You are a complex person with contradictory impulses and desires. Your rational mind is highly developed, but the most significant realm of your psychology is your subconscious. Therein, a conflict between understanding and feeling is raging, between the psychological functions of thought and sensation. Until this conflict subsides, you might feel a sensation of emptiness. You are troubled by and unable to explain this feeling, which leads you to adopt an attitude of doubt and skepticism. This conflict, and its various ramifications, are the main obstacle to your individuation. Your task consists of becoming the master of the energies of your subconscious, and developing your consciousness in terms of the hidden and invisible. Your evolution will occur through a series of metamorphoses and rebirths. However, at certain points in your life, despite your caution and clear thinking, you find yourself in situations you neither desired nor planned, as a result of explosions and eruptions of the elements fermenting in your psyche. You always survive the worst physical, emotional, or intellectual tests, however, fairly unscathed, because of your ability to be reborn and start afresh. As a partner, you might struggle to make compromises. You may appear frosty and distant at times, and you have a taste for challenging, provocative remarks. With yourself, as well as with others, you are sometimes excessive and complicated. In a discussion, you will express strong, honest opinions. In crisis situations, you wish for your efforts to be noticed. You are obsessed with the problem of death. You tend to believe it holds the secret of life – that death can be overcome. Sometimes your anxiety about death is expressed as a search for answers – how can one learn to live with death, how can one detach oneself from the past and its flesh-curdlingly morbid realities.

Intellectually, you have powerfully developed intellectual faculties which yield the maximum effectiveness for your behavior. Deductive, analytical, prospective, you are at once a researcher, a detective, and a scientist. You are fairly introverted, and your discrimination tends to direct you toward the spheres of inner life. You are astute at drawing rational parallels between phenomena of different origins. Your love life will be subject to desire and passion. But since you are more aroused by ideas and fantasies, you may experience lulls in intensity. When you yield to your penchant for emotional upheaval and your desire for coercion and pleasure, you may find yourself sailing into the teeth of a hurricane-force gale.

Aakriti Sharma thrives on relating to other people. She cannot live without love!

Aakriti Sharma tends to live in an imaginary world; the distant and abstract sometimes interests her more than what is right at hand and realistic.

You were born in the sign of Capricorn, the Goat. At the time of your birth, the sun was passing through the sign of Scorpio, the Scorpion. This gave you the personality profile of someone who is ambitious and passionate, but secretive and reserved. You have a stormy and sometimes difficult character. You dominate others, and may show a certain edginess, repressing the expression of your sensitivity. But you are also short-tempered and vulnerable, and react with causticity when you feel your ego is threatened. You have a keen and penetrating intelligence, and a lucidity that makes you curious about the hidden aspects of things. You take pleasure in divulging people’s emotional secrets, but on another level you can expose the dysfunctional elements of something, resulting in a positive change. Your endurance and stubbornness give you the energy necessary for long-term projects. You alone can decide whether your goals will satisfy your own personal ambition, or a more vast and humanistic ideal.

Aakriti Sharma was born on the seventh to tenth day after the new moon. This “soli-lunar” configuration means that her character is strong-willed and sometimes proud, always determined to buck convention and innovate. Monotony is unbearable to her, and she chafes under the yoke of routine. As a result, she often runs into trouble with authority figures. When overwhelmed by her conscience, she rages about how destructive it is to long for the past, how ridiculous it is to be old-fashioned, and how obsolete the old values are. Generally speaking, her monthly energy flow crests about seven to ten-and-a-half days after the full moon. She would be wise to schedule intensive work phases at that time, as well as ambitious and demanding projects. At that time, her initiatives will be most successful, especially if she is trying to create something new, original, and cutting-edge!
