Born on July 13

Cancer

You’re so gentle that the people around you find the nerve to start again. Soft voice, unshakeable resolve.

One bucket on a beach and the sandcastle gets a moat, a drawbridge and a flag, and every passer-by gets a job. That’s how they approach most things.

Ideas become real things in their hands and problems become plans, and someone born on the 13th is very hard to discourage. If a first attempt washes away, they start over and build it better.

They’re gentle with it all, the sort of gentle that makes people brave, and they feel your worries with you, not from a distance. Tell them your plan over the supper they insist on making; they’ll help you start.
