Perhaps the primary characteristics manifested by November 13 people are their interest in people and their strong wills, qualities that inform their predilection for observing and opining the mores and workings of human society. Indeed, in many respects those born on this day could be compared to chemists because of their ability to absorb all manner of data, subject it to rigorous analysis and process it before transmitting it into the public arena in a converted or crystallized configuration. With their heightened powers of perception, they have the enviable capacity to draw upon their intuitive as well as their objective talents when assessing the world or people around them, yet once they have arrived at their opinions after careful deliberation they will typically adhere to them with remarkable tenacity, even in the face of opposition. Just as their interest is aroused by virtually everything they encounter, so they may be found working in a variety of professions, although they may be especially drawn to scientific or technical pursuits, as well as to those concerned with informing or enlightening their peers—such as teachers, journalists, or even as spiritual or political leaders.
Such is their urge to exert their progressive influence over those around them that November 13 people will often gravitate toward leadership or pioneering roles: in turn, they are respected by others for their strength of conviction and charismatic presence. Although strongly socially oriented, they may overlook the more personal—though no less important—needs of their nearest and dearest in their quests to assist the wider human community to advance (a tendency that is even more pronounced in the men who share this birthday).
