Thoughtful introvert
Quick and down-to-earth, you are revealed by your Gemini birthday to be a shrewd, independent, and strong individual. An interesting combination of sensitive high ideals mixed with a practical desire for money and luxury indicates that you may vacillate between two extremes. On one hand, you desire an expensive and stylish home and a high lifestyle, and on the other hand, you are willing to sacrifice for your ideals. A solution to this may be to find a positive cause that also brings you financial rewards.
With the influence of Aquarius, ruler of your decanate, you are original and broad- minded, and you need freedom. Mentally sharp and receptive to new ideas, you are able to make split-second decisions and may have an interest in social reform. With a progressive view of life, you value knowledge, and travel may be one of your favorite pastimes.
At times you are extremely generous and kind with your loved ones. At other times you are likely to be rather domineering or overbearing. You may also need to avoid a tendency to be impatient or restless. If opposed, you obstinately adhere to your own principles from an innate rebelliousness rather than from real conviction.
Ideally you should be in a position where your courage and ability to think big can put you in the forefront as an initiator. Being naturally gregarious, you have an easy way with people and an excellent ability to spot opportunities. As long as you keep faith in yourself, your no-nonsense approach, original ideas, and intuition guarantee you success.
Family and security become more important in your life after the age of five, when your progressed Sun moves into Cancer. This also highlights your personal emotional needs. This continues until around the age of thirty-five, when your progressed Sun enters Leo. This will increase your confidence and strength and enable you to become more assertive and self-expressive. When you reach the age of sixty-five, your progressed Sun moves into Virgo, and you start to develop a more analytical approach by being reflective.

Your strong emotions usually motivate you to initiate many different involvements or pursuits. You sometimes throw caution to the winds, only to deal with the repercussions at a later date. Because you are constantly evaluating your own self-worth and the advantages to be gained from situations, nobody can bargain or make things happen as well as you. With your enthusiasm, willpower, and determination, you have the power to make your ideas reality. For this reason, it is important that you be sure of what you wish for.
The strength of your desire, when directed into selfless love and helping others, can be a remarkable power for good. When working with this outstanding force, you avoid dominating others with your strong will and can solve any possible concerns about money.
The combination of your relationship skills and determination enables you to cooperate with others in a dynamic and positive way. A natural wheeler-dealer and troubleshooter, you thrive on new beginnings or challenges, and in business have a knack for spotting opportunities. Since you can master the art of persuasion, with your enthusiasm you may often promote ideas, products, or other people. Courageous and committed, with executive abilities, you may pursue a career in commerce, such as negotiator or financial advisor.

Those born on June 16 combine within their characters an unusual blend of adventurousness and caution, qualities born on the one hand of their great imaginative and innovative inclinations, and on the other of their perspicacity and astuteness. This conjunction generally means that they will take short- term risks in the interest of achieving their longer- term goals, and their willingness to be flexible without losing their sense of purpose, is a strategy that has the potential to bring them success.
In the world of business, for example, the combi- nation of skills and talents in June 16 people may be manifested by backing an entrepreneurial endeavor with solid organizational support, or by judiciously speculating on the stock market to build a larger port- folio; while in the artistic and scientific realms it may be demonstrated by controlled experimentation. Yet despite the financial fruits that may be reaped by fol- lowing this approach, June 16 people are motivated more by a profound desire to bring about progress.
These are serious and somewhat introverted people, who derive comfort and satisfaction from such non- materialistic pleasures as strong emotional relation- ships, or the beauty inherent in nature and the arts. They typically abide by a strongly humanitarian eth- ical code, which endows them with genuine concern for other people—especially those in need of help— and a innate horror of abuses of power. Thus while they are remarkably loyal and steadfastly affectionate to those closest to them, they find it hard to tolerate cynical or inconsiderate behavior.
