Control is vitally important to February 2 people, who need to feel in command of a given situation, of their emotions, as well as of their image and how others perceive them. There are many possible reasons for this fundamental necessity, including a wish to hide perceived weakness, a yearning to attain perfection, or, perhaps, a genuine desire for domination.
The uncompromising people born on February 2 will frequently cultivate a suave exterior or a coldly logical approach—whatever the personal implica- tions of such a stance—and may terrify others by the apparently unattainable level of their demands. Yet it must be remembered that, despite their tough image, these people aspire to the approval and admiration of their peers for their outstanding qualities, which are, indeed, considerable.
People born on this day possess the talent to ana- lyze a problem with crystal clarity, weigh alterna- tive courses of action dispassionately, and strive to achieve their objectives with single-minded determi- nation. They revel in competition: when not climb- ing their way to the top of the corporate tree—and they usually excel in the business sphere, especially in sales—they will often be winners in the sporting field, or in politics.
Unfortunately, particularly if they are male, their preferred tactics may be less welcome in more inti- mate relationships, where, in spite of their willingness to offer instant and practical advice, their reluctance to appear vulnerable may be seen as a hurtful lack of interest.
