Enneagram by the stars
Will you put yourself to the astrology test? Our society treats astrology like it's just our sun sign, but that is a small fraction of the full picture. If you purchase a full report from astrology.com ($40), you get a long analysis using the most sophisticated AI tools available. These are based on thousands of years of history studying astrology for the sake of divination in union with modern technology.
This always reveals the enneagram type somewhere inside - core type+wing is usually very obvious, stacking and other elements emerge as well. It is usually pretty obvious and if you need some help analyzing it, feel free to reach out to me. Sometimes it takes someone else to check our work. IMO, any potential mistypes can be tracked to this and spotted.
The faster you learn about it, the better. It'll help you to see what's going on (it predicted many small details and dynamics from my life). I see myself as something of a torch-carrier, bridging astrological sciences with the enneagram (and encouraging people to face the reality behind all of this; that the two are connected more than they think). We do not get to choose our enneagram type, and haven't we always known this?
Although I am not an expert astrologer, I am an expert in the enneagram, and I trust AI when it comes to interpretations, more than any person, because we live in a high-tech world, and AI is impartial (in addition to more mathematically gifted than a person; as astrology is very precise).
My core of 8w7 was obvious even in the first paragraph.
"The following paragraphs concern the study of your personality, as induced by the positions of the planets and rising sign. Some of the character traits mentioned may seem completely contradictory and incompatible. This is because the rough-hewn personality is a rarity. Usually, individuals are made up of a subtle orchestration of many different tones or aspects. However, serious introspection or detailed analysis should make it possible to distinguish the opposing or diverging images comprising your overall character, and perhaps, in time, find the best and most harmonious way to integrate them.
You live in the here-and-now, immediately obeying your impulses. You are guided by a fire burning within you. You rarely heed the warnings of reflection and reason; instead, you listen to your instincts, as if your unconscious were perpetually emerging. This is the source of your spontaneity and passion. Because you are continually being born, you champion all phenomena symbolic of birth: breaking ground, beginning, clearing. You have little interest for pursuing the new ideas you brought into being, because your inner flame is always urging you to move on quickly to the next innovation. You are not a good manager. You are straightforward. When you commit yourself, you do so with mind, body, and soul. Restraint and moderation are concepts which are totally foreign to you, because you live by the fullness of your instinct, the force of your desire.
Due to your energetic temperament, your determination immediately invents the action necessary to fulfill your desires. It goes without saying that your attitude engenders certain risks. Sometimes your impetuousness, or a lack of maturity or patience, or a keen appetite for experience leads you into a blind alley. But risk is a part of your life. Since your fervor is immune to calculation, second thoughts, and cunning, you have no fear. You are the type of hero whose courageous deeds are difficult to distinguish from acts of bravado or of sheer foolhardiness. Your top priority is to take action, immediately. Delay is torture to you. You are in a hurry to live, to take your urges and impulses to their ultimate conclusion, even though your lack of forethought may actually make your goal take longer to accomplish. You rarely evaluate obstacles objectively: instead, you dash into the fray, bristling with determination, oblivious to the size or scope of the difficulties. You ride home triumphantly, whether you have battered your head against a brick wall or met no resistance whatsoever. But you have a true hero’s courage and vitality. You are undaunted by challenges and real danger, to the surprise of outside observers.
Like everyone, you sometimes experience failure. But you rarely despair or become overly discouraged by it; it never overcomes your. You don't see it as a tragedy; you just figure you missed that time, but next time, you won't. In fact, you’ll muster even more strength and power for the next attack, since you are convinced you can succeed. You sometimes have problems finishing something you have started. Once the glamour of the initial urge and enthusiasm is dulled, you lose some of your potency and find yourself faced with a sluggish material reality which does not always inspire you. It is important for you to tackle short-term tasks only. Of course, you will have recognized all of the above qualities as being the stuff of which great leaders are made. Sharing your enthusiasm and drive, and delegating the follow-up tasks to more patient assistants, you can accomplish amazing things. Stirred by all the stimuli of the outside world, this animal is indifferent to nothing.
As a result, your emotionalism can sometimes trouble or destabilize you. Moreover, you are eternally impassioned. And since passion is by definition uncontrollable, once it is kindled it is either consumed or consuming. The fire will either fuel you and drive you along or sputter in frustration. You should be aware of your penchant for excess. If you are subject to a negative passion, you can be irritable and heedless to everything except your impulses, which are not always reasonable. You must channel your energy in positive directions. Your vigor is only an outer armor. Although you may seem to embody strength itself, full of self-assurance and courage, you have a vulnerable underbelly: your inner self.
