The combination of their natural predilection for taking action and their keen interest in promoting the welfare of those around them (a concern that often takes a more abstract, humanitarian form) endows those born on this day with real leadership potential. Incisive and progressive thinkers, November 2 people can identify the faults and flaws in various situations and devise solutions. Despite their willingness to adopt a combative stance if they believe that confrontation is the only available option—a policy that applies particularly when they defend humanitarian or ideological issues—their personal charm and benevolent intentions usually elicit an affectionate, if not always acquiescent, reaction from others.
Their strong and positive orientation toward other people, as well as their undoubted interpersonal talents, equip those born on this day admirably for careers as politicians or social campaigners, although some may be drawn to pursuing such artistic modes of expression as acting as a means of exerting their influence over a wider audience.
Their goodwill and desire to assist others to advance is evident in all areas of their lives, and generally makes November 2 people popular fig- ures. Their irresistible urge to offer even unsolicited advice and support and innate belief that their view- points are morally correct may, however, cause them to unwittingly arouse the resentment of those who would prefer to be allowed to forge their own path through life, especially their nearest and dearest.
