Born today, you have been endowed with tremendous talent, and you will be aware of it from your earliest years, when you experiment with how to use it to its fullest potential. It may seem to you as if you have no choice in life as far as the road you are destined to take -- but that is, in fact, the point! Your sense of destiny is keen, and you are more than likely to accept your assignment in life without question, knowing that to do so will mean the full development of your skills and talents, and the application of them to endeavors that are more meaningful than most everyday jobs. The day-in-day-out grind is not for you; you want things to be special all the time!
You know how to take something that has been done before and do it in a way that makes it seem new and exciting -- to you and to others. Indeed, it is your own personal stamp that will make what you do really count. Though you may imitate others while you are learning, you'll no doubt come into your own very quickly.
