Stepping stones

Since it is the season of harvest, of retrospective...

Birth Right
You draw your strengths from the symbolic 1. Grounded to the earth, the 1 stretches to the heavens. You shine bright with this birthright of leadership, initiative, independence and individuality. You are driven and capable, creative and perceptive. You are decisive.

You can enhance the positive aspects of your birthright by trusting your instincts. Be aware of your negative side: You can be bossy, impatient and intimidating.

Careers that you will excel in allow you to use your motivation and ambition as well as your innovation. Consider opportunities in: design and illustration, writing and speaking, medicine/surgery, self-employment.

Talent
Your talent is your knack for self-expression. You can draw on this and express yourself through any creative media (acting, music, dance or writing).

Consider playing to your strength while indulging your playful side. Channel your inner joy toward something innovative and you will attract opportunities for love, romance and business.

Hint: Combine your imagination and creativity with your birthright's ideal career and you will have fun all the way to the top!

Heart's Desire
Your inner person is understanding and generous. You are loyal and have a strong sense of right and wrong. An idealist, you enjoy creating beauty in your surroundings for yourself and others to enjoy.

You love powerfully, deeply and sometimes possessively (something to watch); you demand to be loved as deeply as you can love. You are also optimistic and nurturing in all relationships; you enjoy helping and serving your family and others you care about.

How to be true to yourself: Create a peaceful and loving home environment. Bring elements of nature into your decor to make it more serene. Invite others into your world to enjoy it with you.

Personality
People perceive you as an absentminded-professor type. When they first meet you, they are drawn to your wisdom and ability to share knowledge. You radiate intelligence but a little disorganization as well. Your preference is comfy clothing; you're probably not concerned with the latest fashion trends. That's OK: Choose fabrics that feel good on you - just be sure they flatter your figure too. You can look stylish on your own terms.
