Cooperation rarely comes easily to her. She is willful and can be quite oblivious to others' desires or feelings when she is pursuing something she wants.

Abounding in energy and enthusiasm at the start of a new venture, Anna Popplewell needs a very positive response and encouragement in order to sustain her interest throughout.

She may have to overcome something in her background or personal past in order to achieve her long-range goals and ambitions.
