What is your Aquarius decanate?

The deanery consists of the 3 divisions of 10 days within each sign, each part being ruled by a different planet. When we discover in which deanery of our sign we were born, we can identify which characteristic of the sign is more present in our life, besides other traits that end up not manifesting so much in our personality.

Each planet which rules the decanates is responsible for the characteristics present in your life. Do you, native of the sign of Aquarius, want to know in which decanate you were born? Then continue reading this article to find out the dates and the main characteristics of each one.

What are the decanates of Aquarius?

To understand what constitutes the deanery, we must first understand how the distribution of the zodiacal houses works. The 12 houses of the zodiac are presented in a large circle, like a clock. Dividing this clock into 12 equal parts, each sign has 30° of the 360° present in the circle. These 30° represent the 30 days of duration of each sign.

In these 30 days of duration, we have the division into 3 groups of 10 days, thus forming the decanates. Each phase of the decanate has its ruling planet, thus influencing the personality of the people who were born in each period.

Some characteristics will be stronger in some people than others, making for nuances within the same sign.

The three periods of the sign of Aquarius

Even if born under the same sign, the natives of Aquarius have different characteristics among themselves, which is explained by the dates of their birth. Each of the 3 periods of time present in the house of Aquarius has a ruling planet, thus accentuating the characteristics of each deanery.

In the case of those born in the first decade, the most well-known characteristics of the sign of Aquarius are more present. In the second decade, Aquarians are more communicative, fun-loving and have a lot of energy to face their activities.

For the third, we have the most loving Aquarians who value interpersonal relationships. Each period is marked by different characteristics, and that help shape the Aquarian personality.

How do I know which is my Aquarius Decanate?

To know your deanate of Aquarius, all you need to know is your date of birth. By giving this information to your astrologer, or even just reading this article, you will be able to understand what it means to be born in a specific deanate of the sign of Aquarius and the main peculiarities present in each period.

First Decanate of the sign Aquarius

People born during the first 10 days of Aquarius have the most striking and well-known characteristics of this sign of this sign of air. Rebellious and true lovers of freedom, these people represent the definition of what it is to be from Aquarius, because the main characteristics of this sign are present in a striking way in their personality.

Check below the date that defines the first decanate of Aquarius and the main distinctive characteristics of these natives.

Date and ruling planet

In the first decade of Aquarius, we have the natives born between January 21st and 30th. Ruled by the planet Uranus, they are considered pure Aquarians, as they carry the main characteristics of this sign.

Just like the god Uranus, these Aquarians are rebellious, revolutionary, and love to break established paradigms. Uranus is astrologically associated with everything that is technological and inspires innovation. Besides, people ruled by Uranus are independent, versatile, creative and very easy to see beyond other people.

However, these natives can have negative traits such as excessive rebelliousness, lack of organization and even stubbornness.

They love freedom

The love for freedom is not only in the love field, as most people think. The Aquarius born in this first decanate does not like anything that hinders his freedom to live. Jobs with a "fixed structure" hardly make an Aquarian happy.

Stipulating their own schedule and having more creative tasks are more their thing. In their friendships, Aquarians also don't like to maintain relationships with those who try to prune them and usually cultivate friendships with people who don't charge anything in return.

In love, you look for a relationship with no demands, and without the need to be together all the time. As much as you enjoy being with your partner, you value moments when you can do activities alone.

Bold

Boldness is present in the life of natives of the first decade of Aquarius. They do not lack courage to face life head on and do everything to achieve what they want. However, this boldness can even be harmful at times.

After all, these Aquarians often do not analyze all the riches of the condition in which they are getting involved, thus attracting negative results. In love, they also like to be daring and get involved with partners who are into adventures.

They are perfect for performing some sexual fantasy or trying out different positions. They feel no shame between four walls and want their partner to enjoy this dare as much as they do.

Rebels

Rebelliousness is also present in Aquarians of this decadent, as well as in their ruler, Uranus. The gift of defying imposed rules comes with them since childhood, which can get them into some trouble. Questioning about everything around them is one of the triggers for their rebelliousness, because when they know the why of things, most of the time they do not agree.

This rebelliousness is present in all areas of their lives, but it intensifies in the family and at work. In the family, they may not agree with rules they consider outdated, especially those that interfere with their freedom, which will encourage their rebellion.

At work, some dynamics and ways of working do not please them, making them the reactive ones in the team for questioning things.

Innovators

Innovation is something encouraged by Uranus and has a lot of influence on those born in the first decade of Aquarius. The head of a native of this period is a machine of new ideas and when they are explored and schematized, they work out very well.

This gift is excellent especially in the professional sphere, as it enables them to find original and creative solutions. In problem-solving, innovation also helps the first decadent Aquarian.

As he already has the facility to see things in a different way, he also visualizes how to solve his problems in a very creative way. Many who take the risk to invest in innovative ideas succeed in their endeavor.

