AJ McLean’s confidence in himself sometimes falters, and he might try to compensate for this weakness by insisting on his authority over others. With the people he is emotionally committed to, the same nagging feelings of insecurity prevent him from expressing his generosity and love fully; his extreme independence sometimes hides an inability to abandon himself and a lack of assurance.

AJ McLean has a paternal complex and, as a result, some trouble finding his identity. Perhaps his father or a father figure was absent physically or emotionally during his childhood, which deprived him of the patterns or models which are usually helpful in structuring a personality. Because he might have lacked a particular sense of security which could be provided by a paternal presence, as well as the examples of behavior to follow in confronting the difficulties inherent in every life, he was forced to protect himself against negative influences and find his own system in order to grow and feel secure. Although this system was quite useful to him as a child, it has now settled in to such a degree that it interferes with his evolution. Psychological defense mechanisms and crutches which were once useful now encumber his mind or inhibit his developmental efforts. As a result, in certain situations, it is difficult for him to assert himself, and he tends to remain an awkward or passive observer. Because his authoritarian urges are mainly directed at himself rather than others, he sometimes feels guilty about his behavior. He judges himself severely, and sometimes punishes himself by setting difficult tasks for himself. Gradually, he should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.

Born under a new moon, AJ McLean enjoys a positive balance between the conscious and unconscious aspects of her psyche. Her determination and sensitivity balance one another and work together harmoniously. Her inner life contributes to the relationships with other people which make up her outer life. Her parents or teachers probably gave her the type of education which was adapted to her personality. As a result, her personality is basically balanced, which, of course, does not mean that her life is devoid of little asperities. Generally, the goals she sets for herself correspond to her skills. Without giving the matter much thought, she tends to follow prevailing trends and behaves in a conventional enough way. She is subjective and sees the world according to her own perceptions instead of the way it really is.

AJ McLean is affectionate by nature, and love plays a decisive and central role in his life. He is a charmer who needs to love and be loved. Aware of his personal magnetism and the power it gives him, he will make subtle changes in himself in order to attract positive attention. He is sophisticated and pleased to savor a lifestyle he sees as a consummate art.

AJ McLean has an inalienable awareness of the void and the vanity of existence. He is sometimes disoriented and deconstructed by an unknowable, unconscious force and tends to ignore or disparage the superficial pleasures and pains of daily life, preferring to dive into the depths of human experience as deeply as his intellectual, emotional, and spiritual capacities permit. Grappling with his “fundamental nature,” with the deepest and most primitive part of himself, AJ is sometimes aghast at the discovery of the sheer power of the life instinct and feels an imperious need to cope with it. This special consciousness he has been endowed with is somewhat beyond the bounds of conventional schools of human understanding and thought and may be a source of identity problems for him at the outset. It is not easy for AJ to recognize himself in any social or narcissistic models or identify with any existing roles or attitudes, so he sometimes finds himself forced to construct and assert his own identity on a basis which may impress others with its intensity, if not its eccentricity.

AJ McLean usually keeps cool and distant in personality, repressing his feelings and sensitivity. This inhibition is related to a feeling of not having been loved enough. In many cases, to the detriment of his love life, AJ is capable of plunging all his energy into his work. He seeks social recognition through his career achievements.

AJ McLean is an expansive, affable, and communicative associate. Indeed, some people find him generous almost to a fault! He gives of himself and his resources unstintingly. Paradoxically, there are times when he is self-focused. He reacts instinctively, without taking the trouble to analyze a given situation, and is prone to misjudge. As a result, his everyday life may be riddled with a whole variety of practical problems. Indeed, he senses a conflict between his social life and his family and will sometimes find it hard to fulfill himself in both spheres at the same time. His attitude toward his private life may inhibit his ambitions for social or career expansion; at worst, society (the law) may impinge on his private life. He should be careful not to project his personal problems onto his partner. If, instead, the two of them analyzed the problem, they might be able to find opportunities to resolve it together.

Although you maintain a cool exterior, you are extremely sensitive. At times, your rather austere and rigid behavior and your refusal to yield too readily to sentimentality discourage others from being too demonstrative of their tenderness and affection. You have spells of melancholy in which you do not feel worthy of being loved and tend to forbid yourself any emotional fulfillment whatsoever. An austere or somewhat traumatic childhood experience may be the source of this behavior. It is difficult for your inner self to be detached from this past life, and you sometimes have trouble reconciling the image you have of yourself as an adult with the one you acquired back then. The idea you have of yourself as an individual is related to the image your parents projected onto you as a child. Nevertheless, the past is history, and you are now an adult. Through self-work, you can rid yourself of these phantoms. You have the ability to overcome your mistakes, as well as great endurance and will power to achieve your goals. Nevertheless, you must not repress your sensitivity in order to succeed.

