One of the greatest strengths of those born on January 14 is their ability to take in vast amounts of information and still see the bigger picture. They are shrewd judges of people and situations, and their inquisitive mind is forever hungry for new ideas, new information and new challenges. Because they have this panoramic view, they are particularly good at decision making. Their strong sense of right and wrong, combined with their highly developed sense of conviction and certainty, makes them excellent and much-sought-after peacemakers, both at home and at work.
Unfortunately the conviction and certainty possessed by those born on this day also have their attendant dangers. Once they have settled on a course of action, it is almost impossible for them to change course and they may go to extreme lengths to see things through to the bitter end. Ironically for people who are so uncompromising and committed in their work life, they aren’t always able to make that same level of commitment to their personal life. In fact their personal life definitely takes second place. This may be because they believe that emotions and connections with other people are a distraction from their primary purpose in life, but it may also be the result of a fear of being disappointed. The way forward for them is to apply the same level of commitment to potential friends and partners, and to learn to respect and appreciate the emotional support of others.
Although they appear to be extremely confident and have the ability to implement radical change, they are inwardly far more complex than they appear. Behind the solid, strong image and the apparent love of risk-taking and innovation lies a person who often feels misunderstood; these feelings are heightened if they haven’t found a direction in life to which to devote their considerable energies. Once they understand that it is not leadership, material wealth or high rank that they crave but personal freedom and the ability to bring about positive change in the world, they can leave their insecurities behind and achieve miracles.
☆ On the dark side:Stubborn, obsessed, insecure
☆ At your best: Peacemaker, inquisitive, risk-taker
