Aleena, you have a complex personality. You are stirred with contradictory impulses and desires, some of which are autocratic. Although your rational mind is highly developed and seems to be the source of motivation for your behavior, the most significant realm of your psychology is your subconscious. Therein, a conflict between understanding and feeling is raging, between the psychological functions of thought and sensation (C.G. Jung’s terms). Until this conflict subsides, you might feel a sensation of emptiness. You are troubled by and unable to explain this feeling, which leads you to adopt an attitude of doubt and skepticism. This conflict, and its various ramifications, are the main obstacle to your individuation. Your task consists of becoming the master of the energies of your subconscious, and developing your consciousness in terms of the hidden and invisible. Your evolution will occur through a series of metamorphoses and rebirths. However, at certain points in your life, despite your caution and clear thinking, you find yourself in situations you neither desired nor planned, as a result of explosions and eruptions of the elements fermenting in your psyche. You always survive the worst physical, emotional, or intellectual tests, however, fairly unscathed, because of your ability to be reborn and start afresh. As a partner, you might struggle to make compromises. You may appear frosty and distant at times, and you have a taste for challenging, provocative remarks. With yourself, as well as with others, you are sometimes excessive and complicated. In a discussion, you will express strong, honest opinions. In crisis situations, you wish for your efforts to be noticed. You are obsessed with the problem of death. You tend to believe it holds the secret of life – that death can be overcome. Sometimes your anxiety about death is expressed as a search for answers – how can one learn to live with death, how can one detach oneself from the past and its flesh-curdlingly morbid realities… Decay, immobility, ultimate delivery – these images, which are all symbolically associated with death, sometimes haunt you. Intellectually, you have powerfully developed intellectual faculties which yield the maximum effectiveness for your behavior. Deductive, analytical, prospective, you are at once a researcher, a detective, and a scientist. You are fairly introverted, and your discrimination tends to direct you toward the spheres of inner life. You are astute at drawing rational parallels between phenomena of different origins. Your love life will be subject to desire and passion. But since you are more

Due to the influence of Capricorn rising, Aleena may seem somewhat aloof and introspective. In fact, she is not inclined to submit to anyone’s influence, and leads the independent, solitary life of the individualist. Sometimes skeptical (if not pessimistic) and resigned, she is still shrewd and objective in her insights and judgments. She has a fairly severe, “no-frills” vision of life, and only the pure, bare essence really matters to her. Insecurities could inhibit her emotional and instinctive urges. She is proud of her near-stoic self-control. Her personal stability tends to be founded on enduring values – philosophical or hard scientific facts in relation to spiritual values. Sometimes she seems detached and weary or disillusioned, and she does not appreciate the social whirl. She does not readily express her feelings and emotions, but deep inside, she has great sensitivity. Her sense of time, a true instinct, is very important. It rules and coordinates all of her activities.

Aleena has high social aspirations. She believes that by gaining total control of her intellect, feelings, and instincts, she can achieve them.

Aleena has a somewhat secretive personality; she is tempted if not compelled to live a somewhat withdrawn life.

Aleena, the sun was in Capricorn, and your rising sign was located there. The various clues mentioned above indicate that you have a personality profile that is ambitious and passionate, but secretive and reserved. You have a stormy and sometimes difficult character. You are dominant, showing a certain edginess. You can be short-tempered and vulnerable. You are curious about the hidden aspects of things, and take pleasure in divulging people’s emotional secrets. You can expose the dysfunctional elements of something, resulting in a positive change. Your endurance and stubbornness give you the energy necessary for long-term projects. You alone can decide whether your goals will satisfy your own personal ambition, or a more vast and humanistic ideal.

Born in the seven to ten days after the full moon rose, Aleena is of the “last quarter” lunar type. As a result, her personality is fairly independent and self-sufficient. Her ideas are original and often bold, but, to her dismay, do not often garner a majority of followers. Her sense of humor is her best communications tool, but she often switches to a more severe tone which breaks her charm over her audience, and her methods do not always please the masses. Her lack of flexibility hinders her strategies and projects, and she would gain by developing her sense of diplomacy and tact. Although she is not unduly attached to success, because she is so used to being ahead of her time, her failures take a psychological toll on her. Because each setback wears her down a little more, she should try to avoid further disappointments by conforming to contemporary reality a little more closely.
