January 12 Zodiac Birthday Signs – Your birthday shows you to be friendly and hardworking, a practical Capricorn with compelling personal charm. Although you are independent, your natural diplomatic skills suggest that you can work well in cooperative or teamwork situations. Down to earth in your approach, you can also be highly imaginative, with a strong sense of vision.
The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Virgo, indicates that you are responsible, with clear goals and keen perceptions. Being methodical, you take pride in your work; once decided on a course of action, you have the power to attain your objective, regardless of the time involved. This birthday suggests that your work has an especially strong emphasis for you. You may, however, have to avoid a tendency to become so absorbed in your interests that you neglect your immediate surroundings.
With both practical business sense and sensitive emotions, you will find that it is important to develop a sense of balance in your life. This helps you avoid unknown fears or hidden tensions that may lead you to escapism or instability. Although you possess a strong understanding of the material world, an inclination toward humanitarian or mystical subjects may draw you to spiritual or metaphysical studies. The combination of your sensitivity, inventive mind, and quick insight can also give you a shrewd understanding of human nature. Preferring to keep active, you may be of service to your community as an advisor or specialist.
From the age of nine to thirty-eight, when your progressed Sun moves through Aquarius, you become less influenced by traditional views and more independent. You learn to trust your own individual perspective. You may develop an interest in groups or humanitarian issues and have a strong need for friendship. Another turning point occurs at the age of thirty-nine, when your progressed Sun enters Pisces. From this time, there is more of an emphasis on your emotional inner life, reflected through your visions, dreams, and emotional ideals. This may encourage you to seek idealistic or spiritual goals. At the age of sixty-nine, there is another turning point as your progressed Sun enters Aries, accenting a desire for an active and direct approach to the people and situations in your life.
