Being born on Halloween creates some very interesting energies. You're sensitive to spirits and have a knack for discerning possible futures, which means that people sometimes find you a little odd, if not incredibly disconcerting, with all that perceptiveness. Thankfully you've still got a strong logical side to keep you grounded, and a healthy dose of skepticism to avoid over-spiritualizing the mundane. This is a really good balance point, especially considering a birth number 5 that would love for you to become a professional ghost hunter or spiritualist!

If you don't seek adventure with the residents of the afterlife, you may be drawn to mental explorations in technical or research sciences where you can get that rewarding “ah ha!” and share your excitement with other brilliant minds. Whatever the choice, you need to hear approving words and have your ego stroked regularly. Most of this has to do with lingering memories of failed situations for which you've never truly forgiven yourself. The sad part is that typically you weren't the problem at all — rather, you simply took the guilt upon yourself.

With the guilt factor in mind, it's not surprising that you find it hard to open up and receive. One side of you doesn't feel wholly worthy of love, and the other side is much too busy to worry about it. If you learn to trust your instincts more, you are, however, capable of being a very intuitive, proactive lover.
