Born today, you always seem to have a trick up your sleeve. This is not so much because you are tricky or deceptive, but because there are so many facets to your complex personality that you are always surprising those around you with words or deeds that seem out of character. Yet, in the long run, they fit perfectly into the scope of who you are and what you are about. Always eager to better yourself and the lot of those around you, you will work tirelessly to see wrongs righted and injustices reversed. You may not always be popular, but you are always attracting attention to yourself.
You may be plagued by dark moods, and this can make life difficult for you at home -- for it is there that you feel free to succumb to depression. This trend will surely affect your friends and family members as well. Your domestic life may be no picnic, but it can be quite rich and rewarding when all is said and done.
