Born today, you are never the kind to attract a great deal of attention on purpose, but that doesn't mean you won't attract attention! On the contrary, you have something within you that will put you front and center again and again, often in front of large and appreciative audiences. You cherish your privacy and long for nothing more than quiet harmony at home, but it is likely that circumstances will, on more than one occasion, require you to step forward and make yourself available to a cause larger than anything you would choose on your own.
You have a rare point of view that allows you to weather adversity with aplomb, and you're never the kind to let bad news hold you up for long. When necessary, you know how to rally your forces and mount a dramatic comeback even though it can prove exhausting.
