Alan Ashby possesses a powerful memory which can either immobilize him in melancholy and nostalgia or shine as an ideal which motivates him to recreate a new harmony. His approach to the past is important, as is his tendency to be relatively slow-moving and to feel protected by education, family surroundings, and social status. He possesses a potential for great maturation and wisdom, but is sometimes self-centered and quick to anger. His attachment to his family is deep, and the transition to adulthood and independence is crucial to his well-being.

Due to the influence of Virgo rising, your personality, analytical and critical, is ruled by reason. Your intellectual functions tend to predominate over your emotional or sentimental impulses. Your mind, which is questioning and skeptical, is naturally seeking to understand and to find a rational solution. You have great faith in rational positivism and strive to be pragmatic. You have a considerable potential for accomplishment. Although others generally appreciate your conscientious, scrupulous conduct, they might be critical of your meek behavior and tendency to overthink. Indeed, you are so meticulous that you often “cannot see the forest for the trees” and might fret and worry unnecessarily over tiny details. You can even be cerebral about your emotions, and you might hesitate to give them free expression. Actually, you could be burdened by a strong feeling of anxiety which causes you to counteract your instinctive urges. You might struggle with pessimism and a reluctance to trust others or yourself. You have a strong desire for self-improvement and transformation. Characteristically, you think some sort of conscious action could result in change. The key lies in learning to accept your emotions and subjectivity. It will be a challenge, but with the help of time and maturity, you are likely to succeed. The latter part of your life should be even happier and more fulfilling.

Alan Ashby is a pleasure lover and will find self-fulfillment in creative activities.
