The Birthday of Determination
“The darkness comes before the dawn; I will shine through”
The life lesson: is to avoid obsessiveness and narrow-mindedness.
The way forward: is to experiment with different approaches and understand that failure can sometimes teach you more than success.
Luck maker: The only person to compare yourself with is the person you were yesterday.
Failure is never an option for the appealing and extremely determined people born on January 3. They are at their most inventive when challenged and, even if it looks like they have failed, they will learn and grow from it and stage a comeback. Their admirable persistence means that they can overcome incredible odds. Sometimes, however, their stubbornness can make them appear intolerant. January 3 people can impose unbearable standards, not just on themselves but also on others, and when pushed into a corner they can resort to using their charm to help them get what they want in a manipulative way.
Born innovators, idealists and self-starters, they can achieve outstanding success in self-employment and business, but they can also excel in charity, the law, prison, the police, charity and humanitarian work, as well as politics, education, environmentalism, digital technology, and as creatives, authors, artists, filmmakers and social-media influencers. Prone to personal vanity, any concerns about appearance should ideally be managed not by cosmetic shortcuts but by a healthy diet and lifestyle, and a youthful and optimistic approach to life. They need to constantly remind themselves that appearance matters but inner beauty matters more. For self-care, close your eyes and tune into your intuition for a few minutes each day. Reflecting quietly on what your body, mind and, most importantly, your heart are trying to tell you can help you make better decisions.
In relationships January 3-born easily attract admirers and are loyal and trusted companions, but their tendency to constantly seek attention can become draining for the people in their life. However, when they let go of the need to control and allow others to breathe around them, their relationships can be deeply comforting and fulfilling. Around the age of 40 they typically discover that connecting with their intuition rather than seeking identity and attention from others, causes or projects is the path to true fulfillment, and their life transforms. Once they have mastered this “inside-out” approach to life, their destiny is to share their powerful creativity and make the impossible seem possible.
