You will find that the interpretation of your chart is written in simple
language, uncluttered by astrological jargon. If a statement appears to
contradict another statement, then you exhibit these opposite qualities at
different times in your life. For example, a statement that you are highly
sociable and gregarious and a statement that you prefer solitude seemingly
contradict each other; this means that you vacillate, and need both sociability
and solitude at different times.
The astrological factor that the interpretation is based on is also given. The
astrological factor is given for the benefit of astrologers and students of
astrology. If you are not a student of astrology, then obviously the factor will
not be meaningful to you, and you can ignore it.
If you find this interpretation of your birth chart interesting and informative,
you might want to discuss your birth chart with a professional astrologer to
learn more about the astrological influences on your life.

Chapter 1: General Characteristics
Your fundamental needs, values, and orientation towards life are symbolized by
the four astrological elements. Each person has their own unique balance of
these four basic energies: fire (warmth, inspiration, enthusiasm), earth
(practicality, realism, material interests), air (social and intellectual
qualities), and water (emotional needs and feelings).
Your "elemental make-up" is described below. Remember that most people are
"unbalanced" or lopsided, and if you are lacking or deficient in a certain
element (or elements), it simply means that you need to consciously develop that
aspect of yourself to learn to appreciate and/or to work harder in that
dimension of life.
Sometimes we overvalue the element that we are least endowed with, sensing it as
a lack within ourselves, but more often we neglect or ignore it. The qualities
described below will be reiterated and explained in more detail in the following
chapters.
Your gift lies in your ability to perceive, understand, and communicate about
matters of feeling, of heart and soul. You are thus well suited to any field
that involves working with people as a counselor or teacher, and even if you are
not so trained, others seek you out as an advisor, for you are able to clarify
and sensitively discuss their personal concerns and problems. Relationship is
really a primary importance to you and is the arena in which your richest and
most fulfilling experiences lie. You, even more than most people, require
friends and intimates to share your thoughts and your life with.
You also have an active and creative mind and are apt to spend much time
reading, thinking or daydreaming, and/or writing (stories, music, lyrics,
diaries, letters, etc.). Film or any media combining words with images and
emotions also fascinates you.
At times your mind and intellect may seem to be at odds with your instinctive,
emotional, feeling side, and it is your task to bring them together. You may
spend a lot of time cogitating and mulling over your experiences and feelings,
trying to understand and make sense of them.
You are quite sensitive (psychologically and physically) and may avoid direct,
active participation in life.
You are likely to be overly humble or unsure of yourself and to look to others
for inspiration, motivation, reinforcement, and approval. Tending to be somewhat
passive, you must learn how to take initiative and motivate yourself.
A lack of warmth (either physically, emotionally, or both) may be evident in
you, which can show itself physically as a low energy level, paleness and lack
of color in the skin, or a tendency to be easily chilled, and emotionally as a
marked coolness or aloofness with little spiritedness, joyfulness, or enthusiasm
for living. Eating warming, spicy foods, living in a warm, sunny place, and
using fire in your daily life (lighting candles, using a wood stove or fireplace
for heat) can help balance you. Also, spending time with warm, cheerful,
positive-minded people and developing a philosophy based on spiritual optimism
can stir up your own zest of life.
Positively, you are unlikely to be egocentric and have a capacity for great
patience and peacefulness.

Chapter 2: How You Approach Life and How You Appear To Others
The following is a description of your basic stance towards life, the way others
see you, the way you come across, the face you show to the world. In Chapter 3
you will read about the "The Inner You: Your Real Motivation", which describes
the kind of person you are at heart and where your true priorities lie. Read
this chapter and the next one and compare them - there may be significant
differences between them, in which case "the inner you" may not shine through
and others are in for some surprises when they get to know you at a more than
superficial level. This chapter describes the costume you wear, your role in
life, while Chapter 3 talks about the real person inside the costume.
