Character and Personality
The following paragraphs concern the study of ROSE's
personality, as induced by the positions of the planets and
Rising sign. Some of the character traits mentioned may seem
completely contradictory and incompatible. This is because
the rough-hewn personality is a rarity. Usually, individuals
are made up of a subtle orchestration of many different
tones or aspects. However, serious introspection or detailed
analysis should make it possible to distinguish the opposing
or diverging images comprising ROSE's overall character, and
perhaps, in time, find the best and most harmonious way to
integrate them.
ROSE's personality is mind-oriented. She understands and
relates to the world around her and herself via the medium
of thought and intellect. Memorization, comparison,
analysis, and the verbalization of her mental imagery are
her favorite activities. She seeks to extend her personality
by a mental outreach to a multitude of new ideas and
factors, becoming acquainted with an ever-increasing variety
of facets of human nature. Thus, language and symbolic
expression, written or oral, are her primary resources in
life, although they are also potential pitfalls. Her
eloquence, wit, and verve, her mastery of language,
unquestionably give her power over other people (via
communication) and things (science and technique). But taken
to extremes, this faculty may lead to incoherent babbling.
It is thus vital for ROSE to find an outlet for her flow of
verbal expression, she must explain, communicate, and speak.
If it is dammed up, she will undoubtedly suffer. Her flow of
words is the expression of her vital energy, the proof that
she is alive and well. If she is forced to be silent, she
would be cut off from the bonds that hold her together. A
kind of duality or split personality might emerge...
remember Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? " They " were a
classic case. For all of the above reasons, ROSE is
naturally gregarious and sociable.
She makes friends quickly and easily. Her contacts and
networks are important to her, because they enable her to
evolve; they are a source of self-fulfillment and
identification. Any form of play is also important to her,
and only severe depression will deprive her of her
playfulness. Finding a partner for play within herself in
many cases, she sometimes amuses herself by acting out a
variety of roles on the stage of life, just for the fun of
it. Her animation and wit give her a talent for
improvisation and adaptation. However, adaptability is a
two-bladed sword. She is liable to find herself in a
superficial bind, having jettisoned certain important ideas
in order to move about more freely. ROSE is also sensitive,
but her emotions and feelings are sometimes subject to the
scrutiny and censorship of her intellect. Thus, she cannot
free herself to the strength of great passions and energies
without idealizing them to a certain degree and giving them
intellectual resonance. Wary of her irrational instincts and
urges, she tends to control or repress them.
But she will have to learn that the intellect is not
omnipotent, especially where instinct is concerned.
Inhabiting a complex inner world, ROSE sometimes feels
vulnerable, due to her emotionalism and sensitivity to the
aggressions of the outer world. Because she relies first and
foremost on her adaptability and agility to wriggle out of
trouble, she may, on certain occasions, make rather dubious
compromises with herself - all the more likely if her moral
fiber is made of wax, as is often the case, instead of
steel. The weaknesses she must overcome are instability,
wishy-washiness, a lack of determination and coherence in
her thought.
Due to the influence of Taurus rising, ROSE has an easily
harnessed but straightforward and pragmatic temperament,
which thrives on stability. The sense of touch is primordial
to her, and she has a special feeling for physical contact
with textures and sensations. As a result, she is sensual
and luxury-loving, and appreciates good food almost to
excess. She is typically solid and forthright, but guileful
enough to bluff her way through difficult situations on the
strength of her self-confidence. Because people appreciate
her organizational skills, good nature, and pragmatism, she
could easily become a leader or manager in a social or
professional setting. If she succeeds in attracting the
group's attention, she will become a dedicated and
unstinting worker, and her productivity can become a source
of real pleasure and material rewards for her. However, it
is important for her to work on overcoming her selfishness
and possessiveness. She is best matched with partners with
Scorpio characteristics; their social vision and inspiration
would broaden the horizon and scope of her activities.
ROSE needs movement. She is a talented communicator.
ROSE has a strong personality; she is sometimes a little
self-centered. Her fate is in her own hands!
