Logical thinker
Your birthday suggests that you are creative and ambitious, possessing a dynamic emotional power and an attractive personality. Youthful and sociable, you prefer companionship to solitude. Although idealistic, you can be very aware of material considerations and usually have a good business sense.
With the added influence of your decanate ruler, Leo, you enjoy entertaining others and have a love of grandeur. Proud and dramatic, you project self-assurance and have a royal air about you. With the ability to shine in a crowd, you are warm-hearted and friendly. However, you may have to be careful that your strong ego does not lead you to become arrogant or temperamental.
A need for self-expression may lead you to creative outlets such as writing, drama, art, or music, and with your natural leadership you would enjoy being at the forefront of your crowd. Confident and courageous, you are usually willing to take risks and are capable of magnanimous gestures. In your desire for luxury, you may have to be careful of being overindulgent or extravagant. Nevertheless, confident and dignified, you can be highly entertaining and an excellent friend.
After the age of twenty-three, when your progressed Sun moves into Virgo for thirty years, there is an increasing need for practical order in your everyday existence. You will be more inclined to analyze things and look for ways to restructure your life so that it is generally healthier or more efficient. This continues until the age of fifty-three, when your progressed Sun enters Libra. As a turning point for you, this highlights the growing need for interaction with others and the importance of intimate relationships, creativity, and harmony.

North Asellus bestows vitality and vigor, creative talent, love of the arts, and unexpected gains. Although both North and South Asellus impart a caring nature and therefore indicate responsibility, North Asellus is known as the beneficial star and endows powers of attainment plus a charitable and generous outlook. This star also suggests that intolerance and aggressive mannerisms do not achieve the desired results.
Linked to your Sun’s degree, this star imparts a flair for dealing with the public, good social connections, and friends in influential positions. High preferment is indicated in education, especially philosophy and religion, or success in business and large corporations.
With your enhanced sensitivity, you can be broad-minded and sympathetic to the problems of others. This may lead to your helping them through being a good listener or advisor. Creative and entertaining, you have the gift of uplifting people’s spirits. An inner nobility bestows a natural grace and a freedom from limiting concepts.
With your heightened awareness, you may also be prone to go to extremes. On occasion, you can be overwhelmed or weighed down with an excess of feelings that can lead you to bury your sensitivities in feeling sorry for yourself or escaping. By concentrating on the needs of your own ego, you may become conceited or too self-involved and forget your high calling. When expressing your star quality, however, you bounce back from worry or misfortune to radiate love and warmth to your many admirers.
With your natural authority and ability to deal with people, you should ideally be in a leading position or in an occupation where you are given much freedom to do things your way. A natural diplomacy may lead you to vocations such as public relations or customer service, and your people skills can help you succeed in promotion or publishing. You can be especially good at businesses that involve socializing, such as clubs or restaurants, and as you enjoy entertaining, you may be attracted to show business or the music industry. This birthdate can also involve an attraction for large-scale manufacturing.
Famous people who share your birthday include singer Kate Bush, auto manufacturer Henry Ford, actor Arnold Schwarzenegger, writer, Emily Brontë, British athlete Daley Thompson, sculptor Henry Moore, director Peter Bogdanovich, and U.S. politician Patricia Schroeder.

With a number 30 birthday, you enjoy the good life and can be exceptionally charismatic and outgoing. Since you possess strong feelings, being in love or contented is a vital requirement.

Among those with number 30 birthdays, many will find recognition or fame, especially musicians, actors, and entertainers. The subinfluence of the number 7 month indicates that although you may appear confident, you can be shy or secretive and hide your opinions. Original and intuitive, you benefit from being multitalented. By avoiding worry and inner lack of trust, you can free your deeper feelings. If doubting or skeptical, you may miss the opportunity to develop your inner gifts.

•Negative:lazy, obstinate, erratic, impatient, insecure, indifferent, scatters energy
With your ability to be warm and entertaining, you are sure to have an active social life. A compelling need for love will probably draw you into all kinds of romantic relationships, some of which can prove to be more trouble than they are worth. Since you are so idealistic in affairs of the heart, you may need to work on being detached. By staying light-hearted you do not become overly serious or disappointed if your loved ones do not live up to your expectations. You can, however, be very universal in your love and extremely generous to those you hold dear.

Those born on July 30 are firmly rooted in the physical world, their ambitions being primarily concerned with gaining personal status and mon- etary resources, or with making tangible progress of any kind, and their approach is typically of the extremely energetic variety. These individuals are blessed with the ability to think in a logical, linear fashion, and because they have a heightened sense of awareness of their surroundings, or of the inher- ent components of a proposal under consideration, they have the capacity to assess a situation astutely and devise a comprehensive strategy in response. They will then implement their plan with remark- able fixity of purpose and tenacity, utilizing their considerable organizational skills and gift for direct- ing others in the process. Within their personal lives, too, they typically conduct their relationships with steadfast equanimity, displaying a profound concern for the physical and emotional well-being of their friends and family.
Their practical and interpersonal talents, when also combined with their strong goal orientation, equip July 30 people especially well for potentially glittering cor- porate careers in the financial and commercial realm, as well as for fame and acclaim in the sporting arena. Their highly developed sensuality also augurs well for their success as artists—painters, musicians, writers or actors, for example—although the majority of those born on this day will instead settle for surrounding themselves with objects of beauty (which, given their financial acumen, may often also represent lucrative investments).
