Benjamin Bronfman is a fiery, emotional creature. As a result of the preponderance of emotion, sensation, and feeling in his psychological make-up, he has acquired a deep sense of his individuality and uniqueness. He sometimes feels “different” – set apart from others. In order to justify this idea of himself, he attempts to behave differently, to impress the crowd, and the product of his efforts is usually rather grandiose and exaggerated. It’s a self-perpetuating bind, because his impressive deeds usually earn recognition for him, and reinforce his self-assurance and his certainty that he does indeed stand head and shoulders above the rest. He sometimes makes an attempt to bluff and show off with an emotional display. He likes to take risks and give people advice. Nevertheless, at the basis of his conduct, there is a feeling of social anxiety, which is probably unconscious or unconfessed. He may fear being absorbed or enslaved by society. The positive side of this unconscious anxiety is that it drives him to create, to counteract the deeply felt effects of time and the masses on his ego. By creating something, he can make his own individual mark on the world; he can organize it to reflect his own image, instead of allowing himself to be submerged by it. The preceding comments about creating the world in your own image are strong indications that he seeks to identify with his superego. The difference between his ideal of himself and the individual he knows himself to be in truth, measured in terms of his social recognition or the recognition of his creations (children, works of art, etc.), will determine his state of mind. It is therefore important for him to make these images match to a certain extent, to reduce the gap as much as possible.

Benjamin Bronfman is a committed pacifist. He treasures harmony and will actively strive to achieve it both in his social life (in his relationships with others) and in his private life (in terms of art, grace, and beauty). He is conscious of his debt to others, and he takes his commitments very seriously, rarely neglecting his social responsibilities and obligations. He expects the same of others in return and may be offended by their lack of grace or a casual attitude to social duties. As a result, his intimate ties (to a partner, for example) will be of primordial interest to him. A committed diplomat, he has an innate sense of generosity and truth, which makes him an expert diplomat. However, he must learn to overcome his anxieties and occasional fits of self-doubt. Once he does, he can accomplish all he has the potential to do in the field of relationships and social harmony.

Benjamin Bronfman thrives in the peace and security of the nest. His spouse and family will be an important part of his life.

Benjamin Bronfman lives in an imaginary world; the distant and abstract often interests him more than what is right at hand and realistic.

Benjamin Bronfman was born under the sign of Libra (the Scales), while the sun was passing through the sign of Leo (the Lion). A summary of the various clues mentioned above provides his personality profile. The following key words capture the essence of his character and indicate certain contradictions which may be sources of tension:

Sociability – Adaptability – Determination – Emotion – Pride and self-assurance – Tolerance – Superiority – Peaceful disposition – Brilliance – Sense of harmony – Generosity – Worldliness – Optimism.

Because he was endowed with great esthetic sensitivity, Benjamin Bronfman needs and loves beauty, order, and harmony. His extreme sociability and difficulty bearing discord are likely to cost him some of his independence, if he is not careful. However, he has remarkable organizational and management skills. His optimism and enthusiasm, tactfulness, and sincere concern for others make him a natural leader.

Benjamin Bronfman was born on the third day after the full moon rose. As a “full moon” lunar type, he has an objective, rational character, but is also blessed with a more idealistic inclination. Because the moon is opposite the sun at the time of the full moon, his tendencies are balanced and he is able to see both sides of an issue. However, because of the forces that pull him in two different directions – one toward dreams, the other toward reality – Benjamin Bronfman may experience some inner contradictions which are causing practical and social difficulties for him. At times he is too demanding of himself or others, comparing them to an ideal, while at others he is too nonchalant and indulgent. He vacillates between two poles, one being elitist and the other more earthy. Generally speaking, his monthly energy flow is strongest at the time of the full moon, which would be a good time to schedule intensive work phases and ambitious and demanding projects.
