22 FEBRUARY


The Birthday of the Investigator

“I solve problems”


The life lesson: is to be less self-critical.

The way forward: is to understand that failure is an essential stepping stone to success, and vulnerabilities bring others closer.

Luck maker: Recognize your own value and others will recognize it too.


People born on February 22 love a good mystery. Inspired problem-solvers with inquisitive minds, they have a real talent for unearthing the truth. They often try to do opposing things or express different viewpoints all at once; this can confuse but also fascinate others. They believe it’s not what you do but how you do something that matters. Their passion is investigation and the process of problem-solving. Because they tend to be self-reliant individuals, they often expect others to be the same and they can have perfectionist tendencies that make them highly self-critical and pessimistic when others disappoint them.

Born investigators, the chances are they won’t have a conventional career or, if they do, their interests reflect their eclectic tastes. They thrive in careers that require strong and steady leadership and problem-solving, making great detectives, scientists, medics, secret agents, consultants, researchers, recruiters, human resources managers, politicians and troubleshooters. Music, art, writing and journalism can also appeal, as can the caring professions, charity work, social reform, the military, health and fitness and alternative healing. Prone to erratic eating habits when passionately engaged in an investigation or case to solve, they need to ensure their diet doesn’t lack essential nutrients. For self-care, wearing, meditating on or surrounding themselves with the colors pink, orange and green encourages them to be more nurturing and less detached.

In their relationships these people can blow hot and cold and need to place a higher value on commitment and emotional honesty. They may be great at solving problems, but often neglect their own inner life. They benefit from opening up to others and being more understanding of mistakes—both their own and others’. Their tendency to experiment with differing goals, sometimes at the same time, is strong throughout much of their adult life. After the age of 57 they may focus their energies more. But whatever age they are and whatever path they choose, it will be a fascinating one that brings them closer to their ultimate goal of making their own life—and the lives of others—a little simpler. Their destiny is to show the world that diversity is a strength that can help and heal others.
