Born on Sunday: generous, and a little too proud to ask for help

What people born on Sunday are like

Thai tradition pictures Sunday's people as the ones who walk into a room and warm it up. They're generous and sure of themselves, and they'll take the lead when nobody else will. They like things done properly, and when they say they'll do something, they usually do it.

That confidence comes with pride. People born on Sunday find it hard to ask for help, so they often carry more than their share. Treat all of this as a tendency you can work with: it points to where you shine and where you could go easier on yourself.

The colour of your day

Every day of the week has its own colour in Thailand. Children learn the colours along with the names of the days, some people dress in the colour of the day, and a present in the colour of someone's birth day shows you remembered.

Sunday's colour is red, bright and open, which suits a day many families spend together.

It's a piece of everyday culture and nice to notice. It doesn't promise you anything.

A small thing to try this week

• Ask for help with one thing you'd normally do alone, and let the other person do it their way.
• Give away one compliment you'd usually keep to yourself.
• Wear or carry something red this week, maybe a scarf, a mug or a pen, and see who notices.
