You are a loner. You are sometimes withdrawn and have a fairly chilly, nonchalant personality. Although you are introverted, you are extremely rational. You are wary at times of the outer world, your senses, and even your intellect, because they might all be sources of illusion. Your quest for identity with a spiritual whole gives you a voracious appetite for ideologies, structures, and theories. Readings which others would find abstract and intellectual impress you as reflections of important and lively realities. As a result, you have a penchant for reflection and philosophical study. You are intrigued by difficult problems and enjoy solving them. There is no difficulty which can discourage you from the goal you have decided to reach for yourself. Your depth of vision, common sense, and caution, your tendency to be a bit calculating and sometimes conservative, your stamina, and your independent mind all give you the ability to tackle difficult tasks. Your concentration gives you an undeniable gift for abstraction and conjecture. As a theoretician, you aim to discover what is essential and universal. Indeed, you seek to go beyond what is relative, contingent upon circumstances, or inadequate, to reach the absolute truth you fervently desire. Your budding intuition is extremely receptive to the sacred or holy. As a result, the ideal or cause you espouse will be related to the concept of universality or totality. Since your lifetime adventure is based in part on this absolute truth, it is important for you to make an effort to define its nature. What sort of universality are you striving for; what spiritual Everest (in yourself or outwardly) are you trying to scale? In fact, you tend to like mountain climbing, because of the effort it requires. It’s a great joy for you. Alone at the peak, you can contemplate and understand everything. In pursuit of this absolute center (positive or negative) which animates you, you are shrewd and persistent. Stamina and endurance are resources of which you are quite confident. Your existence and organism are arranged to optimize them; others may consider you slow, but you are really just playing it safe, because, unconsciously, you know time is on your side. When you take an initiative, it is after careful forethought and preparation. Your great composure, ability to resist and overcome obstacles and wickedness, and your foresight give you a great potential to accomplish total self-control. However, you must beware of one pitfall: excess. You tend to be a bit too rigid and intolerant; in intellectual pursuits

Emotionalism – Guile – Pliancy – Need for security – Humbleness and reserve – Inhibition – Idealism – Application – Methodical mind – Intuition – Forethought – Premonition – Loyalty.

From the outside, you appear cautious and severe, but inside, you are sensitive and giving. Because you are excessively impressionable, you are reluctant to express your true self. You hide your deepest impulses behind a mask of distance and remoteness, feigning indifference if not faint-heartedness. However, you are deceiving mainly yourself. Your powers of concentration and determination, your great ability to control yourself, and the analytical and interpretative qualities of your mind are important assets. If you develop them, you will have the potential to accomplish great things.

Joseph Parker was born on the third day after the new moon, a “new moon” lunar type. This configuration gives him a subjective character, somewhat impulsive and sometimes emotive. Generally, he doesn’t see the world in objective terms; instead, he bases his attitude on the feelings various situations arouse inside him. Likewise, in human relationships, he projects his imaginary reality onto others instead of seeing them for what they are. As a result, his judgements and reasoning are sometimes deprived of perspective. He may want to make an effort to refrain from overinterpreting other people’s actions, because, being the product of his imagination in most cases, his interpretations are mistaken. If he applies himself to listening more openly, people may reveal their deeper motivations. He’ll be happier and more effective as a result.
