It may take another, but...

You enjoy getting things right. That's why you'll go back to a project you once abandoned, armed with new information and methods to try. Your perspective and attitude are steller. This time around you'll do better. It make take another, but you're certatinly on your way.

This is from an astrology column. In it, what does the pronoun 'another' mean?

I assume that "make" is your typo and that it should say "It may take another", per the subject line. It is still unclear, and appears to be an error (e.g. a missing word). As it stands, I understand "another" to mean "another person", but I have no great confidence that this is what was intended.

Thank you so much, GPY.
As you said, 'make' and 'steller' should have been written 'may,' 'stellar,' respectively. I'm sorry for causing you trouble.
I rechecked the sentences and found no errors other than these.

Just to round things off, there is also some slight finger trouble with "certatinly". Of course, this kind of typo is very easy for anyone to make, so I don't mean it as any kind of serious criticism!
