Brief description
Brave, positive, sociable, mysterious, mystic, daring. Their motto: I dare to think of everything!
Strengths
People born in the sign of Cypress enjoy life with its ups and downs. Their aim is self-realization and optimal development of their skills and their strongest strength is independence. They love their freedom and independence but they need great acclaim, emotional warmth and positive attitude of the others – which they usually get because they are able to create a positive and mystic aura around themselves that enchants the others. Cypresses live their own, daring, artistic style and they disregard conventions. They care about common sense but they do not follow established tracks and they are not pragmatic in this way. They have lots of ideas, they are intuitive and refreshingly emotional. They are not afraid of obscure, mysterious aspects of human existence. They dare to think of everything therefore they are thrive to face the opposites. They have strong natural thinking, they are in close contact with their surroundings and they have a constant intellectual exchange with their friends and partners. They are considered smart, sociable and a bit mysterious people.
Weak points
Cypresses fear to lose their individuality which may result in efforts to stand out in any case. An unmanageable desire for freedom can lead to the inability to settle down. Cypresses constantly long for a change and they are interested in unusual and mysterious things which makes them a bit egocentric and "normal" people are afraid of them. The behaviour of these people is arbitrary and unpredictable. They respond to requirements or pressure with strong disgust and mocking sarcasm. Even though they have a social feeling and they love justice, in conflicts they can be very unscrupulous.
What should Cypresses be careful about?
Their hallmark is mystery – they actually symbolize the abysses of the soul. Trees manifest their desire for the light and the sun – Humans, in the figurative sense, long for knowledge and positive energy. They long for a liberating exception from stupid rules. We should not take away this desire from the Cypresses otherwise they will languish. Cypresses have difficulties with dealing with "normal" conditions – they need a myth, touch and magic of the irrational. They also need – more than other signs – art and culture because this is the right food for their mysterious personality that cannot stand ordinariness. They love witty games and fun – and to some extent they like delights. On the other hand a cypress is a cemetery tree – it is a symbol of transience. However, people of this sign rarely fear death. The death comes at the end of one´s life. Before it actually happens they want to live – without false compromises and concessions.
Young Cypresses should pay attention to the fact that their interest in mysterious matters may lay an obscure shadow on their soul. However, it is necessary to support them in their unbridled desire to learn about all aspects of life. Trees do not like frost; for a human it is a prolonged danger of emotional coldness. They must escape from such environment as soon as possible.
