Your greatest challenge is ... not being cynical.

The way forward is ... to understand that the pessimistic approach to life is just as unrealistic and unreliable as the optimistic because it means you focus too much on one perspective.

You're drawn to people born on January 21 to February 19.

Although different in many ways, you share a love of communication and this can create a union of surprising compatibility.


Luck maker - Keep believing in yourself

Keep believing in yourself, especially in times of misfortune, as this will inspire others to believe in you also. In this way you attract the help that can turn misfortune around and bring good fortune your way.

Your birthday is of the descriptive artist.

People born on July 31st are eloquent observers of the human condition. They always seem to be researching or digging around for information, possessing the ability to share or describe people and situations with remarkable accuracy and insight.

Nothing seems to escape their attention, even their own faults, which they are quick to correct. Their communication skills are superb and their insightful observations are often laced with a keen sense of humor. Those less comfortable with social interaction may prefer to use the medium of writing, music art, or painting to make their contribution, but whether they become artists or not they often have a well developed esthetic sense, loving to surround themselves with beautiful objects and attractive people.

Their highly developed concern for exploring, describing and occasionally idolizing aspects of human existence, combined with their logical train of thought, tenacity and devotion to their work, suggest that these people can make significant contributions to the store of human knowledge. They are not, however, the types to allow their observations to isolate them from the world around them; if they do make a breakthrough, they are often eager to share their insights and their triumphs.

Worth matters greatly to them and they may throw themselves so wholeheartedly into it that they have little time to spare for friends and family. If they are to become emotionally fulfilled, they need to strike a better work life balance. They also need to watch their tendency to think negatively. Their observations of the harsh realities of life may have led them toward pessimism but they need to ensure this does not become a destructive force in their lives, especially between the ages of twenty-two and fifty-two when there is an added emphasis on practicality and realism. If, however, they can keep their generous spirit alive with uplifting thoughts and compassion, they may be able to transform their high ideals of emotional fulfillment and dreams of beauty into reality.

On the dark side ... work obsessed, anxious, detached

At your best ... articulate, artistic, hard work

Love (shared goals)

Physical beauty is a high priority for people born on July 31st, but for long-term satisfaction they should seek someone who shares their strong work ethic and artistic sensitivity. With their charm and ability to radiate warmth they can be attractive to others but need to be careful that their restless nature does not involve them in power plays with partners.

Career (born investigative researchers)

The love of observation and description that defines these people may draw them toward investigative careers such as forensic science, detective work, journalism, law, or science. They may also gravitate toward teaching. Other careers that might appeal include management, administration, politics, charity work, medicine, and art.

Destiny (to utilize their findings to help others)

The life path of people born on this day is to learn to make their thoughts work for them, not against them. Once they have managed to control their tendency toward negativity, their destiny is to make great discoveries and utilize their findings to help others.
