You, William Legate, have developed a solution to the eternal philosophical dilemma: 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, and 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 an obstacle to your love life. You tend to keep a tight rein on your urges, to inhibit your emotions. You would not want them to upset your carefully organized existence, after all! But you would do well to learn not to perceive spontaneity as such a threat. Powerful passions and sentiments may overwhelm you, since you tend to prefer reason, moderation,

His own mind proceeds from a fairly skeptical, steadfast viewpoint, and though he oscillates between objectivity and subjectivity, he is curious and critical in a constructive way. He has the mental potential to be a gifted investigator and diagnostician. He also exerts a strong attraction and can be quite charming, so he is bound to be a social success. He possesses rigid and unilateral determination, a capacity for self-control, and the ability to face challenges with stubbornness and energy. He is sensual and sensitive, and love and lust will be vital to his destiny. Because he seeks intense emotional experiences and his instincts sometimes control his feelings, his love life will not be bland or banal.

William Legate was born on the three days prior to the new moon’s appearance, and is said to be of the “balsamic moon” type. This soli-lunar configuration gives him a spiritualistic character closely attached to generous humanitarian ideals. He is sometimes sorely tried to limit himself to the narrow scope of individual ambition. Indeed, he aims for a humanitarian ideal which would include the outcasts and the unfortunate. He fervently hopes the meek will inherit the earth. To bring about this ideal, he is likely to seize every resource placed at his disposal: physical effort, money (if he has it), speech, his writings, and his poetic or artistic talents. However, he should be wary of his unconscious guilt feelings. Actually, there is no reason for him to devote himself to his mission entirely; a simple daily effort should suffice to express his philosophy and free his conscience. Usually, the three days preceding the new moon will be time in the monthly lunar cycle most favorable to his activities and his general energy level.
