The Dreamtime - Astrology / Numerology
http://www.thedreamtime.com
The interpretation of your astrology chart begins on the following page.
You will find that the interpretation of your chart is written in simple language, uncluttered by
astrological jargon. If a statement appears to contradict another statement, then you exhibit these opposite
qualities at different times in your life. For example, a statement that you are highly sociable and
gregarious and a statement that you prefer solitude seemingly contradict each other; this means that you
vacillate, and need both sociability and solitude at different times.
The astrological factor that the interpretation is based on is also given. The astrological factor is given
for the benefit of astrologers and students of astrology. If you are not a student of astrology, then
obviously the factor will not be meaningful to you, and you can ignore it.
If you find this interpretation of your birth chart interesting and informative, you might want to discuss
your birth chart with a professional astrologer to learn more about the astrological influences on your
life.

Chapter 1: General Characteristics
Your fundamental needs, values, and orientation towards life are symbolized by the four astrological
elements. Each person has their own unique balance of these four basic energies: fire (warmth,
inspiration, enthusiasm), earth (practicality, realism, material interests), air (social and intellectual
qualities), and water (emotional needs and feelings).
Your "elemental make-up" is described below. Remember that most people are "unbalanced" or
lopsided, and if you are lacking or deficient in a certain element (or elements), it simply means that you
need to consciously develop that aspect of yourself to learn to appreciate and/or to work harder in that
dimension of life.
Sometimes we overvalue the element that we are least endowed with, sensing it as a lack within
ourselves, but more often we neglect or ignore it. The qualities described below will be reiterated and
explained in more detail in the following chapters.
Your emotions and feelings rule you and you are easily influenced by your moods and by the feelings
of those around you. Because you are so sensitive to your environment, you need to be in an atmosphere
that is positive and relatively free of psychic garbage. Otherwise you absorb it and end up feeling badly
yourself. Highly sympathetic, you readily sense what others feel inside (whether they express it or not),
and this deep emotional rapport can be both a gift and a curse: you can get extremely close to those you
care for but you also feel other people's feelings so strongly that you identify their emotions or problems
as your own. Learning to discern the boundaries between yourself and others is important. Furthermore,
you need to respect these boundaries: other people may need more personal space and separateness than
you do. Your tendency is to want to merge with the ones you love, which can be interpreted as demanding
or smothering by people with less need for and capacity for emotional closeness than you possess.
Your sensitivity and compassion and imaginative faculties are highly developed, and you may find it
difficult to communicate all that you feel in logical, rational terms. Words seem inadequate, and the
language of touch or music or visual imagery may be much more natural to you.
Unless you have astrological energies that indicate otherwise, you are prone to be rather passive,
possibly lazy, and also quite sensual. Weight problems are very possible.
One of your primary challenges involves developing a stable sense of security, solidness, and a steady
rhythm in your life. Cultivating self-discipline, patience and endurance, and learning to accept realistic
limitations will enable you to be more productive and to actualize some of the ideas and creative impulses
you have. You are not always interested in practical applications, the actual work involved in realizing a
desire or compromises for the sake of practicalities.
You feel out of place in the world at times, restless, discontent, unable to find your niche, dissatisfied
with mundane reality. Positively this may spark your exploration of the creative, imaginative, or spiritual
side of life. However, you tend to resist growing up and learning how to effectively deal with adult
responsibility. You also tend to be either bound up with the past or projecting into the future, ignoring the
present moment - what actually is. To become more present and grounded, you may find the following
helpful: getting massages on a regular basis, doing gentle regular, rhythmic exercise like walking or yoga,
and eating substantial, heavy foods.
You tend to lack the ability to analyze yourself or your life in a detached, objective way. You feel and
experience but do not necessarily understand or reflect upon your experience, and thus find it hard to
communicate or talk about it. Really taking in what someone else has to say can be hard for you - you do
2
not readily adapt to new ideas or people, and as a result may become inflexible or limit your experience of
life. A broadening education and exposure to different cultures and types of people is very beneficial to
you. Otherwise you are apt to be rigid and even prejudiced against those outside your own circle.
