B PORN today, you have a great deal of power In your personality, and you are able to influence prople, sometimes against their wills, to do your bidding. Be sure that your standards are niways high, for wherever you lead, others are very apt to follow. Although you would like the world to believe that you operate on reason, you have exceptionally strong intuitions, and women especially are apt to follow their hunches, even if they seem contrary to all common sense, What is more, these psychic Impulses more often than not are apt to be right and stand up under the test of time.
You have an exceptionally strong will and cannot be pushed bee in- into anything against your wishes. However, you can fluenced through your affections. This you must guard against, since your emotions, while not demonstrative, are deep and often play an important part in the forming of your important decisions. Yu show affection for your intimates, but you are apt to change your circle of close associates so often that no one knows exactly where you stand from one moment to the next.
ore,
You are such a strong personality that you are inclined to have very little patience with those who are weaker than you You don't seem to understand that not everyone can have the same capabilities of strength and self-determination such as you have! Try to be a little more sympathetic and understanding and you will and that you are most popular. There is apt to be but ong love in your life, and if this does not culminate in marriage, It is possible that you might never wed.
Among those born on this date were: Fanny Crosty, hymn composer: George Francis Train, author; Andrew Mellon, atutes- man and philanthropist; Joel Barlow, diploma, and poel; Rufus King, Colonial statesman; and Thomas E. Dewey, statesman.
