The sign of Aquarius is the eleventh sign in the Zodiac and originates from the constellation Aquarius. In the western world, those born from January 20th to February 18th are said to be born under the sign of Aquarius. In astrology, Aquarius is a masculine, extroverted, air sign. Although Aquarius was traditionally ruled by the planet Saturn, but modern astrologers consider Uranus to be its ruler. The constellation Aquarius is associated in Greek mythology with Ganymede, the cupbearer of the gods. Hence, the astrological sign Aquarius is often symbolized by an urn spilling water. Aquarians are said to be stubborn, inventive, open minded, have high expectations, be aloof, free spirited and unpredictable. Aquarius is an air sign, which makes it associated with thought, perspective and communication.

Aquarius tattoos incorporate two jagged lines above each other that are supposed to represent waves. Aquarius tattoos can also depict actual water, waves, and sea character as well as a water bearer.
