The only instance in which Richard Harris will really fight is when he senses that his loved ones - or something dear to him- are being jeopardized, in which case he is a fierce defender. Richard Harris has a very strong protective side. He acts on impulse and instinct and may lash out at anyone he perceives as threatening to Richard's home or family.

He is sensitive to stress and does not handle a high-pressured, competitive atmosphere very well.

He is philosophical about life and very perceptive, but may have an exaggerated sense of his own wisdom and depth of understanding of religious, metaphysical, artistic, or intuitive subjects.
