Mentally, you are disorganized, emotionally unstable and socially unbalanced. You are extravagant, generous, helpful and simple at heart. You crave social contact and the assurance that other people need you. You are also subject to contradictory thoughts and actions. You are fond of justice and law, but easily irritated. Your friends and benefactors tend to be well positioned individuals, but you can also associate with dishonest people who, unfortunately, might stick with you for years. Physically you appear strong and healthy, but you may secretly suffer from diseases relating to the loins and kidneys, and should take precaution against urinary tract infections. You may have a strong desire for artistic achievement, but fail to actualize it. Saturn is a very powerful planet for you. Jupiter is not very good. You are fond of helping the lowly, and so much so that you may use base acts to achieve your goals. You respect spiritual leaders, because they respect principle centered persons, but you are often too driven to stick strictly to principles yourself, but would rather see to it that the objective gets carried out.
