These dynamic people have a burning desire to impose their own stamp on all that they undertake, confident as they are in the truth of their convictions. Although they will have arrived at their judgments by means of reasoned thought, January 30 people rely on their instincts to guide them, and often retrospectively justify their initial responses with rational arguments. This remarkable ability to channel their sensitivity through their intellects and then transmit their opinions lucidly and convincingly is a rare one, and will gain them acclaim, especially when employed in artistic pursuits, but also in politics or the military forces. Whichever professional path they follow, however, it is important that these people be allowed to follow their natural urge to lead others and to act independently. They do not function well in subordinate roles, either in the professional or personal realm, and can be somewhat passive-aggressive toward anyone who tries to dominate them.
There is a distinct danger that such a high level of self-belief, particularly when it is apparently confirmed by others, can result in excessive egotism or compla- cency. These people furthermore crave the approval of their peers and may play to their audience, instinctively picking up on the prevailing mood and mirroring it. On such occasions they should step back and calm their propensity to respond impulsively and instead remain true to themselves and their own convictions. They may demand (and receive) the unquestioning support of their family and friends, but should remember that any dissension is not a personal betrayal, but rather a healthy manifestation of the rich benefits that are gained from diverse opinions and approaches.
