The Day Of The Standout
Those born on August 21 fight a losing battle to protect themselves from the world's scrutiny. Very private individuals, they want to be left alone but are rarely allowed that luxury. Many born on this day find it natural to conceal their deeper feelings, thoughts and ideas from any except those they absolutely trust. For those who are not professional performers, to be put on display may be terribly uncomfortable, and yet the more they try to hide, the more they seem to come under attention. Thus two opposing forces are at war in their lives: the urge to hide and the ever-pressing demands of the world for them to show themselves.
Sometimes the very physical makeup and character of August 21 people make it impossible for them to avoid attracting interest. But if they can accept their destiny and take their rightful place in the society in which they live, they will eventually learn to share only as much of their private life as is necessary without undue pain or embarrassment. They will also feel less of a need to develop an unnaturally extroverted persona. When, on the other hand, those born on this day run from the world's demands, the solace they seek may be in all manner of excessive, even bizarre relationships, perhaps to their detriment and that of their families as well.
If they were only less unusual people themselves or involved with less controversial issues and careers, August 21 people might feel less of a conflict between public and private aspects of their lives. Often people born on this day impress one as somewhat withdrawn, and indeed are not so easy to relate to, since they rarely take the first step or speak the first word; furthermore they do not bend over backwards to please and therefore can give an impression of being stand-offish. Often the reason for this behavior is that they would prefer to remain unattached, perhaps even uninvolved. Yet the elusive demeanor many August 21 people present to the world usually hides a quite unusual person whose ideas and real personality, if known, might arouse the admiration of more extroverted souls.
August 21 people function well in a family, particularly the women born on this day. Both men and women can be a rock of stability, yet they will not hesitate to make their presence felt, their views known, or assert their independence, even when this latter action causes turmoil. Some August 21 people may suppress their own needs for the sake of others but they will never tolerate anyone else forcing them to do so. Those born on this day despise tyranny, pseudo-sophistication or social flattery. Hardly gullible, or easily touched for money, they are nevertheless extremely giving if not pushed too hard or too fast.
Sensual and sexual expression are important to August 21 people but they must beware of excessive behavior, since they themselves are often powerfully attractive and seductive. As for their emotional and spiritual needs, family and social work help them find fulfillment.

Advice
Usually, August 21 people manifest a protective and nurturing nature which is greatly beneficial to the good health of their families. If, however, they show excessive concern for their own well-being and that of their loved ones, they may suffer from undue stress. Therefore, they must beware of both gastric and duodenal ulcers. Fortunately, August 21 people usually display good sense about seeing the doctor and dentist, both for regular checkups and specific maladies. They may at first be suspicious of homeopathic remedies but are pragmatic enough not to reject them out of hand and will adopt them in fact if they work.
Try to make your peace with social demands; find a balance between your public and private lives
Be more trusting, more open
Don't pass judgment on others so quickly
Beware of feeling that you must prove yourself
Hello, I hope this resonated lol, happy early birthday to you as well! <3
