Your personality is adaptive. You understand and relate to the world around you via the medium of thought and intellect. Memorization, comparison, analysis, and the verbalization of your mental imagery are your favorite activities. You seek to extend your personality by a mental outreach to a multitude of new ideas and factors, becoming acquainted with an ever-increasing variety of facets of human nature. Thus, language and symbolic expression, written or oral, are your primary resources in life, although they are also potential pitfalls. Your eloquence, wit, and verve, your mastery of language, unquestionably give your power over other people (via communication) and things (science and technique). But taken to extremes, this faculty may lead to incoherency. It is thus vital for you to find an outlet for your flow of verbal expression, you must explain, communicate, and speak. If it is dammed up, you will undoubtedly suffer. Your flow of words is the expression of your vital energy, the proof that you are alive and well. If you are forced to be silent, you would be cut off from the bonds that hold you together. A kind of duality or split personality might emerge… remember Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? “They” were a classic case. For all of the above reasons, you are naturally gregarious and sociable. You make friends quickly and easily. Your contacts and networks are important to you, because they enable you to evolve. They are a source of self-fulfillment and identification. Any form of play is also important to you, and only severe depression will deprive you of your playfulness. You sometimes amuse yourself by acting out a variety of roles on the stage of life, just for the fun of it. Your animation and wit give you a talent for improvisation and adaptation. However, adaptability is a two-bladed sword. You are liable to find yourself in a superficial bind, having jettisoned certain important ideas in order to move about more freely. You are also sensitive, but your emotions and feelings are sometimes subject to the scrutiny and censorship of your intellect. Thus, you cannot free yourself to the strength of great passions and energies without idealizing them to a certain degree and giving them intellectual resonance. Wary of your irrational instincts and urges, you tend to control or repress them. But you will do well to learn that the intellect is not omnipotent, especially where instinct is concerned. Inhabiting a complex inner world, you sometimes feel

Alan Bersten was born on the three and one-half day after the full moon rose. He is said to be a “full moon” lunar type, which means that his character is objective, rational, and lucid. However, because the moon is opposite the sun at the time of the full moon, his objective tendencies are balanced by a more idealistic penchant.
