Brooke Thompson is a loner who is sometimes withdrawn and has a fairly chilly, nonchalant personality. Although she is introverted, she is extremely rational. She is wary at times of the outer world, her senses, and even her intellect, because they might all be sources of illusion. Her quest for identity with a spiritual whole gives her a voracious appetite for ideologies, structures, and theories. Readings which others would find abstract and intellectual impress her as reflections of important and lively realities. As a result, she has a penchant for reflection and philosophical study.

Her concentration gives her an undeniable gift for abstraction and conjecture. As a theoretician, she aims to discover what is essential and universal. Indeed, she seeks to go beyond what is relative, contingent upon circumstances, or inadequate, to reach the absolute truth she fervently desires. Her budding intuition is extremely receptive to the sacred or holy. As a result, the ideal or cause she espouses will be related to the concept of universality or totality. Since her lifetime adventure is based in part on this absolute truth, it is important for her to make an effort to define its nature. What sort of universality are you striving for; what spiritual Everest (in yourself or outwardly) are you trying to scale? In fact, you tend to like mountain climbing, because of the effort it requires. It’s a great joy for you. Alone at the peak, you can contemplate and understand everything. In pursuit of this absolute center (positive or negative) which animates you, you are shrewd and persistent. Stamina and endurance are resources of which you are quite confident. Your existence and organism are arranged to optimize them; others may consider you slow, but you are really just playing it safe, because, unconsciously, you know time is on your side. When you take an initiative, it is after careful forethought and preparation. Your great composure, ability to resist and overcome obstacles and wickedness, and your foresight give you a great potential to accomplish total self-control. However, you must beware of one pitfall: excess. You tend to be a bit too rigid and intolerant; in intellectual

Born in the three days after the rising of the new moon, you are said to be a “new moon” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration gives you a subjective character, somewhat impulsive and sometimes emotive. Generally, you do not see the world in objective terms; instead, you base your attitude on the feelings various situations arouse inside you. Likewise, in human relationships, you tend to project your imaginary reality onto others instead of seeing them for what they are. As a result, your judgements and reasoning are sometimes deprived of perspective. You may want to make an effort to refrain from overinterpreting other people’s actions, because, being the product of your imagination in most cases, your interpretations are mistaken. If you apply yourself to listening more openly, people may reveal their deeper motivations. You’ll be happier and more effective as a result.
