According to Javanese belief, people born on Pon Friday need a wide circle of friends. They are said to be quiet, thoughtful, and wise of word. These are humanitarian types, pure and honest at heart, whose sympathies are easily aroused by the downtrodden masses. They may adapt easily to the people around them, molding themselves to situations like human chameleons. Nevertheless, this very strength is also their greatest potential weakness, for without a strong sense of self these people are too easily influenced by the opinions and negative habits of others.
