Introduction
People needing Ocimum basilicum keep going in a hopeless situation seeking acknowledgement. They have a compassionate, social nature, serving others in order to be recognised, but they have problems making changes and evolving because they are fundamentally conservative and traditional. Values are important. They are devoted, self-sacrificing and of high moral feeling. They are more down to earth than for example Aristolochiaceae and ambitious in a simple way. They enjoy the good things in life. They are simple but have a royal aura.