You are very strong-willed and proud, but intensely private and not easy to know
well. Behind your quiet exterior lies a great deal of emotional depth,
sensitivity, complexity, and also fierce determination. When you want something
you go after it rather quietly but insistently and wholeheartedly - and you
usually get it.
You are not a person who lives lightly or superficially. You want to live
passionately and intensely and are not averse to challenge, danger, or to facing
the darker side of life - human pain and struggle. You function well in crisis
situations and often seek them out, for you enjoy the feeling of living at full
capacity.
You are very intuitive about other people and especially about their unspoken
feelings and hidden motives. You usually have strong, immediate gut reactions,
either positive or negative, which prove to be correct. You approach life very
instinctively and are not always fully conscious of why you feel or act as you
do. You also have a very strong affinity with animals - an acute sensitivity and
a nonverbal kind of rapport with them.
In relation to others, you are rather cautious, sometimes even suspicious, until
you get to know and trust them - and trust doesn't come easily to you. When you
commit yourself emotionally to someone, be it friend or lover, you are intensely
loyal and devoted to them and you also expect the same kind of unwavering,
undying loyalty in return. If you are ever betrayed by someone you care deeply
for, you are capable of hating and retaliating with as much fervor as you once
loved. Nothing is done halfway. In fact, you are intensely involved and often
jealously attached to whatever you care about, be it person, idea, or cause.
There is definitely a streak of emotional fanaticism in you.
Because of your natural reserve, others may see you as something of an enigma.
You are quite self-protective and often defensive. You are also very magnetic,
especially to members of the opposite sex.
You are cheerful, warm-hearted and social and strive for a pleasant life. You
like to be seen in social circles and are charitable to your fellow man. It
makes you happy to be with others and you are very sympathetic toward everyone.

Chapter 3: The Inner You: Your Real Motivation
Though you seem at first rather intense, reserved, and self-contained (as
described in the previous chapter), you are really quite social and interested
in people. And, while you are passionate and emotional, you are also quite
capable of being fair, reasonable, and rational as discussed below.
Harmony and balance are your keynotes. You instinctively understand the need to
accommodate other people's interests and desires, and you are always fair and
willing to meet the other person half way. Tactful, diplomatic, and with
considerable social awareness, you do all you can to avoid conflict and discord.
You express a spirit of cooperation and compromise and often achieve through
charm and discretion what would have been impossible to achieve by a direct,
forceful approach.
Getting along with others and pleasing them may be TOO important to you, for you
can be too dependent on others' approval and opinions to make your own
decisions. You will rarely act without getting the counsel and feedback of other
people. You prefer sharing and doing things together rather than on your own.
Being alone feels very unnatural to you, and you have a strong need for a
partner and intimate one-to-one relationships.
You invest a great deal of your energy in personal love and you are very
idealistic and romantic about marriage. You seek a partner who is your equal
intellectually, and who is capable of a mental relationship as well as a
physical and emotional one. You make a thoughtful, considerate friend or lover,
and you enjoy the traditional symbols of love - courtship, flowers, etc.
Relationships are like an art to you, one that requires time, attention, and
creative effort. You appreciate a partner who is subtle and polished, never
coarse or dull or blunt.
Fairness and equality, both in your personal life and in the world, are
extremely important to you. If you fight about anything, it is often about
something you feel is unfair and unbalanced. Balance is very important to you
and you believe in moderation in all things, avoiding fanaticism and extremism
of any sort.
You also have a strong need for beautiful, harmonious surroundings and a natural
sense of artistic style and grace, which is reflected in the way you dress,
furnish and arrange your home and workspace, etc. Everything must be
aesthetically pleasing and appropriate. Either working with people as a
counselor, advisor, consultant, or negotiator - or in an artistic field such as
design or photography, would be fulfilling to you.
Leading groups and classes, and being involved in community efforts, social
activities, events or movements are areas where you really shine and express
your creativity. An awareness of politics or the larger social impact of
individual actions is natural to you.
You are loving and well-loved by others, and have a strong need for kindness,
friendship, and affection. Your artistic and creative powers are also well
developed and you do everything in a harmonious, gracious, pleasing manner.
