People born on February 21 have a creative, individual mind and a dominating presence. They feel most comfortable when taking the lead and least comfortable when required to follow. Their fierce independence may be a result of a tough childhood where rules, regulations or expectations often took precedence over real intimacy.
People born on this day may spend many years trying out various occupations or roles, often feeling that they don’t quite fit in and occasionally reacting childishly as a form of rebellion. It is only when they understand that the key to their success is to be themselves and to lead and inspire others with their forceful presence that they truly come into their own. Fortunately, around the age of twenty-nine they tend to become more assertive and adventurous, and begin to enjoy greater self-awareness.
Although they may have developed a tough outer shell to protect them from the outside world, those who know them well will know that they can also be extremely sensitive, even shy. This sensitivity can in part explain their need to push themselves forward, as they may have suffered disappointments at the hands of others. It is important that they learn to be true to themselves—it is also important that they do not become too aggressive or cynical in the process, for their emotions lie at the center of their being and it is their sensitivity that can give them sudden flashes of inspiration.
People born on this day have great dreams, and once they learn to listen to their hearts as well as their heads and to respect the ideas of others there is little that can prevent them getting exactly what they want out of life. Wherever they go, others tend to regard them as a tower of strength and will often look to them for motivation and inspiration. This is because when they have settled on a chosen course they are a shining example of how it is possible to rise above challenges and criticism by respecting your own judgment.
☆ On the dark side：Immature, detached, inflexible
☆ At your best：Creative, influential, honest
Those born on February 21 struggle to express themselves on a personal level. Their early life can be largely tied up with themselves and with the internal difficulties they face. They may at first see these difficulties as originating with their environment but usually come to realize that their own highly complex natures are the real issue. But problems, of course, can be challenges and opportunities—to grow, to learn, to evolve. Most February 21 people fully accept this challenge to improve themselves and grow enormously as a result. By coming to terms with and perhaps overcoming their own emotional sensitivities they can realize a kind of self-awareness attained by few. They can also display remarkable insight into the emotions and motivations of others.
One of the highest attainments of February 21 people seems simple enough—intimacy. But for them to share themselves fully with another human being, to allow that person to see them as they really are without defenses, is perhaps the greatest gift they can give. Problems may arise when that special person ignores the gift, does not recognize its specialness or is not interested.
The resultant shock to these sensitive individuals can be devastating, and it can be a long time before they again dare to open themselves that way again.
It is difficult for the ego-oriented, feeling people born on this day to be objective about their work, since what they create seems indivisible from who they are. Therefore, negative criticism is particularly difficult for them to handle, since in their eyes criticism may amount to a personal attack. Particularly artists, craftspeople, entertainers and public servants born on this day have will have to toughen their skin if they wish to be successful in the world.
It is not uncommon for February 21 people to have had very difficult childhoods emotionally, with the focus of their problems on the parent of the opposite sex. As a result of either being overly supervised and minutely criticized or when attention was needed most, ignored, those born on this day may develop in the former case into unusually quiet, secretive individuals and in the latter into flamboyant and extroverted types. A healthy and contented love life may also be elusive, something they will search the world over to find. For some, a loving partner affirms their worth; for others, such a person can be a much needed confidant/e, one who is intimate with their most sensitive secrets. In either case, few individuals are forced to live more closely in touch with their inner world than February 21 individuals. For them to find emotional happiness and peace can be eminently satisfying, but generally involves an entire lifetime of growth and effort.
Power Thought：Whatever I decide is right for me，One side of the moon is always dark
Those born on the 21th day of the month are ruled by the number 3 (2+1=3), and by the expansive planet Jupiter. Those ruled by the number 3 tend to be highly ambitious, sometimes dictatorial. Jupiterian influenees make for an expansive attitude toward the world, but coupled with Neptune's power (as ruler of Pisces) good financial judgment may also be bestowed, as well as an idealistic and spiritual outlook.
The 21th card of the Major Arcana is The World, which depicts a goddess running while holding energy-giving rods. She surmounts the world and displays the truth; she has unlimited power. This card symbolizes all that is attainable on the earthly plane. Although reward and integrity are assured, traditionally the card can also indicate monumental obstacles and setbacks of fortune, as well as negative traits of distraction and self-pity, the last of which is particularly harmful to February 21 people.
☆Luck maker：(Act naturally)Lucky people never try to be something they are not, as this alienates others rather than getting them on your side. So be yourself and tell it like it is.
You’re drawn to people born on November 23 to December 21：You are both natural lovers and natural adventurers, and this can create an intense and fulfilling bond.
People born on this day need both freedom and commitment in a relationship. They love the thrill of the chase and will probably have numerous partners but a part of them also longs to feel safe in one committed relationship. They have powerful emotions and a sensitive heart with a lot of love to give; they long to be rescued by that special someone who can provide them with both excitement and stability.
February 21 people can be prone to mood swings and—if these aren’t properly handled—depression. It is extremely important for them to eat a healthy balanced diet, packed full of the mood-boosting nutrients found in oily fish, nuts, seeds, leafy green vegetables, legumes, and whole grains. They should avoid drugs, alcohol, nicotine, and any addictive or toxic substances. Plenty of exercise, preferably in the fresh air so they get the mood-boosting effects of daylight, is highly recommended as are breathing exercises, meditation or perhaps counseling if they find themselves unable to deal with feelings of anger, fear, guilt, or disappointment. Reading, wearing or meditating on the colors green and blue will help restore natural balance and healing.
Those born on February 21 are prone to internalize their problems and as a result can ultimately suffer from chronic internal ailments. On the psychological level those born on this day are prone to deep depressions. Therapy or psychological counseling may be of some help, but normally they have to pull out of it by reorienting themselves, unassisted. Keeping their diet on an even keel is important; however, emphasizing the most delicious and tantalizing recipes is often a good way for them to raise their spirits. Strong sexual attachments are par for the course for February 21 people, although not always beneficial to them. As far as physical exercise is concerned, only light to moderate activity is recommended, perhaps walking or swimming, for example.
People born on this day make great leaders and any career that allows them to motivate, inspire or lead others will appeal; for example, management, politics or teaching. They may also be drawn toward careers where they can make their own rules, such as music, arts and entertainment. They can also make especially good conductors. Often rather dexterous, they may also be interested in working with their hands, so careers in design, especially costume design, construction or building, may appeal.
The life path of people born on this day is to trust themselves to be able to take on board the advice of others. Once they are able to do that, their destiny is to motivate and inspire others by their own example to reach their full potential.
Develop your social side. Don't get so wrapped up in yourself. Get out more. Reach out to others; stay vital and connected.
