Ja Morant 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 his 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.

The psychological dynamic described earlier explains many of the pluses and minuses in his personality. His dignity and self-assurance may border on vanity; his strong instinct and ambition combined with his somewhat exaggerated individualism incline him to be self-focused. He may be proud, but he is also courageous, determined, and generous. He has the skills of an educator or an artist; moreover, he is mysteriously lucky.

Ja Morant is sensual. Pleasure is important to Ja Morant.

Ja Morant’s personality develops mainly in the shelter of the home. Ja Morant is attached to Ja Morant’s family, heritage, and past.

At the time of Ja Morant’s birth, their rising sign was located in Capricorn (the Goat), while the sun was passing through the sign of Leo (the Lion). A summary of the various clues mentioned above provide Ja Morant’s personality profile. The following key words capture the essence of their character and indicate certain contradictions which may be sources of tension:

Narcissism – Need for security – Determination – Inhibition – Pride and self-assurance – Application – Superiority – Methodical mind – Brilliance – Forethought – Generosity – Loyalty – Optimism.

Ja Morant’s energetic, proud, and self-admiring side engages their guileful, withdrawn, calculating side either in conflict or in cooperation, depending on the circumstances.

Their authority and determination often monopolize their energy, at the expense of their emotions. Or they may find themselves distracted from pursuing their goals by the whisperings of their heart. By middle age, however, they should reach a balance which gives liberal expression to all their gifts. Control over their emotions, pride, and passions should then give them access to the highest realms of self-realization.

Born three days before the new moon, Ja Morant is said to be of the “balsamic moon” type. This soli-lunar configuration gives Ja a spiritualistic character closely attached to generous humanitarian ideals. Ja is sometimes sorely tried to limit themselves to the narrow scope of individual ambition.

Indeed, Ja aims for a humanitarian ideal which would include the outcasts and the unfortunate. Ja fervently hopes the meek will inherit the earth. To bring about this ideal, Ja is likely to seize every resource placed at their disposal: physical effort, money (if they have it), speech, their writings, and their poetic or artistic talents. However, Ja should be wary of their unconscious guilt feelings.

Actually, there is no reason for Ja to devote themselves to their mission entirely; a simple daily effort should suffice to express their philosophy and free their conscience. Usually, the three days preceding the new moon will be time in the monthly lunar cycle most favorable to Ja’s activities and their general energy level.
