March 4 people are typically self-contained individuals, whose rich imagination and profound sensitivity do not require the trigger of external stimuli. Those born on this day are fascinated by abstract concepts, and their compulsion to explore these further will be expressed with remarkable tenacity—indeed, sometimes to the exclusion of all else. Yet despite their twin intellectual talents of great concentration and inquisitiveness, these intuitive and humanitarian people are governed by their hearts rather than their heads and not only respond to their emotional impulses, but experience deeply empathetic feelings with regard to the problems of others. Therefore, although they may isolate themselves from the world when exploring an idea that absorbs their full attention, they are never completely unaware of the parallel world of reality.
These are gentle people, who abhor confrontation and will withdraw smartly within themselves at the first sign of discord. This tendency, combined with their other personal characteristics, means that they will be unhappy in competitive professional situa- tions, but will flourish when they can move within parameters set by themselves. Careers as artists, musicians and writers are especially well starred, but they may also make gifted teachers, whose infectious enthusiasm for their subject will inspire their pupils. Receiving the emotional support of friends and fam- ily members is vital to these people’s holistic well-be- ing, but they may involuntarily neglect the needs of those closest to them when their minds are in thrall to an impersonal interest.
