You have a generous, self-sacrifeng nature which is so sympathetic to the wishes even the demands of others that you often appear to subjugate your own personality. Yet, when pushed beyond certain point, a stubbornness exerts itself that can become.Inexplle- able to those who thought you were easily Influenced,
Ja Although you appear to be practical and hard-headed business affairs, there is a peculiar streak of mysticism in your nature which crops out at unexpected moments. Your imagination can often get quite out of control and you conjure up all north of things that might happen in the future! This leads to doubt and uncertainty. Curb this tendency. Learn to think and act in the present and let the future take care of itself. You will be quito adequate to the challenge when it is presented.
You have a magnetle personality which draws people to you. You are a natural Finder and are a good person in a crisis. You appear calm, even if you are in a turmoil underneath. This gives others the needed conildence-and by the time you have rallied ali to your support, you have achieved the inner calm to match your outer polset
Your emotions org near the surface nithough usually under Evod control. You have great loyalties for ties of kin and should find great happiness and contentment in marriage,