(Arthritic conditions, poor flexibility, or poor circulation may reflect this).
You also tend to distrust people who are free with words or to feel inferior to those who are more
articulate and intellectual than yourself. You learn much more readily by watching, doing, or apprenticing
than by reading or by being told about something.

Chapter 2: How You Approach Life and How You Appear To Others
The following is a description of your basic stance towards life, the way others see you, the way you
come across, the face you show to the world. In Chapter 3 you will read about the "The Inner You: Your
Real Motivation", which describes the kind of person you are at heart and where your true priorities lie.
Read this chapter and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between them,
in which case "the inner you" may not shine through and others are in for some surprises when they get to
know you at a more than superficial level. This chapter describes the costume you wear, your role in life,
while Chapter 3 talks about the real person inside the costume.
You are very strong-willed and proud, but intensely private and not easy to know well. Behind your
quiet exterior lies a great deal of emotional depth, sensitivity, complexity, and also fierce determination.
When you want something you go after it rather quietly but insistently and wholeheartedly - and you
usually get it.
You are not a person who lives lightly or superficially. You want to live passionately and intensely and
are not averse to challenge, danger, or to facing the darker side of life - human pain and struggle. You
function well in crisis situations and often seek them out, for you enjoy the feeling of living at full
capacity.
You are very intuitive about other people and especially about their unspoken feelings and hidden
motives. You usually have strong, immediate gut reactions, either positive or negative, which prove to be
correct. You approach life very instinctively and are not always fully conscious of why you feel or act as
you do. You also have a very strong affinity with animals - an acute sensitivity and a nonverbal kind of
rapport with them.
In relation to others, you are rather cautious, sometimes even suspicious, until you get to know and trust
them - and trust doesn't come easily to you. When you commit yourself emotionally to someone, be it
friend or lover, you are intensely loyal and devoted to them and you also expect the same kind of
unwavering, undying loyalty in return. If you are ever betrayed by someone you care deeply for, you are
capable of hating and retaliating with as much fervor as you once loved. Nothing is done halfway. In fact,
you are intensely involved and often jealously attached to whatever you care about, be it person, idea, or
cause. There is definitely a streak of emotional fanaticism in you.
Because of your natural reserve, others may see you as something of an enigma. You are quite
3
self-protective and often defensive. You are also very magnetic, especially to members of the opposite
sex.
You have a penetrating intellect and a probing desire to uncover others' deeper motives or the hidden
truth about any matter. You are intense and totally disinterested in shallow conversation, and can make
some people uncomfortable. You often come across as a bit caustic or sarcastic, even when you do not
mean to.
You appear contained, and perhaps wary or mistrustful as well. You watch your step, and frequently
withdraw if your environment doesn't feel welcoming and safe. As a result, you may seem much more
conservative than you actually are. You fear making mistakes in social situations, and are extremely
sensitive to criticism or rejection. As you mature, you're likely to grow in confidence, because you'll learn
to depend more on your own evaluation of yourself.
You appear sympathetic and approachable. Because you use your feelings and intuition in assessing
people, others sense that you understand their feelings or their personal situations. At the same time you
really want people to know how you feel, and their care and support are very important to you.
You are cheerful, warm-hearted and social and strive for a pleasant life. You like to be seen in social
circles and are charitable to your fellow man. It makes you happy to be with others and you are very
sympathetic toward everyone.

Chapter 3: The Inner You: Your Real Motivation
Many of the traits discussed in the previous chapter are emphasized again below. Your intuition is
usually correct, but there are also times when you obstinately and passionately pursue your goal when a
more flexible attitude and open communication with others would benefit you greatly.
4
Quiet, deep, emotionally complex and intensely private, you are not a person who is easy to get to know
and understand. You are extremely sensitive but disinclined to show it, and you allow only a special few
into your inner world. Like a wary animal, you are cautious and mistrustful of those you do not know until
you "sniff them out". You are very, very instinctive and intuitive. You usually have a strong, immediate
gut reaction to people, even though you may be unable to clearly articulate why you feel as you do. Your
feelings and perceptions go deeper than words.
