This is one of a series of English lessons based on the theme of astrology. They are designed to teach you vocabulary, and especially personal descriptive adjectives.
If you were born between January 20th and February 18th, then your star sign is Aquarius. The symbol of Aquarius is the water carrier. Aquarius' element is air. Uranus rules Aquarius. Aquarians are individualists. They build their lives on their own inclinations and can have trouble relating to other people.
This English lesson will help you understand the vocabulary used to describe people in general and Aquarius in particular.

  • Hello.

    Thanks for the video. For some reason, I wanted to tell you that I think you are a Libra.

    I don't have a real good reason or anything, but I do.

    These are interesting videos.

  • @Nicenice404 Hi. Thanks for watching the videos. I'm not a Libra. What I am can be found in the comments of one of the videos.

    Best wishes,

    Richard

  • Your anus? I have been taught to prenounce that slightly differently... :S

  • @saggyeyebag Yes, there are two recognised pronunciations according to the OED: /ˈjʊərənəs/ or /jʊˈrəɪnəs/. The first is for those who are offended by the sound of the word "anus". The second is the correct pronunciation as far as I am concerned, given the pronunciation of the element, uranium. Both planet and element are named after the father of Saturn, who was Ouranos, the Greek god of the sky. Astronomers prefer the first choice because they don't want to be laughed at by school children.

  • Do Aquarius get along with Aries? In friendship and relationship wise?

  • @Antagoinist89 I guess it all depends on the people. I'd like to think that everyone could get along with everyone else, but I guess this is not the case. Getting along with others demands effort, whatever star sign you are.
