These exuberant individuals relish the attention that their manifold interests, outgoing personalities and love of life attract. Their kindness and sense of fun make them popular companions, but unless these people keep their feet on the ground and develop a more pragmatic attitude their heads may be turned by the admiration that they inspire. In their efforts to entertain others (and humor is strongly indicated by this day) they have a tendency to become somewhat out of control.
This is not to say that people born on this day lack discipline (far from it), but if bored or frustrated they may either withdraw completely, succumb to temper tantrums or play the fool in an attempt to enliven things. Indeed, this need for stimulation is paramount for January 20 people, and when they find a sub- ject that truly interests them they display unusually intense powers of concentration and tenacity, rarely giving up on a task until it is completed.
Running parallel with these people’s capacity for solid, intellectual pursuits is a marked sensitivity for the feelings of others, as well as a desire to please their audience. These qualities mark them out as nat- ural performers and also indicate a latent talent for diplomacy and politics—particularly if they were born in the Chinese year of snake—areas in which their resilience, self-belief and aptitude for problem-solving may find their full expression.
In their personal relationships, people born on this day should cultivate patience and try to develop a more relaxed and accepting attitude toward both themselves and others.
