| Celebrity profile: Johnny Depp
Birth Date: June 9, 1963 Section 1: The inner you: your real motivation You are, in many ways, an eternal child. Your mind is bright, alert, curious, flexible, playful, and always eager for new experiences, and your attention span is often quite brief. You grasp ideas quickly and once your initial curiosity has been satisfied, you want to go on to something else. You crave frequent change, variety, meeting new situations and people. It may be hard for you to decide just where your talents and true vocation lie, for you have a multitude of interests and are loathe to limit yourself by concentrating on just one. You are easily distracted by all of the other fascinating possibilities. Your curiosity and restlessness propel you into many different experiences in life, and you are willing to taste or try anything once. Doing the same thing over and over again, even if it is something you do well, is real drudgery for you. You live in your head a great deal reading, observing, thinking, spinning ideas around and you need mental stimulation every bit as much as you need food and drink. In fact, if you had to choose between a good book or movie and a good lunch, you would very likely choose the former. You have a creative mind and often live by your wits. You are also a very social creature, with a strong need to communicate and to interact with people. You enjoy using and playing with words and have a real flair for getting your ideas across in a clever, interesting, articulate manner. Writing or speaking are areas you have talent for. You also have a rather light and mischievous sense of humour, and often do not take anything too seriously. Though you crave emotional involvement, it is hard for you to achieve it, for you are frequently unwilling to commit yourself to anything, to take responsibility, or to limit your personal freedom and mobility. Your happiness lies in using your creativity and your language skills to communicate something meaningful, to teach, inspire, or bring people together. You have an unbiased mind and can usually offer a fresh, clear, uncluttered perspective. Your faults are your lack of constancy and persistence and your tendency to overlook or ignore deep emotional issues and other peoples feelings. Your life is apt to be blessed with more than your share of helpful friends, fortuitous connections and doors opening to you at just the right time. Because you are usually willing to share and to give back to others in a generous way, you continue to generate successes in your life no matter how unfortunate prevailing circumstances are. Beware, however, of becoming an opportunist. Section 2: Mental interests and abilities Your mind operates in a very deliberate and methodical manner and you dislike being rushed or forced to give an opinion before you have thoroughly ruminated and digested an idea. You are also difficult to influence once your mind is made up. Though slower to grasp new concepts or learn new skills, you are patient and persevering and, in fact, often become quite adept at whatever you put your mind and hand to, for you are willing to devote much time and attention to it. You succeed not so much because of your mental brilliance, but because you have the ability to concentrate and follow a project through to its completion. You have an aptitude for singing or drawing. You appreciate aesthetics and have a fine sense of form, design and beauty. You could develop considerable technical skill as an artist, designer, craftsman or creative writer. You could also sell objects of beauty artistic products, cosmetics, jewellery, etc. You have the ability to please and harmonise well with others and tend to ameliorate relationships between people. Your sense of humour, tact, and personal charm are of great benefit to you in any work with people on a one-to-one level. You have an aptitude for solving difficult mental problems due to your careful, methodical approach, attention to detail, and tenacity in following a matter through to its conclusion. You have good powers of concentration and enjoy studying and thinking in solitude. You can get wrapped up entirely in your own thoughts and completely engrossed in some small detail. You are slow and cautious, but extremely thorough in your work. Conservative and something of a sceptic, you may be narrow-minded or closed to any idea which has no concrete proof or scientific verification. You prefer dealing with facts rather than abstract speculation. You may also be distrustful or fearful of anything you cannot understand with your rational mind. You are well-suited to work in research or any field that requires careful study and thought. Your normal energies could suddenly go down and you are likely to experience self-doubt about your abilities and inner fears that your security will be taken away. You also could be subject to sudden, unexpected upsets in your life.
Section 3: Emotions: moods, feelings, romance In love, you are steadfast and loyal, especially if you have a warm, demonstrative partner. You are very sensually oriented and need lots of touching and physical affection. You enjoy being pampered with a good meal, loving massage or other sensual delights. You are a wonderful lover, very attentive to the comfort and enjoyment of the one you love. You are tremendously responsive to beauty and physical appearances and the physical attractiveness of your partner is very important to you. You are serious and find it difficult to enjoy yourself in a light-hearted, open and playful way with others. You rarely do something purely for pleasure and can be very close-fisted or parsimonious. Perhaps due to painful separations in early life, you are very cautious about becoming close to people and sharing your feelings. Though you crave love and affection, intimacy is difficult for you. You may become romantically involved with people who do not value you or treat you well. You need to learn to love and value yourself before you will find happiness in love. Section 4: Drive and ambition: how you achieve your goals You are a perfectionist and have high standards for your own work. You often feel that if you want something done right you must do it yourself, for others do not do as thorough a job as you do. Doing a task well is very important to you, and you may labour over minute details that others wouldnt bother with. You strive for accuracy, efficiency, and precision, and you become very irritable when things are not done right. On the other hand, you can become so much of a perfectionist and so self-critical that you will not even attempt many activities and projects, feeling that your efforts simply wont be good enough. You are usually modest and realistic in assessing what you can accomplish and, if anything, you underestimate yourself. Of course, practice makes perfect, and if you do apply yourself diligently in some area, you gradually gain self-confidence as you master skills and develop expertise. You conserve your energy and pace yourself so that you do not waste or diffuse your efforts. An unwillingness to take risks or venture from the beaten track can sometimes limit your opportunities. In short, you may not aim high enough and settle for too little in life. Dynamic, self-willed, and fiercely independent, you have extraordinary drive and energy. When you want something, you want it NOW, and you act quickly, impulsively, and decisively. Your impatience inclines you to be abrupt with people and reckless. You need a great deal of personal freedom to do things in your own way and do not happily conform to schedules, rules, or regimes imposed by others. You are intolerant of authority and can be very rebellious. You are very frank with others, sometimes brutally so. You may have an explosive temper. High-strung and often nervous and tense, you find it difficult to slow down, pace yourself or relax. You are always on the go. You are restless, daring and experimental. When you want something, you go after it with passionate zeal and are sometimes so driven by your desire that you lose all objectivity. You get so deeply involved in whatever you are pursuing that you become one-sided, even fanatical. Strong-willed and stubborn, you insist on having your way no matter the cost. You are fascinated with power. You often try to overpower anything or anyone you perceive as an obstacle, if not physically then by the force of your will. You can be ruthless and impersonal when it comes to achieving your ambitions and goals in life. You have enormous energy and are capable of extraordinary effort and great achievement. You can also become a compulsive workaholic.
