Aquarius Problems:
All the thoughts of Aquarius are concentrated in one subject which they are most interested in. And when it is time to make a decision, they generate it from thoughts which are currently in their head. As a result, answers to various questions are generally the same, and Aquarius is not very concerned how well the responds agree with a particular situation.
Isolation from society is very undesirable for Aquarius. In fact, it is even dangerous, because it drastically limits the amount of available energy and leads to a significant weakening of the health. But excessive contacts with people can also be harmful. Talisman made from obsidian absorbs bad intentions, so Aquarius can use it as an amulet, which helps him to understand his weak spots.
Pure Aquarians are rigid, and can't freely discuss the first available issue. But those issues which are interesting to them usually incomprehensible by others. Faced once or twice with a misunderstanding, Aquarius may isolate itself from the society, and then - read the beginning of the current paragraph. For Aquarius, like for no one else, it is of high importance to take care of their friends. Present Aquarius with aquamarine, an amulet of sailors and naval mascot, a stone of friendship, justice and courage.
