Big 30 experiences its inner life as a process of growth and maturation, nurtured by its involvement with others and the positive and negative encounters this generates.

Big 30 is relatively extroverted and leads a life which is open to the outside world. Their personal consciousness is forged by the heat of outer events. They are inclined to adopt the most objective viewpoint possible to be pragmatic and perhaps even materialistic.

Big 30 tends to identify itself with social affairs and attempts to know itself through this activity.

The Big 30 is a realist. She approaches life pragmatically and even her feelings are based on rational, tangible evidence. She bases her judgements on past experience and is prone to skepticism. A hard worker, she takes pride in her own endeavors and has a personal concept of her productivity. Her possessions help her assert herself as an individual and act as an antidote to any feelings of insecurity. As a result, material accomplishments may preoccupy her more than either love as a passion or intellectual or philosophical considerations. Nevertheless, she becomes attached to anything which offers her certainty.

You work harder than others to understand other people’s feelings. But this seeming lack of empathy and compassion for others simply mirrors your own difficulty in understanding your own feelings and emotional needs. You are not insensitive, but you are baffled by your own emotions. You see the emotional world as a foreign terrain, perhaps fraught with hidden dangers. Becoming familiar with it would present more drawbacks than advantages. As a result, you may appear to be hard or aloof. You might struggle to establish a rewarding relationship, as you seek special individuals to bond with. You have a strong desire for emotional independence, and might have trouble seeing other people’s emotional needs. You might even be the first to deny that such needs are real. As a result, your dependency on others is unconscious. Because it is seen as such a threat, it is repressed. Actually, although you offer conscious resistance to anyone who tries to lure you out of your emotional bubble, you are always making timid, half-conscious forays into the world of feelings, because your loneliness and fear are so unbearable.
