You can hold a room's attention without taking over. Warm humor and a practical eye for detail mark this person, who can enjoy the party while still making sure the bills get paid.

In publishing, teaching, architecture, communications or a public facing business you run, you shine. You can present solid work in a way that gets noticed. In love, you show affection and playfulness, and you want someone with your curiosity, loyalty and social warmth.