At the time of ROSE's birth, her Rising Sign was located
in Taurus (the Bull), while the Sun was passing through the
constellation of Gemini (the Twins). A summary of the
various clues mentioned above provide ROSE's personality
profile; the following key words distill the essence of her
character and indicate certain contradictions which may
create tension:
Need for contact - Opposition to progress - Irritability -
Compassion - Frivolity - Perseverance - Dilettantism -
Pragmatism - Immaturity - Productivity - Communication -
Sensuality - Inner duality.
These contradictory influences form a character subject to
split personality. One side of ROSE is flexible, agile,
blithe, and perhaps even frivolous, whereas at other times,
a cagey, materialistic spirit may make her possessive and
perhaps even miserly. As a result, her inner life is
fascinatingly complex and her behavior is unpredictable.
Attitudes and opinions which appear to be weighty and
purposeful turn out to be weak and flimsy. Her firmest
convictions are subject to influence from the outer
environment.
Born in the three days after the rising of the New Moon,
ROSE is said to be a " New Moon " lunar type. This
" soli-lunar " configuration gives her a
subjective character, somewhat impulsive and sometimes
emotive. Generally, she does not see the world in objective
terms; instead, she bases her attitude on the feelings
various situations arouse inside her. Likewise, in human
relationships, she tends to project her imaginary reality
onto others instead of seeing them for what they are. As a
result, her judgements and reasoning are sometimes deprived
of perspective. She should make an effort to refrain from
overinterpreting other people's actions, because, being the
product of her imagination in most cases, her
interpretations are mistaken. If she applies herself to
listening more openly, people may reveal their deeper
motivations. She'll be happier and more effective as a
result.
Due to the influence of Mercury, which dominates her birth
chart, mental and intellectual energy rules ROSE's
personality. She has her own philosophy, and her vision of
the world is fairly orderly: it does not exceed the limits
of linguistic expression. A sociable, adaptable person, she
needs to keep moving in search of novelty and mental
excitement. She enjoys talking, communicating, and
conveying; bringing people and ideas together, creating
games with words and meaning.
Temperament
The graph below reveals the various influences on ROSE's
nature in relation to the percentage value of each element.
These values were calculated according to the number of
planets and the hierarchical position of each one (dominant,
luminary, etc.). The basic personality tendencies as
described here will no doubt be counteracted to some degree
by the environmental, psychological, or emotional needs
outlined in the next chapter. Nevertheless, they form the
roots of her psyche, anchoring it as it grows and develops.
ROSE's psyche follows an extroverted thrust. She
attempts to embody and actualize her ideas and the
archetypes she identifies with in her objective life.
ROSE's tendency to introversion inclines her to live inside
herself, amid her inner world. She is apt to listen to her
subjectivity, her intuition, and her secret opinions rather
than reason and logic.
ROSE's uppermost concern is her personal, subjective
interest. Because the development of her personal identity
requires great individual freedom of action, she tries to
free herself from outer restraints and limitations.
Psychologically self-centered, she remains fairly detached
from the social world; she reduces such commitments to the
strict minimum. Individualistic and egocentric, she derives
her feelings of inner security from her ability to command
her will and handle her personal involvement's freely and
openly.
ROSE is self-centered and sees everything in relation to
herself. Individualistic and fairly egotistical, she finds
she is rarely of the same opinion as others, and may tend to
isolate herself from the outer world. On the other hand, she
is gifted with the ability to concentrate on whatever
subject is really important to her, which would enable her
to acquire expertise in any professional domain she chose.
But first she would have to overcome her initial
subjectivity.
Thought, intuition, and inner perceptions predominate in
ROSE's psyche. Open and curious, optimistic and
enthusiastic, she is eager to participate in everything
happening around her. Her affections are lively and
spontaneous, but may be more intellectual than sensual. In a
partner, she would seek a source of mutual spiritual or
artistic inspiration. Light-hearted and perhaps even fickle,
she never allows herself to be overcome by outer realities
or emotions. In its most exaggerated form, her buoyancy
borders on indifference.
