Children & Family
May 23 natives need the support of a loving family group. Although they may have grown up as part of an unconventional family, they tend to keep in close touch with their parents and siblings. As parents, they can be demanding, even critical, with their children. They foster a sense of competition, and they may struggle to relate to a child who is self-conscious and shy.

Health
Like many Gemini natives, May 23 individuals have a high metabolism, which causes them to burn calories easily. Because they lead active lives, they have no problem getting enough exercise. What they need is a way to relax. This can best be achieved through yoga and meditation.

Career & Finances
May 23 natives have many talents. They may change their plans many times before finally deciding how they want to spend their lives. Money flows in and out of their lives with considerable ease. Whatever their talent for accumulating money, they have little talent for saving. Professional advice is vital.

Dreams & Goals
Even though May 23 individuals have high ideals, they rarely have a clear concept of goals. These are highly idealistic people whose talent for daydreaming outstrips their gifts for concrete planning. When a goal is important, they will work hard to make it come true.