Aesthetics are very important to you. Your personal appearance and
attractiveness are also very important to you.
You are intensely willful, zealous, and fanatical, though often you hide the
intensity of your feelings and your personal motives and desires. You have an
infatuation with power and an almost compulsive desire for personal recognition,
the desire to be Somebody. You tend to worship Heroes who have powerful personal
magnetism and charisma, and often seek to emulate them. You also have both a
fear of, and an intense fascination with, death and the hidden, secret, dark
side of life.
You are very thorough and take your time thinking things through. You enjoy
games that require a lot of concentration and thought, like chess for example.
You also could find traveling very rewarding.

Chapter 4: Mental Interests and Abilities
You are an exacting perfectionist with a clear, logical, analytical mind and an
aptitude for work that requires meticulous attention to detail and efficient
organization. Well-grounded and pragmatic, you tend to develop specialized
skills and technical expertise in some practical field. Knowledge, ideas, and
theories don't really interest you unless they are useful in a tangible way. You
are inclined to analyze, measure, and dissect everything and to miss nuances,
subtle shades of feeling and meaning. Your strengths are in your precise
thinking, careful craftsmanship, and mastery of technical skills. You tend to be
very good at what you do and critical of others' work if it does not meet your
high standards.
You have a good understanding of group trends, politics, mass movements, and
community affairs. Sharing ideas with groups of people is something you do well
and are likely to be involved with. You collaborate well in group efforts and
are likely to be part of a successful team or large organization.
You have talent for establishing rapport and communicating with people, great
personnel skills, and you are adept at dealing with the public. You communicate
concern, interest, and the ability to listen, which encourages people to open up
and confide in you even if they do not know you well. You create closeness with
others by talking to them (even gossiping will do), or by writing intimate,
personal letters. Women feel you understand them.
You are physically vigorous and always ready for action. A quick thinker, you
are able to make swift decisions and may unknowingly create for yourself
opportunities to take control over others or to be a leader.
You have a positive outlook on life, are far-sighted and prudent, and have a
wealth of thoughts. You tend to plan large scale projects or ventures and are
likely to be very successful. You have good business associations and also love
social meetings.
You form your own conclusion about things and may have some difficulty in
exchanging your thoughts and ideas with others, although they regard your ideas
as having a good foundation. Most of your conversations tend to have a serious
overtone.

Chapter 5: Emotions: Moods, Feelings, Romance
You respond very much to the emotional tone and atmosphere around you, and can
be dominated by your fluctuating and unpredictable moods. You often appear
irrational to others because you cannot always explain the reason or source of
your feelings. Anyone who lives with you must accept your ups and downs and
appreciate your need for times of withdrawal.
You are also very sympathetic and understand the unspoken feelings and needs of
others. You take slights and rebuffs very personally and though you may forgive
a transgression by a friend or loved one, you never forget it.
You may have done extensive traveling in your early years, or in some way had a
background which enables you to understand and identify with many different
types of people or cultures.
You have a craving for things which are far away and foreign or for things you
have never experienced before. You want to completely immerse yourself in the
feelings and tastes of a new place, rather than simply have facts or an
intellectual appreciation. Emotionally, too, you are restless and something of a
wanderer.
You often feel that you must do something or be something other than what you
are in order to receive approval and acceptance from others. You are very
sensitive to criticism and easily feel left out or neglected, and though you may
appear cool or distant, you actually care very much about being included.
Because you are so sensitive, it may seem easier for you to withdraw into a
shell rather than risk the emotional bumps and bruises that can occur when you
let others really know you in an intimate, personal way. Your reserve and
caution make establishing a close emotional rapport with others difficult for
you, and you become very attached to the few people you consider "real friends".
You can gain inner security and strength through periods of solitude if you view
them as times to nourish yourself and develop your own interests, rather than as
times of loneliness.
