Those born on January 11 have a natural talent for assessing every situation and measuring everyone they meet. They find little difficulty in discarding what isn’t needed and see to the heart of people and situations, judging them according to their own very high standards. When the formidable powers of perception of people born on this day are combined with their great intelligence, this results in individuals who are outstanding decision makers.
Underlying this talent for assessment is a strong sense of justice that always strives to be fair. They feel compelled to do the right thing in life and to pass judgment but sometimes they can have problems distinguishing what the right thing or judgment is for them and what the right thing is for others. As a result they can easily convince themselves into thinking that they need to take responsibility for everyone and everything; this is when problems can start, as it can lead to domineering or controlling behavior and the belief that their word really is the law.
It is important for people born on this day to learn to pronounce their opinions less forcibly so that they do not offend those who do not share their point of view. This won’t always be easy, but alongside their inflexibility there is also a very caring and compassionate nature. If they can tap more into that, they will begin to understand that it is not just their right, but everybody’s right, to have a difference of opinion. Typically around the age of forty, often sooner, their emotional sensitivity becomes stronger and they develop a more powerful inner life.
Those born on this day place high standards on others but they place even higher standards upon themselves. Because they have the courage and determination to live up to these standards, they often do find themselves in the very position they crave: that of the judgment maker. Others will seek them out for advice, judgment and, when they learn to be a little less inflexible, inspiration.
☆ On the dark side:Dominating, stubborn, superior
☆ At your best:Balanced, objective, fair
It is the forte of the strong-willed, highly capable individuals born on January 11 to be able to accurately size up and evaluate the people and life experiences they meet. January 11 people often pride themselves on their unbiased approach to life but to the extent that their perceptions are dominated by their belief system, their objectivity can be clouded. Those born on this day who can put their personal beliefs aside more often can more evenly assess what they see around them.
A difficulty for many January 11 people is that they are highly moral, and to that extent rigid in their condemnation of what does not fit their beliefs. This can be hard on their children, in particular, since condemnation not only imbues children with feelings of guilt but also eats away at their self-confidence and ability to function as independent individuals. January 11 parents must therefore avoid placing themselves high in the judgmeni seat as such a stance ultimately foments antagonisms and rebellion.
When it comes to appraising texts, objects, methods, finances and systems of all sorts with which they are familiar. January 11 people really shine. In their area of expertise they are often sought out by others to render expert opinions, perhaps on the value of objects and investments or the quality- and authenticity of writings, crafts and arts. They display excellent analytical abilities and are skilled judges in this respect, calmly separating the wheat from the chaff. Those born on this day can usually spot something phony in an instant, and thus are extremely valuable when the task at hand is weeding out waste or corruption. Indeed, January 11 people are very hard to fool when it comes to most matters.
Unfortunately, those born on this day can be truly hard-headed and stubborn. They know what they know, and that's it. Very little is left open for discussion where their mind is made up. They may, however, speak with the same degree of confidence and sense of infallibility when discussing matters they know little or nothing about. This can drive others crazy, but they themselves often just calmly repeat themselves and stand firm. Unless proven wrong, what they say may be taken for the gospel.
The crying need ofJanuary 1 1 people is to develop greater flexibility. Because they already show marked human qualities of generosity, kindness and devotion, it is really only their judgmental attitudes which keep them from being even more open and accepting. Prejudices and rigidly held opinions can only stand in the way of those born on this day exercising their strength, that is. apprehending life experiences with insight and clarity of vision. Although great persistence and patience will be needed. January 1 1 people may be able to develop a more open mind through applying their own evaluative talents and analytical abilities to themselves.
Power Thought:Today I will take it easy on myself and everyone else,Having as few preconceptions as possible allows one to breathe fresher air
Those born on the 11th day of the month are ailed by the number 2 (1 + 1=2). and by the Moon. Those ruled by the number 2 often make good co-workers and partners, rather than leaders. In the case of January 11 people, who may be loners (due to the added influence of Saturn, ruler of Capricorn), Moon influences may manifest as an insight into how society operates and how to define their own societal role. Those born on this day most often make excellent, faithful mates. Not uncommonly the number 1 1 indicates an interest in twins, coincidences, symmetry, mirror images or other doubles.

Once people born on January 11 find a partner who can stimulate their mind or inspire them creatively, they are extremely loyal and devoted. Although relating comes naturally to them, they can at times be reluctant to open up emotionally. There is also a danger that they can take on too much responsibility for the relationship; they need to learn sometimes to stand back, open their heart and let their partner take the lead.
These people need to be extremely careful that they don’t suffer from compassion overload, by wearing themselves out caring for others or fighting for their rights. They need to learn to let go every now and again and to care for their own needs, both physical and emotional. When it comes to diet, they need to avoid anything restrictive or excessive and enjoy a balanced and varied diet; perhaps with a multi-vitamin and mineral to guard against nutritional deficiencies. They should also make sure they get regular, gentle exercise. Burning candles scented with cypress, clary sage, jasmine, coriander, cloves or sandalwood and wearing, meditating or surrounding themselves with the color silver should help them feel more secure and at peace.
Those born on January 11 often devote themselves to the care of others and can wear themselves out doing so. They must learn to relax and take vacations from their work. In addition they have to let up from time to time, and have enough faith to allow things to run by themselves. Certain physical manifestations of their psychological rigidity may manifest, particularly affecting the bones and skeletal system as they get older. As far as diet is concerned, January 11 people must avoid restrictedness here as well and be open to new recipes and in general new approaches to food and cooking. A highly varied, well-balanced diet is best for them. They should make an effort to get regular mild to moderate physical exercise—particularly walking and swimming are recommended.
People born on this day are drawn toward careers where they can help others. Their compassion means that they excel in education, teaching or careers working with children or students, counseling or psychology. They may also be drawn to careers in research in which they can use their sharp, incisive mind, or careers in which they can fight injustice, such as politics, social work, law or even the clergy. They also make fine alternative therapists and astrologers, and their skill in communication suggests a knack for writing, music and the arts.
Once they have learned to develop compassion and sensitivity toward the weaknesses of others, the life path of people born on this day is to fight injustice in the world and right wrongs. By so doing they will discover their destiny, which is to help others turn hopes and dreams into practical reality.
