Aquarius Man Personality Traits & Characteristics

Highly intellectual, quirky, and independent, men born under the Aquarius sign are often the black sheep of their worlds. Interested in global affairs, caring for the less fortunate, and understanding how the world works (if not the entire Universe), Aquarius men are friendly, like to discuss politics and culture, and are often highly artistic.

This Air sign is an advanced thinker, often dismayed at the lack of passion people accept in their lives. The theme they are probably best known for is being an agent of freedom, helping people think outside of the box, and being one who is rarely tied down.

Personality Characteristics of the Aquarius Man

An Aquarius man is born between January 21 and February 18. Personality traits of the Aquarian man can be understood through their ruling planet, Uranus, the planet of rebellion and revolution. Aquarius men are always doing their own thing, but they don’t tend to be selfish; instead, they look to the greater good and align their life goals with that in mind.

The Aquarius man personality is complex because he sees the world differently than most. He wants to help and will not let his fears stop him from doing some good in the world. His sense of optimism makes him use his time in unconventional ways. He will be the guy up late at night learning Latin or another obscure language, but that also means he will probably sleep through his alarm and forget to show up to breakfast or be horribly late.

His passion runs his life and he likes to find friends who aren’t controlled by the standards set by society. He is fun, likes to make jokes, and has a strong sense of childlike wonder because of his active imagination.

Male Waterbearers are also proud, don’t easily accept criticism, and are often put off by people who try to control them or question their integrity. This man needs to be able to roam both mentally and physically, and you will rarely see them working a cubicle job.

He is known to be a man who travels frequently, takes many lovers, and does things spur of the moment. He enjoys learning about how people come to power, the character flaws that become their demise, and the traits of a good leader. They keep their home in a state of flux just like their lives so don’t expect it to be pristine or proper.
