Consciousness and The Ideal of Self:

King Von seems passive and more or less resigned to his fate, including his insecurity. Actually, King Von is fairly introverted and withdrawn, trying to make sense out of his inner confusion and fathom his inner depths.

King Von has a paternal complex and, as a result, some trouble finding his identity. Perhaps his father or a father figure was absent physically or emotionally during his childhood, which deprived him of the patterns or models which are usually helpful in structuring a personality. Because he might have lacked a particular sense of security which could be provided by a paternal presence, as well as the examples of behavior to follow in confronting the difficulties inherent in every life, he was forced to protect himself against negative influences and find his own system in order to grow and feel secure.

Although this system was quite useful to him as a child, it has now settled in to such a degree that it interferes with his evolution. Psychological defense mechanisms and crutches which were once useful now encumber his mind or inhibit his developmental efforts. As a result, in certain situations, it is difficult for him to assert himself, and he tends to remain an awkward or passive observer. Because his authoritarian urges are mainly directed at himself rather than others, he sometimes feels guilty about his behavior. He judges himself severely, and sometimes punishes himself by setting difficult tasks for himself. Gradually, he should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.

King Von has an inalienable awareness of the void and the vanity of existence. King Von is sometimes disoriented and deconstructed by an unknowable, unconscious force and tend to ignore or disparage the superficial pleasures and pains of daily life, preferring to dive into the depths of human experience as deeply as their intellectual, emotional, and spiritual capacities permit. Grappling with their “fundamental nature,” with the deepest and most primitive part of themselves, King Von is sometimes aghast at the discovery of the sheer power of the life instinct and feels an imperious need to cope with it.

This special consciousness King Von has been endowed with is somewhat beyond the bounds of conventional schools of human understanding and thought and may be a source of identity problems for King Von at the outset. It is not easy for King Von to recognize themselves in any social or narcissistic models or identify with any existing roles or attitudes, so King Von sometimes finds themselves forced to construct and assert their own identity on a basis which may impress others with its intensity, if not its eccentricity.

Adaptation and Sensitivity:

Because King Von is fond of method and order, King Von usually prefers to do things according to a pre-established plan. King Von’s behavior mirrors this tendency. King Von will adopt relatively strict models elaborated on the basis of logical or moral reasons. King Von does not readily express King Von’s personal feelings or emotions and may sometimes strike others as a rigid person. However, King Von’s conscientiousness and application make King Von thrive in a work environment, and King Von tends to treat social engagements and activities as a form of duty. King Von’s natural taste for clarity, detail, and technique would make King Von successful as a scientific researcher or high-tech designer.

King Von has a sensitive personality. He may jump to conclusions, which could disrupt relationships, as well as career plans. He is subject to cyclical energy flows and goes from periods of feverish activity to periods of withdrawal and introspection. The aggressive element in his behavior may be explained by emotional problems he may have experienced in infancy: his mother, or a mother figure, may have had an energetic and volatile personality.

Because King Von discovered his individuality early in life, he quickly developed an original and independent identity. His first taste of liberty may have led him to challenge the education and values he received from family and class tradition, and he was able to forge a strong, original personality and philosophy. His relationships are usually free of conflict, because he is able to reconcile his need for independence with his desire for affection. However, his partners should be open and lively people, able to keep pace with him in his rapid evolution. He has an inspired and extremely lively wit and a brisk interest in the future, technological progress, and new lifestyles. He would be especially successful in communications-related careers like journalism, film, TV, radio, and advertising. Although he is an individualist, he has a powerful desire to contribute to the evolution of society and better its development.

Due to King Von’s extreme sensitivity and irrepressible imagination, he sometimes has trouble distinguishing dreams from reality. Although his imagination can be an abundant source of inspiration for creative or spiritual evolution, it tends to be less helpful and positive in matters that concern earning a decent living out in the real world. In a relationship, King Von is extremely romantic and does not always see others the way they really are. He has elegant tastes and art and beauty are one of his chief pleasures in life.

Love and Sensuality:

King Von tries to express his affections in the most graceful and harmonious way possible. Indeed, King Von has an innate sense of harmony and strives for a love relationship characterized by balance and perfection. King Von tends to idealize both his partner and the institution of marriage. Any disillusionment King Von encounters in the pursuit of his ideal may be experienced as a frustration. King Von does not always ply his powers of seduction skillfully.

King Von’s birth chart indicates an emotional function which is usually expressed carefully and reasonably. Distrustful of his emotional urges and somewhat wary of his feelings, he tries to rid himself of all partiality and try to get some perspective and distance before making an emotional commitment.

King Von is pragmatic and realistic as well as ambitious and wants to get ahead in the world. His partnership could be a means of doing so. Although he has many virtues and carefully attends to his duties, he has an unfortunate tendency to doubt in himself in any matter related to his emotions. It would be regrettable if, after a few failures, he sacrificed his emotional fulfillment on the altar of his ambition and need for normalcy.

King Von’s gracious smile and flirtatious charm are the arts which endear him to many. He is a delightful companion who adapts perfectly to any change, and he is able to intuit the desires of the person who may become his spouse. Peace and harmony should rule over every aspect of his union: artistic interests, worldly successes, dates and outings, etc.

Mental and Intellect:

Powerfully ruled by King Von’s determination and vital needs, his intellectual abilities come to the forefront when his purpose is to communicate his ideal and plot his action or strategy. He can be both logical and astute and have gifts for theorizing but may sometimes lack perspective.