You possess a certain inner greatness and because of your inner qualities, you
have the ability to influence others. People look to you for guidance and
advice, and your leadership is easily accepted by those with whom you come in
contact.
You possess the gifts of tact, courtesy, consideration, and a strong desire to
please and understand your love partner. Because you value harmony so much, you
will compromise a great deal to avoid any discord or conflict. You do not like
to dwell on controversial or emotionally difficult subjects, and often try to
"smooth things over" or "sweep them under the rug".
In love, you want an intellectual peer, an equal, and a friend. You are
attracted to people who have a certain finesse, delicacy, and subtlety. You
appreciate good manners and refinement and are not happy with a coarse, blunt
type of person.
You often hide your affection, or find your feelings difficult to express or get
across to the person you love. Being openly affectionate and trusting often
doesn't seem safe to you. You may feel your love won't be appreciated or
reciprocated. You may get involved in secret love affairs or fall in love with a
person who is quite unavailable to you. Love and sacrifice often seem to go hand
in hand for you - having to give something up to be with the one you love, or
having to relinquish some person or some aspect of an important love
relationship.
Intimacy does not come easily to you and you may appear cold or unfeeling to
others due to your emotional reserve and caution. Perhaps due to painful
relationships and separations in your early life, you do not trust others very
easily and it takes a long time to take down all of your barriers and defenses.
You may feel that you have few friends or people that really care about you. You
need to learn to value and love yourself more and to express your appreciation
for others more openly.
When it comes to love, you are apt to feel pulled in several directions at once.
In addition to your desire for depth and for security in your relationships, you
have an impulsive side and need a lot of variety and excitement, as discussed in
the following paragraphs. These urges do not have to conflict, but they
certainly can, especially if you act on your spontaneous impulses without much
consideration for their long-term effects on your personal life.
While you may seek loving companionship and an "everlasting" love, this is not
easy for you to find -- or more precisely, to sustain. When you become
romantically involved with someone, either you or the other person will create
rifts once a certain level of comfort and predictability has been achieved. Even
if there is no outward break in the relationship, a certain emotional aloofness
or dissatisfaction is apt to develop. This is because you really want both
closeness and absolute freedom --a combination that is difficult to attain.
However, if you do not at least attempt to honestly fulfill both of these urges,
events seemingly out of the blue will wreak havoc in your closest relationships.
You have a rich, colorful, dreamy imagination and a refined sense of beauty.
Involvement in the arts, or with artistic, sensitive, or spiritually inclined
people is very satisfying to you. In your friendships and romantic
relationships, you tend to be unselfish, giving, and forgiving. You might enjoy
joining with others for charitable events or social service.
You experience powerful, compelling emotional and sexual attractions, and you
may feel that you have little choice or control over your desires. You have an
intense need for love and may be emotionally greedy or insatiable. Your love
life is passionate and often tumultuous and painful as well. Jealousy, power
struggles, or possessiveness can become areas of conflict in your relationships.
Positively, you can be unusually creative and bring about beneficial and healing
changes in the lives of others, motivated by your deeply felt love.
You tend to suppress your feelings and approach other people with great reserve.
You may feel lonesome, but unable to bridge the gap between you and others. But
once you enter a relationship, you will be faithful and steady in your feelings
for your partner.
You find it easy to demonstrate your love and affection for others and to talk
about love, and you tend to reveal your most personal feelings to people in your
intimate circle of friends.

Chapter 6: Drive and Ambition: How You Achieve Your Goals
You are a perfectionist and have high standards for your own work. You often
feel that if you want something done right you must do it yourself, for others
do not do as thorough a job as you do. Doing a task well is very important to
you, and you may labor over minute details that others wouldn't bother with. You
strive for accuracy, efficiency, and precision, and you become very irritable
when things are not done "right".
On the other hand, you can become so much of a perfectionist and so
self-critical that you will not even attempt many activities and projects,
feeling that your efforts simply won't be good enough. You are usually modest
and realistic in assessing what you can accomplish and, if anything, you
underestimate yourself. Of course, practice makes perfect, and if you do apply
yourself diligently in some area, you gradually gain self-confidence as you
master skills and develop expertise.