As a result, the quality of your emotional relationships has an important impact on your overall well-being. You would do well to take the time to get a good education. It will counteract your tendency to oversimplify. People and things are more complex than you might imagine, and your intellectual efforts will help you understand them.
Due to the influence of Sagittarius (the Centaur-Archer) rising, you, like the half-animal, half-human Centaur, have a dual, ambivalent nature, vagrant and capricious. It is natural for you to be simultaneously conventional and rebellious. You can happily submit to society and convention for a time, only to emerge committed to rugged individualism, or vice-versa. Your inner attachment to an ideal of liberty and emancipation does not prevent you from adopting a sociable, pleasant attitude at social events. This dichotomy in your personality grants you such useful social skills as adaptability and poise, but inside, you face a quest for your true identity and consciousness. Your primary psychological task is to maintain the harmony reigning between the two entities dwelling within you. You must not limit yourself to being either one or the other. You will achieve true psychic and existential stability by personifying a blend of these two behavioral tendencies. When you are comfortable with your individuality, you can radiate optimism and energy; flexible and elastic, you will delight in any change or unpredictability, without losing sight of your long-term purposes. Eminently social, you will express your true nature by becoming deeply involved with groups and taking on duties and responsibilities as a member. You will enjoy your ability to infuse them with your idealistic enthusiasm and visions for the future. Your special gifts for dealing with energy make you apt to occupy a position of great social responsibility.
You are dynamic. You need to attract admiration and release your excess energy.
You are attracted by the here-and-now, by study, and writing. You have a special affinity for the people around you: siblings (or close friends), neighbors, etc.
At the time of your birth, your rising sign was located in Sagittarius (the Archer), while the sun was passing through the sign of Aries (the Ram). Both are ruled by the element fire, which augurs a certain cohesiveness for your character. A summary of the various clues mentioned above provide your personality profile. The following key words capture the essence of your character and indicate certain contradictions which may be sources of tension:
Impetuosity - Individualism - Enthusiasm - Vitality and passion - Group spirit - Pugnacity - Impressionability - Impatience - Analytical mind - Impetuosity - Worldly concerns - Enterprise - Projection - Innovation.
You are gifted with great vitality and boundless optimism. Impulsive and daring, you enjoy sparking bold projects. You are apt to find conflict stimulating, but you are nevertheless good at giving advice, encouragement, and energy to those around you.
Firmly rejecting any discipline save your own, you have a proud and independent spirit. You are unable to submit to anyone else's authority. This rebelliousness may have driven you to certain excesses in your youth, but, as you age, you are bound to settle down and respect laws and conventions, for ethical and esthetic reasons.
Born three and a half to seven days after the rising of the new moon, you are said to be a "crescent moon" lunar type. This "soli-lunar" configuration indicates that you may need to make an effort to free yourself from the past. Something related to your childhood, parents, or ancestors is holding you back, impairing your effectiveness and could stand to be overcome.
Due to your past, you refuse tried-and-true models, are always fighting to justify your innovative viewpoints, and tend to break away from tradition. You are hardly ever aware that you are making career and lifestyle choices which are based on an urge to modify your relationship to society, and the rigid standards and models from the past.
Due to the influence of Jupiter dominating your birth chart, you have undeniable social ambition and many resources with which to achieve it (see CAREER POTENTIAL). Relatively confident in yourself and your abilities, you have the potential to be a leader and chief. It therefore seems probable that you will rise to success. However, you should question yourself about what sort of success you seek and at what price. You should be aware that the taste of victory may be bitter if you find you have sacrificed other aspects of life, like love, friendship, or creativity, to obtain it. You must consciously select what you are willing to invest in order to secure honor, money, and social consideration.
The graph below reveals the various influences on your nature in relation to the percentage value of each element. These values were calculated according to the number of planets and the hierarchical position of each one (dominant, luminary, etc.). The basic personality tendencies as described here will no doubt be counteracted to some degree by the environmental, psychological, or emotional needs outlined in the next chapter. Nevertheless, they form the roots of your psyche, anchoring it as it grows and develops.
You experience your inner life as a process of growth and maturation, nurtured by your involvement with others and the positive and negative encounters this generates.