The numerous contradictions and tensions which are a
recurrent feature of ROSE's astral theme balance each other
out and endow her with a stable, well-tempered character,
after all. Indeed, they are especially likely to protect her
from unsolvable frustrations and, in terms of reality, will
enable her to acquire a certain social and professional
success without too much effort on her part. At that point,
she must be careful not to take on too many
responsibilities. Her confidence in her ability to
accomplish things may make her spread herself too thin.
The behavioral roles and models ROSE adopts are based mainly
on mental processes. She determines her purposes in life
after careful reflection; she is attracted by intellectual
theories and systems. A mobile personality, she is skilled
at meeting people and may spontaneously establish very close
friendships, even if they are not usually lasting.
Impressionable and subject to the pressures of her
environment, her relationships, both private and
professional, are relatively unstable.

Psychological Analysis
The following psychological study is a " blind
" analysis which cannot take into consideration factors
proper to ROSE's social background or education.
Nevertheless, it describes the basic structure and dynamic
of her psyche as the result of an interplay of various
influences; that is, without confining it to certain
categories or arbitrarily putting a label on it. Certain
contradictions may appear, but they are an integral part of
the paradoxes and ambivalence of her nature. It is
impossible for us to predict which tendency will win out:
that will depend on ROSE's decision.
Consciousness and The Ideal of Self:
ROSE is trying to overcome her feelings of insecurity.
To do so, she needs a home: a dwelling, a territory, or
perhaps a safe space or setting where she can rest, and let
down her systems of defense against the outer world, which
she finds aggressive and hostile. She is ready to make some
sacrifices in order to maintain and consolidate the
structure she has chosen. True inner security, based on real
knowledge of herself, her abilities, and her shortcomings,
her strengths and her weaknesses, would no doubt be most
effective, and would allow her to remain open to the
varieties of experience offered by the world.
ROSE is affectionate by nature, and love plays a decisive
and central role in her life. She is a charmer who needs to
love and be loved. Aware of her personal magnetism and the
power it gives her, she will make subtle changes in herself
in order to attract positive attention. She is
sophisticated, and pleased to savor a lifestyle she sees as
a consummate art.
ROSE has great strength of character. Her courage and
endurance enable her to accomplish even extremely arduous
tasks. Although she sometimes behaves impulsively, she
generally knows how to plan out an effective strategy and,
as a result, reaches her goals without meeting any major
obstacles. Her forcefulness gives her certain leadership
skills, which she may implement to creative and constructive
ends.
ROSE is extremely sensitive and receptive, and tends to live
in osmosis with her surroundings. Her individuality almost
seems to be diluted in a flood of sensations and impressions
which are continually washing over her, and she sometimes
finds it difficult to communicate her feelings to other
people or engage in any structured, analytical thought. This
may stem from a misunderstanding with her teachers when she
was a child. Unable to understand their disciplinary
measures or authority, she may have withdrawn into herself
in self-defense. It was then that she constructed her rich
inner life, the part of her they could not invade, and cut
many of her ties to the outside. Because she enjoyed
indulging in her inner life, it may have been difficult for
her to acquire an objective vision of reality. As a result,
even today, she tends to create imaginary problems for
herself, regardless of the objective facts outside. Although
her imagination is a source of inspiration and intuition,
her fluid inner structure and organization sometimes make it
difficult for her to grasp the essence of her dreams and
share them with other people. She is not at all combative,
and this tends to hinder her efforts to fit into society and
assert herself productively. She is likely to prefer fantasy
to reality, but her refusal to abandon her unattainable
dreams is a psychological trap she has fallen into without
realizing it. She must understand that by running away from
her obligations and commitments, she only increases the
feelings of guilt and incompetence which made reality so
distasteful in the first place. Once she frees herself from
this pernicious process, she has a great deal of potential
for fulfilling herself in the outer world, either by
devoting herself to some sort of social work or by
cultivating her considerable artistic talents.
ROSE generally tends to be motivated by activities which
apply to social needs. She tends to give the best of herself
in difficult situations which require crucial choices. Her
ability to concentrate and her gift for solving problems by
deductive reasoning are her chief resources in crisis
situations or at turning points in her life.
