Twayko searches for stability; she wants to find a firm, unchanging structure for her life. But her efforts to achieve this ideal are often vain, because unconsciously, she is also inhabited by the opposite desire. Every time she reaches what she believes to be a good balance, she realizes she wants something entirely different. She would do well to become aware that the concepts of stability and balance are difficult to apply to life. By definition, life is movement, change, and perpetual instability.
You have a paternal complex, which means you have trouble finding your identity. Perhaps your father or a father figure was absent physically or emotionally during your childhood, which deprived you of the patterns or models which are usually helpful in structuring a personality. Because you might have lacked a particular sense of security which could be provided by a paternal presence, as well as the examples of behavior to follow in confronting the difficulties inherent in every life, you were forced to protect yourself against negative influences and find your own system in order to grow and feel secure. Although this system was quite useful to you as a child, it has now settled in to such a degree that it interferes with your evolution. Psychological defense mechanisms and crutches which were once useful now encumber your mind or inhibit your developmental efforts. As a result, in certain situations, it is difficult for you to assert yourself, and you tend to remain an awkward or passive observer. Because your authoritarian urges are mainly directed at yourself rather than others, you sometimes feel guilty about your behavior. You judge yourself severely, and sometimes punishes yourself by setting difficult tasks for yourself. Gradually, you should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.
At the moment of your birth, the two celestial “lights” (the sun and the moon) were symmetrically aligned. This is a portent of harmony between the masculine and feminine archetypes which is extremely beneficial. It is the source of balance and understanding between the two main psychological realms which may be said to compose the personality. You thus enjoy a positive complementarity and understanding between the conscious and unconscious aspects of your psyche, between your determination and your routines, between your drive for self-assertion and your receptivity, your ideal and your sensitivity. Your parents almost certainly reflected a positive image of the marriage relationship to you, and it is likely that they encouraged you to develop your own individuality. As a result, you were and are able to be comfortable with yourself as you are instead of striving to attain your parents’ ideal. This has definitely contributed to the maintenance of a good relationship with them and the rest of the family. In your emotional relationships with your peers, one of the effects of the masculine/feminine harmony is that the images your ego projects on the other are especially constructive. The bonds of the relationship are not felt to be constraints, the energy which flows between the two people is a source of mutual happiness, not regret. No major personal conflicts are projected onto the “other” – that is, the significant other.
Twayko is extremely vigorous and energetic and has an immense need to assert her individuality. Her attitudes and actions are actually motivated by an unconscious desire for power. They puzzle the people close to her, who cannot understand whether her behavior is the result of pure selfishness or merely of an excess of energy. She is lively, alert, and determined, but she is too easily distracted from goals by futile competition or opportunities to exhibit her power. She has a short temper and must learn to control her impulsiveness, which might expose her to a great deal of unnecessary conflict.
Twayko has a great potential for creative, constructive accomplishments; however, it is sometimes difficult for her to gain access to this part of herself. She is confident in herself and life but may tend to be nonchalant. Sometimes she needs a little stimulation to get herself rolling and take some initiative. Her optimism and inner certainty do not always drive her to give her utmost efforts to achieve a goal. The communications skills she possesses are an advantage as well as a handicap. She makes use of her theatrical gifts, convincing eloquence, and ability to listen. The best careers for her would be teaching, communications, philosophy, the legal profession, theater, and public relations.
You are sober and rather reserved and may even strike people as harsh and austere at times. Perhaps you were raised in an atmosphere of rigor and sobriety, and, as a result, grew up very fast. You have acquired a spirit of self-sufficiency, tend to be rather uncompromising, and have a touchy sense of your personal dignity and worth. It is almost as though you were fighting an inner battle with your father or a father figure. The psychological models you received from your father or a father figure as a result of your interaction and your own interaction with authority may have played a major role in shaping your relationships with the outer world and society. You may thus have been forced to compensate for this with individual determination. As a result, although you are skillful, meticulous, conscientious, and efficient, a lack of self-confidence and personal assurance sometimes makes you timid and hesitant. You sometimes feel as though you are only masquerading as a respectable, sober adult. You tend to be far too critical of yourself and rarely feel satisfied that you are living up to your ideal. These unnecessary guilt feelings may lead you to turn down the prominent career positions for which you are fully qualified. You are aware that early success is often short-lived and fragile and that time rewards those who know how to be patient and persistent, like you.
Although you keep a tight grip on your emotions, you have an appetite for intense emotional thrills, especially in your relationships, and are sometimes upset by them. Feelings of insecurity may keep you from expressing your emotions, and you tend at times to become jealous or possessive of the person you love. The force of your emotional drives is intense and especially evident when you have been wounded in some way in the course of a love affair, or if you feel as though someone, a friend or lover, has betrayed you. You have a tendency to be masochistic and thrive on suffering. You may abandon yourself to your emotional fears and trifle with your inner vulnerability.
You are an individualist who believes in freedom and independence. You have shed what you perceive as the burden of social conventions and adopted a unique lifestyle. Your passionate convictions can sometimes create problems in your relationships, as you may be uncompromising in your dealings. You should learn to recognize your own limits and accept the responsibilities you have to other people, or you are likely to find yourself in conflictual relationships frequently. The roots of your behavior might be traced to your relationship with your father or teachers in childhood and adolescence. For one reason or another, you may have rejected the paternal image or refused to identify with your father, in the same way that you reject conventional values now. In every important life decision you make as an adult, you have to rely on yourself to develop the appropriate behavior, and impose boundaries on your desires in relation to reality and the law.
