An extroverted intuitive, you are open to the reality of the world, objects, and others. You have a special duality to your mind, which is made up of equal parts of intellectual resources and sensitivity, giving you great intuition and humanism. As a function of this latter, you have a great sense of your fellow human and the oracular art of divining people’s unconscious wishes and motivations – in fact, your advice is often sought. In material terms, it gives you a talent for locating lost objects and a spirit of discovery and invention. Overall, you welcome the signs arriving from the outer world in a positive and liberal way and even incite them to promise more than they can provide. However, when something does not satisfy you, you have the ability to cheer yourself up rapidly and are quick to discover whatever positive aspects it may present. This involves a process of readaptation which requires formidable ego transformations, and they are the challenge for you. It is up to you to renew yourself, to behave in such a way as to drain your environment of fearsome or threatening aspects. You are usually perceived as an idealist. Deep within yourself, you sense the presence of a “new life.” It is the crucible of your ideal and all your hopes. The “new life” may assume the garb of various philosophies of liberation; whatever they may be, they all endeavor to revitalize alienated modern people, oppressed and downtrodden by Western civilization. However, in your striving to free yourself and your fellow humans from a social contract based on the power of sheer lucre and corrupt lobbies, you display a singular inclination to depend upon the very social forces you intends to topple. The reason for this is that, because you are quite sociable, the only thing you instinctively grasp profoundly is social action and organization. Your perception of your own personality is vague or even negative. In fact, your grandiose personal gestures are motivated by a need to hide your unavowed feelings of inferiority and, at times, your fear of strong personalities. But you are above all an idealist. Hope is the prime mover of your spirit, and you are continually traveling along the axis of the hope/despair polarity. As you apply yourself to ignoring whatever is impervious to your aspirations, you should acquire some certainty of what is still possible – for you and the world. In fact, in relation to your ideal, you behave realistically, although others are unable to perceive your realism because you expressed yourself in such

Born in the seven to ten days after the full moon rose, Dave Benton is of the “last quarter” lunar type. As a result, Dave’s personality is fairly independent and self-sufficient. Dave’s ideas are original and often bold, but, to Dave’s dismay, do not often garner a majority of followers. Dave’s sense of humor is his best communications tool, but Dave often switches to a more severe tone which breaks his charm over his audience, and Dave’s methods do not always please the masses.
