You have a dual nature. On the one hand, you have an instinctive nature that leads you to be strong and have intense material desires, and on the other hand, you have a higher psychic authority, the superego or human ideal, that inspires you with a precise awareness of your purpose and dignity as a human being among your fellows. The distinctiveness, if not the opposition, between these two tendencies is likely to trouble your 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.

Barry McKenna yearned for a purpose in life, even faraway or abstract.

Barry McKenna needs others to fulfill himself and accomplish his ambitions.

At the time of your birth, your rising sign was located in Aquarius (the Water Bearer), while the sun was passing through the sign of Sagittarius (the Archer). A summary of the various clues mentioned above provide your personality profile.

You are impulsive and dynamic, always looking for new adventures and opportunities to right the world’s wrongs. You are free and independent, dreaming of faraway adventures and discoveries. However, you may find that other people do not always share your enthusiasm or interest in your projects, and you may feel misunderstood. Your fields of expression should be moral, so political philosophy, applied psychology, sociology, teaching, etc. would be great fits.

Born on the third day after the full moon rose, you are said to be a “lunar type.” This “solilunar” configuration gives you a character with an objective, rational, and lucid nature. However, since the moon is opposite the sun at the time of the full moon, your objective tendencies are balanced by a more idealistic penchant. Because the forces pull you in two different directions – one toward dreams, the other toward reality – you may be aware of some inner contradictions which are causing practical and social difficulties for you. At times, you are too demanding of yourself or others, comparing them to an ideal, whereas at others, you are too nonchalant and indulgent about life. You vacillate between two poles. One is elitist; the other is more earthy and perhaps vulgar at times. The result is a multifaceted self. Generally speaking, your monthly energy flow is strongest at the time of the full moon. You would be wise to schedule intensive work phases at that time, as well as ambitious and demanding projects.

This relationship could yield a high degree of psychological compatibility and powerful mutual attraction. The physical and psychological reality of Barry McKenna’s personality will exert a magnetic pull over the sensitivity, receptivity, tenderness, and other key qualities of his partner.

Barry McKenna’s moon is located at 21° CANCER. His ideal match is a partner with the sun at 15/27° CANCER or CAPRICORN.

Barry McKenna would be particularly well-matched to someone who mirrors his underlying psychic and unconscious aspirations. The secret ideal he cherishes of the perfect partner would be aroused; it would harmonize beautifully with his ideal imaginary lover. This great psychic compatibility is the result of a harmonious relationship between the Moon of the masculine chart and the sun of the feminine one. It is propitious to a rich flow of energies between the most hidden and secret parts of both people. They are linked by an unconscious emotional bond.

Barry McKenna’s Venus is located at 12° CAPRICORN. His ideal match is a partner with Mars at 6/18° CAPRICORN or CANCER.

This type of partner would complement you perfectly in emotional and sentimental terms. This person would reflect and fulfill your ideal of sensuality to the greatest degree. Moreover, your ideal partner would resonate lastingly with your own psychic projections of your ideal. This positive relationship between the unconscious sexual yearnings of both partners would be likely to yield sensual relations of a tantalizingly mysterious and secret nature.

You are highly sensitive and try to protect yourself by adopting a somewhat reserved and distant attitude. Cautious and a bit wary about committing yourself to an amorous relationship, you cannot relax your inhibitions unless you feel completely safe. Once you’re in love, you are both passionate and cold, demanding and devoted, possessive but reasonable. You do not readily express your affections in public and may have a fairly practical, down-to-earth attitude toward the relationship. You would be well-matched with such a partner who is serious and in control of themselves. Because this person, too, is wary of being disappointed, they will not engage in an intimate relationship without clear knowledge that their budding feelings are reciprocated. However, once they make their mind up, they will be extremely faithful, affectionate, and tender.

Barry McKenna’s planet Mars is located at 9 degrees Scorpio. His ideal match is a partner with Venus at 3 degrees Scorpio or Taurus.
