A courteous originality: curiosity, fairness, and a sense of friendship, with a certain detachment.
Two winds that carry far: Libra seeks fairness, Aquarius brotherhood, and the ideal becomes an art of living together.
Bringing very different people together around a fair and creative project, with grace and conviction.
Staying in the ideal and in courtesy, to the point of avoiding deep emotional commitments.

October and February, two breaths, agree at one hundred twenty degrees.
The scales tie the bonds; the Water Bearer anchors them in principles. Aphrodite rules the east, Saturn the core, and Saturn finds its exaltation in Libra. The person charms through elegance, listening, and a way of steering the conversation toward subjects that matter, without ever imposing an opinion. Their conversation raises the level of the evening without weighing it down.
The Sun dwells in the 5th house, that of creations, children, and pleasures. This combination has an original creative talent: contemporary art installations, electronic music, object design, committed theater, speculative novels. They love parties where people from all backgrounds meet, inventive board games, group workshops. They know how to pass on to children a taste for freedom, justice, and curiosity. Friends readily consult them for advice on taste.
This double breath sometimes cools the heart. The person loves humanity, ideas, egalitarian relationships, but may flee an intimacy that runs too deep. They also hesitate for a long time between several attractive options. The Aries of the setting point would preach ardor: deciding, desiring, jumping in without calculation. Little by little, they discover that commitment takes nothing away from freedom.
Friend, equal, accomplice: an Aquarius Sun with Libra rising expects these three qualities from the other.
They love elegant, free relationships, made of conversations, exhibitions visited together, shared projects. Under the influence of the setting Aries, their encounters would be lively, spontaneous, wholehearted. Their fire unsettles and awakens them. Allowing intensity, beyond courtesy, would deepen their bonds. Time digs this bond deeper rather than wearing it down.
Design, contemporary art, media, cultural diplomacy, public relations, law, collaborative creation: elegance and originality work wonders there.
The Sun in the house of works would favor creative jobs and those tied to youth, from activity leading to children’s publishing. They know how to rally people with grace. Their limit would be hesitating a long time before deciding, so as not to ruffle anyone. Their ideas travel fast in a network.
An opening night, a writing workshop, a dinner with friends of different cultures: their days are social and creative.
The home is elegant and original, with contemporary works and objects designed by friends. Going out, discovering, and meeting people are necessary to them. Also making time for a more intimate one-on-one connection would balance a teeming social life. They never forget a friend’s birthday.
Aphrodite, mistress of the horizon, would pass through the Water Bearer without dignity, more friendly than passionate.
Saturn, ruler of the Sun sign, is on the contrary exalted in the rising Libra: the lord of the intimate side would be celebrated by the bearing. The Sun, for its part, would pile up disgraces, in detriment in Aquarius and fallen in Libra according to the Tetrabiblos. The ancients saw in this whole a just, sociable, and measured temperament.
Around ten in the evening, the scales appear in the east. The Water Bearer then falls in the 5th house, the joy of Venus, mistress of the horizon: offspring, feasts, works. An Aquarius Sun would find a playground and a creative ground there.
The Sun sign depends on the day of birth; the rising sign, on the time and place.
Libra takes about 2 hr 45 min to rise in Paris: with the Sun in Aquarius, the rising sign is Libra for a birth during that rise.

Very. Two airs in harmony offer a rare relational ease, a real curiosity about others, a keen sense of justice. Friendships are formed everywhere, from the book club to the festival. The risk: floating in the ideal and dodging deep intimacy. Their many friendships are also faithful.
A rising Libra puts Aquarius in the 5th house, where Venus, mistress of the east, took pleasure. Creativity would be original, turned toward the future and toward others: participatory art, new music, games invented for children. Creating would become a way of bringing people together. Their works would often gather very different people.
The Tetrabiblos places Saturn’s exaltation under the scales. Here Saturn governs the Sun, and Libra rises in the east. Placed itself under the scales, Saturn would culminate in dignity: a weighed fairness that joins rule and kindness. Uranus, modern master, would add its share of boldness.