You are a very sensitive and receptive person, and you tend to live in osmosis with your surroundings. Your individuality almost seems to be diluted in a flood of sensations and impressions which are continually washing over you, and you sometimes find it difficult to communicate your feelings to other people. This tide of emotion is a source of inspiration and intuition, but your fluid inner structure and organization sometimes make it difficult for you to grasp the essence of your dreams and share them with other people. You are not at all combative, and this tends to hinder your efforts to fit into society and assert yourself productively. You are likely to prefer fantasy to reality, but your refusal to abandon your unattainable dreams is a psychological trap you have fallen into without realizing it. You must understand that by running away from your obligations and commitments, you only increase the feelings of guilt which made reality so distasteful in the first place. Once you free yourself from this pernicious process, you have a great deal of potential for fulfilling yourself in the outer world, either by devoting yourself to some sort of social work or by cultivating your considerable artistic talents.
Twayko is gentle and sensitive. You are deeply human and enjoy being around others. Your mother or a mother-figure had a strong influence on your psyche and your childhood was important to you. You still identify with vivid childhood memories; they are the basis for your reveries, for your extreme sensitivity, and for habits which you may be slow to break. However, you will thrive in the shelter of a family setting, soothed by the presence of a spouse and children. You are fond of security and routine; being somewhat impressionable and anxious, you may have trouble adjusting to situations which are unfamiliar.
Twayko has a sensitive personality. She may jump to conclusions, which could disrupt relationships, as well as career plans. She is subject to cyclical energy flows and goes from periods of feverish activity to periods of withdrawal and introspection. The aggressive element in her behavior may be explained by emotional problems she may have experienced in infancy: her mother, or a mother figure, may have had an energetic and volatile personality.
Twayko was feeling out of place. After all, he had always been a cautious person, preferring to stay within the safety of familiar surroundings. But now, as he looked around at the unfamiliar faces and the unfamiliar setting, he felt a sense of unease creeping up on him. He struggled to summon the energy to engage with the people around him, opting instead to retreat back into the safety of his past.
Twayko was sensitive and imaginative, and sometimes had trouble distinguishing dreams from reality. Although her bubbling imagination provided an abundant source of inspiration for creative or spiritual evolution, it tended to be less helpful and positive in matters that concerned her self-assertion as responsible and self-sufficient. In a relationship, she was extremely romantic and did not always see others the way they really were.
Twayko tries to express her affections in the most graceful and harmonious way possible. Indeed, she has an innate sense of harmony and strives for a love relationship characterized by balance and perfection. She tends to idealize both her partner and the institution of marriage. Any disillusionment she encounters in the pursuit of her ideal may be experienced as a frustration. She does not always ply her powers of seduction skillfully.
Twayko’s birth chart indicates an emotional function which is expressed in a direct and fairly impulsive way. She enjoys reaching out to other people and making discoveries. An eternal teenager with her gaze riveted on the future, she is imbued with an eminently subjective and personal idealism.
Twayko is a blend of strength and weakness. The force of her emotions is often incompatible with her great sensitivity, which makes her behavior baffling to those close to her. Her family ties are quite strong and may have hindered her personal development. Emotionally, she is especially attracted to strong individuals – the serious, silent type. However, they must be able to understand her and protect her from herself and others. Love and her children, if she chooses to have them, will become the center of her life, so it is important that she chooses the right person to be her life partner.
Twayko’s love affairs are usually endowed with an aura of artistic talent and sophistication, giving them a dramatic quality. However, despite the odd and exciting circumstances which surround her encounters, the liaison generally loses its mystery and settles into being a fairly conventional social arrangement.
You are a passionate and ardent person, and your relationships with the opposite sex are energized by intensity and passion. A charmer perpetually engaged in a quest for the ideal love, you are often more in love with the idea of love than with your partners. As a result, your love life may be subject to some instability. You are generally attracted to original people who defy norms, standards, and classifications, and expect them to amaze and fascinate you. Love is often a matter of luck with you. Even when a relationship falls apart, you do not see the experience as a failure or a tragedy; instead, you seem to learn valuable lessons from your mistakes. Psychologically, your emotion contributes positively and efficiently to your evolution. From another standpoint, your acute sensitivity predisposes you to original and subtle tastes; you are so receptive to beauty and attached to the concepts of truth and balance that they may all combine to yield remarkable creative potential.
Twayko has a mental aptitude for comparing, evaluating, and weighing information. This intellectual modus operandi has enabled her to develop an innate sense of values, both artistic and ethical, as well as a remarkable ability to relate to other people. Her appreciative, conciliatory attitude makes her a skillful diplomat able to untangle conflict situations deftly and with ease. In other situations, her artistic spirit is sensitive to a wide variety of harmonies.
Twayko expresses her thoughts and ideas in direct, spontaneous outbursts. She is fairly extroverted and eager to discover and understand the outer world. An idealist, she looks forward to a bright future but is sometimes subjective and reckless.
You are usually kind and benevolent in your dealings with other people. You have a certain charm and are adept at speaking persuasively and convincingly, which makes you very successful socially. However, when you have to compete or deal with direct conflict and hostility, you may be somewhat at a loss for how to behave. You have an undeniable gift for oratory which could be applied to a communications-related occupation or to artistic expression (as a stage or screen actor). Writing and dance, two other arts which associate expression and movement, might also be fields in which you would excel.
