DORN today, you have one of those naturally outgoing person- alities. Your magnetism and charm are two characterisiles which help you to get where you want to go with the minimum of exertion. Yet, you are a hard worker and once you have set your mind on something you intend to make a try until you get it. The actual depth of your character is not always 'visible to the casual observer. You have a keen sense of the dramalie and since you are able to speak fluently in public, you will find that a career in which you deal with people is the one in which you will enjoy the best advancement.
Sympathetic to the needs of the underdeveloped groups of the world, you will work to better their conditions, be they here or abroad. Peace-loving by nature, you are perfectly willing to stir up a goal scrap if you think it is in a worthy cause!
You thrive on love and affection. If you are denied this and are th surroundings which are not congenial, you can become Wed at an early age, for noody and very unhappy with life. you need companionship of your own family about you at all times.

You may approach an old problem in entirely new manner and set up fresh pattern of behaviour for the world. You have talent for active feadership as well as in the realm of ideas. This combination is bound to make you a force in the world and one who will make an imprint upon the, age in which you live.
You are a natural executive and know how to plan things for others to execute. You have a scientific approach and like. to base your decisions on facts, although you are secretly intrigued by the mysterious and the oscult