Because you tend to be centered on yourself and your own personal development, you may not necessarily seek contact with others. You tend to be reluctant to team up with other people in any way. An individualist, you attempt to free yourself from any outside influence; in fact, you are eager to leave your personal imprint on the world around you. Often, due to your lack of perspective in relation to other people, you rebuff their help and cooperation on projects. It is only by working and acting independently that you can accomplish your goals and ambitions.
Your uppermost concern is your personal, subjective interest. Because the development of your personal identity requires great individual freedom of action, you try to free yourself from outer restraints and limitations. Psychologically self-centered, you remain fairly detached from the social world. You reduce such commitments to the strict minimum. Individualistic and egocentric, you derive your feelings of inner security from your ability to command your will and handle your personal involvements freely and openly.
You need to assert your originality. You are individualistic and independent and live life according to your own rules. People and things matter to you only insofar as they relate to you, and you ignore or disregard any annoyances you may encounter. Your passions are lively and ardent, and you truly love to give. You are endowed with great authenticity and can be quite generous, as long as you are aware that others admire you.
Although you may not necessarily notice the fact about yourself because you are so strongly engaged in actions, feelings, or material concerns, you sometimes lack sound judgment. This impairment arises from a difficulty in obtaining perspective on yourself and your life. You may be puzzled by your troubled relations with others.
You must make an effort to detach yourself from your personal reaction and observe it from an objective, more distant standpoint. If not, you are likely to find yourself under stress or pressure because you did not give enough prior thought to tactics and strategy.
You may also experience dissatisfaction in your intimate relationships because you might struggle to get in sync with others.
You give little time or respect to anyone you see as too "intellectual," because you resist adapting to new ideas and viewpoints. In fact, an idea that rubs you the wrong way mentally and/or emotionally may elicit an explosive reaction. Self-analysis can be challenging for you and you tend to refuse to develop a solid, permanent idea of yourself - and this plays a lot of tricks on you.
The behavioral roles and models you adopt are based mainly on mental processes. You determine your purposes in life after careful reflection; you are attracted by intellectual theories and systems. A mobile personality, you are skilled at meeting people and may spontaneously establish very close friendships, even if they are not usually lasting. Impressionable and subject to the pressures of your environment, your relationships, both private and professional, could be relatively unstable.
The following psychological study is a "blind" analysis which cannot take into consideration factors proper to your social background or education. Nevertheless, it describes the basic structure and dynamic of your psyche as the result of an interplay of various influences; that is, without confining it to certain categories or arbitrarily putting a label on it. Certain contradictions may appear, but they are an integral part of the paradoxes and ambivalence of your nature. It is impossible for us to predict which tendency will win out. That will depend on your decision.
Consciousness and The Ideal of Self:
You are searching for stability. You want to find a firm, unchanging structure for your life. But your efforts to achieve this ideal are often vain, because unconsciously, you are also inhabited by the opposite desire. Every time you reach what you believe to be a good balance, you realize you want something entirely different. You should become aware that the concepts of stability and balance are difficult to apply to life. By definition, life is movement, change, and perpetual instability.
You have a paternal complex and, as a result, some trouble finding your identity. Perhaps your father or a father figure was absent physically or emotionally during your childhood, which deprived you of the patterns or models which are usually helpful in structuring a personality. Because you might have lacked a particular sense of security which could be provided by a paternal presence, as well as the examples of behavior to follow in confronting the difficulties inherent in every life, you were forced to protect yourself against negative influences and find your own system in order to grow and feel secure.
Although this system was quite useful to you as a child, it has now settled in to such a degree that it interferes with your evolution. Psychological defense mechanisms and crutches which were once useful now encumber your mind or inhibit your developmental efforts. As a result, in certain situations, it is difficult for you to assert yourself, and you tend to remain an awkward or passive observer. Because your authoritarian urges are mainly directed at yourself rather than others, you sometimes feel guilty about your behavior. You judge yourself severely, and sometimes punishes yourself by setting difficult tasks for yourself. Gradually, you should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.
You have a taste for luxury and magnificence, for a dazzling social life and a distinguished career. When things are going well for you, you tend to think of yourself as the center of the universe, an attitude which those close to you do not always appreciate. Although you are quite likely to succeed in your ambition to become wealthy and popular and lead a remarkable life in the outer world, your lack of moderation and overweening self-confidence expose you to some danger. Your exaggerated optimism could create difficulties by causing you to make errors in judgment.
