You are a practical person who is not easily drawn into utopian ideals or mirages. When all systems are go, your inner strength and stamina will drive you straight to the heart of the material world with no detours or mistakes. You then become the quintessential creator and producer. You create out of love for the phenomenon of creation on every level. Although your innate sense of matter, your earthiness, may sometimes confine you to the material plane, it also endows you with the power to give substance to your intuitions. Your material possessions embody your spirit. You are a person of conviction. You believe in your action; you have faith in your approach. Striding purposefully ahead, you go even farther, more effectively. You are aware you have a job to carry out; you know your duty is to create and construct. As a result, it is important for you to be deeply implicated in your career and to feel as though you are really accomplishing a goal that is important to you.

Your initial problem is to find the cause you will make your purpose in life, because if you were to err, if you wandered into the trap of a bad cause fraught with risk, you would suffer a terrible setback. Therefore, the essential value which will define your life and destiny is the fruit of a long ripening process, a slow, gradual deliberation, the opposite of an impulse. If your purpose in life were to elude you, you would be tempted by indulgence and apathy. Your taste for sensual pleasures like good food and drink might then take over, depriving you of maturity and fulfillment, and, ultimately, your vital potency. But, don’t worry, this is pure conjecture!

Born seven to ten days after the rising of the new moon, you are said to be a “first quarter” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration means that your character is strong-willed and sometimes proud, always determined to buck convention and innovate. Monotony is unbearable to you, and you chafe under the yoke of routine. As a result, you often run into trouble with authority figures. When overwhelmed by your conscience, you rave about how destructive it is to long for the past, how ridiculous it is to be old-fashioned, and how obsolete the old values are. Generally speaking, your monthly energy flow peaks about seven to ten-and-a-half days after the full moon. You would be wise to schedule intensive work phases at that time, as well as ambitious and demanding projects. At that time, your initiatives will be most successful, especially if you are trying to create something new, original, and cutting-edge!
