Maverick mystic
Clever, intuitive, and a strong individualist, you are knowledgeable with quick perceptions. Your Aquarius birthday implies that you are independent, with an ability to lead, and that you would rather take charge than answer to superiors. Assertive, with common sense, you are usually willing to work hard to achieve your objectives. With your outstanding intellect and intuition, you have only to develop the necessary self-discipline to fulfill your remarkable potential.
With the added influence of your Sun in the decanate of Aquarius, you are friendly, outgoing, and people-oriented. Able to present a unique approach to a problem, you can give others practical advice and solutions. You may also have a more unusual or eccentric side to your nature. Your individualistic thinking can place you ahead of your time, although there is also a danger of becoming stubborn or rebellious.
By a tenacious pursuit of your plans, you develop the patience and perseverance required to attain your long-term goals. With an objective and inventive mind, you can have flashes of genius and your instincts about other people are usually right. As a good judge of character, you are straightforward and outspoken. Your original perspective can inspire you to instigate reform and renew outdated systems. Women of this day tend to think in a decisive way and often take command of situations rather than be passive observers.
Until you reach the age of twenty-three your progressed Sun is in Aquarius, highlighting issues of personal freedom, friendship, and expressing your individuality. At the age of twenty-four, when your progressed Sun moves through Pisces, you become more emotionally sensitive, develop a greater sense of vision, or have more access to your inner world. At the age of fifty-four there is a turning point as your progressed Sun enters Aries. This influence can start to make you more confident, assertive, and ambitious, possibly initiating or leading new activities.

When you have set yourself a definite goal, you can be determined and uncompromising in achieving your objectives. This same resolve can help you overcome obstacles in your life and make you capable of great accomplishments. Enjoying power, you like to be in control but should avoid becoming involved in tactics or psychological games. Your strong sense of duty and desire for material success suggest that you take your work or responsibilities seriously.
Although independent, you usually work well in group situations or partnerships. As a good team member, you understand the dynamics of compromise in a working relationship. Although you do not suffer fools gladly, you usually achieve more when you use your inherent diplomatic skills rather than take a dogmatic approach. When dealing with people on a one-to-one basis, you have the skill to make others feel special.
Your keen intelligence is likely to be the strongest influence on the career you choose. Needing work that keeps you mentally stimulated, you can be clever, responsible, and hardworking.

Perhaps the strongest characteristic of January 27 people is their inherent need to be challenged and stimulated, and this is often manifested by a ceaseless questing to experience and master all that life has to offer. Running parallel to their strong sense of purpose and deep desire to succeed is a pronounced streak of courage, which enables them doggedly, and sometimes apparently recklessly, to tread new paths without being deflected from their purpose. Yet although they are daring, those born on this day will generally not take chances without first having weighed up the risks and having carefully examined potential pitfalls. Although they are personally ambitious, these people are rarely motivated by a desire for financial reward, instead being driven by a desire to test and prove themselves. Their intellectual talents, including those of perceptiveness and objectivity, suit them for most professions, that is, as long as their attention is held and they are allowed to be creative.
Away from work, these people greatly enjoy the good things of life and as appreciative gourmets are ever willing to sample new sensual experiences. Unusually, for such active people, their propensity for self-indulgence and love of luxury can seduce them into idleness, especially if they were born in the Chi- nese year of the snake. Generous to a fault, they are deeply attached to their family and friends, desiring their happiness above all. In turn—perhaps as a result of their intellectual restlessness—they need a stable and secure personal life, and to receive the constant reassurance and encouragement of those closest to them, as well as the occasional firm hand.
