Aquarius ♒️ — Water Bearer // Air // Uranus • January 20 — February 18
Inspired by Western astrology I designed a humanized version of Aquarius.

Why did a choose a hummingbird to represent the Water Bearer? Some of the animals that represents Aquarius are hummingbirds, eagles, herons and albatross. I decided to go with the hummingbirds because they represent the truth and the joy. They're considered the birds of the gods, that bring harmony and happiness to all who see them. And since the Greek myth behind this astrological sign is related to Zeus, who fell in love with Ganymede — the water carrier — and took the form of a large bird, whisking Ganymede away to the heavens, choosing a hummingbird seemed a good choice.

• Character: She's Aquarius, a human-like woman with bird and nymph features (her wings, her ears, her forehead markings and iridescent hair.

Related to Ganymede, who was taken to the heavens by Zeus, when the god felt in love him, she's now the Water Bearer, bringing water to the Earth.

She's the biggest in size of all the 12 sisters, a giant woman with bird wings, who carries infinite water in her golden vase. When not carrying her vase, she can take a smaller size, though she's still way bigger than her sisters.

Being ruled by Uranus and having the Air as her element, she's idealistic and inventive, and the scientific one of all the zodiac sisters, who think of her as a gentle giant devoted to friendship and experimentation.

Along with Gemini and Libra, she's part of the Air Trigon.

• Background: Because she's ruled by Uranus and her element is Air, I wanted to represent the planet colors in the background, all bright and rainbow like, giving this way, importance to the sky. She's the water bearer, so even when being an Air sign, she's usually found creating lakes and other large bodies of water, using her wings to move from one place to the other.

Her golden vase can create all the water she wants, letting it fall in large waterfalls.

• Colors: All the bright colors of the rainbow because of her ruler planet: electric blue, shocking pink and fluorescent colors
• Gemstones: sapphire, opal
• Metals: uranium
• Trees: cornus and eucalyptus
• Flowers: orchids, geraniums and hibiscus