AJ McLean feels insecure about his worth and often tries to gain approval from others by showing that he is worthy of their affection. Nevertheless, his pessimism remains, and the severe taboos he unconsciously places on himself sometimes keep him from developing quickly.

AJ McLean is sometimes afraid to love. The world of his feelings is characterized by a certain chill and restraint. But he is not unfeeling; on the contrary, his sensitivity is so delicate that he is careful to protect it. His determination to maintain control of his feelings and force his emotions to obey the laws of reason may stand in the way of intimacy and joy.

AJ McLean’s birth chart indicates an emotional function which is expressed in a direct and fairly impulsive way. She enjoys reaching out to other people and making discoveries. An eternal teenager with her gaze riveted on the future, she is imbued with an eminently subjective and personal idealism.

AJ McLean is an outwardly inhibited person who is subject to powerful and upsetting inner passions. She usually denies her emotions and feelings, and is more comfortable with her career where her desire to progress and her taste for power give her wings. She will do well to admit that her emotions cannot be repressed indefinitely.

AJ McLean is ambitious and quite aware of her own worth, and there is nothing romantic or sentimental about her attitude to relationships. If she married, her relationship would have to be a smooth-running ‘business’ that serves her social ambitions, but this is not necessarily the best route to emotional fulfillment and happiness.

AJ McLean has an ardent and amorous character. Her relationships with the other sex are enlivened by intensity and passion. A charmer perpetually engaged in a quest for the ideal love, she is often more in love with the idea of love than with her partners. As a result, her love life may be subject to some instability. She is generally attracted to original people who defy norms, standards, and classifications, and expect them to amaze and fascinate her. Love is often a matter of luck with her. Even when a relationship falls apart, she does not see the experience as a failure or a tragedy; instead, she seems to learn valuable lessons from her mistakes. Psychologically, her emotion contributes positively and efficiently to her evolution. From another standpoint, her acute sensitivity predisposes her to original and subtle tastes; she is so receptive to beauty and attached to the concepts of truth and balance that they may all combine to yield remarkable creative potential.

You are a complex individual, full of contradictions. Because you sometimes feel vulnerable emotionally, you try to control not only your own feelings and urges, but may also strive to manipulate those of your partners. You aspire to a profound and enduring spiritual unity, but at the same time, the idea of abandoning yourself and yielding to the other terrifies you. This anguish may be a source of rather extreme behavior patterns and a somewhat self-focused attitude which could damage the relationship. Because you are guarded and somewhat secretive, you tend to be suspicious and are especially uneasy about spontaneous intimacy, although you are fascinated by sexuality. Within the privacy of the couple, you will not express your feelings unless you are subject to some tension. Life may be peppered with frequent crises and feuds, arguments and spats which usually act as erotic provocation. This derivation of eroticism from anxiety tends to be one of the fundamental characteristics of your emotional and sexual functioning. As a result, you are likely to be attracted by stormy and complicated relationships.

AJ McLean is more theoretical than logical and more intuitive than rational when it comes to thinking about vast subjects. When it comes to foreign languages or contacts abroad, AJ McLean is attracted to wide open spaces and distant horizons.

AJ McLean expresses her thoughts and ideas in direct, spontaneous outbursts. She is fairly extroverted and eager to discover and understand the outer world. An idealist, she looks forward to a bright future but is sometimes subjective and reckless.

AJ McLean, you sometimes make mistakes in judgment, and your understanding of things is not always in tune with social realities or prevailing opinion. Your judgments tend to be hasty; your decisions are reckless. Moreover, you tend to overestimate your abilities and usually aim higher than might be realistic. Once an enterprise or project is underway, you may try to avoid obstacles by dodging certain duties. Because your vision of the world differs somewhat from social realities, you should be extremely careful and scrupulous in regard to legal matters, in order to avoid any complications of that type. You are sometimes slightly dishonest in your relations; you may break promises or attempt to duck responsibility. However, you should realize that such conduct toward other people is also a form of unconscious self-loathing. If you continue to behave in such a way, you are exposing yourself to the same lack of sincerity from your partners.
