~first~, people are complex, with a variety of traits that make up their character. Sometimes attributes and influences in a chart are incompatible, creating friction or problems. This can be especially true during the early years of life.

In your case, your Heart's Desire is in conflict with your Personality. The Heart's Desire is the influence that reveals what makes you truly happy and determines what you like and dislike in your lifestyle. You have a 6 in this position. (In your case this 6 is based on a 33, which is a Master number. We will discuss your Master number in one of the next chapters.) The 6 is the most loving of all numbers, focused on the needs of others. It is caring, sacrificing, protective, and requires the warmth of friends and family.

Your 7 Personality, on the other hand, is inwardly focused. It is somewhat withdrawn, secretive, contemplative, philosophical and often eccentric. Your Personality is the part of you others notice when they first meet you. It is the "outer" you rather than the deeper, inner reflection. A 7 here creates an outer shell that may be difficult for some people to penetrate. It can also mask your sincere desire for interaction with others.

The 6/7 combination could be challenging to wrestle with. One side or the other will eventually need to give way. As a child, you probably experienced this polarity often. You may have been popular in one situation, while distant and unable to connect in another - or interacting easily one day, while quietly standing on the sideline the next. It is not uncommon for someone with these characteristics to live on the far edge of what is considered customary (especially if they experienced a difficult childhood). Fortunately, your 4 Expression almost certainly prevents you from drifting too far. It is your anchor.

Your 4 Expression reveals your strengths, talents, and shortcomings, particularly as they relate to your career and productive life. You are fortunate to have been given the grounded, stable, highly capable 4 to assist with the potential conflict created by your opposing 6 and 7. Teachers, coaches, counselors, psychologists, and advisors often have this combination in their charts. Perhaps their challenging early years inspired them to help others.

The 4 Expression/7 Personality combination suits the military and all big institutions. It is less suited to the corporate and financial world, despite its impressive financial and organizational capabilities. The 4 in particular may be too rigid for the creative requirements of most business-oriented corporations. They fit in well in institutions that require detail- oriented, systematic, and methodical talents.

Your 6 Heart's Desire needs close personal relationships. Family and friends are the major components for a fulfilled life and are your main stabilizing influence.
