Who you are

Calm on the outside, but there's a definite conviction in there. You respond easily to people and to stories, and when something feels genuinely right, you don't back off as easily as people expect.

Where you're strong

• ·Recognizes sincerity
• ·Rich imagination
• ·Holds to values

At work

A job that matches something you believe in can keep you going for years. Tasks that feel pointless do the opposite, and you may put them off until the last day. You can write, design, or counsel well because you imagine how someone else feels. Harsh feedback in front of the group can shut you down for the rest of the day.

With people

You want to be understood deeply. A small remark can stay with you for a long time.

In love

You may fall for the person you picture as much as the person in front of you. In the first weeks you write long messages and think about them constantly. When real habits show up, like lateness or a messy room, it can feel like a letdown. That dip is common and does not mean you chose wrong.

Under stress

Being asked to sell a product you think is poor, or to defend a rule you find unfair, hits you hard. The first sign is a list in your head of everything wrong with your work, your home and yourself. Cheerful advice like 'look on the bright side' only makes that list longer. The one thing that works is a friend who hears the whole story without trying to fix it.

Watch out for

The gap between the ideal and the real can wear you out. Starting imperfectly helps more than waiting.
