Cliques hold sway in many places, like dry-rot in an administration, stifling enterprise and initiative and preventing independence of character or mind. Every clique is a refuge for incompetence, fostering disloyalty, cowardice and becoming a burden.
Sun Sign: Capricorn/Saturn

They have good minds and while they have no great ambition to seize fame and power, sometimes it's thrust upon them for their remarkable problem-solving abilities and capacity to communicate ideas. Indeed, January 16 is the communicator's day, not a typical Capricorn talent, but very dominant here.
As children January 16 people may not all be conventionally brilliant at school, but a good teacher can spot their outstanding talent if they look hard enough. What they are is ‘different'. Sometimes both sexes feel so ‘different’ it upsets them. They have a deep need for their talents to be acknowledged. But generally this o creature learns to make use of her other, original view of the world, and turns this freshness to her advantage.
Those around this individual soon understand that this is a special psycheology with farseeing qualities which are extremely useful in sorting out difficult situations. At work, January 16 is never involved in gossip, but can manoeuvre her way through politics with dexterity and often puts a stop to unpleasantness. He abhors bullying and sabotaging, feeling tremendous contempt for those who indulge in them. Our Capricorn baby is sufficiently talented not to need to undermine others, and in spite of early self-doubt, he knows it.
Most are animal lovers and will own as many as is practical if they live in the country, where a good number of 16s are at their happiest. But their kindness is not confined to animals. Friends or relatives in need find shelter with 16 whose idea of fun is to live in an extended family. Expect to find in their house somebody else's grown up child who's staying for a few months, a spouse's brother or sister, mothers- and fathers-in-law and anybody else who comes along.
Naturally, this means that January 16 doesn't have heaps of money. If they need more they can make it by freelance, often writing or designing, sometimes house improvement of some sort.
Your deepest desire is to love and be loved. However, there’s an aspect of caution to your makeup that makes it difficult for you to follow through on these feelings. Because you are more independent and require more time for yourself than the average Capricorn, you select your companions with considerable care. In a love union, you’re affectionate and devoted, with a humorous, whimsical side that makes you lots of fun to be with. Despite your tender heart and poetic soul, you’re drawn to a more intellectual type who can provide understanding and mental rapport.
You’re not one to jump in and out of casual affairs, but neither are you predisposed to fall obsessively in love. You are as discriminating and selective in love as you are in other life areas. You’re less conservative and more open to alternate ideas and sexual experimentation than most other goats. Even so, your sexual activity may fluctuate wildly between extremes, as you try to balance your passionate nature with your need for occasional periods of solitude
January 16 crams so much into life they dont have time to solve their own problems. Post natal blues can afflict anyone, especially those who are unprepared. A GP must be consulted, but some preparation can be made to ward off the blues by taking vitamins B and E, exercising gently and avoiding sudden weight loss. Women who go back on the Pill should know that it depletes four essential brain nutrients, vitamins B6, B12, C and folk acid, so should take multivitamins and mineral supplements. Massage the body with essential oils which counteract negative feelings: bergamot, camomile, geranium, lavender, lemon, neroli, orange and especially tangerine.
Given your love of nature and lust for adventure, your favorite sexual playground may well be outdoors under the stars. Because you dislike the feeling of being trapped, either emotionally or physically, you respond more readily to a relaxed, lighthearted approach to lovemaking than to one that is clingy or exceedingly needy.

You’re an intensely private person with a tendency to feel misunderstood and unappreciated by those you love. Consequently, you sometimes believe you would be happier on your own. However, your inclination toward overanalyzing relationships can only lead to loneliness and possible depression. What you really need is to find a partner who understands your moodiness and respects your desire for some personal freedom.
