Michael Darby

Your fiery, emotional nature has led to a deep sense of your individuality and uniqueness. You sometimes feel “different” – set apart from others. In order to justify this idea of yourself, you attempt to behave differently, to impress the crowd. This causes you to behave in an exaggerated and grandiose manner. It’s a self-perpetuating bind, because your impressive deeds usually earn recognition for you, and reinforce your self-assurance. However, at the basis of your conduct is a feeling of social anxiety, which is probably unconscious or unconfessed. You may fear being absorbed or enslaved by society. The positive side of this unconscious anxiety is that it drives you to create, to counteract the deeply felt effects of time and the masses on your ego. By creating something, you can make your own individual mark on the world. You can organize it to reflect your own image, instead of allowing yourself to be submerged by it. The preceding comments about creating the world in your own image are strong indications that you seek to identify with your superego. The difference between your ideal of yourself and the individual you know yourself to be in truth, measured in terms of your social recognition or the recognition of your creations (children, works of art, etc.), will determine your state of mind. It is therefore important for you to make these images match to a certain extent, to reduce the gap as much as possible. The psychological dynamic described earlier explains many of the pluses and minuses in your personality. Your dignity and self-assurance may border on vanity; your strong instinct and ambition combined with your somewhat exaggerated individualism incline you to be self-focused. You may be proud, but you are also courageous, determined, and generous. You have the skills of an educator or an artist; moreover, you are mysteriously lucky.

Due to the influence of Scorpio rising, Michael Darby has a powerful, forthright nature with a penchant for possessiveness, be it material, mental, or spiritual. His personality is predisposed to being “slow to gel,” and he may be reluctant to assert himself; the inner image he has of himself may still be vague and sketchy. An idealist, he seeks something within himself that will expand his horizons and give him the consciousness of a more universal truth. His mind generally proceeds from a fairly skeptical, realistic viewpoint, but he has phases of indecision, haziness, and suggestibility. First and foremost, he is curious about and critical of different ideas. His personality also gives him the potential to be a gifted investigator and diagnostician in any field; he has a talent for detecting and finding hidden facts about things and people. He is flexible and intuitive, adaptable and ingenious. He’ll do well to learn to assert himself with confidence in order to take full advantage of all his qualities.

Michael Darby finds his work rewarding. Daily life and routine activities are excellent sources of self-fulfillment for him.

Michael Darby finds fulfillment in friendships and membership in groups.

Your propensity for self focus hides weak areas you would do well to explore within yourself. You hold the promise of great success, as long as you simplify and soften your ideals, ridding them of any selfish motivations.

Born in the seven to ten days after the full moon rose, Michael Darby is of the “last quarter” lunar type. As a result, his personality is fairly independent and self-sufficient. His ideas are original and often bold, but, to his dismay, do not often garner a majority of followers. His sense of humor is his best communications tool, but he often switches to a more severe tone which breaks his charm over his audience, and his methods do not always please the masses. His lack of flexibility hinders his strategies and projects, and he would gain by developing his sense of diplomacy and tact. Although he is not unduly attached to success, because he is so used to being ahead of his time, his failures take a psychological toll on him. Because each setback wears him down a little more, he should try to avoid further disappointments by conforming to contemporary reality a little more closely.
