Ryan Lin has a complex personality. He is astir with contradictory impulses and desires, some of them imperious. Although his rational mind is highly developed and seems to be the source of motivation for his behavior, the most significant realm of his psychology is his subconscious. Therein, a conflict between understanding and feeling is raging, between the psychological functions of thought and sensation (C.G. Jung’s terms). Until this conflict subsides, he might feel a sensation of emptiness. He is troubled by and unable to explain this feeling, which leads him to adopt an attitude of doubt and skepticism. This conflict, and its various ramifications, are the main obstacle to his individuation. His task consists of becoming the master of the energies of his subconscious, and developing his consciousness in terms of the hidden and invisible. His evolution will occur through a series of metamorphoses and rebirths. However, at certain points in his life, despite his caution and clear thinking, he finds himself in situations he neither desired nor planned, as a result of explosions and eruptions of the elements fermenting in his psyche. He always survives the worst physical, emotional, or intellectual tests, however, fairly unscathed, because of his ability to be reborn and start afresh.

Ryan Lin has a personality which is relatively aloof and introspective. In fact, he is not inclined to submit to anyone’s influence, and leads the independent life of the individualist. Sometimes skeptical (if not pessimistic) and resigned, he is still shrewd and objective in his insights and judgments. He has a fairly severe, “no-frills” vision of life, and only the pure, bare essence really matters to him. His personal stability tends to be founded on enduring values – philosophical or scientific facts in relation to spiritual values. Sometimes he seems detached and weary, or disillusioned, and he does not appreciate the social whirl. He does not readily express his feelings and emotions, but he feels a need to protect and restrain an inner sensitivity and emotionality. His sense of time, a true instinct, is very important. It rules and coordinates all of his activities.

Ryan Lin is a pleasure lover and will find self-fulfillment in creative activities.

Ryan Lin has a good ego which is available to others. He invests all his energy in his relationships and partnerships.

Ryan Lin has a good balance between his need for movement and his tendency to be sedentary. He is just as likely to adapt to situations which require outbursts of initiative as to those which demand patience and perseverance.

Ryan Lin was born on the third day after the rising of the new moon. This “soli-lunar” configuration gives him a subjective character, somewhat impulsive and sometimes emotive. Generally, he does not see the world in objective terms; instead, he bases his attitude on the feelings various situations arouse inside him. Likewise, in human relationships, he tends to project his imaginary reality onto others instead of seeing them for what they are. As a result, his judgements and reasoning are sometimes deprived of perspective. He may want to make an effort to refrain from overinterpreting other people’s actions, because, being the product of his imagination in most cases, his interpretations are mistaken. If he applies himself to listening more openly, people may reveal their deeper motivations. He’ll be happier and more effective as a result.
