September 25 people are complex individuals whose primary personal characteristics can be somewhat contradictory. Their sympathetic and empathetic qualities lead them to identify with others, while their keen perception and independence of mind may cause them to stand apart from the crowd, noting and criticizing everything they observe. Ultimately, however, those born on this day often have noble aims, although their methods may not always make this clear.
People born on this day usually enjoy exploring their intellectual interests, be they scientific theories, modes of artistic expression, or societal structures and conventions, as well as sharing their knowledge with a wider audience. And because these are honest people who are not afraid of articulating the truth—however uncomfortable—and who possess an innate sense of natural justice, they have the potential to make effec- tive political and social campaigners, although many may choose to communicate their ideas by means of journalism or artistic media.
In many respects their humanitarian orientation generally assumes a rather abstract form (especially if they are men), a tendency which, when combined with their need for personal autonomy of thought and action, may cause difficulties within their interper- sonal relationships. For despite their genuine affection for those closest to them, and their relish for the com- forts of domestic life, their judgemental propensities and need for independence may result in emotional isolation.
