People born on August 3 are fiercely energetic people primarily driven by their constant need for excitement, the stimulation from testing themselves against a variety of challenges, their desire to receive the admiration and respect of others, and last, but by no means least, their wish to cast themselves in the role of the heroic rescuer.
Their adventurous compulsion and heroic instinct to protect and rescue others can lead them to act impulsively and dangerously, but can also help them seize opportunities while others stand back and hesitate. They tend to believe that their ability to overcome risk and uncertainty gives them the right to get involved in other people’s problems and offer their help, support and judgments. This is not always the case. Although friends and colleagues value their loyalty, and their willingness to throw themselves in and help out, they may tire of their constant need to give advice. These people need to learn to back off, allowing others the freedom to make and learn from their own mistakes.
Another danger for people born on this day is their susceptibility to flattery and praise, as this can lead them to an over-inflated sense of their own worth, isolating them both from others and from reality. From the age of nineteen there is an increasing desire for practical order, analysis and efficiency in their lives, and some may find that their urge to seek out danger for danger’s sake eases somewhat over the years. From the age of forty-nine there is a change of emphasis in their lives when relationships and creativity are likely to take center stage.
Whatever age they are, however, they will always fantasize about rescuing or inspiring others with their heroics; if they can learn to seek a balance between their fantasies and reality—so that they don’t endanger themselves for no reason or rescue others who don’t actually want rescuing—their sudden flashes of insight and outstanding displays of courage can, like the heroes that they are, both impress and inspire others.
☆ On the dark side：Interfering, self-important, reckless
☆ At your best：Loyal, adventurous, idealistic
Those born on August 3 are attracted to danger in one form or another. Their quest usually involves placing themselves in harm's way or rescuing others from harm.
Their goal may also be to reveal the truth as they see it, regardless of risk. Too often it is the risk itself rather than the truth that is of most importance to them. Those born on this day must beware of endangering others through their activities.
Averse to mundane experience, August 3 people often seek excitement far from home. Some indeed venture to the ends of the earth, while others summon the thrills of the imagination from the comfort of their easy chair. Less highly evolved August 3 people are stimulated by the excitement engendered by others, and live vicariously. More highly evolved August 3 people not only generate or experience excitement first-hand but also put it to work creatively or professionally.
August 3 people may be at great risk of injuring themselves. Usually no amount of persuasion from worried family or friends can deter them from their fascination for conflict and risk. Some look on daring exploits as a test of the highest order, in which failing grades are tantamount to destruction. Others are addicted to instability and feed off peril as if it were food. Perhaps the most difficult to dissuade are those fighting for a cause or defending an ideal. In this case, their activities assume a romantic or idealistic cast, although the nature of their actions are more likely pragmatic and even cold-blooded if necessary.
For some born on this day, the notion of rescue also holds a central fascination, perhaps manifested in their wish to physically rescue or protect someone, or in bringing them psychologically or spiritually to a safer, healthier place. The rescue of Euridyce by Orpheus or the Israeli raid on Entebbe in Uganda are the sorts of stories that can capture the imagination of August 3 people. Perceiving themselves as heroes or heroines is important to them, whether it be in the role of adored parent, knight in shining armor or Joan of Arc martyr.
August 3 people must beware of losing control over their egos. In addition, they may mistakenly invest others with their own emotions or desires; for instance, those they wish to save may in reality have little interest in being saved by them. A final danger is that the thrill of their adventures will wear off unless the stakes are raised again and again, like a drug high that can only be obtained by upping the dosage. Thus the addictive nature of their persistent search for excitement becomes, in many but certainly not all cases, alarmingly clear. Being able to harness such daring to productive ends will be a measure of their maturity and evolutionary growth.
Power Thought：Perhaps the person most in need of rescuing is me，As with tigers, the female of the human species is also a capable hunter
Those born on the 3rd day of the month are ruled by the number 3 and by the planet Jupiter. Those ruled by the number 3 generally seek to rise to the highest position in their particular sphere, and have a love of independence, qualities further enhanced in the fiery Leos born on August 3- Jupiter lends an optimistic and expansive social outlook to August 3 people (given added energy by the Sun. Leo's ruler), and therefore underlines the above-mentioned self-confidence and positive orientation.
The 3rd card of the Major Arcana is The Empress, symbolizing creative intelligence. She is the perfect woman, the ultra-feminine, Mother Earth nurturer, who is our dreams made real, our hopes and aspirations embodied. Her steadfast qualities should serve as a positive example of stability for August 3 people. This card represents positive traits of charm, grace and unconditional love, and negative traits of vanity and affectation, as well as intolerance for imperfection.
☆Luck maker：(Slow down and be yourself)Concentrate on your sense of existing rather than throwing yourself into the action. You will then experience your true self, where all wisdom and good fortune lie.
You’re drawn to people born on November 23 to December 21：You both share a passion for adventure and excitement, and this relationship will be full of creative fire and passion.
People born on August 3 have passionate, strong desires and their love of risk-taking makes them appear popular and attractive to others, although they can become too domineering. Loyal and loving, they prefer relationships that give them the space to feel independent and are attracted to people with the same purposeful, high-minded and direct approach to life.
It’s no surprise that people born on this day are prone to accidents, injuries and stress-related illness of all kinds. It’s important for them to be more cautious with their body, especially as the one thing they hate is being limited by poor health. Dedicating time to calm their mind and center themselves will be particularly beneficial; meditation techniques are highly recommended. As far as diet is concerned, they have a tendency to bolt down their food and not to think about its quality, so putting their knife and fork down between mouthfuls and reading food labels will boost their digestion and increase their intake of nutrients. Mild exercise to calm their mind and tone their body, such as walking, swimming and trampoline, is recommended, as are yoga and tai chi. Wearing, meditating on and surrounding themselves with the color blue will encourage them to be more calm, cool and objective.
There is an obvious danger that August 3 people will experience accidents and physical injuries of various kinds. Many show a distressing lack of concern for their own safety, and frequently suffer from pulled muscles, cuts and bruises, even broken bones. Typical Leo heart problems are rarely a problem here, but difficulties with the muscles, bones and ligaments of the back are. The adventuresomeness of August 3 people leads them to hot, spicy and exoticfoods of all types. As cooks those born on this day display imagination and flair, but perhaps could pay a bit more attention to nutritional balance and calorie content.
The personal bravery and single-minded determination with which these people are blessed suggest that they may make great commercial entrepreneurs. They may also excel in careers where courage is essential, such as the emergency services. Other careers that might appeal include sales, promotion, negotiation, acting, directing, and scriptwriting. Their personal ambition and energetic personality will, however, take them to the top in almost any career, where they are likely to assume management positions.
The life path of people born on this day is to learn to subordinate their ego to the real needs of the situation or person they are dealing with. Once they have found a balance between their own desires and those of others, their destiny is to be courageous, selfless and inspiring pioneers.
Investigate carefully whether the poor victim really wants to be rescued. Beware of endangering yourself and others for no good reason. Don't dream your life away in idle, exciting fantasies.Seek an ideal of balanced, determined strength.
