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

Due to the influence of Virgo rising, Barbara Lee’s personality is ruled by reason. Her intellectual functions tend to predominate over her emotional or sentimental impulses. Her mind, which is analytical and critical, is naturally questioning and skeptical; she has great faith in rational positivism and strives to be pragmatic. She has a considerable potential for accomplishment. Although others generally appreciate her conscientious, scrupulous conduct, her devotion to others and realism, they might be critical of her meek behavior and tendency to overthink. Indeed, she is so meticulous that she often “cannot see the forest for the trees” and may fret and worry unnecessarily over tiny details. She can even be cerebral about her emotions, and she might hesitate to give them free expression. She has a strong desire for self-improvement and transformation. Characteristically, she proceeds to do so by taking some sort of conscious action which she thinks will promote change and self-transformation. Both her work and emotional commitments may be elements in this transformation. It will be a challenge to her, but if she is willing to overcome her tendency to deny her emotions, she will find life much more rewarding and less restrictive.

Barbara Lee is a pleasure lover and will find self-fulfillment in creative activities.

Born on the three and one-half days following the full moon, you are said to be a “full moon” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration gives you an objective, rational, and lucid character. However, since the moon is opposite the sun at the time of the full moon, your objective tendencies are balanced by a more idealistic penchant. Because the forces pull you in two different ways – one toward dreams, the other toward reality – you may be aware of some inner contradictions which are causing practical and social difficulties for you. At times, you are too demanding of yourself or others, comparing them to an ideal, whereas at others, you are too nonchalant and indulgent about life. You vacillate between two poles. One is elitist; the other is more earthy and perhaps vulgar at times. The result is a multifaceted self. Generally speaking, your monthly energy flow is strongest at the time of the full moon. You would be wise to schedule intensive work phases at that time, as well as ambitious and demanding projects.