Adaptation and Sensitivity:
Mild and sensitive, ROSE is deeply human. She is
sociable and sincerely devoted to others. Her mother (or a
mother-figure) had a strong influence on her psyche, and her
childhood was an important time in her life. She still
identifies with vivid childhood memories; they are the basis
for her reveries, for her extreme sensitivity, and for
habits which she may be slow to break. However, she will
thrive in the shelter of a family setting, soothed by the
presence of a husband and children. She is fond of security
and routine; being somewhat impressionable and anxious, she
may have trouble adjusting to situations which are
unfamiliar.
Due to her extreme sensitivity and irrepressible
imagination, ROSE sometimes has trouble distinguishing
dreams from reality. Although her bubbling imagination
provides an abundant source of inspiration for creative or
spiritual evolution, it tends to be less helpful and
positive in matters that concern her self-assertion as a
responsible and self-sufficient adult member of society. In
a relationship, she is extremely romantic, and does not
always see others the way they really are.
ROSE's sensitivity and emotions are sometimes in conflict
with her instincts. This inner discord makes her a fairly
complicated relationship partner, and her behavior sometimes
strikes others as mysterious or baffling. Moody and totally
unpredictable, she is liable to switch from one extreme
attitude to the opposite. Sexuality is an important part of
ROSE's life, and her relationships are most often motivated
by her desires. Nevertheless, due to her unconscious inner
battle, she does not often succeed in reconciling and
fulfilling her emotional and sexual needs. Due to the
strength of her instincts, passion may overwhelm her and
drag her into situations she cannot always control, which
intermingle erotic ecstasy and anguish, guilt and
aggressiveness.
Love and Sensuality:
ROSE enjoys captivating people with the elegance and
ease of her expression. She is a witty and engaging flirt,
an avid player of the game of love. As a result, the history
of her affections is liable to be episodic, a long series of
chapters about conquests or fleeting love affairs. She may
carry on some love relationships by writing letters.
ROSE's birth chart indicates an emotional function which is
expressed in a direct and fairly impulsive way. She enjoys
reaching out to other people and making discoveries. An
eternal teenager with her gaze riveted on the future, she is
imbued with an eminently subjective and personal idealism.
Somewhat unstable, somewhat infantile, ROSE has an extremely
intuitive nature, and her seeming sixth sense makes her
acutely sensitive to everything. She is excessively
emotional, and tends to be somewhat dysfunctional due to her
impressionability. She identifies with and reflects the
person she loves.
She will find motherhood fulfilling, and it will bring her
maturity. As she becomes more peaceful, realistic, and
consistent, her family life will come to the forefront. She
will adore her children and nurture them as a symbol of her
own fulfillment.
From the outside, ROSE seems to be detached and aloof, but
on the inside she is an extremely complex individual, full
of contradictions. Because she sometimes feels vulnerable
emotionally, she tries to control not only her own feelings
and urges, but may also strive to manipulate those of her
partners. She aspires to a profound and enduring spiritual
unity, but at the same time, the idea of abandoning herself
and yielding to the other terrifies her completely. This
anguish may be a source of rather extreme behavior patterns
and a somewhat selfish attitude which could damage the
relationship. Because she is guarded and somewhat secretive,
she tends to be suspicious and is especially uneasy about
spontaneous intimacy, although she is fascinated by
sexuality. Within the privacy of the couple, she will not
express her feelings unless she is subject to some tension.
Life may be peppered with frequent crises and feuds,
arguments and spats which usually act as erotic provocation.
This derivation of eroticism from anxiety tends to be one of
the fundamental characteristics of ROSE's emotional and
sexual functioning. As a result, she is likely to be
attracted by stormy and complicated relationships.
Mental and Intellect:
ROSE is somewhat plodding but realistic and pragmatic.
Because she is chiefly preoccupied with the tangible world
and the practical aspects of things, she is especially apt
to develop more efficient production concepts. Although her
good judgment and common sense provide her with an excellent
ability to handle the tangible world (she is certainly
clever, and can quickly assess the tangible value of
things), her thought processes are relatively impervious to
abstract concepts and spiritual awakenings.
ROSE expresses her thoughts and ideas carefully, but with a
relative lack of spontaneity. She is rather introverted and
looks inside herself for the solutions to the problems she
encounters in life. Because she tends to mistrust customary
thought patterns, her opinion is usually highly personal.
