Al B. Sure! is a person who is very oriented towards their thoughts and intellect. They enjoy memorizing, analyzing, and comparing things to come up with new ideas. They are also very social, making friends quickly and easily. They find communication and expression through language very important, and are also skilled at using symbolic expression. They sometimes amuse themselves by playing out various roles in life, and are very animated and witty. Their adaptability and agility can be a strength, but they can also be vulnerable to instability, wishy-washiness, and a lack of determination.

Due to the influence of Virgo rising, you are ruled by reason. Your intellectual functions predominate over your emotional or sentimental impulses. Your mind is analytical and critical, and naturally questioning and skeptical. 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 may fret and worry unnecessarily over tiny details. Although you are attracted by the idea of cooperating with a group on some major accomplishment, and you would like to test your skills as a manager and organizer, your perfectionism could prevent you from delegating responsibility, and your preoccupation with order on a daily basis could prove to be an obstacle to the elaboration of long-term strategies. Outside the realm of work, you are cerebral about your emotions, and you might hesitate to give them free expression. You have a strong desire to improve this aspect of yourself. Characteristically, you proceed to do so by taking some sort of conscious action which you hope will promote change and self-transformation. The influence most likely to be a factor in this transformation is your ability to interact with others, socially or at work. If you accept the challenge of overcoming your tendency to deny your emotions, you will be able to build a more rewarding, less restrictive life for yourself.

Al B. Sure! thrives in the peace and security of the nest. His spouse and family will be an important part of his life.

Al B. Sure! needs others to fulfill himself and accomplish his ambitions.

Born seven to ten days after the rising of the new moon, you are said to be a “first quarter” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration means that your character is strong-willed and sometimes proud, always determined to buck convention and innovate. Monotony is unbearable to you, and you chafe under the yoke of routine. As a result, you often run into trouble with authority figures. When overwhelmed by your conscience, you rave 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, your monthly energy flow crests about seven to ten-and-a-half days after the full moon. You would be wise to schedule intensive work phases at that time, as well as ambitious and demanding projects. At that time, your initiatives will be most successful, especially if you are trying to create something new, original, and cutting-edge!
