You are a practical person with a strong sense of duty. You believe in your ability to accomplish goals and are confident in your skills. Your life is focused on material possessions and accomplishments, which means you are motivated by self-interest. You are also pragmatic and coherent, which helps you stay focused on your goals. You are not very creative, but you have a strong work ethic. This makes you successful in the material world. However, you may be limited by your earthiness and stubbornness.

You seem to have a high ideal of yourself. You are simultaneously dazzling yet rebellious, extremist yet sensitive and good-natured. Your behavior is ambivalent, and you blow hot and cold: emotional intensity alternates with cold impersonality. The truth is, you are aware of a deep feeling of inner disharmony which causes you to counteract your primary instincts and inhibit the free interplay of your emotional impulses and deep-seated urges. As a result, you refuse to engage in a narcissistic quest for the admiration of others as a means of confirming your own self-worth. Scorning such crude and primitive forms of self-enhancement, you seek purpose in life by looking inside yourself, examining and analyzing the emotional, mental, and spiritual components that make you tick. The only true source of self-esteem will be your objective creations and accomplishments. Your psychology should undergo a complete metamorphosis in midlife (at the age of 40-45 years).
