Melanie Martinez is a practical mover-doer. Their personality has no room for utopian ideals or mirages. When all systems are go, their inner strength and stamina will drive them straight to the heart of the material world with no detours or mistakes. They then become the quintessential creator and producer. They create out of love for the phenomenon of creation on every level. Although their innate sense of matter, their earthiness, may sometimes confine them to the material plane, it also endows them with the power to give substance to their intuitions. Their material possessions embody their spirit. They are a person of conviction. They believe in their action; they have faith in their approach. Striding purposefully ahead, they go even farther, more effectively. They are aware they have a job to carry out; they know their duty is to create and construct.

As a result, it is important for them to be deeply implicated in their career and to feel as though they are really accomplishing a goal that is important to them. They are coherent and pragmatic, and their life and mind are carefully organized. Improvisation is not their forte; on the contrary, they tend to plan out their work in advance, stick to the plan obstinately, and pace themselves carefully. This tendency may strike others as being somewhat plodding and slow.

But the opinion of others means little to them; they judge themselves on the basis of the fruit of their labor. Their accomplishments arouse their pride and possessiveness, since they view them as evidence of their worth. However, the work ethic so prevalent in our society is deeply ingrained in them. Merely by slogging on with their duty, they achieve such personal rewards and satisfactions as the knowledge that their potency never flickers; their inner virility and ability to follow through are steady, sure, and irresistible. The only drawback is that their earthiness and stubbornness may confine their interests to somewhat low horizons. Their capacity for work is related to a capacity for self-devotion. They are able to give their entire being to a great cause, to devote themselves body and soul, with all the might and conscientiousness they possess, if they believe the goal to be their ultimate purpose. Their initial problem is to find the cause they will make their purpose in life, because if they were to err, if they wandered into the trap of a bad cause fraught with risk, they would suffer a terrible setback.

Therefore, the essential value which will define their life and destiny is the fruit of a long ripening process, a slow, gradual deliberation, the opposite of an impulse. If their purpose in life were to elude them, they would be tempted by indulgence and apathy. Their taste for sensual pleasures like good food and drink might then take over, depriving them of maturity and fulfillment, and, ultimately, their vital potency. But, don’t worry, this is pure conjecture!

Melanie Martinez is dynamic. She needs to attract admiration and release her excess energy.

Melanie Martinez has a sense of selfless duty and devotion. Work is one of the most important aspects of life for her.

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

Sociability – Adaptability – Opposition to progress – Emotion – Compassion – Tolerance – Perseverance – Peaceful disposition – Pragmatism – Sense of harmony – Productivity – Worldliness – Sensuality.

She is tolerant and amiable, reserved, and enjoys group activities of every kind. Her emotions usually dominate her reason. Sensual and beauty-loving, she revels in the physical delights life offers, but she also displays a certain nonchalance. As a result, she has a taste for comfort and material ease, but will never be really materialistic.

She is a methodical and patient worker, attentive and well-organized. If solicited correctly, she would be able to assume considerable responsibility and organize major projects smoothly and efficiently.

Her potential for sensual enjoyment combines with her sense of harmony to give her a smooth, luxurious approach to people and things. She is sensitive to substances and textures, shapes and volumes, colors and moods. This understanding of beauty and nearly musical intuition could easily become a rewarding creative activity in composition or construction.

Born in the three days prior to the new moon’s appearance, Melanie Martinez is said to be of the “balsamic moon” type. This soli-lunar configuration gives her a spiritualistic character closely attached to generous humanitarian ideals. She is sometimes sorely tried to limit herself to the narrow scope of individual ambition.

Indeed, she aims for a humanitarian ideal which would include the outcasts and the unfortunate. She fervently hopes the meek will inherit the earth. To bring about this ideal, she is likely to seize every resource placed at her disposal: physical effort, money (if she has it), speech, her writings, and her poetic or artistic talents. However, she should be wary of her unconscious guilt feelings.

Actually, there is no reason for her to devote herself to her mission entirely; a simple daily effort should suffice to express her philosophy and free her conscience. Usually, the three days preceding the new moon will be time in the monthly lunar cycle most favorable to her activities and her general energy level.
