You are observant and introspective, paying close attention to the special qualities that make you unique and able to understand the essences of people, situations, and objects. You have a deep intuition based on an openness to the other, and this makes you adept at sensing the mood and feelings of others. As a result, you often have a strong sense of the group and are willing to sacrifice your own ego for the good of the group. Sometimes others perceive you as unreliable or untrustworthy, due to your tendency to be opportunistic or disloyal. However, these are superficial qualities and the real reason for your behavior is psychological. You are constantly seeking to maintain the harmony of the group, and this can sometimes be a challenge. You also have a tendency to be contradictory and unreliable, when you have to make quick decisions. Moreover, you are often unassertive and this can make you difficult to deal with when you encounter situations that are superficial. However, you have a great ability to blend in with your environment and to get along with others, which makes you successful in social settings. Your mind is remarkably flexible, able to make connections between people and ideas. All of your emotional health is invested in your desire to participate and to mingle. Although you are consciously aware of this desire, you sometimes feel guilty for not achieving your goal, which always seems to elude you. This is why you have periods of discouragement followed by renewed zeal in your work efforts or group participation. Because you are constantly seeking the perfect group, the ideal form of cooperation, you sometimes despair of ever finding it. You have a natural tendency to find common ground for people, to reconcile differing opinions and viewpoints, and you are partial to any arrangement that promotes cooperation or fellowship. Because you are not aggressive by nature, you know how to make peace. You are also skilled at negotiating and being a go-between. As a result, you are content to go from one affair to another without ever settling down, out of the fear of shutting out a greater possibility for passionate love. You love to charm and be charmed, and you are skilled at seductive conversation. You are also adept at alluding to unnamed urges while appearing to be engaged in polite conversation.

Born in the three days after the rising of the new moon, you are said to be a “new moon” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration gives you a subjective character, somewhat impulsive and sometimes emotive. Generally, you do not see the world in objective terms; instead, you base your attitude on the feelings various situations arouse inside you. Likewise, in human relationships, you tend to project your imaginary reality onto others instead of seeing them for what they are. As a result, your judgements and reasoning are sometimes deprived of perspective. You may want to make an effort to refrain from overinterpreting other people’s actions, because, being the product of your imagination in most cases, your interpretations are mistaken. If you apply yourself to listening more openly, people may reveal their deeper motivations. You’ll be happier and more effective as a result.