ROSE's intellectual faculties and wit are sometimes slowed
down because they are turned inward. Because she tends to be
oriented towards herself, she rarely tries to communicate
with others for the simple pleasure of doing so. Indeed, she
sometimes feels misunderstood. Moreover, it seems difficult
to her to express the complexity of her inner perceptions.
Energy and Ability to take Action:
ROSE possesses a prodigious ability to fight for her
goals and accomplish them. However, depending on how she
applies it, it can lead to the best or worst results. If she
commits herself to a noble ideal or experiment or a daring
adventure, it will yield remarkable career achievements.
However, it can also be a source of anger and intolerance,
if it is committed to the defense of her own pride and
arrogance.
Dynamic but also individualistic at times, ROSE is compelled
to experiment with her own limitations. In all her
activities, even the most routine matters, she seeks
self-sufficiency and freedom. She cannot envisage not being
her own boss and not following her own purposes. This
attitude, which is softened only by the fear of material or
emotional loss, is sometimes prejudicial to her.
Nevertheless, her willingness to take risks, to intervene
immediately, combined with her quick reflexes and her
ability to mobilize all her energy instantaneously, are
great advantages to anyone in an independent or freelance
career. Her profile is especially well matched to risky
ventures like cutting-edge businesses, research, trade, and
engineering. However the lack of forethought her impetuous
behavior implies is sometimes the source of errors.
Misjudgment, failure to foresee, and erroneous predictions
may cause blunders or strategic fumbles which force her to
switch paths or goals. This introduces an undesirable
element of instability or incoherence into her life.
Moreover, her haste and recklessness may expose her to some
misfortunes.
ROSE does not always have a clear and precise vision of what
she is capable of doing, or of what she really wants to do.
She is ready to commit herself to ideals and causes which
she appreciates personally, but the people around her
sometimes disapprove of or scoff at these schemes. As a
result, some of the people close to her criticize her for
being unrealistic, because they do not understand her
deepest motivations. Because her initiatives or commitments
to action require an extremely personal approach, she may
hesitate for a relatively long time before she finds a field
she feels is worthy of her involvement. She is especially
intrigued by the realm of the unknown, the mysterious, and
the strange, and is likely to engage in activities which are
highly unconventional. Nevertheless, she must be careful not
to set in motion forces which will escape her control.
Because she tends to be inspired by humanitarian ideals, she
may find that she has a calling for social work or helping
others. Moreover, she might satisfy her craving for the
fantastic by devoting herself to such arts as theater,
photography, or film.
ROSE's behavior and attitude are unique. She is sometimes
excessive, and tends to be short-tempered; she may quickly
become aggressive if she encounters the slightest opposition
or resistance. Determined and obstinate in the pursuit of
her goals, she is sometimes disappointed when she realizes
that the object of her desire no longer interests her once
she has attained it. Because her will mingles with her
personal desire, she tends to be motivated by a quest for
her own personal satisfaction, and sometimes finds it
difficult to commit herself to activities which do not
concern her personally.
Dominant Astrological Characteristics
Mercury is the first dominant in ROSE's astral chart. In
the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance
of this fact:
According to Greek myth, Mercury (or hermes, whose name
derives etymologically from the piles of rocks which marked
trails and guided travelers) was the messenger of the gods.
She carried orders from Olympus to the mortals on Earth. The
child of the illegitimate union of Zeus with Maia, Mercury
was born " unknown to the immortal gods " and had
to win her place among them by trickery, cleverness, and
cunning. This is why she became the vagabond deity of
travelers and wanderers. She is the instinctive foe of the
settled, who see her as an outcast roaming on the outskirts
of society: a pariah, a thief, and a swindler. As mater of
the sign of Gemini, the Twins, she symbolizes the brother -
the alter-ego who teaches us as much as we teach her, and is
associated with adolescence, a period of intense
intellectual discovery. Mercury thus symbolizes lively,
sparkling wit, mobility in any form, mental exchange and
interaction. As a result, a person strongly ruled by Mercury
is quite likely to be clever and skillful. If Mercury is
" afflicted ", her intellectual velocity may
sometimes become mere mental hyperactivity. In any case, her
skills are a great resource in the social realm. She
communicates easily and effectively, orally or in writing.
