You are a personality oriented towards the mind. You understand and relate to the world around you via the medium of thought and intellect. You are very good at memorizing things, analyzing things, and verbalizing your mental imagery. You seek to extend your personality by mental outreach to a multitude of new ideas and factors, becoming acquainted with an ever-increasing variety of facets of human nature. This makes language and symbolic expression your primary resources in life, although they are also potential pitfalls. Your eloquence, wit, and verve, your mastery of language, unquestionably give you 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 you to find an outlet for your flow of verbal expression, you must explain, communicate, and speak.

You sometimes amuse yourself by acting out a variety of roles on the stage of life, just for the fun of it. Your animation and wit give you a talent for improvisation and adaptation. However, adaptability is a two-bladed sword. You are liable to find yourself in a superficial bind, having jettisoned certain important ideas in order to move about more freely. You are also sensitive, but your emotions and feelings are sometimes subject to the scrutiny and censorship of your intellect. Thus, you cannot free yourself to the strength of great passions and energies without idealizing them to a certain degree and giving them intellectual resonance. Wary of your irrational instincts and urges, you tend to control or repress them. But you will do well to learn that the intellect is not omnipotent, especially where instinct is concerned.

Indeed, you are so meticulous that you often “cannot see the forest for the trees” and may fret and worry unnecessarily over tiny details. You can even be cerebral about your emotions, and you might hesitate to give them free expression.

You have a strong desire for self-improvement and transformation. Characteristically, you think some sort of conscious action could result in change.

The latter part of your life should be even happier and more fulfilling.
