# Rahu in Aquarius
### Pavlo Globa. Planets in the Signs of the Zodiac
In your past life, you have worked through the program of Leo. In this life, you should abandon fixation on yourself, arrogance, posing, imposing your opinions on others, excessive attention to your own person, egocentrism, and the pursuit of posthumous fame. You do not need to strive to be a leader, an unquestionable authority (which tempts many such people), nor force others to live your life. You must rely on the best qualities of Leo, meaning you should be a free, creative individual, a whole person. By your Ascending Node, you need to cultivate the qualities of Aquarius, striving for inner freedom and independence, selfless friendship, embracing the new, breaking away from what has outlived its purpose, seeking reforms, living for the future, and developing objectivity and impartiality in your views. Here, you may find informal leadership (especially in ideology and evaluating current events). Aquarius is associated with so-called chronomancy, the work with time. Through Aquarius, the key to eternal youth is given—the philosopher’s stone, the cherished object of many sages and alchemists. Chronomancy is linked to Aquarius and Uranus, as Uranus governs chronomancy. Personalities: F.M. Dostoevsky (59 years), P.I. Tchaikovsky (56 years), A.P. Chekhov (44 years), A.V. Suvorov (71 years), Marshal G.K. Zhukov (79 years—did not utilize his potential for formal leadership in 1953), Maria Stuart (46 years), E. Zola (62 years), A. Einstein (76 years), O. Cromwell (59 years), A.C. Doyle (71 years).
### Larisa Nazarova. Karmic Astrology
You must abandon vanity, posing, self-centeredness, and the desire to rule. You cannot strive to be a leader or an unquestionable authority. You will have to be a humble person. You need to cultivate inner freedom and independence, not submit to anyone, and have nothing “hanging over you.” The karma of such a person lies in all things new, unusual, reforms, and possible informal leadership.
### Avesalom Podvodny. Planets in the Signs of the Zodiac
This position of the Nodes represents a person’s struggle between their own life and selfless devotion to humanity. The South Node in Leo symbolizes past lives where much revolved around the individual. The North Node in Aquarius points to future service to humanity, where the individual must take on the role of the “Water-Bearer” and contribute to the “crusade” for world evolution. Before achieving this, they will have to deal with the immense power of the South Node in Leo. In past incarnations, the individual was accustomed to looking down on others and being condescending toward their thoughts and ideas. A particular pride compels them to become a prominent figure among special people. They separate members of royal families and ordinary people, placing themselves or those close to them on a pedestal. By presenting themselves as the central point of the universe, they view their strong will as a means to achieve their goals rather than adapting to the honest acceptance of life. Their karma now lies in learning to move lightly, leaving no trace, as they are a ruler preparing to renounce their throne. The ego of their past life constantly rears its ugly head, hindering them from achieving the very happiness they seek. This position of the Nodes creates great difficulties in marriage, as the individual desires to dominate those close to them. When they cannot do so, they become a recluse, freeing themselves from all responsibility through complete aversion to it. Though they ask others for advice, they still do everything their own way. Their greatest conflict revolves around what is artificial and what is real. In their South Node in Leo, there is so much martyr-like romanticism that they find it easy to slip into the role of Don Quixote, tilting at windmills! They must learn to cast off their masks, realizing that egocentric displays of dignity stem from past-life habits and can bring them no lasting happiness. The individual acts as a patron to those they consider close and dear. They enjoy wandering, revealing in their travels the outcasts of society. In the most remote regions, where society overlooks existing opportunities, they open new horizons for exploration and conquest. They are destined to spend part of their life in solitude, as they are too accustomed to commanding to be readily accepted by most people. Though they enjoy recognition and applause for their grand achievements, they cannot stoop to chasing people. Their soul remembers the pride that allows them to compromise their dignity. For the right cause, they would sacrifice their life. What interests them is not the sympathy of others but their admiration for their glorious deeds. They are repelled by ordinariness and mediocrity, seeing it as a threat to their drive to reach the top. If they are of a negative type, they may even use people to achieve their goals. Friends, neighbors, acquaintances, and relatives become tools for climbing the ladder of success. Through the North Node in Aquarius, the individual learns to overcome the sense of prestige from their past life and develops the concept of the Universal Brotherhood. They must eventually see themselves as part of a vast cosmic sphere, where their role is to share the burden of human evolution. They will find the greatest happiness when they can renounce their needs and approach everything they see around them with newfound humanity. They must humble their pride and reach new horizons—no matter how eccentric their ideas may seem to others. Through their North Node, they are promised a unique adventure through which they can make an important contribution to the progress of civilization. The position in the house of the South Node indicates the area of life overly burdened by the desire for personal achievement. The position in the house of the North Node shows how the individual can free themselves from the shackles of their past life by recognizing the mission for humanity they are destined to take up.

L. Nevidomska, Ye. Demyanova. Nodes and the Moon
You would do well to take an example from Aquarians: learn from them their free-thinking, altruism, and unconventional worldview. Try to rid yourself of the “straight-A student complex,” abandon posing, vanity, egocentrism, avoid drawing attention to your person, and boasting about your abilities and talents—otherwise, your gifts will never fully blossom. By nature, you are a leader, and life will occasionally present situations where, it seems, fate itself commands you to take the initiative into your own hands. Know this: you cannot avoid responsibility, but neither should you rest on your laurels to the sound of trumpets. Therefore, it is best to remain an informal leader. Strive for independence in your judgments, do not fear experimentation, and seek new paths. Do not cling to the past; live for the future, look ahead, and only ahead—and luck will certainly knock on your door. George Sand, July 1, 1804, Rahu in Aquarius.
Planets in Signs. The Art of Forecasting. Semira and V. Vetash
Your goals are realized through striving toward the ideals of the future and distant horizons. In this, you must rely not only on the individual wealth of your personality but also align your plans with others.