Her ability to unite and transmit would be a good resource
in diplomatic or commercial endeavors.
Jupiter is the second dominant in ROSE's astral chart. In
the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance
of this fact:
In traditional astrology, Jupiter has always been
considered as the Great Benefactor, the planet of luck and
success such as personal fortune, social prominence,
professional prestige, high political position... The
Jupiterian bounty is peerless! In psychological terms, this
planet has a much vaster significance. As the biggest planet
in the solar system, it does preside over the process of
personal expansion, interpreted to be fitting into society
better and finding an appropriate match between one's
individual ambitions and the aspirations of the group. These
growth is accompanied by a feeling of self-confidence,
which, in turn, buoys up an even greater externalization and
expansion of the ego. hence the planet's flattering
reputation. But this snowball effect (Jupiter smiles and the
world smiles with her), in which social skills magnify
confidence and boldness reaps many rewards, betrays the
negative side of Jupiter: extreme and excess. Although
grandeur was the characteristic of the " king of the
gods ", errors of judgment, poor taste, and sometimes
selfishness and pride are also likely to be part of the
Jupiterian package. It is important to note that the
extension of the ego may be a form of escape; it is tempting
to hide behind one's popularity and social success, which
are fairly easy to obtain, rather than be really demanding
with oneself. The Jupiterian has a tendency to amplify her
qualities out of compensation, to avoid seeing her
weaknesses and flaws. As a result, she must be aware of the
risk of over identifying with her social mask, which would
cause her to neglect her inner self and deep nature.
Venus is the third dominant in ROSE's astral chart. In
the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance
of this fact:
In traditional astrology, Venus (or Aphrodite, her Greek
name) is the planet of love. A source of universal
attraction, this planet corresponds to the original urge
which bonds two human beings together in love. Venus is thus
both the magnetism which brings human beings together (not
lust, which is symbolized by Mars, but the object which
attracts lust) and the gift of love. This ambiguity is
interpreted astrologically by the fact that Venus rules two
houses of the Zodiac: in Taurus, Venus symbolizes the
awakening to bodily lust, and in Libra, the bond of
marriage. As a result, Venus may take on very different
aspects depending on the individual's degree of awareness.
Likewise, this ambiguity explains Aphrodite's equivocal
conduct in Greek myth and her innumerable couplings and
motherhood. Depending on the legend, she may embody brutal,
passionate love (with Anteros), the wisdom of the heart
which rescues from passion (Harmonia); she also becomes
tenderness and purity (with Adonis), pure sexuality (with
Eros), a transforming energy (with Vulcan), etc. Mistress of
the Arts, she represents beauty, understanding, and peace.
Psychologically, the individuals under the influence of
Venus are struggling with their love instincts. This is why
ROSE cannot conceive of living without a personal emotional
relationship to someone else and sometimes fears solitude
and the encounter with herself. She is extremely attractive
to others, and is a creator and artistic genius who seems to
imbue all she touches with beauty and harmony. Her artistic
skills are obvious to the people around her, and may be
applied to career endeavors. Pleasure, outings, seduction,
love, and a thriving but sometimes superficial social life
are the hallmarks of her life. Nevertheless, one day she
will have to learn to give out of the goodness of her heart,
and not as a means of seduction.
The First House is an area of the sky which is especially
important in ROSE's theme, because it contains several
planets, including the one which rules her Rising Sign. In
the following paragraph, we shall explain the general
meaning of this fact.