You conserve your energy and pace yourself so that you do not waste or diffuse
your efforts. An unwillingness to take risks or venture from the beaten track
can sometimes limit your opportunities. In short, you may not aim high enough
and settle for too little in life.
You are a team player and work well in collaboration with others who share your
goals, ideals, and intentions. You can coordinate group efforts and inspire
people to work toward a shared goal.
Team sports are also a lot of fun for you, and you could be a leader, coach, or
director of any group endeavor.
You have a rather cocky, confident, we-can-do-it attitude which people in your
environment pick up on quite readily. Inspiring, motivating, and encouraging
others to go out and do their very best is one of your innate gifts. You have
faith in the power of action and boldness, and enjoy imitating new programs and
projects.
You are optimistic, generous and enterprising, and have an enthusiastic outlook.
You have a strong desire to make something of yourself and are likely to be
successful. Almost any initiative that you take probably will work out as you
want it to.
Because of your somewhat negative attitude, you could feel listless a great deal
of time and are likely to become physically inactive. You tend to become easily
overwhelmed; your objectives tend to be unclear, and you question your ability
to attain them.
You strive to be in the public eye and may live by the motto "work brings
distinction". You have a positive attitude towards your family and your career
and are able to work independently as well as with your colleagues in successful
team-work.
You are able to do your work and take responsibility for overcoming your own
problems and challenges in life, while at the same time being open to spiritual
comfort, aid and guidance. A good balance between being well-grounded and being
receptive to spirit or the inner world is working in your favor. Enjoying
simplicity and cultivating peace enable you to evolve and to work through your
challenges.
In your professional life you are apt to have a great deal of recognition and
success. Early on in your career, important and influential people in your field
are apt to notice you and help you along. At some point, you yourself are apt to
be quite an influential person -- at least in your chosen line of endeavor. You
are headed for a leadership role.
Your life direction seems to depend a great deal on other people and your
relations with others often may influence your decision in planning your
objectives. This could be to your advantage at times, but also could cause
occasional setbacks.

Chapter 7: Growth and Expansion: Areas That You Enjoy
Your strength lies in your unwillingness to settle for superficiality or
shallowness in any area of your life. You are unafraid of going to extremes and
experiencing the depths. The mysterious and the unknown are very attractive to
you. Your intuitive understanding of others' inner drives and motivations is
highly developed also.
You have an optimistic outlook on life and to others you appear jovial,
confident, and expansive. You do what you can to be encouraging and helpful to
other people, and your generosity and lack of pettiness makes you very
well-liked.
Because you see yourself as a lucky person, you may feel that you can "get away
with anything", without negative consequences. You tend to go to excess and have
little sense of moderation (or even caution, at times).
You have a need to escape from the demands of everyday life, and reach out to
something bigger, more exotic, more exciting. Traveling is good for you. You may
also daydream, fantasize, or philosophize a great deal.
You have a knack for bringing new ideas and plans into fruition with less
difficulty than others. Your positive, enthusiastic attitude attracts helpful
situations and opportunities to you.
You have good vision and foresight and your aspirations and objectives are
likely to be aimed high. A certain element of luck seems to surround you, and
you probably will be both lucky and successful in your enterprises.

Chapter 8: Areas That Challenge You Or Are Difficult For You
You take your personal relationships so seriously that they may seem more like
work, constant effort, and compromise, rather than a free and enjoyable sharing.
You may feel that relationships in general require more of you than they are
worth, and you enter into any close relationship cautiously and conscientiously.
You also fear entrapment in close relationships.
You may have nebulous but ever-present guilts and fears that are difficult to
pinpoint or eradicate. It's as if you don't trust Life itself, and are always
seeking ways to defend yourself from its dangers and its unknowns. You must
learn to overcome your ingrained habit of discouragement and anxiety, and to see
the world more as a friendly place than as a treacherous one.
