You are very observant and sensitive to your inner qualities, which allow you to perceive the essence of people, situations, and objects. You have a strong intuition based on an openness to others, and as a result, you have a strong sense of the group. Sometimes you are perceived as unreliable or untrustworthy, because you can be opportunistic or disloyal. However, these are superficial characteristics. The real reason for your behavior is psychological, and resides in the fact that you are always seeking to maintain the harmony of the group. However, you sometimes lack self-assertiveness, and this makes you contradictory and unreliable when you face certain superficial decisions. Moreover, you have a chameleon-like ability to blend in with situations and prevailing moods, which makes you quite successful in social settings. You are related to your environment through social contacts and friendships, and as a result, you have elaborated a personal code of ethics which reconciles societal norms and the values your family, friends, and relations have passed on to you. You need recognition, and you sometimes attach great importance to other people’s opinions of you. You enjoy love and appreciation, and are touched by praise as much as you are upset by criticism. You have a vital need for others, and loathe solitude. Emotional functions are central to your psyche, and the encounter with a kindred spirit could be a turning point for you, a momentous event in your life. Since you are aware of this, and your tactfulness makes you quite successful with your love interests, you may be content to go from affair to affair without ever settling down. You are skilled at alluding to unnamed urges while seeming to engage in polite conversation.

Due to the influence of Sagittarius (the Centaur-Archer) rising, Andrew Gregory, like the half-animal, half-human Centaur, has a dual, ambivalent nature, vagrant and capricious. It is natural for him to be simultaneously conventional and rebellious. He can happily submit to society and convention for a time, only to emerge committed to rugged individualism, or vice-versa. His inner attachment to an ideal of liberty and emancipation does not prevent him from adopting a sociable, pleasant attitude at social events. This dichotomy in his personality grants him such useful social skills as adaptability and poise, but inside, he faces a quest for his true identity and consciousness. His primary psychological task is to maintain the harmony reigning between the two entities dwelling within him. He must not limit himself to being either one or the other. He will achieve true psychic and existential stability by personifying a blend of these two behavioral tendencies. When he is comfortable with his individuality, he can radiate optimism and energy; flexible and elastic, he will delight in any change or unpredictability, without losing sight of his long-term purposes. Eminently social, he will express his true nature by becoming deeply involved with groups and taking on duties and responsibilities as a member. He will enjoy his ability to infuse them with his idealistic enthusiasm and visions for the future. His special gifts for dealing with energy make him apt to occupy a position of great social responsibility.

Andrew Gregory is sensual. Pleasure is important to him.

Andrew Gregory derives great rewards from every source of pleasure or creation (physical, artistic, or emotional). He has a penchant for speculation.

Deeply social and liberal-minded, you have a great sense of diplomacy and a gift for reconciling differing viewpoints. Friendly and willing to be of service, you are unable to refuse an appeal for help, and your courtesy can tend toward a certain sentimentalism. As a result, you commit yourself to too many people at the same time, and may sometimes feel spread too thin.

As an artist or student of art, you have a profound sense of beauty (harmony, rhythm, composition, associations and juxtapositions, etc.). You like your independence, but will nevertheless bow to custom and usage in good grace. Your sense of fairness and justice is keen, and you spontaneously take up the cause of the defenseless.

I was born three and a half to seven days after the rising of the new moon, and I am said to be a “crescent moon” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration indicates that I may need to make an effort to free myself from the past. Something related to my childhood, my parents, or ancestors is holding me back, impairing my effectiveness and could stand to be overcome. Due to my past, I refuse tried-and-true models, am always fighting to justify my innovative viewpoints, and tend to break away from tradition. I am hardly ever aware that I am making career and lifestyle choices which are based on an urge to modify my relationship to society, and the rigid standards and models from the past.