Section 5: Growth and expansion: areas that you enjoy You believe strongly in the power of positivity and in each individuals ability to make life anything desired through ones own initiative and effort. The more you rely on yourself, the better you feel, and you find it difficult to ask for, or accept, outside help. The joy of competing (and especially winning) runs deep in you. You are prone to impractical dreams and schemes and quixotic visions of what could be. If your plans are too farfetched or grandiose, they are apt to never be realised. Even if other factors in your chart indicate that you are a well-grounded, realistic person, you still have this unfettered imagination which sometimes runs away with you. Occasionally you can be duped. Section 6: Areas that challenge you or are difficult for you You have an innate distrust of groups and/or a cynical attitude toward society that may leave you feeling out of step and unable to participate in activities with your peers. Overcoming a sense of aloofness and alienation from others is an important task for you. Now we will discuss patterns of behaviour which you instinctively and habitually revert to when under stress. This is a mostly unconscious process and one which you are apt to overdo because it is so familiar and thus easy for you. The direction you need to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness and wholeness is also described. When under stress you are apt to close down the flow of your emotions, ignoring your needs and feelings in order to do what you perceive as your duty or simply what the practical realities of the situation require. This can lead to a certain rigidity and hardness. If overdone, self-control, self-discipline, or an exaggerated concern over what society, family or others expect of you makes life more a burden than an adventure. Developing tenderness, caring, feeling and the feminine, nurturing aspects of yourself is an important step in your unfolding. You need to learn how to nourish and lovingly attend to both yourself and others. Letting yourself be taken care of sometimes is okay. Section 7: Generational influences: your age group The subconscious and emotional drive of your age group You are part of a 15-year group of people driven by the need to find an ethical standard and a clear sense of what is right and what is wrong. There is a subconscious drive to straighten out all the worlds evils and create a world of perfect order. There is a feeling of repulsion to anything ugly, dirty or grotesque. Oddly enough, there is also often a fascination with these very things that are so distasteful, and often a feeling of hopelessness and despair about the worlds condition. These inner, emotional and conflicting qualities are reflected in the attitudes and lifestyles of your generation. Most people of your age group are conservative and ethical, while a small minority goes to the opposite extreme and relishes being strange or unusual in appearance, and sloppy or even grotesque in manners. There seems to be no middle ground for your generation. Usually, this rebellion comes out during adolescence and tends to subside thereafter. Your age group tends to be very conservative in later life. Your age group is not very good at compromising and tends to have definite ideas about what is right and what is wrong. There is a strong feeling that you must extinguish evil in the world. Certainly, fostering good works is commendable, but a categorical and simple-minded response to complex issues is not helpful. Your age group will undergo great transformations in attitudes regarding good and evil and will swing to great extremes. Your generation will also make great contributions in the areas of medicine, nutrition, ecology and education. The ideals and illusions of your age group You are part of a 14-year group of people with intense psychic sensitivity and imagination. Your age group is very attracted to the strange, weird and unusual. The sense of the macabre and bizarre is strong, which is reflected in much of the music, art and fashions you pursue. Novels and movies with mystery and chilling suspense are also popular with your age group. Emotional depression, drug use, and suicide are likely to be relatively high in your age group. There is also a deep sense of mysticism, making Eastern religions and meditation very attractive. The entire generation to which you belong has tremendous opportunities for spiritual rebirth and awakening. This will not be forced upon you or precipitated by unavoidable events. Rather it comes from an inner yearning and a natural propensity to seek the depths. What is new and different in your age group You are part of a seven-year group of people who employ their skills and creativity to bring about a great deal of practical reform in education, medical care and other social services. Your innovations are not radical or unusual, but they are usually effective. Your generation also has a curious mixture of both conservative, ethical people, and rebellious, disruptive people. There seems to be little middle ground for your age group, and you swing to one extreme or the other. The conservative people strive to reinstate strict moral standards, want to swiftly punish criminal behaviour and strive to highlight the importance of old-fashioned values in our lives, laws and overall lifestyle. On the other hand, the rebellious people of your generation are angry at the established way of doing things and act in a defiant, crude and coarse manner.
