Barbara Minty is a person who is oriented towards the mind. She understands and relates to the world around her by using her thoughts and intellect. She loves to memorize, compare, analyze, and verbalize her mental imagery. She seeks to extend her personality by mentally outreach to a multitude of new ideas and factors, becoming acquainted with an ever-increasing variety of facets of human nature. Thus, language and symbolic expression (written or oral) are her primary resources in life. However, they also pose potential pitfalls. Her eloquence, wit, and verve give her power over other people (via communication), and she enjoys playing the role of entertainer. However, her adaptability can also be a weakness, as she is liable to make questionable compromises with herself. She is also sensitive, but her emotions and feelings can be subject to the scrutiny and censorship of her intellect. Consequently, she cannot free herself to the strength of great passions and energies without idealizing them and giving them intellectual resonance. She is wary of her irrational instincts and urges, and tends to control or repress them. However, she will do well to learn that the intellect is not omnipotent, especially when it comes to instincts. Barbara Minty inhabits a complex inner world, and sometimes feels vulnerable due to her emotionalism and sensitivity to the aggressions of the outer world. Because she relies first and foremost on her adaptability and agility to wriggle out of trouble, she may, on certain occasions, make rather dubious compromises with herself. However, she possesses strengths such as instability, wishy-washiness, a lack of determination and coherence in her thought.

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

Barbara Minty feels the need to belong to a group in order to feel fulfilled.

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