In many ways you live through your ancestors – or is that they live through you? Whichever way round it is, there is an especial relationship between yourself and the past, particularly those elements which have a bearing on your own religious or racial complexion. This in turn makes you bound to your family and, in many ways, it is they who form the centre around which your life pivots. You don’t like to see too many changes in this sphere: departures and marriages upset you. On the other hand, you’re thrilled by births, for they further extend all that’s familiar and meaningful to you. You are, indeed, a fully paid up member of the clan!
When it comes to emotions you have two attitudes, these stem from two fears; a fear of not being able to express the way you feel and the fear of being completely overwhelmed by emotion to the point where you may not be in control of your actions. As they say in Buddhism, the answer lies in the middle way, by taking the path that is central from both of the two extremes.
You are protective and persevering and you worry over loved ones. You can be moody, fearful and insecure perhaps because you feel unloved, probably by one or both parents. These feelings may bring on within you feelings of inadequacy toward your own ability to be a parent. As a parent you may be very demanding and a strict disciplinarian to your children. Emotional depression is something you need to conquer. Your unconscious fear of being hurt by others can cause you to withdraw from too close an emotional involvement with others. You are kind, but may lack empathy. You can be so busy protecting yourself from hurts that you are unable to see the hurts of others. There is a tendency for improper digestion due to the lack of certain digestive juices in the stomach. It would be best if you did not drink liquids with your meals (except milk, which is a food). There is a need to curb the appetite, as it can get you into trouble. Land and property may give you emotional security and alleviate feelings of not having something to fall back on.
