You have an ideal of which you are only partially conscious, but it has a great influence on your psychology. You are determined to preserve your integrity and purity. Even though you may not be aware of it, you are often preoccupied by this predicament. How can you live in this world and remain true to yourself? How can you succeed in life without sacrificing your ideals? It’s the eternal philosophical dilemma. You have developed a solution, however; you elaborate a fairly strict code of behavior and try to obey it as much as possible. The path that you walk in life is straight and narrow. You yearn for a life that would reflect the ideal you have set for yourself, as free as possible from irrational mysteries and human failings. In fact, although you may sometimes seem a bit rigid, a bit lacking in perspective, it is because your mind understands the macrocosm through the microcosm, and you must observe the completed system before you will form your opinion. You are especially good at sorting and choosing, because your mind is like a filter. It rejects the impurities and only accepts the pure and useful. Analysis, deductive reasoning, and a sense of experimentation are your qualities. You possess great meticulousness and precision which make you a quick and efficient worker. However, you may rely too strongly on your analytical faculties, to the detriment of an overall perception of reality. You like purity and therefore justice. Thus, you are sensitive to human suffering, especially as a result of social injustice, and you will try to remedy the situation according to what you have learned. Once again, the overriding themes of your personality emerge. You want to preserve an ideal, avoid deterioration, change, adulteration. You are offended by imperfection and try to find ways to correct it. You are eager to help, to be useful, to serve a great cause, but you sometimes do not know whom or what you seek to serve. Whatever purpose you adopt, you must learn to help without surrendering yourself entirely; you tend to try to disappear into the background of a hierarchy. You are sometimes attracted by readymade systems, which soothe a certain anxiety you have. You wouldn’t mind devoting yourself to a state, a big corporation, or a dogma. It would be reasonable and satisfying. But you sometimes forget to rebel a bit – to evaluate whether the end justifies the means. You are reassured by predictability. When you commit yourself, you want to know exactly where you are bound and how. This may be a bit of

Due to the influence of Capricorn rising, you have a personality which is relatively aloof. You may be withdrawn or introspective. In fact, you are not inclined to submit to anyone’s influence and lead the independent, solitary life of the individualist. Sometimes skeptical (if not pessimistic) and resigned, you are still shrewd and pragmatic in your insights and judgments. You have a fairly severe, “no-frills” vision of life, and only the pure, bare essence really matters to you. Your personal stability tends to be founded on enduring values – philosophical or scientific facts in relation to spiritual values. Sometimes you seem detached and weary, or disillusioned, and you do not appreciate the social whirl. You do not readily express your feelings and emotions. In truth, you feel a need to protect and restrain a somewhat tempestuous inner sensitivity. Your sense of time, a true instinct, governs all of your activities. Interaction with children, or any other “oral” type of relationship involving a need to protect the weak and helpless, or to intercede with someone more powerful on their behalf, will play a predominant role in your destiny.

Born three and a half to seven days after the rising of the new moon, you are said to be a “crescent moon” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration indicates that you may need to make an effort to free yourself from the past. Something related to your childhood, parents, or ancestors is holding you back, impairing your effectiveness and could stand to be overcome. Due to your past, you refuse tried-and-true models, are always fighting to justify your innovative viewpoints, and tend to break away from tradition. You are hardly ever aware that you are making career and lifestyle choices which are based on an urge to modify your relationship to society, and the rigid standards and models from the past.
