Aquarius Moon and fads
Posted: Thu May 11, 2017 12:00 pm
I just added the following to the Aquarius Moon interpretation section. I thought I'd post it separately in case people want to discuss it.
OBSERVATION: "INTEREST IN THE NEW." Aquarius Moons are known for being "interested in the new," the progressive, the innovative, the "ahead of the curve." But what exactly does this mean? For example, Aquarius Moon is usually (almost emphatically) not interested in the latest trends. They commonly seem geeky and unhip on fashions, don't have (surprise!) the latest popular electronics, tend to only adopt fashion and other trends when a fad has passed (and others have "moved on" to something else). - The explanation is that "current trends," "hip," and "fads" point to exactly the sort of thing Aquarius Moon distances himself or herself from, because they aren't truly innovative. They are "herd mind" behaviors. They may even be offensive to Aquarius. "Fad, popular, hip" are nearly pejoratives in the Aquarius lexicon. - OTOH there is profound interest and captivated curiosity in things that are beyond the horizon: molecular-level data storage, for example, and other things that would be pure science fiction if they didn't actually exist. Aquarius is invested in progressive thought, and has behaviors that are "outside of the box" - but that specifically means that they don't identify with the hip, popular, faddish, and trendy, which they consider the best example of being inside the box of sheep mentality.
