Life Lessons
These people must not lose sight of the forest for the trees; they need to learn that all things are one and that they should become a bit more forceful and stubborn.
Positive Tendencies
These are naturally wise people. They work hard to be just, value harmony, and strive to nourish all the people around them. These people have amazing bursts of new energy; they separate the old and tired from the new and prospering, encourage fruitful new growth, push projects in the right direction, regulate and control their lives, and generally create a cooperative environment. Very peaceful and relaxed, these people work on steady evolutionary growth for all people. An excellent mediator, they are very in touch with their Yin and Yang, their inner male and female selves. This unleashes great potential wisdom and understanding. Good at counseling and healing, they are adept at balancing all sorts of feelings, emotions, and deeds. They can analyze things in detail and are able to separate things into their distinct components so as to later unite them in a productive manner. Whether working with people, paper work, ideas, or handiwork, these people have the gift of being able to weed out negative elements, reorganize the structure of something, and then renew and rebuild it so that it is better and more prosperous than it was. This can also apply to relationships, which they are great at constantly renewing and revitalizing. Contemplative and very open, these people are natural “alchemists” who, to make a long story short, can combine opposites into a harmonious whole.
Negative Tendencies
These people can get lost in analysis, dividing things up to the point of creating division instead of understanding. There is a possibility that deep understanding of duality can also lead to a kind of schizophrenia, a dividing instead of a uniting. At time open and peaceful to the point of obsequiousness, these individuals can be classic wimps, people who are limpid and lethargic with no real force. There is also a “holier than thou” attitude that may surface in these truly harmonious people; no one likes to be preached at, and any reforms or changes, no matter how necessary, can anger people when tact is ignored.

Life Lessons
These people need to simply do something (anything!) sometimes; they need to trust their intuition more and should seek out the strange and exciting things in life.
Positive Tendencies
Generally, these people are very balanced and persevere through all difficulties of life. They have the rare gift of being able to separate things clearly and distinctly. This means they can separate feelings, ideas, problems, and so on in order to clearly see the components of a given relationship or problem. This makes them excellent judges, very analytical as well as objective. These people may encounter many problems, but they try, and try again—persistent individuals. These are people of high moral character, people who give good advice. They never seeks the spotlight, refuse unnecessary praise or flattery, dislike scrutiny, and are naturally quiet, thoughtful, and reserved. Humble, these people don’t like a lot of glory. They may do much work without getting credit for it. They can approach things from many different angles. These people are very solitary in many ways and may have very different parts of their psyche pulling them in opposite directions, but this just means that they can be very empathic, really understanding people. These people work best alone; they are often very self-disciplined, and while they may not outwardly be very powerful, this is deceiving in that inwardly they are very intense individuals. These are very nice and sweet people, as well.
Negative Tendencies
At times these people can be of two minds, and this kind of paralysis can affect many aspects of their lives; the urge to do and the urge to not do are often at war. Such people can be stuffy, vindictive, stagnant, misunderstood, unproductive, blocked, and/or mistrusted. These thoughts of others may not be their fault, but they can be perceptions. These people often get overwhelmed by choices and so don’t do anything. They can sometimes be something of a nerd, a mild person who can be low-energy, maybe a little dull at times.