You also have a powerful need for deep emotional involvement and
you form very intense love bonds and attachments. You are possessive
and often jealous of anyone or anything that you perceive as a threat to
your bond with someone you love. When you commit yourself to
someone or something, you are wholeheartedly devoted and expect
complete loyalty in return. You merge with or "marry" the person you
love at a very deep level and therefore separations are extremely painful
for you, and often stormy and nasty. When you have been wounded, you
are not inclined to turn the other cheek and will retaliate if at all possible.
Certainly you will never forget the injury and often you harbor grievances and resentments for a long,
long time. Forgiveness doesn't come easily to you.
Whatever you do, you do with passion and fervor, and you often go to extremes. You are either hot or
cold, never lukewarm about anything. You can also be very narrow: either you are 100% involved in
something or else it doesn't exist for you at all. Rarely are you emotionally detached and objective. You
definitely have a fanatical streak. You are also immensely strong-willed and your tenacity in pursuing
your objectives often borders on being obsessive. Fierce pride, courage, and emotional strength are yours
in abundance.
You love mysteries and are deeply attracted to the hidden, dark, secret side of life. You never take
things at face value and are always probing beneath the surface of people and situations to discover what
is REALLY going on. You tend to be more of a cynic than an idealist.
You tend to get involved in the helping professions or in activities where your efforts are hidden,
behind the scenes, unacknowledged, or unknown to the public. Asserting yourself or getting up in front of
an audience may be exceedingly uncomfortable for you.
You are very receptive and sensitive but have a tendency to over-idealize, making your approach to
love, romance or marriage somewhat unrealistic. You also tend to be a bit absent-minded and naive,
leaving yourself open for being taken, swindled or lied to.
You depend a great deal on other people's reactions to you and rarely act until you see how you affect
others. You must learn to be direct and straightforward, rather than evasive or manipulative. You also
should learn to rely heavily on your hunches.

Chapter 4: Mental Interests and Abilities
You have good mental concentration and the ability to become
completely immersed in your work. You seem to know things at an
instinctive, nonverbal level and prefer learning through direct
experience or apprenticeship rather than vicariously via books or
lectures. You have mechanical ability and work well with your hands.
You could become adept at sculpture, pottery, carpentry, stained glass,
or anything that involves doing and making things manually. Biology
(and related fields such as medicine) interests you as well. You also
have an instinctive rapport with animals, and may feel you relate better
to them than to people! You tend to become narrowly focused upon your own specialized interests and
may not have much to say or communicate outside that field.
You don't speak up readily, even when you have a lot to say! Also, your mind tends to drift and you
find it difficult to study very factual material that doesn't have much color or imaginative appeal. Your
intuition and first impressions are likely to be quite accurate, however, and you tend to depend upon this
faculty in making decisions.
You would be an excellent teacher or counselor for you listen sympathetically, and encourage others to
express their inner thoughts and feelings. People trust and confide in you, and you are able to read
between the lines and to sense what their feelings are as well as what they are saying. You work well with
and understand women, and the emotional, feminine side of life. You are articulate on personal (rather
than factual or technical) subjects. Keeping a diary or journal would be satisfying for you. You also have
a talent for learning languages.
You appreciate aesthetics and have a fine sense of form, design, and beauty. You could develop
considerable technical skill as an artist, designer, craftsman, or creative writer. You could also sell objects
of beauty - artistic products, cosmetics, jewelry, etc.
You have the ability to please and harmonize well with others and tend to ameliorate relationships
between people. Your sense of humor, tact, and personal charm are of great benefit to you in any work
with people on a one-to-one level.
Although you are perceptive and attuned to the personal, human side of any issue (as described above),
you are also capable of considerable intellectual detachment and objectivity. You combine the qualities of
being subjective and intuitive with a rational, analytical approach. You have an introverted frame of mind
and you tend to dissect or deeply analyze your own and other people's inner lives and experiences.