You are extremely sensitive and receptive and tend to live in osmosis with your surroundings. Your individuality almost seems to be diluted in a flood of sensations and impressions which are continually washing over you, and you sometimes find it difficult to communicate your feelings to other people. This tide of emotion is a source of inspiration and intuition, but your fluid inner structure and organization sometimes make it difficult for you to grasp the essence of your dreams and share them with other people. You are not at all combative, and this tends to hinder your efforts to fit into society and assert yourself productively.
You are likely to prefer fantasy to reality, but your refusal to abandon your unattainable dreams is a psychological trap you have fallen into without realizing it. You must understand that by running away from your obligations and commitments, you only increase the feelings of guilt which made reality so distasteful in the first place. Once you free yourself from this pernicious process, you have a great deal of potential for fulfilling yourself in the outer world, either by devoting yourself to some sort of social work or by cultivating your considerable artistic talents.
You have an inalienable awareness of the void and the vanity of existence. You are sometimes disoriented and deconstructed by an unknowable, unconscious force and tend to ignore or disparage the superficial pleasures and pains of daily life, preferring to dive into the depths of human experience as deeply as your intellectual, emotional, and spiritual capacities permit. Grappling with your "fundamental nature," with the deepest and most primitive part of yourself, you are sometimes aghast at the discovery of the sheer power of your instincts and feels an imperious need to cope with them. This special consciousness you have been endowed with is somewhat beyond the bounds of conventional schools of human understanding and thought and may be a source of identity problems for you at the outset. It is not easy for you to recognize yourself in any social or narcissistic models, or identify with any existing roles or attitudes, so you sometimes find yourself forced to assert and express your own identity in a way which may strike your contemporaries as strangely intense if not eccentric.
Adaptation and Sensitivity:
You are pragmatic and realistic. You evaluate people and things according to practical, common-sense criteria instead of abstract concepts. A sensualist and lover of luxury, you have a penchant for material comfort and take great joy in physical pleasures. In relation to others, socially and privately, you like to build stable relationships and are not especially fond of change. Your warmth gives you a great deal of ease when meeting people, as clients (for business purposes), but your close relations also benefit from this affection and your ability to express your feelings naturally and openly.
You maintain strong ties with your past, and it often seems difficult for you to open your heart to new people. Your love affairs might exist on the surface level, because your lust and sensual desire rarely turn into a need to understand, protect, and care for the other. Moreover, it is difficult for you to meet partners who combine the ideals of the tender parent and the great lover.
You have a sensitive personality. You may jump to conclusions, which could disrupt relationships, as well as career plans. You are subject to cyclical energy flows and go from periods of feverish activity to periods of withdrawal and introspection. The aggressive element in your behavior may be explained by emotional problems you may have experienced in infancy: your mother, or a mother figure, may have had an energetic and volatile personality.
You are emotional and tend to react suddenly and excessively as soon as your sensitivity is touched. Although you feel that your independence, freedom, and self-sufficiency are fundamental values, you are sometimes frustrated by your need to rely on your family or friends. Moreover, you do not always grant the freedom of other people the same respect as your own. Likewise, you are sometimes angered by expressions of maternal tenderness, as if you feared that it would doom you to eternal dependency. Your ambivalent behavior, full of jagged edges, may be traced back to the relationship you had with your mother or a mother figure. Although you were dependent on them, they may have rejected you. Now this attitude is extended to any situation in which your sensitivity comes into play and emotional bonds are liable to form. To ward off your feelings of dependency, you sometimes tend to become destructive. Based on denial, your reactions might be fierce, impulsive, excessive, erratic, or contradictory.
Love and Sensuality:
Your sensitivity may sometimes overwhelm your partners, and your compassion for the other is profound. You readily sacrifice your own interest to others, to provide help and assistance. A romantic as well as an idealist, you sometimes lack discernment in the choice of your partners. You are fairly confused and evasive and have trouble expressing your feelings clearly. Nevertheless, you are capable of devoting yourself entirely to the person you love. You have a tendency to daydream and become lost in yourself.
Your birth chart indicates an emotional function which is expressed in a direct and fairly impulsive way. You enjoy reaching out to other people and making discoveries. An eternal teenager with your gaze riveted on the future, you are imbued with an eminently subjective and personal idealism.
Your love of life, gaiety, and aura of sensuality make you very attractive. You have simple tastes which may border on the rustic. You are likely to marry on a wild impulse. But you will adapt to the situation very well. A lover of culinary delights, and certainly a good cook yourself, you are skilled at creating a happy, comfortable atmosphere in your home.
You have a sensuous nature which seeks out simple, natural pleasures. A tender, easygoing companion would be an ideal match for you. You will be quite happy with a fairly tranquil existence, at home, perhaps surrounded by children.
