Of a fairly introspective nature, you are attentive to your special inner qualities which enable you to perceive the very essence of the people you meet, the situations you encounter, and the objects you see. You have the ability to understand through your intuition. This faculty is based upon an openness to the other, and thus a certain duality: a budding extroversion, and the predominance of the object over the subject (yourself) in your consciousness. As a result, you have a strong sense of the group and would sacrifice your own ego rather than commit something that is a sin in your eyes, neglecting your social obligations or failing to fulfill your duties to the people you are close to. You can sometimes be perceived by others as unreliable or untrustworthy, due to a sort of opportunism or disloyalty. However, these are superficial characteristics. The real reason for your behavior is psychological and resides in the fact that you are ready to do anything to maintain the harmony of the group (or simply satisfy the expectations of the other). However, you sometimes lack self-assertion, and this makes you contradictory and unreliable when you face certain superficial decisions. Moreover, you have a chameleon-like ability to blend in with situations and prevailing moods. You are thus quite a success in social settings, and you thrive on friendships, partnerships, networks, and corporate liaisons. Your mind is amazingly flexible, arranging harmonious and productive encounters between people and ideas. All of your emotional health is invested in a desire to participate, to mingle, to exchange. Although you are consciously aware of an ardent desire to be sociable, unconsciously you blame yourself for failing to achieve your ideal goal, which always seems to elude you. This is why you sometimes have phases of discouragement, followed by renewed zeal in your work efforts or group participation. Because you are always seeking the perfect group, the ideal form of cooperation, you sometimes despair of ever attaining it. You have a natural tendency to find common ground for people, to reconcile differing opinions and viewpoints, and you are partial to any arrangement which promotes cooperation or fellowship. Because you are not aggressive by nature, you know how to make peace; you are a skillful diplomat and go-between. As a corollary to your opening to society, you are closely related to your environment. The society in which you move contributes in large part to the formation of your character and attitude. Through social contacts and friendships, you have elaborated a personal code of ethics which reconcil

Due to the influence of Sagittarius (the Centaur-Archer) rising, Alex Beresford, like the half-animal, half-human Centaur, has a dual, ambivalent nature, vagrant and capricious. It is natural for him to be simultaneously conventional and rebellious. He can happily submit to society and convention for a time, only to emerge committed to rugged individualism, or vice-versa. His inner attachment to an ideal of liberty and emancipation does not prevent him from adopting a sociable, pleasant attitude at social events. This dichotomy in his personality grants him such useful social skills as adaptability and poise, but inside, he faces a quest for his true identity and consciousness. His primary psychological task is to maintain the harmony reigning between the two entities dwelling within him. He must not limit himself to being either one or the other. He will achieve true psychic and existential stability by personifying a blend of these two behavioral tendencies. When he is comfortable with his individuality, he can radiate optimism and energy; flexible and elastic, he will delight in any change or unpredictability, without losing sight of his long-term purposes. Eminently social, he will express his true nature by becoming deeply involved with groups and taking on duties and responsibilities as a member. He will enjoy his ability to infuse them with his idealistic enthusiasm and visions for the future. His special gifts for dealing with energy make him apt to occupy a position of great social responsibility.

Alex Beresford finds his work rewarding. Daily life and routine activities are excellent sources of self-fulfillment for him.

Alex Beresford tends to live in an imaginary world; the distant and abstract sometimes interests him more than what is right at hand and realistic.

At the time of your birth, your rising sign was located in Sagittarius (the Archer), while the sun was passing through the sign of Libra (the Scales). 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
Sociability – Enthusiasm – Adaptability – Group spirit – Emotionality – Impressionability – Tolerance – Analytical mind – Peaceful disposition – Worldly concerns – Sense of harmony – Projection – Worldliness.

Deeply social and liberal-minded, you have a great sense of diplomacy and a gift for reconciling differing viewpoints. Friendly and willing to be of service, you are unable to refuse an appeal for help, and your courtesy can tend toward a certain sentimentalism. As a result, you commit yourself to too many people at the same time, and may sometimes feel spread too thin.

As an artist or student of art, you have a profound sense of beauty (harmony, rhythm, composition, associations and juxtapositions, etc.). You like your independence, but will nevertheless bow to custom and usage in good grace. Your sense of fairness and justice is keen, and you spontaneously take up the cause of the defenseless.

Born seven to ten days after the new moon, you are said to be a “first quarter” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration means that your character is strong-willed and sometimes proud, always determined to buck convention and innovate. Monotony is unbearable to you, and you chafe under the yoke of routine. As a result, you often run into trouble with authority figures. When overwhelmed by your conscience, you rave about how destructive it is to long for the past, how ridiculous it is to be old-fashioned, and how obsolete the old values are. Generally speaking, your monthly energy flow peaks about seven to ten-and-a-half days after the full moon. You would be wise to schedule intensive work phases at that time, as well as ambitious and demanding projects. At that time, your initiatives will be most successful, especially if you are trying to create something new, original, and cutting-edge!
