Friendly and understanding, with a sixth sense, you are a receptive Leo with strong character. Creative, with a thirst for knowledge and a strong need to explore, you are endowed with an imaginative and curious mind. You have a need to express yourself in thoughts and words or to initiate new ideas.
A determined and progressive thinker, you seek mental stimulation and recognize good ideas when you come across them. Quick on the uptake, you rarely miss an opportunity to keep up with the latest information and are usually a collector of books, magazines, or computer technology.
The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Leo, indicates that you possess a lively personality, with charm and good looks. Being friendly, you enjoy intimate conversations and the personal touch. Nevertheless, you are often an extremist by nature and need to learn how to balance the generous side of your nature with a tendency to be overly sensitive, insecure, or stubborn.
Since you are social and gregarious, with forceful speech, you like to deal with the public at large and are good at diplomacy and public relations. When inspired, whatever you do, you usually start with great enthusiasm but not always enough preparation. This tendency can explain why you are inclined to get bored easily or lose heart, and suggests that having too many interests can distract your otherwise focused mind.
Being intuitive and practical, you are a productive idealist, and with your enthusiastic personality, erudition, and fertile imagination can produce impressive original thought. You may, however, need to learn how to turn your wonderful ideas into tangible concepts.
After the age of twenty-six, when your progressed Sun enters Virgo, you start to become less dominant as you center your attention on becoming more analytical, practical, and reflective.

From the age of fifty-six, when your progressed Sun moves into Libra, there is a change of emphasis in your life, and you become more easygoing, adaptable, and diplomatic.

By having an astrological chart calculated, you can find the exact position of the planets on your date of birth. This will tell you which of the fixed stars listed in this book are relevant to you.
Although personally ambitious, you may find your greatest pleasure comes from sharing with others. As you can be both independent and codependent, you may need to balance the emotional extremes of your nature in order to establish close and deep relationships. It may be necessary for you to pay special attention to ensure that all your associations are on an equal give-and-take basis.
You can be warm, loving, and highly idealistic. This may take you to high points of emotional inspiration, whether through art, music, or spirituality. The contrast between these heights and the mundane world and people’s everyday personalities may sometimes cause inner tension. By spontaneously giving without expecting people to do things your way, you can avoid disappointment.
With your quick intelligence, exceptional memory, and leadership abilities, you can make a valuable contribution in almost any career. Given your attraction to people-related occupations and activities, you may excel as a salesperson, trainer, propagandist, or agent, or in public relations. Equally, you can excel as a writer, teacher, or administrator. If in business, you will probably want to direct the show, so you need to be self-employed or in a management position. Sharing your expertise can extend to being a lawyer or counselor, and you may find yourself working for a cause. Alternatively, you can also be attracted to careers that involve your appreciation of color, beauty and form, or music.
Famous people who share your birthday include country singer Bobbie Gentry, singer/actress Maureen McGovern, and poet Hilaire Belloc.

Soul mates:Dec. 29
Those born on this day are blessed with prodigious energy, passion and commitment, as well as highly developed practical and organizational skills—a formi- dably effective combination of characteristics that July 27 people utilize to the full. These are dynamic indi- viduals who rarely do things by halves, throwing them- selves into the active pursuit of their professional and private visions with single-minded determination and dedication, fueled by the desire to make tangible prog- ress. Although their choice of career clearly depends upon their individual preferences, most will thrive in any profession in which they can work directly toward the achievement of their goals, supervising a well-or- dered team and implementing their soundly consid- ered promotional strategies in the process. Such incli- nations and talents augur particularly well for their success as corporate players, but their natural flamboy- ance and creativity, adventurousness and vigor further- more equip these individuals with outstanding artistic potential—and especially so if they were also born in the Chinese year of the dragon.
Within the domestic sphere, those born on July 27 will usually assume the role of the familial linch pin around whom others revolve. Typically extraordinarily affectionate toward their nearest and dearest, they do their utmost to safeguard the well-being and happiness of those closest to them—particularly their children— while at the same time injecting an enlivening sense of fun into their relationships. It is important, however, that they should judiciously moderate their desire to exert their benevolent influence over those to whom they are most strongly attached, and allow them to make, and thus learn from, their own mistakes.
