It has the capacity to overcome the coldness of the two cold elements, earth and water, and so creates and maintains harmony among the elements. You crave the excitement of doing, of being in the midst of what is happening. You are self assertive and independent. On the negative side you want to see how much you can get away with. You test those close to you and those wanting to join your circle to see if they are worthy of your association. You give everything which makes you vulnerable but because you are already aware of this you use it in order to make sure your trust isn't violated.
Planet: Your planet is the "Sun"...The Sun rules the heart, spleen, upper back, lower spine, right eye for males, left eye for females, cerebral haemorrhage, skin cancer, hormones and glands.

It represents the main direction or course of ones life and the focus you want your life to take, and your determination to accomplish what you set out to do. It is your personal honesty and integrity, and the ability to command respect and authority, to impress and influence others. The Sun signifies father, courage, power and authority, finances, ambitions, boldness, politician, commanding power, dignity, generosity and kind heartedness. It also rules optimism, administrator, general success, royalty, real love and personality of the native. When afflicted the reverse results.
Character: You are charming and a natural showman, however; you also are domineering and stubborn at times. You are forceful which makes people percieve you as "coming on too strong".. without you however there wouldn't be much spice in life. You have a bright personality and are considered the "royal sign" of the zodiac. You love to be flattered! This is great however sometimes you need to check your ego because it can get the better of you; you define flattery as affection. You break conventions, you defy rules; but instead of being destructive, you usually come up with answers. You build, create, entertain, illuminate, provide light as well as heat. You are easily decieved by the opposite sex; you have numerous affairs of the heart; some which leave emotional scars. You are idealistic, almost taking it for granted that others will understand that your motives are pure. You are apt to have a rude awakening because you'll discover that others will smile in your face but seethe inwardly with resentment at your popularity. You have pride which can be your greatest asset and or fault. You are creative and like to build things and people up. You are loyal and expect this of everyone else but must realize others have been slighted and will not share in all your enthusiastic adventures.
General Overview: You are a natural showman who loves to be flattered but at times need to check your ego. So many people showing you affection tends to make your head too big. You are one of the zodiac leaders by breaking the rules you always find a better way to do conventional things. You are popular, irresistible, flamboyant, extravagant, colorful and talented, if you seek these attributes with an open yet unsuperficial mind you will find the happiness you already created with your thoughts!
