The more you can control yourself and find ways to let off steam, the more you will be respected and the less likely you are to have enemies. Lucky people don’t have enemies.
People born on February 27 have the ability to turn heads and win hearts wherever they go. There is a magnetic and striking intensity about them that can hold others spellbound.
These people like to be in the limelight, and sooner or later they will be. Others admire them, not just for their hypnotic personality but because they stride confidently and with purpose through life, achieving their goals with ease and grace. They have a mind forever open to the new but they are also able to analyze in depth. By devoting a great deal of their energy to understanding how things work, their knowledge base increases steadily until it becomes so solid that it can see them through from one ambitious project to the next, taking them to the very top. There is one area of their lives, however, unlikely to be envied by others: their personal lives.
Although this may appear contradictory—given their cool and charismatic image—February 27 people often have a chaotic emotional life, with broken relationships littered around them. The reason is that they have a deeply emotional nature; although they have learned to control it when it comes to impersonal relationships, their own personal relationships are threatened by their impulse to follow their heart. It is extremely important for people born on this day to apply discipline to personal relationships and to stop making unreasonable, childish demands on others, especially between the ages of twenty-three and fifty-two when they will become even more active and adventurous. If self-discipline isn’t learned during this period, the result could be emotional and personal chaos.
At their worst, people born on this day can be social-climbing attention seekers. At their best, however, they are lovable and spontaneous creatures who can both intoxicate and inspire others with their presence. They may often be described as a little crazy by those who know them, but once they invest their energy into a worthwhile cause they can achieve great things and enjoy the limelight they seem destined for.

They can be incredibly inconsistent lovers and those in a relationship with them will need to learn how to avoid head-on confrontations. When they do finally feel able to commit to a relationship, however, they can be spontaneous, passionate and vulnerable lovers; a little high maintenance, perhaps, but well worth the effort.

People born on this day are full of energy and so a vigorous exercise program is recommended to prevent them working off their energy or seeking a high in an unhealthy direction, such as chasing numerous sexual partners, drinking or gambling. As far as diet is concerned, simple and natural is recommended, with reduced amounts of red meat and dairy and saturated fat. They would also benefit from breathing exercises, meditation and yoga to help them develop the self-discipline to keep their passions under control. Meditating on, wearing or surrounding themselves with the colors blue and lavender will help them stay cool and logical when passions flare.
Career
These people seem destined to be in the limelight, and careers on the stage, in the movies or anywhere where people will be watching them perform in some way have great appeal. If they work in business, they will be attracted to sales, advertising and marketing, but they can also make inspirational teachers and lecturers. They are also ideally suited to life as an entrepreneur and may well find satisfaction in building up their own business.
Destiny

People born on February 28 have a warm glow about them and can light up their lives of others with their energy and originality. They love to be center stage and are often in just that spot at social gatherings. Natural performers, they are never short of admirers and are blessed with the ability to charm just about anyone they meet.
Articulate and entertaining, people born on this day will go out of their way to get a laugh or reaction from others, even if this involves exaggerating the truth. They thrive on being noticed, but attention seeking isn’t what drives them. Their motivation is a thirst for adventure and they will enthusiastically follow wherever their impulses direct them. Underlying their restlessness, however, is a deep-seated fear of standing still; the fear of it will drive them toward sensation-seeking and sometimes self-destructive behavior.
They won’t ever lose the glint in their eye, but underneath their bravado they do secretly long to find a real purpose and achieve lasting success in the eyes of the world. This won’t be possible until they discover that self-esteem is not created by thrill-seeking but by being the person they are. It is important for these people to learn to be more comfortable with being rather than doing, because until they can reach this level of awareness their life may hurtle chaotically from one situation to another and one person to another. They should learn to cultivate an inner calmness between the ages of twenty-two and fifty-one, when there is an emphasis in their life on new directions and ventures.
Because people born on this day live in such a vibrant and wholehearted way, they will experience life more intensely than others. They do, however, need to rein in their compulsion to indulge their every whim and learn greater self-control. They should never suppress their optimism and curiosity, but if they can just try to look before they leap, they can become far more than original charmers; they can become life’s pioneers, boldly going where none have gone before.
On the dark side
Thoughtless, melodramatic, reckless
At your best
Charming, original, vibrant
Love
People born on February 28 can find it hard to stay committed to one relationship. They can be big flirts, which can upset a partner.

They tend to stick with partners who are loyal, energetic and glamorous.
Health
Life in the fast lane can take its toll on the health of people born on this day and it is important for them to set aside days of peace and rest to stop them burning out. There is a tendency for them to neglect their health as they jump from one adventure to another; regular health check-ups are therefore recommended. They often enjoy cooking, so this will encourage them to eat more healthily; as far as exercise is concerned, they would benefit most from those with a mind-body approach, such as yoga or tai chi, although swimming and running also suit them. Wearing, surrounding themselves with or meditating on shades of purple will encourage them to look within rather than without for a sense of self-esteem.
Career
These people need to find careers which will allow them to channel their energy and curiosity. They are ideally suited to careers in tourism and travel, as well as arts and sports. Their sharp mind and desire to explore mentally may also draw them to science, teaching, research, and philosophy, and they can also thrive in careers which allow them to take the lead, such as management or business, or working for themselves. Later in life they may be drawn toward helping others, and their love of the dramatic may also draw them to the arts, writing and entertainment world.
