The king of gods fell in love with him and flew down to the mountain in the form of a large bird, whisking Ganymede away to the heavens. While tending to his father's flocks on Mount Ida, Ganymede was spotted by Zeus. Ganymede was the son of Tros, king of Troy (according to Lucian, he was also the son of Dardanus). The water carrier represented by the constellation Aquarius is Ganymede, a beautiful Phrygian youth. The ruling planets of Aquarius are Saturn (alongside Capricorn), and Uranus. Aquarius is one of the three air signs, alongside Gemini and Libra. Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun is in the Aquarius sign between about January 20 and February 18. Aquarius ( ♒︎) ( Greek: Υδροχόος, romanized: Hydrokhóos, Latin for "water-bearer") is the eleventh astrological sign in the zodiac, originating from the constellation Aquarius.
