People born on December 28 tend to impress others greatly with their energy and clear sense of direction. They are a shining example of calmness, self-assurance and dependability to whom people often turn for support or advice during a crisis; and that support is typically given without hesitation.
The image that they tend to present to the world is one of capability and sophistication, but their competent exterior can often mask their intense search for a deeper and more fulfilling meaning to their lives. Their charismatic presence can have both a positive and a negative effect for them: positive, in that they gain enormous satisfaction from helping or motivating others; negative, in that their concern for the well-being of others may often cause them to neglect their own needs. Their careers, or having a family, will often give them a way of uniting these external and internal orientations with outstanding results, so they don’t constantly feel torn between the two.
As self-assured individuals, they have the ability to inspire confidence and even awe in those around them by means of their incredible perception, compassion and real desire to help others progress. They would be almost perfect if it were not for the fact that they find it incredibly hard to deal with rejection and, instead of fighting back, will often slump into depression, bouts of uncertainty or confusion. They can also give the impression that they have all the answers, which is of course not the case. This over-confidence can alienate even those who previously championed them.
After the age of twenty-four there are opportunities for them to become less concerned about the image they are presenting to the world and more concerned about expressing their individuality. They should take advantage of these opportunities because, once they have recognized that personal fulfillment and being of service to others are not incompatible but highly compatible human needs, they can unlock their potential to be shining and inspirational examples to others.
☆ On the dark side:Over-confident, fragile, serious
☆ At your best:Inspiring, sophisticated, confident
Those born on December 28 are able to convey a solid, direct energy to their endeavors and do it in an elegant way. Their sophistication is based on an absolute assurance of who they are and what they can accomplish. Often they are able to build on a childhood background which, even if unexciting, gives them the stability they need to embark on a career and eventually form their own family unit. Indeed those born on this day rarely forget their roots or make an effort to cover them up. Their earthiness is at once unassuming and empowering.
December 28 people are hard workers. Serious about what they do, they refuse to be sidetracked by frivolous pursuits. Although they do like like to have fun, they know when to draw the line (usually at the point where their work begins to suffer). December 28 people have an abundance of energy, but usually have to concentrate it in one pursuit in order to be maximally effective. They suffer, as does their work, if they spread themselves too thin and try to take on too many projects. They must especially beware of overconfidence.
Another weakness of many December 28 people is an inability to deal with serious setbacks.
Because they so often see their lives in clearly denned terms and feel that they have prepared for all eventualities, they may get bewildered and dejected when unexpected or repeated opposition arises to their plans. In the case of rivals, competitors or outright enemies, those born on December 28 may not give sufficient thought to the motivations of their opponent, concentrating on their own activity to the exclusion of all else. As regards friends, co-workers and family members, they may well figure the welfare of others into their success equation but miss the fact that some wish to tend to their own welfare personally, without any outside help.
Those born on this day must be extremely wary of creating the impression that they know better or have all the answers. Learning to allow others to shine, indeed demonstrating an interest in the outlook and opinions of others is crucial to their being well-liked. Being able to show need, and occasionally ask for help in simple terms, allows others to get close to them in a really human way.
Thus, much of what insures career success for December 28 people may work against them in their personal lives. Many people will be attracted to their competent and stable qualities, but perhaps for the wrong reasons, and those born on this day may wind up with partners who either admire them and serve them or envy them and drain their energy. Therefore, those December 28 people who find an equal partner with whom they can relate on an equal level are indeed blessed.
December 28 people like to be appreciated, like anyone else, and can suffer deeply if their better qualities go unnoticed. Learning to share common experiences, establish solid friendships and come down off their pedestal a bit by letting go of misplaced ideas about themselves can all contribute to making them feel more happy and loved.

Those born on the 28th day of the month are ailed by the number 1 (2+8=10, 1+0=1 ). and by the Sun. The Sun symbolizes strong creative energy and fire, which should be kept flowing steadily rather than allowed to sporadically flare out of control. Those ailed by the number 1 generally like to be first, are of a definite viewpoint and eager to rise to the top. Yet the combination of the Sun and Saturn (ruler of Capricorn) may make December 28 people prone to hero worship I sometimes of the parent of the same sex) and wary of competition.
The 1st card of the Major Arcana is The Magician, who symbolizes intellect, communication, information, as well as magic. Over his head is an infinity symbol, which in some Tarot decks takes the form of a hat, in others a halo. Many interpretations may be drawn, one of which is that the Magician recognizes the cyclical and unending nature of life and is empowered by this understanding. The positive traits suggested by this first card include diplomatic skill and shrewdness but. negatively, lack of scruples and opportunism.

People born on this day are often passionate about music, and listening to music can be a great morale booster when life knocks them back. Owning a pet, in particular a dog, may also be helpful for them as it will encourage them to express their playful, spontaneous side. As far as their diet is concerned, they should aim for as much variety as possible and not stick to the same meal plans and menus time and time again. Variety is also the key when it comes to exercise; if they have been doing the same kind of exercise routine for years they are strongly advised to cross-train and find another way to challenge themselves physically. Not only will this boost efforts at weight loss if they have weight to lose, but it will also encourage them to take on new and different challenges in other areas of their lives. Wearing, meditating on and surrounding themselves with the color orange will encourage them to be more spontaneous, and a few drops of jasmine oil on a handkerchief to breathe in will lift their spirits when life seems to be working against them.

In addition, they can suffer from eliminative disorders such as constipation, and venous circulatory problems. Attempts at self-control can work against them in physical respects. December 28 people should perhaps allow themselves to be more spontaneous and even, in certain cases, impulsive. All team and competitive sports are highly recommended to bring them into close contact with others and allow them to discover their more aggressive side. Likewise, they should share food interests and cooking, and open up their more traditional diet to include exotic and unusual tastes as well. Hulk vegetables and other high-fiber foods are recommended.
These people are often attracted to fields where they can help, guide, enlighten, or delight others, and they may choose careers in the arts, the media, fashion, communications, or spiritual studies. Possible work options include teaching, writing, acting, singing, journalism, charity work, social reform, and the healing and caring professions.
The life path of people born on this day is to learn from their mistakes instead of repeating them. Once they have found a balance between their own needs and those of others, their destiny is to guide, enlighten and delight others.
Avoid oscillating between worship and superiority; aim to interact on an equal level. Take the time to explain yoursell and be convincing. Listen to objections and do something about them.
