The eleventh astrological sign in the zodiac, represented by the water bearer.
From Latin 'aquarius' meaning 'water carrier', from 'aqua' (water). In ancient times, this constellation was associated with the rainy season and floods in the Mediterranean region.
Despite being called the 'water bearer', Aquarius is actually an air sign in astrology, not a water sign - this contradiction has puzzled astrology enthusiasts for centuries and reflects the complex ancient origins of zodiacal symbolism.
