December 24 Zodiac Birthday Signs – With your practical nature and strong emotional ideals, you are a refined and pragmatic individual with a sensitive intellect. Highly intuitive, yet rational, you can use your critical abilities professionally or for self-analysis. Just be careful that a tendency to be skeptical does not close your mind to the various possibilities and opportunities open to you.

With the subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Capricorn, you are ambitious and have a strong awareness of your responsibilities. Persevering, you have the power to slowly advance toward your goals and overcome difficulties. Preferring to work with a structured system, you can be reliable and take your tasks seriously. Be careful, however, that your self-restraint does not turn into melancholy or make you seem stubborn or cold.

Usually you have a realistic approach to life and can be charming and talented. A gift for creative thinking may manifest through writing, speaking, or other forms of communication. With your diplomacy, attractive voice, and amiable personality, you are able to win friends and sway others. When insecure, you may possess a fear of being alone or abandoned. You do need, however, regular periods of peace and privacy for introspection.

Up to the age of twenty-seven you have a desire for order and structure in your life, and practical considerations are important. At the age of twenty-eight, when your progressed Sun moves into Aquarius, there is a turning point that highlights a growing need for independence and autonomy. You become more sociable and group-conscious as well as desiring to express your own individuality. Another turning point occurs at the age of fifty-eight, when your progressed Sun moves into Pisces. This is likely to bring more emphasis to your emotional receptivity, imagination, or psychic and spiritual awareness.

Work & Vocation

Determined and self-reliant, you are often intuitive and intelligent, with ambition and drive. Your fine intellect suggests that you like to use your business acumen and be enterprising. You also have a talent for solving problems, as well as excellent organizational and managerial abilities. If inspired, you may choose to develop your natural writing skills. Alternatively, you can use your talents to administer art in national institutions. Attracted to public life, you can become involved in education, politics, acting, or the entertainment world. Despite being very practical, you may be attracted to philosophy, metaphysics, or mysticism. A love of variety and a need to be active and independent may inspire you to be self-employed.

Famous people who share your birthday include astronomer Tycho Brahe, blues singer Leadbelly, choreographer Robert Joffrey, billionaire Howard Hughes, seer Nostradamus, and actress Ava Gardner.

Although idealistic, faithful, and fair, you are inclined to be undemonstrative, believing that actions speak louder than words. The main challenge for a number 24 individual is to learn to associate with people from all walks of life, to overcome suspicious tendencies, and to build a secure home. The subinfluence of the number 12 month indicates that you are highly perceptive, with strong ambitions. You are friendly and sociable, but a tendency to be easily annoyed or hurt suggests that at times you take issues too much to heart. An inclination to alternate between being confident and independent and being vulnerable and self-doubting also implies that you need to seek balance and harmony in all your relationships. By staying open-minded and liberal, you are able to see the broader picture. Nevertheless, you are serious, efficient, hardworking, and trustworthy.
