The Tyranny of Aquarius

Aquarians are notorious for being seekers of knowledge. They are unconventional and original, a little eccentric and have very magnetic auras. An Aquarius is a humanitarian; they love to help, and are often good at hiding their gentleness and sensitivity. However, an Aquarian person can trample over others to attain their goals. They will mow down bystanders because their ambition is rock-solid once found, and an Aquarius can lead a path to destruction. Aloof and cold, the destructive Aquarius refuses the world and all it's cries, no matter how much the humanitarian side pleads.

The Aquarius lady pictured here pours blood over the tree of knowledge, uncaring to who or what she is drowning. She does not care that her body rots when the cursed blood touches her, and she watches the fruit of knowledge cultivate with an abysmal obsession.

Her tears are because she knows what she is doing wrong, yet has no will nor the sanity to stop herself. A destructive Aquarius is often a broken-hearted one; all she needs is someone to help her heal.

Thanks for viewing :D

I married a 'broken hearted Aquarius' for nearly ten years. I had to leave him because he was so broken about himself that he put mental, physical, verbal and emotional abuse on me to hide is true feelings he did not want to face. I loved him so much that I'm trying to heal from the poison he put onto me. It's a tough road a head, but at least I got out before it got worse. This piece you created here most certainly shows just that - a broken Aquarius destroying what she loves most. Destroying her soul if you will, the very essence of who she was born to be. The darkness and chaos in this piece is a visual interputation of the nightmare I went through. I know how my ex-husband is feeling inside by looking at this piece. I loved him so much and I still do, but I can't heal him until he heals himself.
