The single-minded focus with which those born on this day pursue the visions that inspire them is awesome in its intensity. Their fulfillment is bound up with the achievement of their goals. Some are determined to better themselves personally; others may be more concerned with benefiting society at large— but all show remarkable vigor and determination in working toward the realization of their aims. Many have identified their goals and principles early in life (perhaps as early as childhood). However, they are not coldly rational individuals—on the contrary, their aspirations usually reflect intuitive responses to the plight of those who are suffering from emotional or physical deprivation.
The careers to which December 24 individuals are drawn offer opportunities for initiating progress. Many will choose to work as commercial, technical, political or educational innovators, or as pioneers in the artistic realm. Coworkers may feel unable to match their dedication, and they often appear isolated within the professional sphere. However, they are positive, reliable people who make devoted friends, partners and especially parents, whose affection is reciprocated by their loved ones. Those born on this day draw upon their astute and rational intellectual talents in all that they do. Sometimes, however, they are so convinced of the veracity of their beliefs and so determined to effect their aims that they have a tendency to focus on their causes and ambitions to the exclusion of all else, including their own needs for physical relaxation and intellectual diversification. Variety is the spice of life!