You have a great emotional ideal, full of subtlety and tenderness. However, you tend to be overwhelmed by your imagination and may not be selective enough when choosing a partner. Your romantic and trusting nature may make you vulnerable. Although you strive to establish peaceful, uncomplicated relations, you sometimes experience painful disappointments. Your artistic delicacy and refinement provide you with a sincere love of the arts, music, and literature. You are likely to be a gifted poet.
From the outside, you seem to be detached and aloof, but on the inside you are an extremely complex individual, full of contradictions. Because you sometimes feel vulnerable emotionally, you try to control not only your own feelings and urges, but may also strive to manipulate those of your partners. You aspire to a profound and enduring spiritual unity, but at the same time, the idea of abandoning yourself and yielding to the other terrifies you. This anguish may be a source of rather extreme behavior patterns and a somewhat self-focused attitude which could damage the relationship. Because you are guarded and somewhat secretive, you tend to be suspicious and are especially uneasy about spontaneous intimacy, although you are fascinated by sexuality. Within the privacy of the couple, you will not express your feelings unless you are subject to some tension. Life may be peppered with frequent crises and feuds, arguments and spats which usually act as erotic provocation. This derivation of eroticism from anxiety tends to be one of the fundamental characteristics of your emotional and sexual functioning. As a result, you are likely to be attracted by stormy and complicated relationships.
Mental and Intellect:
You have a rather irrational mind and a voracious intellect, which is usually subject to the rule of your prolific imagination. Although you are likely to have flashes of intuition which may prove to be correct, your thought processes are sometimes messy and confused. Your mind, which is oriented in many different directions at the same time, is ruled by your emotions and feelings. In tune with psychic and parapsychic phenomena, your thinking requires only the adjunct of structure to rise from the level of a blurry, uncertain, undifferentiated mass to that of a really significant vision with a grip on the real world.
You express your thoughts and ideas in direct, spontaneous outbursts. You are fairly extroverted and eager to discover and understand the outer world. An idealist, you look forward to a bright future but are sometimes subjective and reckless.
As an intellectual, you have a curiosity so lively it borders on the inquisitorial. Your interest in dark secrets and hidden knowledge leads you to do all sorts of arcane research. You are both sensitive and pragmatic, with an intuition so keen you seem to be able to sniff out and expose the complex, mysterious inner workings of both systems and individuals.
Although you are sometimes unable to express the findings of your investigations clearly, you are nevertheless an expert in symbols, hieroglyphics, runes, and other codes and ciphers. Rather ironic and sometimes cynical, you strike out with your venomous wit the way a poisonous snake neutralizes its prey. Your doubts and uncertainties may sometimes lead to nearly unbearable anxiety or anguish.
Jupiter is the first dominant in your astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:
In traditional astrology, Jupiter has always been considered as the Great Benefactor, the planet of luck and success such as personal fortune, social prominence, professional prestige, high political position. The Jupiterian bounty is peerless! In psychological terms, this planet has a much vaster significance. As the biggest planet in the solar system, it does preside over the process of personal expansion, interpreted to be fitting into society better and finding an appropriate match between one's individual ambitions and the aspirations of the group.
This growth is accompanied by a feeling of self-confidence, which, in turn, buoys up an even greater externalization and expansion of the ego - hence the planet's flattering reputation. But this snowball effect (Jupiter smiles and the world smiles with you), in which social skills magnify confidence and boldness reaps many rewards, betrays the negative side of Jupiter: extreme and excess.
Although grandeur was the characteristic of the "king of the gods," errors of judgment, poor taste, and sometimes selfishness and pride are also likely to be part of the Jupiterian package. It is important to note that the extension of the ego may be a form of escape; it is tempting to hide behind one's popularity and social success, which are fairly easy to obtain, rather than be really demanding with oneself. The Jupiterian has a tendency to amplify qualities out of compensation, to avoid seeing weaknesses and flaws. As a result, you must be aware of the risk of over-identifying with your social mask, which would cause you to neglect your inner self and deep nature.
Uranus is the second dominant in your astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:
This planet symbolizes the principle of independence and self-sufficiency, as well as a principle of transformation. Its most striking characteristic is distance from others: the Uranian strives to stand out from the herd, distanced from structuring influences like convention, tradition, etc. Although this need to free yourself from the confines of convention, tradition, and family symbolizes an appeal for freedom and a desire to evolve beyond the bounds of physical limits toward a spiritual dimension, it may also correspond to a form of escape.
