Miko Lee
general characteristics

Miko Lee's fundamental needs, values, and orientation towards life are symbolized by the four astrological elements. Each person has their own unique balance of these four basic energies: fire (warmth, inspiration, enthusiasm), earth (practicality, realism, material interests), air (social and intellectual qualities), and water (emotional needs and feelings).

Lee's "elemental make-up" is described below. Remember that most people are "unbalanced" or lopsided, and if Miko is lacking or deficient in a certain element (or elements), it simply means that she needs to consciously develop that particular aspect in order to appreciate and/or work harder in that dimension of life.

Sometimes we overestimate the element that we are least endowed with, sensing it as a lack within ourselves, but more often we neglect or ignore it. The qualities described below will be reiterated and explained in more detail in the following pages.

She is a fiery individual, filled with tremendous passion and zest for life. Miko thrives in situations where there is energy, excitement, action, movement, dynamism and drama. Along with her exuberant vitality and enthusiasm, Miko Lee has an acute ability to visualize future possibilities, and an almost childlike faith in "what could be". Unless she has a vision, an aspiration, or a wonderful dream to believe in, Lee is not completely happy. Miko Lee has a great sense of the majesty, grandeur and adventure of life, but tends to overlook the magic in small things and everyday life.

Miko Lee also has a strong urge to express herself spontaneously and creatively, without conforming to others' ways or conventions. Personal freedom and independence are very important to Miko and she resists being "owned" or dictated to. Lee is secretly apt to feel that she is special or charmed - somehow above or beyond the realm of "ordinary" people and mundane life.

Miko Lee has a dominant ego and can be excessively proud, dominating, or concerned with herself. Miko Lee has a positive, vigorous, active approach to life, and bringing her intentions and desires to the fore feels more natural to her than going with the flow or merely allowing life to unfold. Miko Lee is essentially very "yang" (assertive, competitive, outgoing, direct), and the "yin" qualities of passive acceptance, receptivity, gentleness, and subtlety do not come easily to her. Miko inspires others with her generous spirit, idealism, spark, confidence and joie de vivre, but she can also irritate them with her self-centeredness and insistence on expressing herself freely regardless of others' needs or opinions. Moreover, Miko Lee has trouble being content in the present and would benefit by learning how to consciously pacify her restlessness and achieve the capacity for tranquility and peacefulness.

One of her primary challenges lies in developing a sense of security and stability and adopting a steady rhythm in life. Cultivating self-discipline, patience and endurance and learning to accept realistic limitations will enable Miko Lee to be more productive and to implement some of her ideas and creative impulses. Miko Lee is not always interested in the practicalities and compromises required to make her dreams a reality.

At times, Miko Lee feels out of place in the world, restless, discontent, unable to find her niche and dissatisfied with mundane reality. This may have the positive effect of sparking Lee's exploration of the creative, imaginative or spiritual side of life. However, Miko tends to resist growing up and learning how to effectively deal with adult responsibility. She also tends to be either bound up with the past or projecting into the future, thereby ignoring the present. To become more grounded in the here and now, Miko Lee may find it helpful to get massages on a regular basis, make a practice of gentle, rhythmic exercise like walking or yoga, and eat substantial, heavy foods.

Miko Lee tends to lack the ability to analyze herself or her life in a detached, objective way. Miko feels and experiences but does not necessarily understand or reflect upon her experience, and thus finds it hard to talk about it. Really taking in what someone else has to say can be hard for Miko Lee - she does not readily adapt to new ideas or people, and as a result may become inflexible or limit her experience of life. Broadening her education and gaining exposure to different cultures is very beneficial to Miko. Otherwise she is apt to be rigid and even prejudiced against those outside her own circle. (This may be manifested in arthritic conditions, poor flexibility, or poor circulation).

She also tends to distrust people who communicate freely or to feel inferior to those who are more articulate and intellectual than she is. Miko Lee learns much more readily by watching, doing or apprenticing than by reading or being told about something.

Although she is energetic and confident, as described above, Miko Lee also expresses herself with a lot of feeling and sensitivity, as described in greater detail in the next chapter. Miko Lee appears less cocksure and narcissistic than she actually is.
