Courteous diplomat
Your birthday suggests that you are practical yet sensitive, clever, friendly, and considerate. Enthusiastic and independent, you possess the ability to inspire others with your ideas and projects. Nevertheless, do not let frustration or disappointment spoil your big plans.
With the subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Virgo, you can be thorough, hardworking, methodical, and painstaking. As you possess a keen intellect, a desire for knowledge keeps you well informed. Although you carefully analyze situations, be wary of becoming too skeptical or constantly going over the same issues, causing worry and anxiety.
Naturally generous and a good psychologist, you can also be a person of extremes. At times you can be humanitarian and broad-minded and at others nervous and compulsive. Being a practical visionary, as well as resourceful, you prefer to be active rather than idle.
An inventive mind gives you quick responses and is particularly helpful when working in a team or partnership situation. Appearance is important, and you like to make a good impression. Enjoying the company of others, you can be warm and charming, with a sense of humor that can often get you out of a tight spot.
From childhood, you are likely to be constantly analyzing situations in order to improve them. However, when you reach the age of twenty, your progressed Sun moves into Libra, commencing a thirty-year period of increased emphasis on your partnerships and relating to others. This is a time when you may also have an increased sense of balance and harmony and may want to develop any creative potential you possess. Another turning point occurs at the age of fifty, when your progressed Sun moves into Scorpio, stimulating you to seek deeper meaning to your life and placing more emphasis on the power of transformation.

At times you are likely to experience a conflict between idealism and materialism.

It can, however, still be a challenge to live well without becoming either too extravagant or too economical. Possible fluctuations in finances may necessitate a long-term plan to manage your assets.
The more you build up your confidence and self-esteem, the more life has to offer you. It will be easier if you develop detachment from your restrictions. Travel, new explorations, sports, and exercise are particularly advantageous. These help channel any possible restlessness and impatience you may have into more positive outlets and stimulate your adventurous spirit.

The more practical side of your nature may find an outlet through banking, the stock market, or accountancy. As you may also possess analytical or technical skills, you may be attracted to a career in education, writing, or science. When your discrimination is combined with your compassion and desire to serve, you may be drawn to the healing professions or helping others.

The straightforward face that September 2 people present to the world is no façade: with those born on this day, what you see is what you get—a direct and focused personalized package of determination and energy. Such is their urgent desire to realize their ambitions as efficiently as possible that these individuals have no patience with subterfuge or prevarication, regarding game-playing or indecision as irritating obstacles on the path to success. And indeed, when obstructed in any way, these usually controlled people may explode with frustration, the uncharacteristically violent expression of their seething annoyance startling those who have not experienced it before. Yet despite such occasional flare-ups they are otherwise organized, practical and disciplined in the pursuit of their goals.
While the concerns and interest manifested by those born on this day may vary according to the individual, a common feature is their progressive nature and their wish to exert a beneficial influence on others—in the public services, perhaps, or as administrators.
These people are scrupulously fair in their dealings with others—a quality that results from their critical discernment and their empathy with those who are unhappy or the victims of perceived abuses. And in such instances, as in all their endeavors, their indepen- dence of thought and predilection for devising remedial strategies come to the fore. Yet in devoting themselves to resolving the problems of others, September 2 people may neglect their own needs. Furthermore, despite their profound—if understated—affection for those closest to them, unless they are in real trouble they may expect the same level of self-reliance to be demonstrated by their nearest and dearest as they exhibit themselves.
