Anyone seeking Bowie's advice is certain to get an unemotional and unbiased assessment of their situation, and David - therefore - makes a good arbitrator or judge. He is thorough, conscientious and disciplined in his thinking, and has an aptitude for business, organization and administration. David Bowie is also a good strategist, and he will plan and patiently follow a realistic course which will lead to his eventual success.

David Bowie has a deep, serious turn of mind, and when out of balance, he tends toward pessimism, cynicism, and overly rigid or judgmental thinking. These are tendencies Bowie may have to work to counteract, by choosing to focus on the humor in a situation, associating with cheerful, positive-minded people, and so on. Being around children can sometimes alter and lighten up his mental outlook considerably. Duty, obligation, "should", and "ought to" may color David's thinking too much.

Although David Bowie's thinking is precise and logical, as described above, at times Bowie can be quite the opposite. There may very well be periods of absentmindedness, building castles in the air, or ruminating over mystical, abstract or imponderable subjects, as discussed below.

His mind is highly imaginative and creative and he possesses dramatic, artistic or musical abilities. As a child, David Bowie enjoyed daydreaming, fantasizing and pretending, and probably lived in "his own little world" a good deal. He perceives things that are not obvious to other people and David Bowie has an uncanny ability to "read" people and situations without being told anything about them. However, David Bowie must learn to discriminate between true psychic perception and his imagination. Learning to discipline and focus his mind is necessary if Bowie wishes to use all of his creative potential. Otherwise, David Bowie could be simply a dreamer.
