January 7 people have little difficulty in attracting others to them: cheerful, affectionate, loyal and generous in their personal lives, these qualities, which are reinforced if they were born in the Chinese year of the dog, are cherished by friends, family members and coworkers alike. These people have the instinctive gift of being able to sense the moods of other people, a talent which, when combined with their genuine empathy and desire to smooth the way for their fellows, makes their company much sought after. Such qualities make them ideally suited to social work and medicine, or similar activities where their considerable interpersonal and communicative skills can best be employed. It would amaze many to realize, however, that despite their reputation as being pillars of strength, these sensitive people frequently harbor a deep lack of self-confidence and therefore seek to gain a sense of validation and worth from the affection and respect of others.
Personal connection is therefore of great impor- tance to people born on this day, but they also pos- sess a real sense of integration with the natural world, as well as a pronounced otherworldly, mystical side, which fuels an extraordinarily imaginative capacity. It is thus not hard for these people not only to accept, but also to manifest, a marked fascination with unex- plained phenomena. Although they would be well advised to pursue their instincts, many do not, appre- hensive of being branded cranks. When backed up with the methodical and disciplined approach char- acteristic of January 7 people, however, this tendency toward original thought can find satisfying fruition.
