On the other hand, your mystical and philanthropic inclinations may inspire you to be spontaneous and pursue a humanitarian cause, displaying your more compassionate nature.

Your confidence increases if you replace your doubts with commitment and faith in your abilities.

Your Secret Self
Love and relationships are especially important to you, and you often have a desire to make other people happy. This can be expressed as humanitarian caring or warmhearted generosity.
