You can't get a handle on this soar-away bird. January 21 is unpredictable, multi-talented and needs to fly his or her own course, untrammelled by advisors and freeloaders. They are like storm petrels: brave, neatly designed, fast of flight but very private and better spotters of opportunities for life enhancement than most other birds.
The storm petrel follows great ships, picking up food and living sometimes by others' wits. And this is often what January 21 does, at least at the start of adult life, attaching itself to a mentor, acquiring know-how, then flying away to establish its own empire. Many have an excellent design eye, and excel in music, painting and writing. If they make careers in these areas, they institute a new way of seeing things. Whatever happens, when January 21 takes a job, however mundane, she always brings special vitality, changing it to make everything better for the company and those around her.
Spot January 21 giving advice both at work and at home. In particular the women seem to draw others to them, always full of reassurance, praise and comfort. They want the best for everybody and will often put themselves out both in terms of energy and even financially to help. When January 21 has children, it is her house that is full of their friends, because they find her delightful to be around and unfailingly interested in whatever they do. Moreover, when they get to teenage years, this woman praises their achievements just as much as her own children's.
Because they are so idealistic, many people born today will work in areas which can do the community some good. They may found special schools, or promote young people's music. They are frequently found at the heart of a worthwhile enterprise. Yet neither sex suffers from the do-gooder's coercive desire to make others agree. Theirs is the view that conversation and ideas are at their best when founded on civilised disagreement.
Your gregarious, freewheeling, somewhat flirtatious manner attracts people and makes them want to get to know you better. In an intimate relationship you’re warm and loving but also independent and anxious to maintain your personal space. More in tune with your mind and body than your feelings, you tend to be rather inhibited emotionally. Sentimentality and the hearts and flowers generally associated with romance hold little appeal for you. You much prefer the love and intellectual companionship of a bright, witty partner who is capable of sharing your varied interests.
Emotionally aloof yet intellectually progressive, you’re one of the foremost sexual experimenters of the zodiac. Yet you find the emotional closeness of intimacy challenging and uncomfortable. The promise of physical sex by itself may not be enough to divert your attention from a new book or the latest electronic toy. Your desires are more readily aroused by the possibility of forging a complete mental and physical union with your partner.
January 21 is interested in health and tries to manage his or her own well-being with a combination of good doctoring, attention to diet and exercise and some alternative medicines. Many are attracted to the use of perfumed essential oils, believing that these oils bring great benefit both physically and mentally. Around the house, or at work if at all possible, they will use essential oil burners to promote good feelings for themselves, friends and family. Favourite everyday oils include cedarwood with its distinctive woody smell like freshly sharpened pencils. It promotes calmness and erases nervous tension. Eucalyptus stimulates the nervous system and promotes a clear head.
A cerebral type of lover definitely has the edge with you. Sure, you respond to a light, feathery stroking of your skin, especially the calves, ankles, and behind the knees. But what really gets you going are erotic whisperings in your ears, not of sweet nothings, but of the sweet somethings that stimulate your mind as well as your body.
Sometimes January 21 feels weighed down by other's problems. Its important not to allow the empathetic side of their nature to absorb too much woe and they must learn sometimes to kindly keep others' distress at bay, avoiding over-exposure.
You have a cheerful, easygoing manner and gift for gab that endears you to all kinds of people. Inherently bright and quick thinking, you are unabashedly curious about everything and everyone. Although devoted to friends and family, you’re self-motivated with an extremely low threshold for boredom and routine. If life at home gets too dull and tedious, your freewheeling nature may prompt you to seek out more interesting and intellectually stimulating companionship.
