He is confident in himself and life but may tend to be nonchalant. He sometimes needs a little stimulation to get himself rolling and take some initiative. His optimism and inner certainty do not always drive him to give his utmost efforts to achieve a goal. The communications skills he possesses are an advantage as well as a handicap. He makes use of his theatrical gifts, convincing eloquence, and ability to listen. The best careers for him would be teaching, communications, philosophy, the legal profession, theater, and public relations.

Alexander Armstrong enjoys physical and mental freedom. His youth and home may have been of the rootless, wandering type, which could have given him a taste for movement and independence.

Alexander Armstrong, you are emotional and tend to react suddenly and excessively as soon as your sensitivity is touched. Although you feel that your independence, freedom, and self-sufficiency are fundamental values, you are sometimes frustrated by your need to rely on your family or friends. Moreover, you do not always grant the freedom of other people the same respect as your own. Likewise, you are sometimes angered by expressions of maternal tenderness, as if you feared that it would doom you to eternal dependency. Your ambivalent behavior, full of jagged edges, may be traced back to the relationship you had with your mother or a mother figure. Although you were dependent on them, they may have rejected you. Now this attitude is extended to any situation in which your sensitivity comes into play and emotional bonds are liable to form. To ward off your feelings of dependency, you sometimes tend to become destructive. Based on denial, your reactions might be fierce, impulsive, excessive, erratic, or contradictory.

Alexander Armstrong’s sensitivity and emotions are sometimes in conflict with his instincts. This inner discord makes him a fairly complicated relationship partner, and his behavior sometimes strikes others as mysterious or baffling. He is liable to switch from one attitude to the opposite. Sexuality is an important part of his life, and his relationships are most often motivated by his desires. Nevertheless, due to his unconscious inner battle, he does not often succeed in reconciling and fulfilling his emotional and sexual needs.

Distrustful of his emotional urges and somewhat wary of his feelings, he tries to rid himself of all partiality and try to get some perspective and distance before making an emotional commitment.

As a result of this conflict between the conscious, active, masculine principle of your psyche and the unconscious, passive, feminine principle, you are continually subject to tension. You are hesitant and impressionable, and your behavior vacillates between enthusiasm and despair, between shyness and outrageousness, and between passion and indifference. Your love life tends to be a jumble of baroque and eccentric affections which soon dissolve, leaving you feeling baffled and grieving. Unable to refuse when someone appeals to your compassion, you may be gobbled up or allow yourself to be seduced. Your happiness will depend on the one you meet, unless you free yourself through artistic, mystical, or psychic sublimation. However, since you are fairly lucky, you may marry a loyal and brilliant companion who really loves you. Unfortunately, circumstances may then make married life unstable.

Alexander Armstrong’s love life, which is romantic and sometimes unstable, is a series of brief flare-ups and whims.

As a result of his great mental vitality, he tends to have an opinion on every subject, but he does not always have the patience necessary to examine a subject in-depth. He enjoys manipulating expressions and concepts and amuse himself with witty remarks, satire, and controversy. If he learned to control his flow of words and elaborate his thoughts more, he could make a talented communicator. Because he is often too hasty to formulate and construct the arguments which would back up and inform his ideas, he is sometimes misunderstood. He is often blind to the rashness of his judgments and convinced they are well-founded and objective, which sometimes irritates the people around him. If he were to succeed in disciplining his mind somewhat, he would have innumerable opportunities to apply his communications skills to a great career. However, he would do well to be careful of his nerves.
