Psychic empath
With your smart and shrewd approach to life and a charming personality, you have a head start over others in your ability to succeed in life. Ambitious and broad-minded, with strong leadership potential, you prefer to give the orders, but may have to resist going too far and becoming bossy. Fortunately, a humanitarian side to your personality suggests that you are a good judge of character and enjoy helping others.
With the subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Virgo, you have a keen intellect and good communication skills. Your excellent sense of structure indicates that you possess natural business sense and a willingness to work hard for success. Practical and perceptive, you can make astute observations, but you may have to avoid a tendency to be critical. Common sense and good concentration imply that you are capable of deep thought and productive results.
Sociable and friendly, when relaxed you can also display an original sense of humor or satire. A tendency to disappointment or frustration, however, may sometimes drain you of your positivity. It is important to stay detached and see the larger picture. By being broad-minded, you can afford to be generous with others and show them a side to your nature that is warm, giving, and magnanimous. Inventive and with original ideas, you have the potential to inspire others with your enthusiasm and grand plans.

Business acumen and an instinct for money matters help you to become a good evaluator. This can extend to being a good judge of people and situations that combines well with your liberal outlook.

Be careful, however, that a touch of materialism does not distract you from your high aims.
Seeking adventure and change, you need variety in your life to prevent you from becoming bored. If too confined by structure or responsibilities, you may become restless and impatient. By striking a balance, you can avoid going to extremes and indulging yourself in material extravagances to make up for emotional dissatisfaction. By finding ways of expressing your dynamic sensitivity, you can use your subtle ability to enchant others. That ability, together with your fast responses enables you to keep others entertained and uplifted.

It is important in your relationships to keep a sense of balance. At times you may appear cool or detached and at other times you can be warm and caring. A vital part of your agenda is to have friends and partners who can keep challenging you mentally; otherwise you may become somewhat compulsive or argumentative. Working too hard and not giving your partners enough of your time can also present possible problems. It is better, therefore, to have companions who are also fairly independent in their own right. Nevertheless, you are loyal, loving, and a supportive friend and partner.

Their innate sense of fun and imaginative powers make these people fascinating to others and their company a pleasure. With lively minds, perceptive powers and a desire to explore the world, these people embrace the unusual with enthusiasm, and since they generally find it easy to communicate their ideas to others, will often have a rapt audience. Once they have found a subject that absorbs them, they will pursue it with determination, in doing so demonstrating an impressive level of tenacity and unflagging interest. Although highly self-disciplined, January 18 people chafe under the rules and regulations of others, particularly if they do not appreciate their underlying purpose, and unless they are truly convinced of the merits of a task will not thrive as part of a strictly regulated organization or team. Indeed, given the value that they place on independent thought and their highly developed sense of fantasy, people born on this day have a natural inclination toward such creative activities as writing, acting or painting.
It may take these people some time to find the métier that ideally suits their talents and inclinations, however, and the impatience that may be engendered by adverse circumstances may cause them either to give in to childish displays of willfulness, or to take refuge in their own private world. In children, these strong-willed tendencies may give their parents cause for concern, but such is the resourcefulness of these people that they will eventually find a fulfilling out- let for their intellectual and emotional requirements. They will be happiest if those around them respect their need for freedom, while at the same time provid- ing them with stability and support.