You have an aptitude for solving difficult mental problems due to your careful, methodical approach,
attention to detail, and tenacity in following a matter through to its conclusion. You have good powers of
concentration and enjoy studying and thinking in solitude. You can get wrapped up entirely in your own
thoughts and completely engrossed in some small detail. You are slow and cautious, but extremely
thorough in your work. Conservative and something of a skeptic, you may be narrow-minded or closed to
any idea which has no concrete proof or scientific verification. You prefer dealing with facts rather than
abstract speculation. You may also be distrustful or fearful of anything you cannot understand with your
rational mind. You are well-suited to work in research or any field that requires careful study and
thought.

Chapter 5: Emotions: Moods, Feelings, Romance
Tenderhearted and sympathetic to an unusual degree, you have an
understanding of other people's feelings and needs which borders on
being telepathic. You are extremely compassionate and cannot bear to see
any fellow creature - be it human or animal -suffer. Because of your
kindness and nonjudgmental attitude, people in pain or confusion are
drawn to you for help, which you readily give. Sometimes your
softheartedness is taken advantage of.
You are a gentle, poetic soul and have a great love and affinity for
music. Because many of your feelings are nebulous and vague and you
cannot easily verbalize how you experience life, music seems a natural
language for you. You are also tremendously romantic and are often "in love with love".
You have strong attachments to your past, the place where you grew up, your heritage, and family
traditions. In fact, you may be unable to step out of the habits and roles you learned as a child. Your tie to
your mother is very strong and you also seek mothering and protection from your spouse and other family
members as well.
You can be hard to get close to. Subconsciously you may feel that too much closeness will interfere
with doing what you need to do and being your own person, so you put up subtle walls and distance
yourself when someone begins to want more of you than you can comfortably give. However, you may cut
off sources of emotional nourishment and support that way, and end up feeling alone and lonely. You
might even develop digestive problems. Overcoming your fears of intimacy, while at the same time
affirming and acting on your autonomous needs, is the challenge here.
In addition to your rather introverted, serious, or self-contained side, you have a wild streak and urge
for emotional freedom that breaks through erratically. You crave both stability and excitement, and the
conflict between these two impulses can make you rather tense and irritable. However, they can also
balance one another. Your more free and unpredictable side will now be described.
You crave excitement, change, and discovery, and cannot tolerate a routine or lifestyle that offers little
in the way of surprise or challenge. Excitable, spontaneous, and enthusiastic about anything new, you may
be perceived by others as being too impulsive, especially in personal relationships. It is not easy for you to
make or keep commitments, since you don't know how you will be feeling from one day to the next.
Emotional freedom is very important to you. Your domestic life can be very unstable -but you like it that
way.
You are not afraid to take chances and follow your ambitions with great determination and courage. A
bit impatient and quick tempered, you can be uncompromising at times. You also are quite hot-blooded
and passionate with a strong desire for marriage.
7
You tend to be a loner and are inclined to suppress your feelings. Other people think they know you,
but they never really do. At times you may withdraw too much and may alienate others. You also are
somewhat biased and may be torn by inner conflicts.
You seem to float above reality and have a very intense imagination. You like to daydream and are apt
to have many wishes and illusions that rarely have a chance to materialize. You are guided by your
feelings and seem to live in a world of your own.
In love, you desire a deep, intense, passionate union with your
beloved and form very strong emotional bonds and attachments. You
"marry" the person you love at a very deep emotional level, and are
often extremely possessive and jealous of any threat to that union. You
can be very demanding with your love partner. You tend to be
somewhat suspicious of even platonic, friendly relationships your
partner has. If you are ever betrayed, you are capable of hating with as
much force and intensity as you once loved. You are attracted to people
who have an aura of mystery about them.
You often hide your affection, or find your feelings difficult to express or get across to the person you
love. Being openly affectionate and trusting often doesn't seem safe to you. You may feel your love won't
be appreciated or reciprocated. You may get involved in secret love affairs or fall in love with a person
who is quite unavailable to you. Love and sacrifice often seem to go hand in hand for you - having to give
something up to be with the one you love, or having to relinquish some person or some aspect of an
important love relationship.
