Your upbringing has had a strong effect on you, and you were probably brought
up in turbulent times, which encouraged you to develop a strong sense of com-
passion and understanding of humanity at an emotional level.  This is because
strong unconscious forces encourage you to develop to the full as an individual
by means of behaving towards others according to how you were taught you ought
to feel.  You share this tendency with people born over a number of years, and
therefore the effects may not appear to be strong to you.  The effect will be
most noticeable when dealing with those who are several years different in age
from yourself.  They will notice the intense, almost compulsive, energy you
invest in trying to transform the way people care for each other.
Your upbringing has had a strong effect on you, and you probably had a fairly
tough ride, although you are in the same boat as people born in roughly your
age group and you may therefore not be directly aware of your suffering, at-
tributing it, probably correctly, to outside factors beyond your control.  In
psychological terms there is a battle between your unconscious desire to get
ahead at all costs, and a rule system, developed from your upbringing, which
tells you to deal with people according to how you were taught you ought to
feel towards them.  In practice you are likely to feel very sensitive to
threats you perceive externally, trying to deal with them by subterfuge, or
you may try to control the world as a defence against being exploited.
Your upbringing has had a strong effect on you, and you were probably born
during a period of constructive change, when you had to be aware of both
the necessity for improvement on old methods and the emotional nurturing
that was needed during them.  This has left you, in psychological terms,
with a combination of a pioneering spirit, together with a strong aware-
ness of how you believe others are likely to feel about your actions.  You
therefore have considerable potential for changing the world in an ordered
way, and you are also very versatile.  If a direct approach does not get
you what you want, you may well find that an indirect approach does so.
This gives you a great deal of creative potential.
Your upbringing has had a strong effect on you, probably in connection
with difficult events in the outside world, since many people your own
age share this aspect.  You experience a conflict between asserting
yourself as an individual in obedience to your unconscious urge to get
ahead, and behaving compliantly in accordance with the way that your
upbringing taught you that you ought to feel.  This confict means that
you either feel very threatened by external forces or people and try to
avoid confrontation with them by deceit or camouflage, or else that you
try to control others unfairly.  In either case you need to achieve a
better balance between aggression and passivity, though this may be hard.
You were brought up during a period of constructive change, and you have thus
learned that for improvement to occur neither direct self-assertion according
to the will of your raw unconscious urges, nor faith in human nature derived
from your childhood understandings from how you were taught you ought to feel
are enough by themselves, yet a suitable combination of assertion and comp-
assion may work.  You may not be conscious of this talent you have, for it
is shared by many people of your time, but this does not reduce its import-
ance.  Being just one of many does not absolve you from the obligation to
be alert for the opportunity to assist in constructive change, and you need
to cooperate with others to make the most of this highly important aspect.
You were reared in rather confusing times, when opportunities were diffic-
ult to spot and it was hard to take advantage of openings.  Even now you
may feel some confusion over when to be assertive and when to sit back and
let things take their course.  You need to learn how to achieve a balance
between aggression and passivity, for both are sometimes appropriate.
You feel stress when it comes to a decision as to whether you should act
in your own interests, or you should put other people first, according to
how you were taught you ought to feel by your upbringing.  Part of the
problem may be the mark external circumstances made on you as a child.
You need to remember that you are free to change your response patterns.
