thing that one knows or considers likely from instinctive feeling rather than conscious reasoning.” Aquarius being a logical sign doesn’t rely on intuition right? Yes and No.
Aquarius although being an air sign and a logical sign, is quite in fact unique. Aquarius is a sign ruled not just by logic but by emotions. Hence the water bearer holding the cup of proverbial life, emotions, and knowledge. They are in fact a logical sign but a logical sign corresponding to emotion. Which begs to ask, what is emotion? It is actually an “instinctive or intuitive feeling as distinguished from reasoning or knowledge.”
So if emotion is an intuitive feeling and Aquarius is an air sign that deals with logic and emotion, then that means that Aquarius is in fact intuitive? In theory yes, but most Aquarius aren’t aware of this power that they have and therefore fail to use it. Another reason is that Aquarius do not trust their emotions and therefore let their logic decide over their intuition. This is why many fail to reach the highest pinnacle of Aquarian foresight and power.
Many unrealized Aquarians close their emotions off through most, if not all, of their lives. But the beauty lies in an Aquarius who has become self aware and open to the truth. Yes, we do fail at times and part of that isn’t because life and others have pushed us to that point, but because we fail to use our true potential.
An Aquarius who has learned that logic and emotion go hand in hand, has learned to open the door and flow of logic, power, emotion, and knowledge. It can easily become one of the most powerful signs in the zodiac, along with evolved Scorpios, Leos, and Taurus.
The problem lies with the stubborn and fixed nature of an Aquarius. They close themselves and remain closed to the possibility of opening their hearts. They choose to remain closed off and ‘cold’ to the people who they interact with. They rather dwell and live in their logical minds and reside in the safe haven that spares them from feeling.
That fear of feeling that deep emotional pool that they carry within their hearts, is what stops most Aquarians from evolving. They’re afraid of feeling too hard, too long, and too painfully that they cut that connection at the first sign of trouble. They fail to form long lasting, loving, and emotional relationships because they choose to live in their minds.
This feeds into their superiority complex, that they are 'above everyone else’ because they don’t feel. They’re not and they know this deep in their hearts. It’s a defense mechanism to spare themselves of experiencing heartbreak. And once they realize that heartbreak is part of life, then will they be able to allow that beautiful flow of emotional stream into the universe.
Once they do that, they will realize that good and beautiful things will happen. Because an Aquarius is magical and a blessing to all those they touch. But only when they learn to tie their logic and their emotions into one and use the power of their intuition and knowledge for good.