You work quietly to get ahead, but may have to work harder than others to gain
recognition for your efforts. Reserved and shy, you tend to build a wall between
yourself and others and seem to be more receptive to older and mature people.
You have a sense of duty and responsibility, but may find it difficult to make
up your mind and come to a decision. Somewhat slow to act, and your need to be
fully prepared, inclines you to let good opportunities slip away at times.
Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which you instinctively and habitually
revert to when under stress - a mostly unconscious process and one which you are
apt to overdo because it is so familiar and thus easy for you. The direction you
need to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is
also described.
Your natural instinct, especially when under stress, is to passively flow along
with whatever is easiest, not clearly analyzing or assessing your situation and
perhaps even trying to escape seeing your situation clearly by indulging in
fantasies, intoxicants, and the like. Dreaminess and impracticality, being
unfocused and undefined (at least in certain areas) are ways you cope with
stress. You also have trouble setting boundaries and saying no.
Your path of development lies in cultivating discrimination and clarity,
becoming more precise, developing technical and practical skills that will
enable you to function more efficiently in the world. Finding a way to be of
practical service is also important.
The arena you are most likely to wrestle with these issues is in your public
life and career. All of these issues will impact your reputation and standing in
your community or professional circle, as well as how you achieve your important
life goals and aspirations.
The specific habits which are likely to hold you back, or which you are prone to
overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:
Going to extremes, willful rebelliousness and an instinctive antiauthoritarian
attitude, seeking constant (and often purposeless) movement or change,
involvement with unreliable people, and seeking individual freedom at any cost.
You tend to pick your friends and associates very carefully and are always on
the look-out for responsible and congenial people. This enables you to feel
secure with your colleagues and you enjoy good relations with them.
You have a tendency to shy away from other people, and you react toward others
in an almost fearful way. You seem to lack confidence in yourself and for this
reason may feel that you lack the ability to adapt easily to others.
You enjoy contact with others who can tune into the spiritual world and are
likely to join groups or associations that sponsor psychics and that explore the
connection with karmic influences.

Chapter 9: Originality and Imagination
Areas Where You Are Creative, Unique, Unstable, or Compulsive
You are uninhibited and have an outrageous, crazy sense of humor. You love to
get loose and you're often impulsive or "wild". Even if you appear conventional,
you are attracted to highly eccentric, creative, or unusual companions. In
romance, you are happiest when there is an element of surprise,
unpredictability, and adventure. You may choose unstable love partners.
You are a very idealistic person, and you want to see your ideals, hopes, and
dreams made concrete and real in the everyday world. You are driven to put your
ideals into action.
When young you may be rather aimless or confused about your place in the world.
In early adult life it is likely that you struggle to find ways to express your
imagination, fantasies, and ideals in your career. Work that involves
compassionate service (such as medicine or the ministry) may be your calling. If
you lack personal integrity and honesty, you quickly go to the opposite extreme
and you can con others through dishonesty and trickery. Music, art, film-making
or entertainment are also areas in which you are well-suited.
You have strong philosophical views and there are times in your life when you
passionately crusade for a cause that you deem noble and of utmost importance.
Although your intentions are good, you are not as objective as you think you
are, and your views are more colored by personal experiences and concerns than
you realize. Nevertheless, you can also be instrumental in bringing about
positive change if you can avoid being dogmatic. Also, you may radically change
or revise your own personal beliefs, even your most cherished convictions, many
times during your life.
Your normal energies could suddenly go down and you are likely to experience
self-doubt about your abilities and inner fears that your security will be taken
away. You also could be subject to sudden, unexpected upsets in your life.
You get excited easily and tend to raise yourself into an emotional state with
the possibility of losing your self-control. You are very restless and display a
degree of nervousness when you are with other people.
You are quite amorous and subject to sudden attachments that are not lasting.
Somewhat inconsistent in love, you are likely to fall in love many times. Some
of your relationships could begin under unusual circumstances.
