Overview

An independent, humane and original sign. Aquarius Moon is associated with ideals, friendship, innovation and detachment. In Vedic astrology Aquarius is ruled by Saturn, is a air and fixed sign, and traditionally harmonises well with Gemini and Libra.

Element & quality

Aquarius is a air sign, associated in tradition with ideas, communication and movement, and a fixed sign — “fixed” (sthira) — tradition links it to stability, focus and seeing things through. These are broad traditional categories for the sign itself, not a description of any one person.

Ruling planet

Aquarius is ruled by Saturn, which in a Vedic chart represents your discipline, responsibilities and hard lessons. Where the Moon sits in your own chart, and the planets around it, matter far more than the sign alone — this page describes only the sign in general.

How to use this

Think of your Raasi as one broad brushstroke, useful for learning the tradition and for everyday almanac timing — not a forecast of your life. Two people with the same Moon sign can be nothing alike. Take what feels useful as a gentle lens, and leave the rest.

Nakshatras in Aquarius

The stars (Nakshatras) that fall within Aquarius are: Dhanishta, Shatabhisha, Purva Bhadrapada. Your exact birth star adds finer detail — see the 27 Nakshatras.

⚠ A note of caution. This is a general description of the sign, not a personal reading. Your full chart depends on your exact birth details; please consult a qualified astrologer for anything important.
