DORN today, you are constructive in everything you do BO Dare, by nature, a builder, and all those things that call for careful planning, extet execution, and rugged determination are right in line with your talents and capabilitles. Your gifts may turn in several direction, and it is up to you to select one field and stick to it until you have reached your goal.
This is not obe if those fortunate days when everything comes delivered to you on a silver platter. You will have to work hard, but once you have made up your mind what you want to do you can do it. Although you are independent in thought and action, you also have the rare capability of being able to sub- merge yourself and co-operate with others for the common good. There are, in fact, contrasting and conflicting elements in your personality that make you a rather deep person and difficult to understand at first acquaintance.
The arts hold a distinct appeal - flerature, poetry, drama, music so select your Deld and then concentrate. Your affections are strong but you will never wed on impulse. You would have to know someone a long time before making your decision.
