Competition outweighs cooperation in this natal chart by

Certainly it is heaven for those of us who thrive on competition and  
argument.
 
One time at Olcott, one of the little old ladies and I were talking and she  
asked me what I thought the first prerequisite of a Theosophist should be.   
Without missing a beat, I answered, "Bullheaded."
 
She laughed and agreed because we are the most stubborn, argumentative  
independent thinkers on the planet.  And we can get downright nasty at  times.
 
Now, for those of us who love and thrive on that environment, Theosophy is  a 
marvelous playground, but for folks who want a more placid existence, it is  
definitely not the place to be.
