It may seem paradoxical, in the opinion of those who do not know April 13 people well, that these solitary, strong-willed and silent types are totally geared toward moving humankind forward. And, indeed, it is through their work that these essentially private and rather introverted individuals connect with the world, sometimes even making their indelible mark on history. Yet their external orientation is not as contradictory as it might appear at first sight, for when one considers their intellectual curiosity, their power of penetrating thought, their methodical approach, as well as their predilection toward progressive ideals, it is logical that they should employ their prodigious talents in projects for the benefit of humanity. Professionally, success beckons from a diversity of areas—politics, the judiciary and military, scientific research, and also such artistic spheres as music, literature and drama, in which they can translate their frequently radical visions into reality. They are skeptical of conventional truths, and there- fore feel compelled to seek out their own interpretations and solutions to social issues. Their quest may inevita- bly, however, either baffle or alienate less intellectually adventurous souls, who may respond to their ideas with incomprehension or derision. And, since they are deeply sensitive to the opinions of others, they will thus expe- rience personal hurt, while nevertheless refusing to be deflected from the pursuance of their chosen course of action—particularly if they were also born in the Chi- nese year of the ox. Should they be fortunate enough to enjoy the understanding of friends and family, they will derive great comfort and encouragement from the sup- port of those who know them best, and will reciprocate many times over.
