Aaron Smith has a dual nature. Two tendencies dwell within his psyche: one is related to his instincts and endows him with supreme strength and intense material desires, and the other flows from a higher psychic authority, the superego or human ideal, and inspires him with a precise awareness of his purpose and dignity as a human being among his fellows. The distinctiveness, if not the opposition, between these two tendencies is likely to trouble his quest for inner harmony at times. However, the difficulty you must overcome is not limited to a conflict between these two natures. Instead, you must choose which direction the energy generated by the contradiction will take. In other words, in more practical terms, if you identify with the power residing in society and the complex interactions of human beings, you can find one goal, one direction in which the power can lead. The positive side of this nature is the cohesive and all-encompassing understanding you derive from it. In daily life, you could be a resourceful and valuable organizer, designer, leader, or legislator. In fact, you have the native skills necessary for managing and leading a team of co-workers. The coherence of your thought is apt to enable you to budget and organize human energies for maximum profit and minimum loss. Overlooking from the outset trivial details and a tendency to be unable to see the forest for the trees, you can implement global, methodical systems and structures to solve problems. On another level, you have a nature profoundly attached to morality and ethics. You conceive of ethics as a practical system for human relations, not an idealistic and unattainable dream. Indeed, it should be noted that it is inexact to call you an idealist. If you seek an ideal, it is based on what already exists, by organizing it and putting it into practice, by seeing it operate smoothly and efficiently. Your originality comes from the fact that you always strive to go beyond common sense in search of a new perspective, which would enrich the spirit and transform values. All of these skills and resources predispose you to devote yourself to society. In the process, however, you are likely to overdo it to such a degree that your own personality is overshadowed. That is, you would identify too heavily with your social mask (your persona) and lose awareness of your individuality.
Due to the influence of Aquarius rising, you are attracted to people who are independent and individualistic. You may be aggravated by outer discipline and authority, but you also have a tendency to resort to eccentric and unconventional behavior, even if it shocks the people around you. You are also reluctant to be tied down unnecessarily, so you may exaggerate your detached “lone wolf” aspect. Actually, you are troubled by pervasive feelings of inner anxiety which sometimes force you to inhibit your emotional and instinctive urges. You have developed near-stoic self-control. Although, as a result, you appear to be more serious and reliable, you have lost some of your carefree joy and spontaneity. Others generally appreciate your solemnity and your intellectual qualities, the originality of your opinions, and the subtlety and keenness of your insights. However, your taste for paradox and provocation may not be for everyone. You are attracted by people who are exploring and discovering, and you enjoy modernistic or futuristic settings. Although you are more mind-oriented than sensual, you are quite honest when expressing your emotions, which often feel more platonic than passionate.
