People born on October 23 are sensual and attractive beings but also very calculated and self conscious. While they might appear as naturally friendly, they are actually very socially aware and critical. They feel most at ease when they are in charge of things that are connected to them and avoid having to deal with mediocre people. They can turn completely cold when betrayed but otherwise those close to them can benefit from their support and learn from their emotional intelligence that is above average.
Positive traits: Witty and great with words and body language, these natives have entangled personalities that unravel in time. Scorpio people are curious and they want to know everything that happens but in the same time they are very private when it comes to their own enterprises. Those born under this sign are also poised and faithful. Once someone wins their true dignity consideration they are sure to act very dignified and be a great company.
Negative traits:

They are clingy, jealous and possessive with their romantic interests but they are also very moody and things can transformation in a second. They are spiteful with those who turn their backs on them, even when they are the ones at fault.
Attractive and charming it is very difficult for someone to win their heart if they don't show the slightest interest. They don't settle for less than what they consider it's best for them. And they are a pretentious lover that is sometimes prone to controlling behavior and jealousy fits. Freedom lover, they have an immense love for change and adventure and they will experience many love relationships in their life, that they will consider important. If they settle for one person, they will probably be hard to understand and they will still be governed by selfishness. They are most compatible with those born on 1st, 2nd, 8th, 10th, 11th, 19th, 20th, 28th and 29th.

In love, Scorpio is in a constant search for stability and protection and the best to offer them this is the native in Taurus.

Vidar
Vidar (pronounced VEE-dar; from Old Norse Víðarr, which might mean The Wide-Ruling One) is one of the younger generation of gods who survive Ragnarok, the cataclysmic end of the Norse mythological cycle. Virtually all of the references to him in Old Norse literature are concerned with his role in Ragnarok; we know little to nothing of his personality or function outside of that one particular episode.
During Ragnarok, the gods the divine forces who uphold the cosmic order and the giants the divine forces of chaos and destruction battled, and most of those involved on both sides were slain. The god Odin was devoured by the wolf Fenrir. Vidar, a son of Odin by the giantess Gríðr, immediately set upon the wolf to avenge his fathers death. He wore a shoe that had been crafted for this particular moment. It was the strongest and sturdiest of all shoes, and surely also charged with magical properties. With it, Vidar kicked open the wolfs lower jaw, and then, holding the beasts upper jaw open, he sliced Fenrirs mouth to pieces with his sword, killing the monster and ending his devastating rampage.
Elsewhere, Vidar is called the silent god, although no explanation for this epithet is given. He is said to be the strongest of the gods after Thor. His land is described as a place of brushwood and tall grass,but the significance of the association of this particular kind of landscape and this god is unknown.
Celtic Animal Sign: BUTTERFLY
September 30 - October 27
This Celtic animal sign always stays in contact with loved ones (they're the ones always with a quill writing). They can't help it. Butterflies are gentle souls who can't be tied down for very long. They love to dream, express new ideas and talk about high- falutin plans. They would never intentionally harm anyone. Butterflies bring a sense of wonder and youth to the world.

INTJ
Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Judging
To outsiders, INTJs may appear to project an aura of "definiteness", of self-confidence. This self-confidence, sometimes mistaken for simple arrogance by the less decisive, is actually of a very specific rather than a general nature; its source lies in the specialized knowledge systems that most INTJs start building at an early age. When it comes to their own areas of expertise -- and INTJs can have several -- they will be able to tell you almost immediately whether or not they can help you, and if so, how. INTJs know what they know, and perhaps still more importantly, they know what they don't know.
INTJs are perfectionists, with a seemingly endless capacity for improving upon anything that takes their interest. What prevents them from becoming chronically bogged down in this pursuit of perfection is the pragmatism so characteristic of the type: INTJs apply (often ruthlessly) the criterion "Does it work?" to everything from their own research efforts to the prevailing social norms. This in turn produces an unusual independence of mind, freeing the INTJ from the constraints of authority, convention, or sentiment for its own sake.
Personal relationships, particularly romantic ones, can be the INTJ's Achilles heel. While they are capable of caring deeply for others (usually a select few), and are willing to spend a great deal of time and effort on a relationship, the knowledge and self-confidence that make them so successful in other areas can suddenly abandon or mislead them in interpersonal situations. This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship).
To complicate matters, INTJs are usually extremely private people, and can often be naturally impassive as well, which makes them easy to misread and misunderstand.
Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense.
This sometimes results in a peculiar naivete', paralleling that of many Fs -- only instead of expecting inexhaustible affection and empathy from a romantic relationship, the INTJ will expect inexhaustible reasonability and directness.
Minerva has always been a socially awkward child. She loves her family dearly but has always preferred the company of older adults like her grandparents or the company of animals to children her own age. She is clever but comes across as aloof and abrupt-- she does not feel comfortable with trying to make friends. It's an exhausting effort that fills her with anxiety. Being naturally introverted Minerva would welcome perhaps a very small select few friends but no more than that.
She likes order and rules and takes things very literally, so that her family have learned to phrase things in a particular way for her. She loves smooth jazz music and anything with the piano. She likes to sing but not publicly, its for her own enjoyment only. Minerva loves to read and can usually be found with her head buried inside a book.
It has taken her some time to learn about sarcasm and sometimes this still goes over her head completely. Jokes are also not her forte, she often will ask after telling a joke why someone found it funny and tends to take notes afterwards in order to better tell the same joke later. She doesnt have the greatest sense of humour but she does try to understand why people see the funny side in things.
Minerva likes to dance and has great rhythm but she prefers dancing when no one can see her. She is always eager to learn new things and absorbs information like a sponge. She likes to watch butterflies and is fascinated by all insects and animals. She adores horses, unicorns and griffins. She loves the colour black and she loves raindrops trickling down a window.
She is a champion of the underdog and cannot bare to see any injustice done to anyone or anything. She does not lie, not even to save herself from a punishment. Her parents did bring her to St. Mungos to see if there was any potion or spell that could assist her and with the help of the healers there, she has been able to take a draught that alleviates much but not all of her anxieties. It will however assist her in her worst moments.

