You are an intense and emotional being, which leads you to feel sensation, emotion, and feeling more than most people. As a result, you have developed a strong sense of your individuality and uniqueness. You sometimes feel “different” – set apart from others. In order to justify this idea of yourself, you often try to behave differently in order to impress people, and the result is usually rather grandiose and exaggerated. This self-perpetuating bind is because your impressive deeds usually earn you recognition, and this reinforces your self-assurance and your certainty that you are above the rest. You sometimes make an attempt to act emotionally in order to show off, but you also have a deep-seated fear of being absorbed or enslaved by society. The good side of this unconscious anxiety is that it drives you to create and to counteract the effects of time and the masses on your ego. By creating something, you can make your own individual mark on the world; you can organize it to reflect your own image, instead of allowing yourself to be submerged by it. The preceding comments about creating the world in your own image are strong indications that you seek to identify with your superego. The difference between your ideal of yourself and the individual you know yourself to be in reality, measured in terms of social recognition or the recognition of your creations (children, works of art, etc.), will determine your state of mind. It is therefore important for you to make these images match to a certain extent, to reduce the gap as much as possible. The psychological dynamic described earlier explains many of the pluses and minuses in your personality. Your sense of dignity and self-assurance may border on vanity; your strong instinct and ambition combined with your somewhat exaggerated individualism incline you to be self-focused. You may be proud, but you are also courageous, determined, and generous. You have the skills of an educator or an artist; moreover, you are mysteriously lucky.

Due to the influence of Libra rising, Bella Talero treasures harmony and will passionately endeavor to achieve it, both in her social life (in her relationships with others) and in her private life (in terms of art, grace, and physical beauty). As a result, her intimate ties (to a partner, for example) will be of primordial interest to her, and she would feel unfulfilled if this aspect of her life were not successful. She is happiest when she has an outlet for her sense of grace and beauty. Social and sociable, Bella commits herself to her relationships with total devotion and will expend a great deal of energy to keep the vessel on an even keel and mend wounded feelings. An inspired diplomat with a passion for truth, justice, and liberality, Bella has a genuine talent for reconciliation and negotiation! Because she is sentimental, Bella likes to make people happy and needs to be loved and cared for in return.

Bella thrives on relating to other people. She cannot live without love!

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

At the time of your birth, your rising sign was located in Libra (the Scales), while the sun was passing through the sign of Leo (the Lion). A summary of the various clues mentioned above provide your personality profile. The following key words capture the essence of your character and indicate certain contradictions which may be sources of tension:

Sociability – Adaptability – Determination – Emotion – Pride and self-assurance – Tolerance – Superiority – Peaceful disposition – Brilliance – Sense of harmony – Generosity – Worldliness – Optimism.

Because you have been endowed with great esthetic sensitivity, you need and love beauty, order, and harmony. Your extreme sociability and difficulty bearing discord are likely to cost you some of your independence, if you are not careful. However, you have remarkable organizational and management skills. Your optimism and enthusiasm, tactfulness, and sincere concern for others make you a natural leader.

Born on the three days prior to the new moon’s appearance, you have a spiritualistic character closely attached to generous humanitarian ideals. You are sometimes sorely tried to limit yourself to the narrow scope of individual ambition, but you aim for a humanitarian ideal which would include the outcasts and the unfortunate. You fervently hope the meek will inherit the earth. To bring about this ideal, you are likely to seize every resource placed at your disposal: physical effort, money (if you have it), speech, your writings, and your poetic or artistic talents. However, you should be wary of your unconscious guilt feelings. Actually, there is no reason for you to devote yourself to your mission entirely; a simple daily effort should suffice to express your philosophy and free your conscience. Usually, the three days preceding the new moon will be time in the monthly lunar cycle most favorable to your activities and your general energy level.
