You enjoy being in the spotlight, entertaining friends and meeting new people, and you can be charming company even in the most unexpected circumstances. It is rare to see you looking dowdy or untidy - in fact, you are usually one of the best dressed and groomed of all the animal signs. You take an active interest in clothes, colours, designs and accessories, and can be just as critical about your own appearance as you are about that of others. You like to keep the conversation flowing and are unlikely to initiate in depth discussion, but this light-hearted front hides a good intellect. Others may criticize you for being an exhibitionist - and no doubt there are times when you would agree with this - but there is also a compassionate, wise and brave side to your nature, which comes to the fore when others need your help.
You have a strong independent spirit, which makes it hard for you to accept advice. You are confident in your own judgments and choices, and prefer to follow your own routine. You can also be straightforward to the point of hurting others, and when something needs to be said you go ahead and say it. This directness stems from naivety, not from vindictiveness, since you believe that honesty is the best policy. There are times, however, when it might be better not to express your opinions in order to keep the peace.
In many ways you are a good performer, presenting a carefree front, but your real nature is hidden from most people. Your erratic and sometimes even careless behavior belies a vulnerable streak, and so you tend to protect yourself with humour and lively conversation. Your close friends appreciate your sensitive and courageous side, but acquaintances are only likely to see it in times of crisis.
