Niko Valdes seeks to extend Niko Valdes’ 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 Niko Valdes’ primary resources in life, although they are also potential pitfalls. Niko Valdes’ eloquence, wit, and verve, Niko Valdes’ mastery of language, unquestionably give Niko Valdes’ 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 Niko Valdes to find an outlet for Niko Valdes’ flow of verbal expression, Niko Valdes must explain, communicate, and speak. If it is dammed up, Niko Valdes will undoubtedly suffer. Niko Valdes’ flow of words is the expression of Niko Valdes’ vital energy, the proof that Niko Valdes are alive and well. If Niko Valdes are forced to be silent, Niko Valdes would be cut off from the bonds that hold Niko Valdes 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, Niko Valdes are naturally gregarious and sociable.

Niko Valdes make friends quickly and easily. Niko Valdes’ contacts and networks are important to Niko Valdes, because they enable Niko Valdes to evolve. They are a source of self-fulfillment and identification. Any form of play is also important to Niko Valdes, and only severe depression will deprive Niko Valdes of Niko Valdes’ playfulness. Niko Valdes sometimes amuse Niko Valdes’ self by acting out a variety of roles on the stage of life, just for the fun of it. Niko Valdes’ animation and wit give Niko Valdes’ a talent for improvisation and adaptation. However, adaptability is a two-bladed sword. Niko Valdes are liable to find Niko Valdes’ self in a superficial bind, having jettisoned certain important ideas in order to move about more freely. Niko Valdes are also sensitive, but Niko Valdes’ emotions and feelings are sometimes subject to the scrutiny and censorship of Niko Valdes’ intellect. Thus, Niko Valdes cannot free Niko Valdes’ self to the strength of great passions and energies without idealizing them to a certain degree and giving them intellectual resonance. Wary of Niko Valdes’ irrational instincts and urges, Niko Valdes tend to control or repress them.

But Niko Valdes will do well to learn that the intellect is not omnipotent, especially where instinct is concerned. Inhabiting a complex inner world, Niko Valdes sometimes feel vulnerable, due to Niko Valdes’ emotionalism and sensitivity to the aggressions of the outer world. Because Niko Valdes rely first and foremost on Niko Valdes’ adaptability and agility to wriggle out of trouble, Niko Valdes may, on certain occasions, make rather dubious compromises with Niko Valdes’ self – all the more likely if Niko Valdes’ moral fiber is made of wax, as is often the case, instead of steel. The weaknesses Niko Valdes must overcome are instability, wishy-washiness, a lack of determination and coherence in Niko Valdes’ thought.

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