This is a very positive aspect, but it can have some drawbacks. You are a very positive and cheerful person who likes others and is generally well liked. Your high energy level makes people feel good in your presence and even cheers up those who are depressed. You feel good about yourself as well.

But you must learn to control yourself somewhat, for you tend to overdo whatever you get involved in, even to the point of physical exhaustion. This may affect your digestion, causing discomfort and irritation. Even when you are totally worn out by some activity, you may feel that you have to go on, so learn to relax.

Also you will have to learn to be less extravagant about spending money. You are likely to buy things on the spur of the moment, then not care about them very much afterward. You may have to control your eating and later your drinking habits, because this aspect indicates a tendency to gain weight.

You really enjoy good times, but again you must learn self-control. You can have too much, even of a good time, but you may not recognize that when you should.

In everything you do, you get involved totally or not at all. You see no reason to do anything halfway. But you are impulsive and change your mind easily, so after getting involved in a project, you often drop it before it is finished.

But you will get along easily with other people, for they will enjoy your energies even when they are somewhat out of control.

That spending thing... OMG... I'm so bad. I thought about posting a little rant about how damn ridiculous I am sometimes with my money. For instance:

I was meant to be a spoiled princess with alot of money, I reward myself against anyone else's better judgement far too much.

So we fall for emotionaly manipulative ads to get rid of our money since it's nicer to be in a new emotional state, than worry about the money.

Most people put their money away in products, for that reason, and realize that it doesn't matter where the money goes, as long as it's away. If you can get it back again, even better.

I am trying to teach my 14yrd old Aqua brother about money and he is learning now that borrowing money leads to more borrowing money, but trading and bartering the stuff is a wise move. People love to trade or give things away, and it's thoughtful to share.

We are living in a society that puts down sharing.

Money gives me a lot of anxiety. I used to have a lot of panic attacks when I was a teen (mom induced), but have pretty much grown out of it as an adult... except where money is concerned. When bills pile up, or a bill collector calls me... I totally panic. Everything always works out, and bill collectors are usually really nice and work deals out with me... but it still makes me panic. I really don't understand money. In some ways, I resent it.

I've kinda always chalked money making me panic up to the way I grew up. Mom being so young and all. Lights got shut off all the time... stuff like that. I don't know how many times I had to go stay with my grand parents because some utility or other was shut off.
