Tom Cotton is a practical mover-doer. His personality has no room for utopian ideals or mirages. When all systems are go, his inner strength and stamina will drive him straight to the heart of the material world with no detours or mistakes. He then becomes the quintessential creator and producer. He creates out of love for the phenomenon of creation on every level. Although his innate sense of matter, his earthiness, may sometimes confine him to the material plane, it also endows him with the power to give substance to his intuitions. His material possessions embody his spirit. He is a person of conviction. He believes in his action; he has faith in his approach. Striding purposefully ahead, he goes even farther, more effectively. He is aware he has a job to carry out; he knows his duty is to create and construct. As a result, it is important for him to be deeply implicated in his career and to feel as though he is really accomplishing a goal that is important to him. He is coherent and pragmatic, and his life and mind are carefully organized. Improvisation is not his forte; on the contrary, he tends to plan out his work in advance, stick to the plan obstinately, and pace himself carefully. This tendency may strike others as being somewhat plodding and slow. But the opinion of others means little to him; he judges himself on the basis of the fruit of his labor. His accomplishments arouse his pride and possessiveness, since he view them as evidence of his worth. However, the work ethic so prevalent in our society is deeply ingrained in him. Merely by slogging on with his duty, he achieves such personal rewards and satisfactions as the knowledge that his potency never flickers; his inner virility and ability to follow through are steady, sure, and irresistible. The only drawback is that his earthiness and stubbornness may confine his interests to somewhat low horizons. His capacity for work is related to a capacity for self-devotion. He is able to give his entire being to a great cause, to devote himself body and soul, with all the might and conscientiousness he possesses, if he believes the goal to be his ultimate purpose. His initial problem is to find the cause he will make his purpose in life, because if he were to err, if he wandered into the trap of a bad cause fraught with risk, he would suffer a terrible setback. Therefore, the essential value which will define his life and destiny

Born in the seven to ten days after the full moon rose, Tom Cotton is of the “last quarter” lunar type. As a result, his personality is fairly independent and self-sufficient. His ideas are original and often bold, but, to his dismay, do not often garner a majority of followers. His sense of humor is his best communications tool, but he often switches to a more severe tone which breaks his charm over his audience, and his methods do not always please the masses. His lack of flexibility hinders his strategies and projects, and he would gain by developing his sense of diplomacy and tact. Although he is not unduly attached to success, because he is so used to being ahead of his time, his failures take a psychological toll on him. Because each setback wears him down a little more, he should try to avoid further disappointments by conforming to contemporary reality a little more closely.
