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

Barton Cowperthwaite thrives in the peace and security of the nest. His spouse and family will be an important part of his life.
