Brian d’Arcy James

Your personality is marked by your nostalgic yearning for your roots – a “paradise lost” which is also a source of energy and vitality. Your power is linked to memory. You inhabit a present which draws sustenance from the past, from continuity and timelessness. The power of memory can either be dynamic or static. The consciousness of an inaccessible past can either immobilize you in melancholy and nostalgia, or shine as an ideal which motivates you to recreate a new harmony. Your attitude and approach to the past are of key importance. If you think of it as a refuge, your obsession with it may be such that your progress is impeded. If, on the contrary, you think of it as a starting point or launching pad for your comprehension of the human condition, you will integrate it into your self-realization process. You possess a potential for great maturation and wisdom. You are relatively slow-moving and may feel protected from the outer world by an armor of education, family surroundings (your most cherished environment), and social status. For this reason, you tend to limit the scope of your activities to a single well-defined sphere, and, within the boundaries you have established, release the entire spectrum of your rich and varied emotional expression. Sometimes you may feel overwhelmed by the prospect of situations which will introduce you to unfamiliar factors and elements; you see them as intrusions. Before you judge an event, a person, or a thing, you attempt to absorb it into your private universe. Of a fairly subjective and introverted turn of mind, you define everything in terms of the sensation it arouses in you as your consciousness embraces it. This predominance of sensation gives your extreme sensory finesse. Your perceptions are intense, keen, penetrating right to the heart of people and things. Your imagination, which is a function of your perceptions, is also lively, colorful, and prolific. Because you are sometimes self-centered, attentive to and protective of your inner self, you may tend to withdraw into your shell when you encounter aggression from the outer world. As a result, you may sometimes become distant and secretive. Your tendency to be rather short-tempered and easily offended, a classic flaw, is also the consequence of your need for protection and security. Despite your sensitivity, and your ability to be genuinely virtuous, you are not always gentle. Your outbreaks of hostility are all the more wounding because of their rarity. However, more than aggressiveness, your stubbornness, slow

At the time of your birth, your rising sign was located in Virgo (the Virgin), while the sun was passing through the sign of Cancer (the Crab).

Very shy due to your sensitivity and impressionability, you may sometimes feel paralyzed by your emotions and feelings. You are somewhat nervous about the future and might take refuge from this sense of foreboding in a nostalgia for the past. What you fear is disappointment. Note that these inhibitions could slow your personal development. Although you have many skills and a great deal of potential, you need encouragement and support in order to take full advantage of your qualities, which can be defined as a gift for analysis and criticism, and a striving for perfectionism.

Born shortly after the new moon, you are said to have a “soli-lunar” personality configuration, which gives you a subjective character, somewhat impulsive and sometimes emotive. Generally, you don’t see the world in objective terms; instead, you base your attitude on the feelings various situations arouse inside you. Likewise, in human relationships, you tend to project your imaginary reality onto others instead of seeing them for what they are. As a result, your judgements and reasoning are sometimes deprived of perspective. You may want to make an effort to refrain from overinterpreting other people’s actions, because, being the product of your imagination in most cases, your interpretations are mistaken. If you apply yourself to listening more openly, people may reveal their deeper motivations. You’ll be happier and more effective as a result.