You are intensely amorous and attractive to the opposite sex, and are not inclined to friendly platonic
relationships. There is much tension in your love life - often because you put your desires ahead of your
partner's, and are impatient about having your love needs satisfied. The whole arena of love, romance, and
sex is endlessly fascinating for you and you are not happy without a love partner. You can "burn yourself
out" by pouring so much of your energy into romance.
You experience powerful, compelling emotional and sexual attractions, and you may feel that you have
little choice or control over your desires. You have an intense need for love and may be emotionally
greedy or insatiable. Your love life is passionate and often tumultuous and painful as well. Jealousy,
power struggles, or possessiveness can become areas of conflict in your relationships. Positively, you can
be unusually creative and bring about beneficial and healing changes in the lives of others, motivated by
your deeply felt love.
Your strong enthusiasm for life effects everyone around you. You have a sense of well-being, a
harmonious sex-life and you are likely to enjoy healthy and affectionate love relationships. You also have
a lot of creative ideas and could do well with some kind of craft projects.

Chapter 6: Drive and Ambition: How You Achieve Your Goals
You are proud and ambitious, and you strive to excel, to stand out and
be recognized for who and what you are. You have a very strong ego
drive and like to be Number One. You find it difficult to take orders from
others or to stay in the background, and you hate being wrong; you
always insist that you are right!
You are forceful, strong, energetic, determined, and highly
competitive. You play hard, you play to win, and you do not give up
easily. In fact, you see life as a competitive sport or performance. You
love admiration and applause, and you have a strong sense of personal
honor and integrity. You tend to be very self-confident, even arrogant.
Because of your belief in yourself, you are able to accomplish much, but if your confidence is ever
undermined, you become self-conscious, defensive, and rather belligerent.
You have passionate convictions and will fight for them when challenged. You are willing to dedicate
a great deal of your energy and force to an important cause, and you'll act decisively on your beliefs,
rather than simply espousing them.
Sometimes you get so involved and identified with your ideas that you cannot really be receptive to
anyone who opposes you philosophically.
Unlike some who have hopes and fantasies, you are a person who tries to live out these dreams, no
matter how impractical or fantastic they seem. You have a quixotic, idealistic streak. You may be more
inspired to work for some higher cause than simply for your own personal achievement.
When you want something, you go after it with passionate zeal and are sometimes so driven by your
desire that you lose all objectivity. You get so deeply involved in whatever you are pursuing that you
become one-sided, even fanatical. Strong-willed and stubborn, you insist on having your way no matter
the cost. You are fascinated with power. You often try to overpower anything or anyone you perceive as
an obstacle, if not physically then by the force of your will. You can be ruthless and impersonal when it
comes to achieving your ambitions and goals in life. You have enormous energy and are capable of
extraordinary effort and great achievement. You can also become a compulsive workaholic.
You have a strong desire for public attention and the need to be important. You want to be recognized
for your efforts and want to be in a leading role. You are willing to cooperate and enjoy team work as the
leader of a group.
You have grand aspirations and may be inordinately ambitious at times. That is, you're apt to be
discontent with small successes and to feel like a failure unless you achieve extraordinary things. Avoid
get-rich-quick schemes which promise tremendous returns for little energy expenditure. Even if they do
seem to succeed, your ideals and values could be compromised.
9
In your professional life you are apt to have a great deal of recognition and success. Early on in your
career, important and influential people in your field are apt to notice you and help you along. At some
point, you yourself are apt to be quite an influential person -- at least in your chosen line of endeavor. You
are headed for a leadership role.
You enjoy life, are original and like to be admired. You love to go out and are always looking for new
social contacts. It doesn't take you long to like someone and you are likely to have many adventurous love
affairs.

Chapter 7: Growth and Expansion: Areas That You Enjoy
Your strength lies in your ability to see the whole, rather than only
the parts which compose it. You have a deep need to explore the world
and to develop your own philosophy of life and sense of personal
meaning. You vacillate between being open-minded and tolerant of
differing views, and being dogmatic or overly zealous about your own
viewpoint.
