You have a natural mellowness, and even as a child you seemed like a “little adult,” with insights and pragmatism far beyond your years. This wisdom is the result of a quick mind and a regulated heart. That doesn't mean you are dispassionate — just even-keeled. You aren't quick to anger, don't laugh too loudly, or love spontaneously. Additionally, the Aries decanate speaks of someone very secure, who has a clear image of goals and how to reach them.

Having a birth number 8, you can do nearly anything to which you apply your mind and hands. You've got enough work ethic for two people, and the brainpower to create wonders. Better still, your brilliance isn't overwhelming — you still know how to talk to the “everyday” person and explain profoundly complex ideas in simple, beautiful ways. Everyone around you naturally trusts that, which in turn thrusts you into leadership roles no matter the career path chosen. In particular teaching would be a great place for your personality and intellect to shine. You would be the teacher everyone remembered fondly.

In relationships people find today's Archer to be as direct as your arrow. You don't like “small talk” and appreciate people who are truthful and cooperative. As a partner, that aptitude for leading can sometimes come across as being overly authoritarian, but the issue is quickly resolved with a gentle reminder that mates are not coworkers or employees.
