A "Strength" number precedes each ASPECT interpretation towards the end of the reading.

If your mouth is not a Cupid's bow and your teeth need capping, never mind! Your smile can put sunshine into a cloudy day, anyway. You are cordial and courteous under the most trying circumstances and seldom lose your poise. You're a good listener; also a scintillating and intelligent conversationalist. Your weakness is your indecisiveness, but your first choice is usually right, if only you could decide to accept it. Oh well! Nobody's perfect!

You are self-reliant, ambitious, optimistic and friendly. You may also be sarcastic, self-indulgent, impatient and tactless. Others may see you as irresponsible, and a capricious flirt. The truth is you are acutely aware of human values and enjoy improving potential. You relate well to children, animals and the environment, and find them all fascinating. You avoid commitment, which you feel restricts your freedom to expand. Your bluntness often disguises a compassionate heart, deserving of rewards for your generous contributions to our planet.

You are constantly on-the-go and may talk "off the top of your head" -- but you WILL talk. You sometimes enjoy gossiping, because an interaction with people is paramount in your life. Others may not understand your need for habitual conversation, but since you are clever and bright, you are probably well-liked. You excel in writing or debating and are always interested in learning something new. Your suitcase is half-packed and ready for spur-of-the moment travel. If you develop the persistence to complete half the projects you begin, you can count on success as a result of your efforts.

You are not always practical, but are unorthodox and misunderstood by those who do not appreciate that you are a true liberal of rare talent. You cannot be restricted by the bonds of convention or a regulated society. Whatever you do is done with all your heart, but once you have accomplished your purpose, you move on, which may give you a reputation of indifference. Your independence can result in loneliness, though you surround yourself with people and join causes in which you strongly believe. You search for enlightenment to bring you to the state of peace and tranquility you long for.

You enjoy a child-like lack of responsibility, so may not wish to leave childhood behind. You are likable, but sometimes irresponsible. Theater is a good place to project your emotions. Children identify with the child-in-you, so you are valuable as a teacher. You may be having too much fun to commit to long-term relationships or a demanding career, and must overcome qualities of superficiality and self-indulgence to exercise your highest potential.

You may use your quick mind and powers of speech to uplift and support. You enjoy the role of entrepreneur, but resent being relied on for solutions to problems that are not yours, since their weight impedes your progress. You can lack the resolve it takes to stay on course, or spread yourself too thin, trying to grasp too much at once.

Little escapes your notice. Your acute awareness, coupled with intuitive flashes, gives you an instant rapport with those you contact. You have a lively imagination, and an interest in education and love of words fits you for a career in journalism or some type of public communication. Try not to let restlessness or impatience dilute your ability to present all sides of a picture in honest reporting, which is the stuff from which history is documented.

You are extremely aware of social status and chances to improve your position. Your determination and ambition are admired by your business associates. You may marry the "boss's daughter/son". Once committed, you are unswervingly faithful and loyal, but your marriage can be "an arrangement" rather than a love-match. You will make your family proud, but may deprive your spouse or others of affection, due to your emotional nature, which is often severe and unyielding.

You express your desire for tranquility through the beauty you create. Your home will reflect your excellent taste, but you tend to extravagance.

If you choose a career in gardening, decorating, or caring for beautiful things, it will pay you well as you continue to demonstrate your special abilities to a sometimes-dreary world.

You perform "to the letter" and often to an "nth" degree that is unnecessary. You seem to have unlimited physical resources, take orders well and respect regimen, but may have difficulty in relating to co-workers. In arguments, you express quickly, accurately, and, too often, sarcastically. You are a valuable helpmate in personal relationships, though a need to avoid expressing yourself in a superior manner should be recognized and modified to an acceptable level.

A frustrated desire for recognition may make you feel as though you were fighting a losing battle.

You'll let someone else take the dinner check, but if it's haute cuisine, you don't mind paying for it. You may even spend to impress others, or talk them into investing, but your free-wheeling ways can squander their money. And, you're so cheerful about it, they may not even mind! Your motto is, "If it's there to enjoy, count the pleasure, not the cost!

Your dreams of a perfect partner may shatter more than once, but you will not give up trying. Somehow, though you possess fine qualities, you don't seem to attract the right people to appreciate them. It is difficult for others to accept your high ideals and you to compromise them.