You have an optimistic outlook on life and to others you appear jovial, confident, and expansive. You
do what you can to be encouraging and helpful to other people, and your generosity and lack of pettiness
makes you very well-liked.
Because you see yourself as a lucky person, you may feel that you can "get away with anything",
without negative consequences. You tend to go to excess and have little sense of moderation (or even
caution, at times).

Chapter 8: Areas That Challenge You Or Are Difficult For You
You are very self-conscious and have a great need for
ego-affirmation and praise. Expressing yourself freely, openly, and
unself-consciously is not easy for you. You tend to work hard at playing
and "having fun", rather than being light-hearted and spontaneous.
Developing self-love and self-acceptance regardless of your
"performance" is an important task for you.
Your attitude toward religion, philosophy, and politics is very conservative and possibly narrow or
rigid. On the one hand, you may believe in nothing that is speculative or intangible, requiring proof for
any idea presented to you. Each idea is thoroughly and systematically examined. On the other hand, you
may tenaciously cling to your grand philosophical or metaphysical beliefs and opinions, refusing to
modify them or to be open and receptive to others' insights and perspectives.
Your overall outlook on life is serious, and you may feel that life or God will punish you if you do not
watch your step!
You are suspicious of groups, crowds, and social organizations. You are quick to notice social games
and insincerities, and you avoid the limelight and glamour. You are direct and to the point in speech and
manner, stubborn and inflexible, and often unwilling to communicate your innermost feelings and
thoughts.
Basically shy, you may become a bit inhibited when talking with other people. You tend to withdraw
from others and like to live a humble, quiet live in seclusion. You may get involved with a group of a
secretive nature, although not one to join groups in general.
Around others you are somewhat humble and shy and prefer to be by yourself. You tend to limit your
contact with others and associate only with like-minded people. You are inclined to be cool and reserved
even toward those you love.
Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which you instinctively and habitually revert to when under
stress - a mostly unconscious process and one which you are apt to overdo because it is so familiar and
thus easy for you. The direction you need to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and
wholeness is also described.
You gain by becoming more aware of the rhythm of the seasons and the natural world, learning to slow
down and allow life to unfold in its own time. Nurturing a garden, a child, or some other living, growing
thing gives you a sense of inner balance.
You have a tendency to be deeply suspicious, to not take anything at face value, to see hidden agendas
and dark motives even where none exist! Life does not have to be conflict all the time... learn to accept
things as they are.
You also need to develop patience, peace and stability by grounding yourself in your daily work and
acting in a consistent and reliable way towards others.
The arena you are most likely to wrestle with these issues is in your marriage and other intimate,
one-to-one relationships. You may see the qualities you need to develop more fully (described above) in
11
your partner. It is important for you to recognize, appreciate, and listen to the people in your life who
express such attributes, as well as developing them yourself. Put energy and attention into learning about
others, and about yourself through others.
The specific habits which are likely to hold you back, or which you are prone to overdo, especially
during stressful periods, include:
Excessive thinking, rationalizing, talking, and overuse or misuse of your intellectual abilities, as well as
dissipating your energy in trivial activities.
Not at all selfish, you have the ability to share the joy you feel with other people. You seem to have a
gift for getting more reserved people to open up, teaching them how to give and receive love and
affection.

Chapter 9: Originality and Imagination
Areas Where You Are Creative, Unique, Unstable, or Compulsive
Your life is characterized by sudden disruptions and events which change the direction of your life
quite unexpectedly. You may be impatient and reckless at certain times, impulsively acting out your urge
for new life and change. You are an emotionally complex person and you are capable of intense,
unexpected outbursts of feelings and desires.
If you share material assets and resources with another person (as in a marriage or business
partnership), your fortunes are likely to fluctuate wildly or change quickly for better or worse.
You are idealistic in your social and political outlook, and your ideals may impel you to join clubs,
organizations, communities of like-minded people, or groups that share your vision and your concerns.
