People born on October 30 like to immerse themselves fully in whatever project, situation or relationship captures their vivid imagination. Like deep-sea divers, they throw themselves in at the deep end and their whole world is taken over by their current interest or concern.

Whatever it is that engages the interest of these people, it will often monopolize all their attention. The upside of this is that their energy, absorption and one hundred per cent dedication give them great potential for success in whatever field they have chosen to plunge into. Their infectious enthusiasm and charismatic charm encourage others to take the plunge with them. They are also not afraid to deal with the mundane aspects of the goal to which they have committed, and this practicality—combined with their logical and progressive intellect and excellent communication skills—makes them natural organizers and motivators of others. The downside, however, is that, as well as neglecting other important areas of their lives, when a particular challenge has been overcome or their current passion has settled into a routine they tend to lose interest. This can leave their disillusioned followers without a motivated leader.

Before the age of twenty-three they are largely concerned with the development of their personal power and how to handle their strong feelings. They may come across during this period as rather intense and serious individuals. However, after the age of twenty-four there is a turning point which emphasizes a growing need for more optimism and expansion in their lives. They need to take full advantage of opportunities to study, travel and expand their horizons.

Whatever age they are, these fascinating and sincere individuals will always have a strong spirit of enterprise. When they are able to expand and diversify their life from a one-dimensional to a multi-dimensional focus, not only will they fulfill their potential as inspirational teachers, managers and leaders, they will finally be able to come out of the water and breathe.