You are able to organize activities well and seek active cooperation with
others. Some of your meetings could occur suddenly, or you may unexpectedly
start to work on a project with others. At times you also could have joint
upsets or anxieties.
You have the ability to quickly exploit every situation and are able to turn
circumstances around in your favor. You fanatically strive for improvements and
are likely to achieve great success, but should beware of succeeding at someone
else's expense.
You are attracted to ideas that are deep and mysterious and you would like to
explore the depths of the universe. But you seem to be overly receptive to those
ideas and could become obsessed with your thinking, leading to nervous
exhaustion or even a breakdown.

Chapter 10: Generational Influences: Your Age Group
In this chapter we will discuss characteristics and traits of your generation.
Of course, you may not share all of the characteristics of your generation, but
you are greatly affected by the tone that is set by your generation.
The first topic is "The Subconscious and Emotional Drive of Your Age Group". In
this section we will describe a deeply felt urge, even compulsion, of your age
group. This deeply felt drive comes to the surface with great force and power,
and consequently leaves in its wake considerable upheaval and change. The second
topic is "The Ideals and Illusions of Your Age Group", that describes the
dreams, fantasies, and spiritual aspirations of your age group. The third and
last topic is "What is New and Different in Your Age Group", which describes
areas in which your age group tends to be innovative, inventive, unusual, and
also where it may be unstable and unreliable.
The characteristics described below may affect a group of people for anywhere
from a few years to about 30 years. There are one or more different astrological
factors described in each of the three sections below.
The Subconscious and Emotional Drive of Your Age Group
You are part of a 25 year group of people who have strong feelings for home and
country. You are a sentimental group, and feel deeply attached to your family
and your country. You cling to the familiar, are distrustful and fearful of
different cultures, and consequently a great deal of racial and ethnic prejudice
is common among your age group.
Your need for closeness and togetherness runs very deep and causes you to bond
closely to family members and old friends, and also makes you prone to be
involved in mass movements and group activities because they feed your largely
subconscious need for acceptance and support by others. Unfortunately, your age
group is easily carried away by a group frenzy and many of you often lack the
integrity or courage to think and act in an independent and rational way.
Your generation is very emotional and tenderhearted. Many of your group
sacrificed a great deal to help your children or other family members, while
other generations are unwilling to give as much as you have. Your tender
feelings and regard for the well-being of others can spur your age group to make
contributions towards the feeding of the hungry, care for the neglected, and
support for the needy, particularly children and mothers. You are a group of
people with a strong heart and a helpful hand. Many of you have parents and/or
children who are not nearly as supportive and helpful; many of your
contributions are not completely appreciated or even go unnoticed.
You were also born during a period that lasted approximately 5 years and is
characterized by a very dynamic and competitive spirit. From your age group come
many reformers and dynamic personalities who introduce fundamental changes in
every area of life, whether it be science, politics, etc. You are part of a
dynamic wave of highly spirited individuals who are very progressive. You have
the opportunity to be part of efforts to introduce a great deal of reform, most
of which will be positive and constructive.
The Ideals and Illusions of Your Age Group
You are part of a 14 year group of people that have a very vivid and colorful
imagination. A love of color, fashion, and drama is very strong. Your generation
gave tremendous impetus and growth to Hollywood movies and other spectacular
arts. Most people of your age group have many fantasies and naive, starry-eyed
ideas about movie stars and other idols. Needless to say, this tendency to
idolize someone can lead to big disappointments and those of you who married
early in life projected your fantasies on your spouse, and had to gradually face
the realities as you matured.
What is New and Different in Your Age Group
You are part of a 7 year group of people who are very creative in the arts,
music, literature, and philosophy. Your age group draws upon some new
inspirations and has a talent for weaving many seemingly disparate styles into a
new, refreshing synthesis. Much of the creative inspiration of your period is
very refined and sensitive, and some of the greatest artistic and literary works
of your generation will receive full recognition only after many decades have
passed. You are a group that is primarily concerned with the quality of your
creative endeavor rather than its distribution and marketing.