According to tradition, this area is related to the
domain of the INDIVIDUAL. It thus rules the subject herself,
her character, talents, and abilities. The Rising Sign (at
the peak of the First House) corresponds to the horizon line
at the moment of birth. By outlining the exact location of
the sunrise, it emphasizes the relationship between the
cosmos and the Earth, the universal and the individual. In
psychological terms, this point on the map of the sky which
is represented by the zodiac refers to the necessity for
individuation: the need to embody one's potential identity,
or the essence of one's identity. When this area is
especially prominent, it indicates that the subject's most
significant experiences will concern her individuation: what
she wants, what she is capable of, what she herself thinks,
etc. - those are the important things. Her destiny may be
strewn with difficulties and occasional crises, and most of
them will be related to a lack of differentiation. This will
be the case despite a strong desire to assert an individual
identity. It will thus be important for her to isolate and
reveal her individuality and specificity by mastering her
potentials and becoming unique. This uniqueness, which has
nothing to do with mere originality or eccentricity, may
justify her true purpose in living.
Synthesis and Advice
Many people mistakenly believe that astrology is too
deterministic. However, as even the ancients said, "
The stars incline but do not determine. " In fact, the
astral chart is evidence that each of us is accountable only
to himself for his life and his destiny. Neither heaven nor
the occasional shell of human contacts can be held
responsible for the situation down here on Earth. Astrology
shows us that life is what we make of it: all we really
obtain is what we decide to accomplish ourselves, of our own
volition.
If ROSE really wants to improve and transform herself,
the first step is to become aware of the weaknesses which
may be holding her back and preventing her evolution:
- her shallowness bordering on superficiality
- her lack of sincerity
- her indifference
- her frivolity
- her fear of commitment
ROSE may experience discord in her relationships. Although
she is friendly and outgoing, and commits herself to
friendships and partnerships, she often finds it difficult
for her to balance her own needs, desires, and goals with
the objective reality of others, and their individual
desires and needs. To understand and overcome this problem,
she should accept the idea that every relationship follows
more or less the same general scheme: a base of intimacy and
an accomplishment or purpose apart from the relationship
itself. If she succeeds in defining, through discussion and
communication, what sort of intimate relationship she and
her partners want to maintain, and what accomplishment or
purpose they hope to achieve, many a conflict will be
avoided.
ROSE might strive to develop new behavioral models, new
lifestyles, new roles. To do so, she must reexamine the way
she usually behaves, feels, and thinks, and try to improve
the way she is. Were she to withdraw physically,
emotionally, or spiritually from the outer world to take
refuge inside herself, it might be a form of escape, a
postponement. However, it is only by confronting her
discomfort with life and solving her identity crisis that
she will find fulfillment.
Psychological Profile
ROSE sometimes lacks energy. She is fairly apathetic and
passive, preferring sluggishness to movement, and leniency
to initiative. The greater the ratio, the more exaggerated
her tendency to laziness will be.
ROSE's interest in any activity or theme is never lukewarm;
she always commits herself passionately. She thus has the
ability to engage in any sort of task, as long as the
material is varied and diverse, a source of novelty and
distraction. If the ratio is very large, she may be
disturbed or affected by her emotions.
ROSE feels, thinks, and acts as a function of objective
circumstances. The outer world is the only one which counts
for her, and her awareness is entirely focused on it. She is
rarely moody or preoccupied, and may sometimes be wary of
her subjectivity.
ROSE has a phlegmatic personality, and her responses to
various outer stimuli are sometimes postponed or delayed.
She is fairly slow to initiate an activity, if not
laboriously so, but once she begins she is steady and
determined.
It is sometimes difficult for ROSE to focus her
concentration on a single subject; however, she is extremely
open, and always tries to learn and integrate new
information and new ideas. She is more cross-disciplinary
than specialist, and her centers of interest are fairly
widespread and varied.
ROSE's objectivity in perception and behavior could, in the
best of cases, lead to generosity and altruism.
ROSE has a marked ability to adapt to others, to adopt
prevailing attitudes, and integrate herself into groups. She
is quite community-minded, with a true sense of team spirit,
and gives the best of herself when working in unison with a
group. Cooperation is her forte.
ROSE has a tendency to yield, to follow, to put up with
situations, and follow other people's orders. She is modest
and unassuming, with a need for protection and a tendency to
be dependent.
ROSE sometimes doubts in herself and her skills; her lack of
self-confidence makes her fairly shy and self-effacing.
Feelings of inferiority may interfere with her ability to
take action, or, on the contrary, may propel her into action
if she sees a possibility of reward or compensation.