KHULIK
Of all the Anglo-Saxon names to come from Britain, Khulik is one of the most ancient. The name is a result of the original family having lived in Kilnwick in the East Riding of Yorkshire. They are now found in Humberside, a new county formed after the reorganization of local government in England in 1974. The place-name is based on the Old English personal name Cylla and means 'Farm of a man named Cylla'. Kilnwick was recorded as Chileuuit in the Domesday Book in 1086 and as Killingwic in the 12th century. The surname Kulick was first found in Yorkshire in Kilnwick, a village and parish in the Yorkshire wolds. Many provincial dialects dropped the final N of Kiln and the W in the termination.
When the Gregory and Nathanial Kulick were born in the 1890, one was magical and the other was a muggle. Nathanial was sent away to an orphanage and his family told everyone that he had died in a tragic accident when visiting distant relations. He was adopted as luck would have it by a squib Thomas Wickens who adopted him mainly to help around his farm. When Nathaniel was old enough he attended magic school, retuning to the farm only on summer holidays. Once old enough he changed his name from Nathaniel Kulick to Nathan Khulik and left the shores of England to seek a better life elsewhere.
Though many were still going to America to seek their fortune, Nathan went to the other end of the world, as far away from his past life as he could possibly go. He arrived in New Zealand in the summer of 1908. There he would eventually buy some land and build himself his own farm, marry and have children of his own. The Khulik family grew steadily and quietly, spreading from New Zealand to other parts of the world.
BENNETT
The Bennett surname is dervied from the Latin given name Benedictus, which means 'blessed'. It became a common given name throughout Europe due to the popularity of St. Benedict. The surname was first found in north Lancashire where a Benedictine monastery known as Furness Abeey was by founded by the Savigny monks of Normandy in 1127. Many Bennetts thrived in England and parts of Europe but it was not until the 17th century that branches of the family began to spread out, venturing to America. It was not until 1823 that 13 year old James Bennett was sentenced for life to Tasmania from London. The ship never made it and due to storms at sea was set on course instead for New Zealand. Many died on the ship but James Bennett survived. He lived in abject poverty for a long time before getting a job helping in the lighthouse in Tauranga. He eventually took over the running of the lighthouse in his 40's and settled down with a Cornish woman of the name Mary Pennow. They worked the lighthouse together and soon had a family.
Henry and Thomas Bennett were the first magical children of that lineage, their parents were supportive and for generations the Bennetts grew up and ran the lighthouse and a nearby sheep farm. Thomas's son Frederick married a maori woman - they had twins both of which were also magical. From that day to the early 20th century, the Bennett line direct from the father has produced only children with magical blood.
When Henry Bennett and his wife, Stella Ward had three girls, neither were magical and for the next several generations no magic born came to be. Not until the birth of Agaranez in 1997 to Dedalus Bennett and Lorgana Riki.

He arrived in New Zealand in the summer of 1908. There he would eventually buy some land and build himself his own farm, marry and have children of his own. The Khulik family grew steadily and quietly, spreading from New Zealand to other parts of the world.
BENNETT
The Bennett surname is dervied from the Latin given name Benedictus, which means 'blessed'. It became a common given name throughout Europe due to the popularity of St. Benedict. The surname was first found in north Lancashire where a Benedictine monastery known as Furness Abeey was by founded by the Savigny monks of Normandy in 1127. Many Bennetts thrived in England and parts of Europe but it was not until the 17th century that branches of the family began to spread out, venturing to America. It was not until 1823 that 13 year old James Bennett was sentenced for life to Tasmania from London. The ship never made it and due to storms at sea was set on course instead for New Zealand. Many died on the ship but James Bennett survived. He lived in abject poverty for a long time before getting a job helping in the lighthouse in Tauranga. He eventually took over the running of the lighthouse in his 40's and settled down with a Cornish woman of the name Mary Pennow. They worked the lighthouse together and soon had a family.
Henry and Thomas Bennett were the first magical children of that lineage, their parents were supportive and for generations the Bennetts grew up and ran the lighthouse and a nearby sheep farm. Thomas's son Frederick married a maori woman - they had twins both of which were also magical. From that day to the early 20th century, the Bennett line direct from the father has produced only children with magical blood.
When Henry Bennett and his wife, Stella Ward had three girls, neither were magical and for the next several generations no magic born came to be. Not until the birth of Agaranez in 1997 to Dedalus Bennett and Lorgana Riki.
