Ben Barnes seeks to make his inner wealth outwardly manifest and substantial.

Ben Barnes tends to be centered on himself and his own personal development, and may not necessarily seek contact with others. He tends to be reluctant to team up with other people in any way. An individualist, Ben attempts to free himself from any outside influence; in fact, he is eager to leave his personal imprint on the world around him. Often, due to his lack of perspective in relation to other people, Ben rebuffs their help and cooperation on projects. It is only by working and acting independently that Ben can accomplish his goals and ambitions.

Ben Barnes tends to keep his individual identity intact while contributing to important social causes or collective ideals, according to his own individual direction. Although he may become personally involved in social affairs, he is likely to resist any project he will be unable to lead himself, according to his own individual direction. He tends to identify himself with an activity with social implications and attempt to know himself through this activity.

Ben Barnes needs to assert his originality. He is individualistic and independent and lives life according to his own rules. People and things matter to him only insofar as they relate to him, and he ignores or disregards any annoyances he may encounter. His passions are lively and ardent, and he truly loves to give. He is endowed with great authenticity and can be quite generous, as long as he is aware that others admire him.

Ben Barnes struggles to get into natural harmony with the physical world and the limitations and restraints it places upon him. Idealistic, he tends to be somewhat disconnected from practical considerations, and barely pays any attention to material things like food, money, his surroundings, and so on. He tends to be footloose and fancy-free, oblivious to the necessities of survival in the physical world, until his lack of material resources – an issue to which he usually grants no importance – becomes an emergency. This feeling of being out of touch with material things and the physical dimension of reality may sometimes lead him to see himself as unfit for this world. He may think he cannot attach himself to anything that would sustain his efforts at self-expression. However, his impractical nature offers many positive aspects. He sees life’s possibilities as limitless. He is apt to develop his imagination or pursue a spiritual quest in order to transcend the material world.
