They are quite strong mentally and physically but they lack in emotions required to spark up life and build relationships. Their hard work and determination is not rewarded immediately. While they struggle with emotional involvement and expression, they do well in professional area of their life. They tend to realize their career ambitions, which are often driven by their strong urge for material possessions and comforts. These people tend to serve others, than start something of their own.
