What This Pairing Means
Fighters in both professional and personal life who argue a great deal, which disturbs married life. Disciplined themselves, they demand discipline from others; great leaders with very strong will who pursue their aims by any means. Stubborn and harsh in speech, they are very good friends but worst enemies. They may sometimes fix on the wrong aim, but execute it with full force — their excessive energy needs the support of good numbers in the grid, otherwise they can harm their own lives.