This is why you sometimes need to cut yourself off from situations or relationships which feel stifling to you. Your intense fear of being swallowed up psychologically causes you to react to certain emotional demands by making yourself remote or running away. You need a lot of space and frequent change. In a relationship, you are seeking a certain degree of intellectual excitement. Without it, you feel as though an unbearable, suffocating boredom sets in.
By refusing certain concessions to convention which are practically inevitable, you may find yourself in unpleasant situations. Finding an intelligent alternative to the routine set by the rigid forms of the past is extremely different from rebelling against any form of authority, in the settings of family, school, business, or society. One of the major problems you have to solve is how to wield your freedom, in your emotional relationships, as well as your relationships with society.
Saturn is the third dominant in your astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:
As one of the planets historically thought to be on the outer limits of the solar system (until the "modern" planets were discovered), Saturn has always been associated with the moon, itself a peripheral heavenly body because it belongs to Earth and not to the solar system. Therefore, both Saturn and the moon are aspects of a protection principle (the moon encompasses the earth in the same way as Saturn and its rings encompasses the solar system). Like the moon, Saturn rules a security/insecurity dialectic, but where the moon's concerns the private, intimate aspects of the individual, Saturn influences social and collective security.
Saturn can be thought of as the polar opposite of the moon (the archetype of the mother, but also of the child, and therefore related to orality). The god Saturn ate his children in order to reign and thus, represents the archetype of the mother (motherhood), the grandmother, and the sage (wisdom). The domination of Saturn thus indicates a maternal complex or, at least, an issue related either to the biological mother or to the symbolism of motherhood. This influence may result in a problem of identity and difficulties in aging which will make themselves evident in personal crises at every passage of this planet, every seven years—thus at the age of 7, at 14 or 15, and 21, 28, etc.
Depending on the psychological context in which you are developing, you may overcome or overcompensate your identity complex and gradually acquire a strongly structured personality, or, conversely, remain in a state of immaturity which would probably be detrimental to your destiny.
The second house is an area of the sky which is especially important in your theme, because it contains several planets, including the one which rules your rising sign. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.
According to tradition, this area is related to intellectual abilities. It is also associated with the immediate family environment: brothers and sisters, peers and classmates, and people in the social setting we relate to every day, like neighbors, etc. Likewise, study, writing and publication, correspondence and letters, mobility and short-distance travel are also attributed to this house. Another aspect of it concerns bodily movements and exchanges, like the circulation of the blood, breathing, nerve networks, the hands, etc.
In essence, this house corresponds to the mental interface between you and your environment. Indeed, if intelligence is the ability to adapt to one's environment, it is true that on the other hand, the environment has a basic influence on the formation of character and the way you will react to life. By asserting itself, adapting and claiming a place of its own in society, your self is formed and defined and learns to know its potentials and its limitations. In doing so, the self develops elaborate mental tools.
If this house is especially significant in your chart, it means that you will find positive adaptation to your environment, your main challenge in life. It is likely that the presence or absence of brothers and sisters was a major factor in your development, and that one of the main psychological issues you are dealing with is resolving the problems of identity and selfhood which arose in relationships with siblings and peers.
Biologically, your nervous system is likely to be fairly vulnerable; in any case, it is the barometer of your general physical well-being. Psychologically, communication, both verbal and written, is your passport to fitting in, to social integration. You are quite likely to embark on lengthy studies which will enable you to develop the skills necessary for effective communication and productive exchange. Regardless of the level at which you function in society, you will obey an urge to express your ideas and opinions and communicate with others about yourself.
Many people mistakenly believe that astrology is too deterministic. However, as even the ancients said, "The stars incline but do not determine." In fact, the astral chart is evidence that each of us is accountable only to ourselves for our life and destiny. Neither heaven nor the occasional shell of human contacts can be held responsible for the situation down here on earth. Astrology shows us that life is what we make of it. All we really obtain is what we decide to accomplish ourselves of our own volition.
If you really want to improve and transform yourself, the first step is to become aware of the weaknesses which may be holding you back and preventing your evolution:
- your overweening ego
- your need to show off
- your aggressiveness
- your excesses
For you, the main goal to aim for, in order to give purpose and meaning to your life, is to manage to be more practical. You must strive to implement your ideals in your daily life, in your relations with the people and objects you encounter every day. You should also try to introduce the abstractions and generalizations which make up your personal philosophy into down-to-earth realities."