You have strong philosophical views and there are times in your life when you passionately crusade
for a cause that you deem noble and of utmost importance. Although your intentions are good, you are not
as objective as you think you are, and your views are more colored by personal experiences and concerns
than you realize. Nevertheless, you can also be instrumental in bringing about positive change if you can
avoid being dogmatic. Also, you may radically change or revise your own personal beliefs, even your
most cherished convictions, many times during your life.
You tend to be a bit shy and could have an unrealistic attitude about love. You are inclined to daydream
about an ideal love and could end up disappointed when you are forced to face reality.
12
You tend to be a bit pessimistic and may feel sort of helpless about your circumstances. This could be
the result of having your goals not planned very realistically. But at the same time you are inclined to
begrudge other people their good fortune.

In this chapter we will discuss characteristics and traits of your generation. Of course, you may not
share all of the characteristics of your generation, but you are greatly affected by the tone that is set by
your generation.
The first topic is "The Subconscious and Emotional Drive of Your Age Group". In this section we will
describe a deeply felt urge, even compulsion, of your age group. This deeply felt drive comes to the
surface with great force and power, and consequently leaves in its wake considerable upheaval and
change. The second topic is "The Ideals and Illusions of Your Age Group", that describes the dreams,
fantasies, and spiritual aspirations of your age group. The third and last topic is "What is New and
Different in Your Age Group", which describes areas in which your age group tends to be innovative,
inventive, unusual, and also where it may be unstable and unreliable.
The characteristics described below may affect a group of people for anywhere from a few years to
about 30 years. There are one or more different astrological factors described in each of the three sections
below.
The Subconscious and Emotional Drive of Your Age Group
You are part of a 20 year period that is often referred to as the "ME"
generation, a generation that has a very proud and self-reliant attitude.
You are a generation that is very concerned with self-development and
personal integrity. Women's rights and minority rights are issues that your
generation has fostered and they reflect your concern with individual
respect, integrity, and honor. Your age group has a deeply felt sense that
each person has an equal right and opportunity to fully develop his or her
inner potential.
However, your group also finds it difficult to be part of a team and a
strong egotism makes group efforts difficult; you tend to see the individual as more important than the
group. You also defy authority and often feel that no one has the right to tell you what to do. The strong
movement to refuse drafting into the military is one example of your age group's strong sense of
individual rights and freedom.

Your age group has popularized the idea of self-development, and has contributed a great deal to the
development of individual potential as well as human rights. However, there is also a tendency to be
rather self-centered; others may wonder how you can spend so much time developing yourselves and have
so little time to contribute to your families!
The interest in personal development also sometimes manifests as a fascination with particular
individuals and a great deal of hero worship. Every generation, of course, has lots of idols, but your
generation is particularly prone to needing a specific individual to represent and embody an idea or
feeling, and to serve as a focal point of interest. Perhaps the most extreme example of this is the concept
of the guru that was popularized by your age group.
The Ideals and Illusions of Your Age Group
You are part of a 14 year group of people who have a very idealistic
sense of brotherhood and universal cooperation, which, among other
things, fostered the peace and freedom movement. Your age group is
also interested in the spiritual philosophy and ideals of other cultures,
and is not at all dogmatic in its approach to religion. You incorporate
the approaches of other religions. Your age group tends to have an
eclectic approach to religion, utilizing elements from many religious
perspectives (e.g. Eastern and Western), and finds it difficult to follow
traditionally defined religious practices.
A gullibility and an unwillingness to be decisive and judgmental inclines your age group to be easily
deceived, and consequently many of the well-intended ideals and goals are frustrated by a lack of clear
purpose and direction.
The entire generation to which you belong has tremendous opportunities for spiritual rebirth and
awakening. This will not be forced upon you or precipitated by unavoidable events, rather it comes from
an inner yearning and a natural propensity to seek the depths.

What is New and Different in Your Age Group
You are part of a 7 year group of people who are progressive and
creative thinkers. Academic achievement is high and academic
standards are higher with your age group than with others. You are a
curious and inquisitive bunch, and many discoveries and clever insights
are brought forth from your age group. The love of learning never dies
with your age group, and your curiosity and inquisitiveness does not
wane in later life, as is common with others.