Because she is often in a positive frame of mind, ROSE finds
it easy to make decisions, and is only rarely hindered by
negative feelings or anxiety. However, her optimism may lead
her to overestimate her own potential, and makes her liable
to misjudgment.
ROSE is chiefly interested in tangible facts and realistic
details. A pragmatic personality, she never loses sight of
the utilitarian or practical aspects of things.
ROSE's approach to life is usually methodical and
disciplined: she plans out her projects, and organizes her
schedule to yield maximum efficiency and effectiveness.
ROSE's thought processes rarely follow the laws of logical
reasoning or linear thought; instead, they proceed from an
overall vision, which is pieced together from more or less
obscure and subconscious clues.
ROSE's mind is especially perceptive of details. To arrive
at a global perception, a vision of the whole, she proceeds
gradually, piece by piece, aspect after aspect, in a fairly
linear fashion.
ROSE is inclined to be messy and scattered. She is not
especially eager to sort things out or arrange them. She
likes to be surrounded by her chaos, and usually manages to
pluck out what she needs, although she occasionally loses
things, and may even lose herself.
ROSE's behavior usually obeys her momentary whims, and she
allows herself to be inspired by her imagination or whatever
situation arises. Her openness and spontaneity give her the
scope to be skillful, ingenious, or shrewd, rising to
whatever the immediate circumstances require.
ROSE continually needs excitement and action. She is fairly
fluctuating and faithless, and may abandon a project or
commitment as soon as boredom sets in, to move on to a more
exciting experience.

Ideal Partner
ROSE's Sun is located at 10° GEMINI. Her femininity and
drive for psycho-sexual fulfillment would best be aroused by
the masculinity of a person whose Moon is at 04/16° GEMINI
or SAGITTARIUS.
This relationship could yield a high degree of
psychological compatibility and powerful mutual attraction.
The physical and psychological reality of ROSE's femininity
will exert a magnetic pull over the sensitivity,
receptivity, tenderness, and other masculine qualities of
her partner.
ROSE's Moon is located at 12° CANCER. Her ideal match is
a partner with the Sun at 06/18° CANCER or CAPRICORN.
This type of partner would be particularly well-matched
to her underlying psychic and unconscious aspirations. The
secret ideal this person cherishes of the perfect masculine
partner would be aroused; it would harmonize beautifully
with ROSE's ideal imaginary man. This great psychic
compatibility is the result of a harmonious relationship
between the Moon of the masculine chart and the Sun of the
feminine one. It is propitious to a rich flow of energies
between the most hidden and secret parts of both people.
They are linked by an unconscious emotional bond.
ROSE's Planet Venus is located at 05° GEMINI. Her ideal
match is a partner with Mars at 0/10° GEMINI or
SAGITTARIUS.
This type of partner would complement her perfectly in
emotional and sentimental terms. This person would reflect
and fulfill ROSE's ideal of masculine sensuality to the
greatest degree. Moreover, his ideal imaginary female
partner would resonate lastingly with ROSE's own psychic
projections of her masculine ideal. This positive
relationship between the unconscious sexual yearnings of
both partners would be likely to yield sensual relations of
a tantalizingly mysterious and secret nature.
Because she has a taste for the game of seduction, ROSE may
go from conquest to conquest, until she finally becomes
dissatisfied with her unstable love life and makes a more
definitive choice. In this case, she would be wise to choose
this type of man. Brilliant, witty, and amusing, he will
sparkle with the excitement she needs. His instability,
unpredictability, and secret vulnerability will delight her.
The intellectual exchange and communication between the two
will be rich and fulfilling.
ROSE's Planet Mars is located at 08° LEO. Her ideal
match is a partner with Venus at 02/14° LEO or AQUARIUS.
This type of partner would be especially well-suited to
her physical and sensual urges. Her sexual longings,
desires, and passion would harmonize beautifully with this
person's masculinity and receptivity. His eyes, his lips,
his skin, his hair... everything about him would arouse her
ardor and sharpen her desire. This type of planetary
relationship is favorable to true mutual fulfillment of a
stable, physical bond.
