Kumbha is an air sign ruled by Saturn and a fixed sign. Its symbol is a man carrying a pot (kumbha) of water, pouring it out for others. It is the sign of community, ideals, science, reform and service to the many. It is Saturn's moolatrikona, where Shani works most naturally for the common good.
Aquarius holds the second half of Dhanishta, all of Shatabhisha, the hundred healers, and three padas of Purva Bhadrapada. It is independent, thoughtful and humane, and often unconventional. Its gift is vision for the collective; its test is closeness with individuals.
