You have an ideal of which you are only partially conscious, but it has a great influence on your psychology. You are determined to preserve your integrity and purity. Even though you may not be aware of it, you are often preoccupied by this predicament. How can you live in this world and remain true to yourself? How can you succeed in life without sacrificing your ideals? It’s the eternal philosophical dilemma.

You have developed a solution, however; you elaborate a fairly strict code of behavior and try to obey it as much as possible. The path that you walk in life is straight and narrow. You yearn for a life that would reflect the ideal you have set for yourself, as free as possible from irrational mysteries and human failings. In fact, although you may sometimes seem a bit rigid, a bit lacking in perspective, it is because your mind understands the macrocosm through the microcosm, and you must observe the completed system before you will form your opinion. You are especially good at sorting and choosing, because your mind is like a filter. It rejects the impurities and only accepts the pure and useful.

Analysis, deductive reasoning, and a sense of experimentation are your qualities. You possess great meticulousness and precision which make you a quick and efficient worker. However, you may rely too strongly on your analytical faculties, to the detriment of an overall perception of reality. You like purity and therefore justice. Thus, you are sensitive to human suffering, especially as a result of social injustice, and you will try to remedy the situation according to what you have learned.

Once again, the overriding themes of your personality emerge. You want to preserve an ideal, avoid deterioration, change, adulteration. You are offended by imperfection and try to find ways to correct it. You are eager to help, to be useful, to serve a great cause, but you sometimes do not know whom or what you seek to serve. Whatever purpose you adopt, you must learn to help without surrendering yourself entirely; you tend to try to disappear into the background of a hierarchy. You are sometimes attracted by readymade systems, which soothe a certain anxiety you have. You wouldn’t mind devoting yourself to a state, a big corporation, or a dogma. It would be reasonable and satisfying. But you sometimes forget to rebel a bit – to evaluate whether the end justifies the means.

You are reassured by predictability. When you commit yourself, you want to know exactly where you are bound and

Due to the influence of Scorpio rising, you have a powerful, forthright, passionate nature with a penchant for possessiveness, be it material, mental, or spiritual. Your own mind proceeds from a fairly skeptical, steadfast, realistic viewpoint, but you are curious about and critical of different ideas. You tend to reject any outside authority. You feel perfectly capable of making your own decisions and can easily sweet-talk people into letting you have your own way. Your personality also gives you the potential to be a gifted investigator and diagnostician in any field. Your skills include detecting and uncovering the hidden aspects of people and things. Your other natural resources are your rigid and unilateral determination, your capacity for self-control, and the stubbornness and energy with which you overcome obstacles. It is important for you to channel your energy into structured activities, or you may become dissipated. Sports or physical exercise will also be beneficial to your well-being.

At the time of your birth, your rising sign was located in Scorpio (the Scorpion), while the sun was passing through the sign of Virgo (the Virgin). Your personality profile is based on the various clues mentioned above, which provide a summary of your character.

You are a highly intelligent and analytical person, with great abilities for discrimination, investigation, and competition. You are also highly competitive and ambitious, and are likely to achieve success in life. However, your skeptic’s instinct may cause you to be realistic and rational to the point of being cold and calculated.

Born on the full moon that rises three and one-half days after the new moon, you have a character configuration that is said to be “lunar.” This configuration gives you an objective, rational mind, but also a more idealistic inclination. Because the moon is opposite the sun at the time of the full moon, your objective tendencies are balanced by a penchant for dreams. Because the forces that pull you in two different directions – one toward reality, the other toward dreams – you may be aware of some inner contradictions that are causing practical and social difficulties for you. At times, you are too demanding of yourself or others, comparing them to an ideal. However, at other times, you are too nonchalant and indulgent about life. You vacillate between two poles. One is elitist; the other is more earthy and perhaps vulgar at times. The result is a multifaceted self. Generally speaking, your monthly energy flow is strongest at the time of the full moon. You would be wise to schedule intensive work phases at that time, as well as ambitious and demanding projects.
