Breathes of life of gathering gloom"
(from We Three Kings by J. H. Hopkins)
PERSONALITY:
+Hidden depth, maturing through hardship.
+ Sincere, imaginative, optimistic, warm, inviting. Surrounded by people asking their favors and opinions.
+Enjoy expressing themselves, masters of body language, in getting their point across.
+Do their own thing. May take decorating to the extreme…minimal or over-done.
+Extraordinary memory…not only words, but actions and expressions.
+Can adopt different looks and behavior patterns…stimulating and enjoyable people.
+Tolerant, accepting, non-judgmental, passionate in whatever they do.
+They are the ones to have around after a difficult birth, shock, or fear. Leaders bearing heavy responsibility.
-If negative, can be uncooperative, sulky, vulnerable to criticism. May become almost child-like in the sense they have no confidence or self-esteem.
