The specific personality traits of Ayumi Kurihara can be summed up by her nostalgic yearning for her roots, which is also a source of energy and vitality. Her power is linked to memory, and she inhabits a present which draws sustenance from the past, from continuity and timelessness. The power of memory can either be dynamic or static. The consciousness of an inaccessible past can either immobilize her in melancholy and nostalgia, or shine as an ideal which motivates her to recreate a new harmony. Her attitude and approach to the past are of key importance. If she thinks of it as a refuge, her obsession with it may be such that her progress is impeded. If, on the contrary, she thinks of it as a starting point or launching pad for her comprehension of the human condition, she will integrate it into her self-realization process. She possesses a potential for great maturation and wisdom. She is relatively slow-moving and may feel protected from the outer world by an armor of education, family surroundings (her most cherished environment), and social status. For this reason, she tends to limit the scope of her activities to a single well-defined sphere, and, within the boundaries she has established, release the entire spectrum of her rich and varied emotional expression. Sometimes she may feel overwhelmed by the prospect of situations which will introduce her to unfamiliar factors and elements; she sees them as intrusions. Before she judges an event, a person, or a thing, she attempts to absorb it into her private universe. Of a fairly subjective and introverted turn of mind, she defines everything in terms of the sensation it arouses in her as her consciousness embraces it. This predominance of sensation gives her extreme sensory finesse. Her perceptions are intense, keen, penetrating right to the heart of people and things. Her imagination, which is a function of her perceptions, is also lively, colorful, and prolific. Because she is sometimes self-centered, attentive to and protective of her inner self, she may tend to withdraw into her shell when she encounters aggression from the outer world. As a result, she may sometimes become distant and secretive. Her tendency to be rather short-tempered and easily offended, a classic flaw, is also the consequence of her need for protection and security. Despite her sensitivity, and her ability to be genuinely virtuous, she is not always gentle. Her outbreaks of hostility are all the more wounding because of their rarity. However, more than aggressiveness, her stubbornness, slow insistence, and und

Ayumi Kurihara thrives in the peace and security of the nest. Her spouse and family will be an important part of her life.

Ayumi Kurihara needs others to fulfill herself and accomplish her ambitions.

You were born in the sign of Libra, which is the Scales. The sun was passing through the sign of Cancer at the time of your birth, which provides your personality profile. Your key words capture the essence of your character and indicate certain contradictions which may be sources of tension.

Sociability – Sensitivity – Adaptability – Imagination – Emotion – Eccentricity – Tolerance – Savings and thrift – Peaceful disposition – Suspicion – Sense of harmony – Obstinacy – Worldliness – Premonition.

Your romantic, imaginative personality gives an original aura to your attraction and charm. Careful to shield your sensitive emotions from the slings and arrows of the outside world, you are happiest within the privacy of your family circle or among a small group of close friends. At work, you show yourself to be conscientious and well-organized, but somewhat plodding and stubborn. Your need for harmony and balance inspires you to respect other people’s opinions, and you are mindful of traditions and social conventions. Although your capacities for logic and intellectual reasoning are sometimes tinged by your emotions, you are endowed with a remarkable talent for knowing and appreciating beauty.

Born on the third day after the full moon rose, you are said to be a “lunar type” with an objective, rational character. However, because the moon is opposite the sun at the time of the full moon, your objective tendencies are balanced by an idealistic penchant. Because the forces pull you in two different directions – one toward dreams, the other toward reality – you may be aware of some inner contradictions which are causing practical and social difficulties for you. At times, you are too demanding of yourself or others, comparing them to an ideal, whereas at others, 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.
