My Astrological Personality Reading

Section 1: How You Approach Life and How You Appear To Others

Ferociously proud and somewhat vain, you like to be
impressive and to be seen as Somebody Special. You are not
timid, meek, or self-effacing, and are rarely content being in
the background or in the subordinate position. You are a natural
leader, and do not take orders from others very well. You must
have something of your own, something creative - be it a
business, a project, a home or whatever - that you can develop
and manage according to your own will and vision. Whatever you
do, you do it in a unique, dramatic, individual way. You like to
put your own personal stamp on it.

You also have a very strong sense of dignity, self-respect,
and personal honor and are deeply offended if someone treats you
in a humiliating or dishonorable way. You will rarely confront
the offender - you are too proud to do so - but you will lose
your affection and respect for them. You dislike pettiness and
hate to be snubbed or ignored.

You admire others who are strong individuals like yourself.
When you befriend someone, you are tremendously loyal, sincere,
and willing to go to extraordinary lengths to make that person
happy. You are very giving and generous, but your gifts are
never anonymous - you expect recognition and appreciation for
them. You also expect the intense loyalty that you offer to your
dear ones to be reciprocated. However, you often have trouble
working with people who are as strong as yourself, for you do
not really cooperate or share the leading role very easily. If
you are not in the leading role, you aspire to be and will
compete with the person who is.

You have great heart and courage, and people often look to
you for strength, encouragement, and affirmation. You always
have your best face forward and rarely allow others to see you
hurting, disheartened, or vulnerable. You also have a very
strong need for love, admiration, appreciation, and praise,
although you don't like others to realize just how important it
is to you.

Your outlook on life tends to be very personal and rather
self-centered. Your own self-expression, self-actualization and
self-realization interests you more than anything else. You feel
that if you do your best where you are, the rest of the world
will take care of itself.

Section 2: The Inner You: Your Real Motivation

You have powerful emotional attachments to the past, your
family, your childhood, those places you associate with safety
and security and your beginnings. Maintaining a connection with
your roots and heritage and keeping family bonds strong are very
important to you. Loyal, devoted, and sentimental, you tend to
cling to whatever is dear to you, be it person, familiar place,
or cherished possession.

You are sympathetic, nurturing, supportive, and very
sensitive to the emotional needs of other people. You like to be
needed, to care for others, and you often worry about the people
you love. You have a very strong need for a sense of belonging
and acceptance, and you center much of your life around your
home. You are more concerned about people and their feelings
than with power, achievement, or position in society. Kindness,
consideration, and tenderness impress you more than any sort of
honor the world can bestow.

You are primarily emotional and your views are often
dominated by your feelings and by your own personal, subjective
experiences, rather than reason, logic, or abstract principles.
It is difficult for you to judge situations in a fair, objective
manner for your personal sympathies and loyalties usually enter
in. You take things very personally, and sometimes build a wall
around yourself to protect yourself from pain and rejection. You
feel rather shy and vulnerable at heart. You also tend to be
moody, experiencing frequent emotional ups and downs. You need
to have a place and time in your life to withdraw, introspect,
dream, and replenish yourself; otherwise you become cranky and
unhappy with those around you.

You function in an instinctive, nonrational manner and like
to immerse yourself in creative activities where you can express
your feelings, imagination, and instincts. You often love to
cook, since it can be both creative and a way to nurture and
nourish others. You also have a great affinity for music,
because it evokes and communicates feelings that may be
difficult or impossible to put into words.

Your compassion, sensitivity, and imagination are your
strong points. Your faults include an inability to release the
past and go forward, clannishness and prejudice, and a tendency
to be self-pitying when you meet hardships in life.
