Your form of thinking is, well, interesting, to say the least. There is a virtual galaxy inside of your head that can make you brilliant and gifted but also make you utterly confused. As a child, you enjoyed daydreaming, fantasizing, pretending, and probably lived in “your own little world” very much. Subjects that involved storytelling of some kind, like History or English, were probably your strong suits in class, as well as anything creative. As a student, you usually excel in artsy electives like Photography, Drama or Visual Art in school. But, when it came to Math or Physics, your brain might have seriously malfunctioned. It could have stumped you, your parents, and/or your teachers, especially if you were a really bright kid who happened to be almost failing Algebra. But, the thing is, your intelligence is only ignited when it comes to subjects that have no boundaries. Math involves almost no imagination; it’s too linear for you. You’re not interested in two plus two equals four. That’s too limited of a way to think. You’re interested in information that has to be imagined, felt through, creatively interpreted. You’re stimulated when you’re able to transcend logical boundaries. Creative presentations, ripe with images and imagery, are what grab your attention and interest. This is why you’re the visionary. Your mental faculties are on another plane than many other people. Communications with others can sometimes be confusing, for you or the other person. You often find words frustrating and inadequate to express your experiences and perceptions. You are often vague in your communications, purposefully or not, as you resist being pinned down to any one opinion or stance. This is partly due to your ability to see so many different points of view and perspectives. People who have a much more straightforward, simple viewpoint can simply be left scratching their heads at some of the things you say. Your language can become so poetic and suggestive that it seems like you’re speaking in Shakespeare than regular English. Yet, you can also sometimes become confused by the subliminal messages you’re picking up from others. You have a very psychic feel for information, taking it all in on a deeply right-brain level. You understand all the things that people don’t understand about a person, a subject, or a situation; the things that are invisible. But, it’s this very understanding that can make you feel misunderstood or somewhat insane, at times. You hear everything they say and everything they don’t say. People often say what they don’t mean or converse in ways that cover their true feelings, and you clearly see all of this and it can puzzle you or upset you, possibly making you believe that the other person is seriously troubled or has ill will toward you. But the same goes for you too. Your words are often full of subtext, like some film actor silently expressing their feelings during a close-up. A lot of people pick up on this, which might make you come off as a mystery, in your conversations. In fact, this subterranean kind of communication might unsettle other people, just like you can be unsettled by others’ hidden meanings and moods. They may get the subtle sense that you’re lying to them or keeping secrets, in some sense, or feel puzzled by your indirectness. It wouldn’t hurt to cultivate a bit more straightforwardness, at times, and not expect others to read your mind. Not everyone is as psychic as you are, after all. You also need regular time alone to clear your head. You need regular time of quiet, with no noise at all, wringing out the sponge that is your brain. The more mental clarity and sharpness you have, the more control you’ll have over your gift. You are such a chameleon and, therefore, it’s very easy for you to assimilate the opinions, thoughts, even voices of others as your own, even if you have an independent mind. But, clearly recognizing your own voice will let you know when someone else’s thoughts are entering your head. Therefore, you can create stronger mental boundaries between you and others and function in your social life more. You usually understand the themes and messages of a given film or piece of music on deeper, more complex levels than most. You can instantly understand anything that’s soulful and relates to the human experience. This gives you a very soothing, empathetic touch in your conversations. Whenever someone’s speaking to you about their experience, you automatically envision the story they’re telling, putting yourself right in their shoes. Again, you might have to watch out for this. You can sometimes adapt to the other person to the point of virtually becoming them. The good thing is that your adaptability allows you to go with the flow of any conversation. You can have a very serious talk, a silly talk, an intense, emotional talk, or a laidback talk. Your humor can come from saying what others are thinking, but not in a brutally honest way. Your way is just by reading what the other person’s mood and saying something funny to appeal to that. You are a chameleon in your wit, too. You can be dry, goofy, sarcastic, or slapstick, depending on the person and situation. Yet, you can enjoy your sense of humor just as privately, as well, if not more. You tell a lot of jokes to yourself, laughing at them constantly in your head, though few may notice. You might also act out or think of a lot of funny situations by yourself or imagine yourself cracking others up. That imagination just never stops. Because you are likely to be misunderstood much of the time, especially when young, you may develop insecurities of a mental or nervous nature. Your style of communication, or possibly thinking, is often self-defeating. To cope, you may rely even more on your fantasies. When your mind goes to these far-off places, it can be difficult to pull you back down-to-earth. You might have problems concentrating because your mind is often wandering. Your thinking is exceptionally imaginative, intuitive, and creative. Bored with anything dull, routine, or lifeless, you often dramatize or connect higher meaning to ordinary events and situations. Confronted by reality, you can become hesitant, incapable of being tested and falls back into your own imaginary world. You are very sensitive to criticism or rejection so it is important you try to find other spiritual or artistic types to hang around. Learning to discipline and focus your mind is necessary if you wish to use all of your creative potential. Otherwise, you could simply be a dreamer.
