Born on Saturday: steady people who keep going after others stop

What people born on Saturday are like

Saturday's people are the steady ones. Thai tradition describes them as patient, serious about their work and hard to knock off course. They keep going long after others have stopped, and you can rely on them when things get difficult.

They can take life a little too seriously and keep their worries to themselves. These are tendencies. Strong people can ask for help too, and rest is part of the work.

The colour of your day

Every day of the week in Thailand has a colour. Children learn it with the day's name, some people dress in it, and a gift in the colour of someone's birth day says you remember.

Saturday's colour is purple, deep and calm, a colour that takes its time.

It's everyday culture, nice to notice, and it won't decide anything for you.

A small thing to try this week

• Set aside one hour this week just for fun, and protect it.
• Tell someone close one thing that's been on your mind.
• Find something purple, like a flower, a pen or a sock, and let it remind you to slow down.
