As an Aquarius born on February 5th, your personality is defined by an honest and imaginative nature. While some people may find enjoyment in playing mind games, you are really the definition of "what you see is what you get." In all of your social and professional dealings, you value truth and straightforwardness above all. While those closest to you appreciate your honesty, they may have the most admiration for your creativity. Your quick mind allows you to see possibilities that others cannot imagine. This ability allows you to be a natural problem solver, but it also makes you an effective and engaging communicator.

Air is the elemental pair of the Aquarius and of all the zodiac signs, you have the only fixed connection with the element. Your special connection with air gives your personality the determined and stubborn qualities of a fierce wind. Similarly, your connection with air gives you the gentle breeze of curiosity that all air zodiac signs share. When you find an interesting topic, air pushes you to find knowledge and understanding. While air's positive qualities can play a key role in your future success, be weary of the negative qualities of stagnant air, which include social and emotional distance.

The Aquarius is under the planetary rulership of Uranus, but as you were born in the second Decan, or part, of the sign, you also receive the mysterious planetary power of Mercury. Uranus, being the planet of deviation, is connected to your originality and need for freedom. On the other hand, it is Mercury's power that links to your gifts for communication and mental agility. Your unique combination of planetary powers makes you more intellectually focused than the other Aquarius Decans. More so than other members of your sign, you also have the ability to place your objectivity above your emotions. When matched with your quick, creative mind, these abilities put you two steps ahead of those around you. If you had one downfall, it would be the tendency to be impatient with the slow development of reality. Counter this problem by finding patience and you will be sure to achieve success.

Your intelligence and originality will be a great fit in numerous careers, although narrowing your choices down to one is easier said than done. As a creative communicator, you may do well as a writer, advertiser or public relations specialist. Your need for freedom may take you to a fast-paced career like business or media. If you find an issue worth supporting, you may take to a humanitarian career, such as teaching, counseling or politics. In whichever career you choose, adopt the determination and willpower of sports greats Cristiano Ronaldo and Hank Aaron, who both share your February 5th birthday.

The Sabian Symbol for your birthday is a watchdog standing guard over his maters and his possessions. This symbol relates to the need to be your own "watch dog" at times. The pressures of society are complex and plentiful, take time to protect yourself from their detrimental effects.