You were born with the weight of the world on your shoulders and a profound sense of what is proper and what is not. You take life seriously and assume responsibility, but are frequently disappointed when others don't recognize your value.

Childhood sicknesses may also vanish, releasing you from other inhibitions which have held you back.

You have a good grasp of logic, so are unlikely to exceed your gifts, but use them to research areas that may contribute to the future of mankind.

Your talents do not end with being a superb raconteur. You can embellish the simplest thought with fascinating details worthy of publication. You may also have a gift of E.S.P. Your aptitude with electrical devices fits you for a successful career in communication, but you cannot depend on potential, alone, to accomplish your goals. You must first define them specifically; then build a firm foundation on which to base the application of your skills.

As peacemaker, it is second-nature to act as liaison in fostering partnerships that contribute to world-harmony. Your high intellect and demand for justice may place you in public service where you can aid worthy causes by your involvement. Your love of truth may influence big business, where deceit will be overcome with honor. On an individual level, all this may be accomplished by setting an example through the simple amenities you practice every day.

You are a force to be reckoned with, and are determined to make your mark on the world. You seem invincible because you strengthen your resolves in the face of adversity. Understanding yourself is essential to your success, or you cannot understand the needs of others. You may limit your talents by serving yourself, alone. As with most people given power, you must tithe your strength to pay your debt to the universe, or it may be turned against you.

You will be attracted to a career which allows you to maintain strong family ties. A career which allows you to be nurturing or productive will give you emotional and creative satisfaction.

Recognize that security also comes from loyalty and honesty in your business relationships. You are capable of making personal sacrifices in order to nurture the growth of those with whom you work.

Although you are good at switching careers because of your good sense of timing, avoid an indiscriminate, profligate lifestyle which would leave you with no permanent home base or relationship bonds. You need to have a home of your own and a settled existence. If you were the proprietor of a little shop, this could be a second home for you.

Occupations consistent with your nurturing style of work include home- or family-oriented businesses, restaurant owner or manager, real-estate broker, jobs connected with fluids or the public, politician, teacher, counselor, manufacturer, musician, entertainer, dancer, art dealer, advertiser, marketer, nurse or doctor. For the most personal career guide, also consider the nature of any planets which fall in the 10th house or conjoin the Midheaven, the sign and house placements of the moon, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

Your biggest stumbling block is your pride. If you don't receive the respect you feel you deserve, you will distance the love you desire. Learn to give without expectation of rewards and remember the selfless nurturing received in childhood. Offer that same care to others who need it now, if you would receive full value for emotional investments.

You may or may not resent heavy obligations forced on you by family demands at an early age. Yet, as you grow, you will find you INVITE the problems of others, and each you solve helps you mature into a worthwhile human being. No one is better equipped than you to handle whatever you must. Savor your strength and think what you might have become without it.

They can help you to contact your own feelings and teach you to respect and honor other people's feelings.

You may be so focused on the "bigger picture" that you have difficulty managing the many details of life. Balancing your checkbook or leaving your bedroom clean may seem beyond your abilities. Other tasks may be important, but you find it hard to concentrate long enough to complete them. Knowing your own lack of concentration and self-discipline, you may cling to established routines because you know that you are able to do important things through force of habit. If you do not flit from job to job, you could hold onto a job or a relationship for too long because you do not trust that you will be secure without it. Your lack of real world perspective may make it hard for you to distinguish that which really matters from that which is unimportant, so that you sometimes focus on small things while leaving the really big things undone.

Because personal feelings do not distract you, you might make a good scientist, though be aware that the greatest scientists let intuitive feelings be their guide.

With an abundance of planets in Mutable signs, you adapt easily to changing circumstances. Mentally quick, you adapt like a chameleon to give each what they want, until you are on to the next friend or interest. Life offers a succession of roles to play. Skilled at diplomacy and compromise, you make a good negotiator and appear to be everyone's friend. You actually are other-oriented, rather than self-oriented, and can be so busy meeting others' needs that you lack direction in your own life. Concentrate on finding friends of true worth and value. Be discriminating in your associations, in whom you choose to help. The endless flow from your mind, tongue, and hands will then work to return real value to you, which is what you deserve. You can probably only follow this advice just so far, though, because more than others the Universe sends you people in need, people for whom you are able to make a real difference. The assistance that you provide to the powerless may actually be remembered long after your facile mental output is forgotten. Your activities can also bring an end to institutions that have outlived their usefulness.