Interest in technology

Modernity and technology are themes that attract Aquarians born in this first decadent. Everything that is modern arouses their interest. From that new cell phone with several cameras, to the robot vacuum cleaner for the house, everything attracts their attention.

It's not just about owning the object, but they like to research these technologies, because they know they will help them and make their daily lives easier. More than having these modernities, it's knowing how to talk about them.

For Aquarians, it is very exciting to talk about new technologies and discuss how they add to people's lives and to humanity. The future and revolutionary ideas arouse their interest and admiration, making them delve deeper and deeper into the subject.

Second Decanate of the sign Aquarius

The second decadal sign of Aquarius is marked by natives with a great mood and a lot of fun. They have great ease with interpersonal relationships and are very skilled with group work. Check out in more depth each characteristic of Aquarians born in the second decadal.

Date and ruling planet

The second decade of the Aquarius sign begins on 31st January and ends on 9th February. The planet responsible for this period is Mercury, which gives these Aquarians the gift of being amusing and very communicative. These natives are usually attracted to people who look like them.

Mercury also provides those born in the second decanate with versatility, assimilation of information and ease of learning. On the negative side, people born with this ruler tend to talk more than they should, and are prone to fanaticism of any kind.

Extremely communicative

Mercury is directly linked to Hermes, the messenger of the Gods. Hermes was a messenger because he had an incredible ability to persuade and was great at speeches. Therefore, Aquarians of the second decanate have the gift of communication and intelligent speech. They are extremely humorous people, which facilitates their interaction with other individuals.

Being communicative helps these natives in all areas of their lives. They are great people to present work in groups, because in addition to proper oratory, they have an ease of dealing with the general public. However, this communication can become a defect when these Aquarians talk too much or say something they should not.

Versatile

People who belong to this decanate are extremely versatile. These Aquarians need changes to occur in their life constantly, so they are open to various possibilities. It is very common for them to start some activity and, in a short time, change the focus to another project.

Having many interests is something very positive, but it can also be the downfall of these natives. Precisely because they have many interests, they can take on many projects at once, but without being able to carry all of them through to the end, thus causing a certain frustration.

Infinite desire to learn

Learning is never too much, especially for these natives. The search for knowledge comes since childhood. Aquarians of this decanate are usually extremely curious children who explore the environment they are in. Being curious by nature is what drives them to always try to learn new things, especially those they know will add to their life.

No matter how complex the subject, these Aquarians do not give up until they learn what they set out to study. Mercury is very helpful in this aspect as it allows their protégés to assimilate information more easily and have effective and faster learning.

Third Decanate of the sign Aquarius

Here in the third decanate we have the most loving Aquarians, engaged with society issues, justice and vain. They are more sensitive than the others and have their rebelliousness a little more controlled.

They value family relationships, always caring about their loved ones, they are great friends and great partners in a love relationship. Check out the most diverse characteristics of these natives who close the decanate of the sign of Aquarius.

Date and ruling planet

The third and last decanate of Aquarius begins on February 10th and ends on February 19th. The ruling planet responsible for this period of time is Venus. These Aquarians are more sensitive than the others, and have their rebelliousness a little more contained.

They value family relationships, are great friends and excellent love partners. The feminine energy that emanates from Venus makes their natives loving and connected with beauty.

Concern for society

For Aquarians of this decanate it is very important to understand the current situation of society as a whole. By understanding how things are, it is possible to find solutions to improve life in society.

Even if they are not able to change some situation around them, they are people who believe in the good side of things and have the conviction that everything will be solved someday. They are people with humanitarian spirit. Whenever there is an opportunity to get involved with some social project, these Aquarians will volunteer.

Although they cannot act directly with some projects, they usually make donations to contribute and talk to the largest number of people in order to spread the word about these campaigns.

Loving

These Aquarians are the most loving natives among all the other decanates. Most people believe that people of the sign of Aquarius, in general, are not capable of feeling love for anyone, which is a deception.

The love of Aquarians of the third decanate is reinforced by the energy of Venus, making the relationships that require affection on the part of these natives very satisfying.

Search for justice

The sense of justice in the sign of Aquarius is present, but it is more acute in those born in the third decade. When they are faced with an unfair situation, these natives rebel and immediately try to see that justice is done.

It doesn't matter if the situation hasn't happened to them. If they witness any injustice, they will do everything to reverse the situation. This instinct for justice may even seem strange to other people, but for Aquarians it makes total sense.

However, this trait can become a flaw when there is no boundary on the issue. Wanting to force their justice at any cost may not please the people around them, as there is often no need to enforce justice in the same way.

Connection with beauty

The connection with beauty of Aquarians of this decadent is inherited from Venus. This planet provides this deep connection with beauty and self-care. These natives are vain and very sensual people. They like to venture into cool and modern clothes, extravagant makeup and abusing trends that most people do not use.

In addition, they also like to feel good about themselves as well as people around them noticing their beauty and praising them. In love relationships, they appreciate their partners noticing what they are wearing and a new haircut. For these Aquarians, beauty is one of their strengths and one of the pillars of their self-confidence.
