For Day Forty-eights, the Major antagonises the Minor, and this has the effect of muting the expression of the Minor and slowing its resolution. Day Forty-eights may think it simpler to leave it up to luck to finish off what they have begun than work through things to the end. Day Forty-eights are slow to mature, in spite of the independence they show in their day-to-day activities. They find it hard to lose their innocent approach to life and duties. They can have energy and self-discipline when it comes to personal matters, but find it difficult to get to grips with team mangement. They draw enthusiasts around them, inspiring followers with the fun they can suggest though not necessarily create. They are tenacious to the idea of about drifting among events that interest them until the right plan for life comes along. They begin with distant and general goals for a happy life, and hope that the interesting things that happen to them in the present will point them towards these goals. The execution of their plans is often infected by the random element that they rather enjoy. They feel very attached to the mysterious energy of the unplanned social situation and are reluctant to lose contact with it, They expect social events to present interesting choices that they find it difficult to articulate for themselves alone. Beneath the surface of their fun-making there lie grave souls who ponder their place in the Universe and how to make their mark. They sense that somewhere there is a tide of history that they want to belong to. They are optimistic about people in general, and especially like to think of their friends as 'great', but dare not find out for sure what their deeper motivations actually are. They intensely dislike being criticised, and will simply move away from difficult people or those trying to boss them. They are stubborn in their desire to experience only the interesting things in life, regardless of how that is considered in their community or group. But they will always listen to advice from a trusted friend, especially if it is about careers. They like their art and music, and are happy to perform, although they may not rehearse their skills as much as they would like to. They like a feeling of belonging to a tradition of culture, and are happy to identify with it. They enjoy the incongruous, and look out for it everywhere. Being able to find a surreal circumstance confirms gives them a temporary sense of their own uniqueness. They are happy to take an opportunity merely because it seems interesting to them at the moment. But finding an opportunity that dispels some of the fog surrounding their future, gives them real joy and enormous enthusisam.
