June 1 individuals possess the pronounced characteristic of mercurial inquisitiveness, which is manifested by their almost insatiable desire for intellectual stimulation and manifold interests. While their inherent curiosity endows them with a natural predilection for exploring abstract concepts and delving deeper in a truly innovative fashion, it may, however, equally prohibit them from concentrating on one topic alone.
Those born on this day have a remarkably low boredom threshold, as well as a horror of being sti- fled and stultified by petty details. These individuals are intrigued by human behavior, for observing other people and speculating about their characters and motivations provides them with an endless challenge. This orientation, when combined with an openness to change and progress, gives them the aptitude for such fields as marketing, advertising, the media and politics, or perhaps psychology or detective work.
Despite their almost compulsive interest in other people, however, those born on June 1 are often extremely private individuals, who guard their own personal lives jealously. It may be that they recognize the value of keeping the professional and domestic spheres in which they operate separate, or that they do not wish the personae that they have adopted with colleagues to be unmasked to reveal their “real” selves. Whether plagued by insecurity or not, they tend to resist committing themselves to a life partner, but once they are firmly enmeshed within bonds of fam- ily and friendship, these people typically enliven their personal liaisons, and make particularly affectionate and effective parents.
