The Birthday of the Philosopher
“I can see what truly matters”
The life lesson: is to avoid allowing preoccupation with work to take over your life.
The way forward: is to find a balance between work and your personal life, and focus on what really matters.
Luck maker: Attract new opportunities by doing things differently, talking to people you normally wouldn’t.
People born on January 6 always look beneath the surface for deeper meaning. They try to see goodness in others, but this can come across as child-like or gullible at times and their intelligence can be underestimated. Although they are typically mild-mannered, they can also be ambitious and hard-working, perfectionist at times, tending eventually to get what they want in life. There is a danger of them rejecting alternative viewpoints and being labeled as stubborn.
Work or study is often their savior because it channels their creative energies and helps them discover what their goals and values are. They are born visionaries and may be drawn to spirituality, therapy and personal development. They also make great programmers, gamers, engineers, architects, artists, designers, journalists, writers, investigators and filmmakers, or may decide to go it alone and set up their own business. They are prone to stress and shallow breathing because of their perfectionist tendencies, so deep-breathing techniques can help ease tension. Inhale deeply through the nose from the belly rather than the lungs and let the lungs fill completely with air. Then push all the air out of the lungs through the mouth. Inhaling and exhaling deeply five times every morning is recommended. For self-care, “unplug” from your phone for at least one hour a day, preferably first thing in the morning. Use that hour to focus on who you are rather than what you do.
There is a tender side to those born on this day that can get easily hurt and they may respond with rebellion when people don’t take them seriously. After the age of 45 they often learn that, although cathartic, rebellion can never be the whole answer. These people can sometimes be self-sacrificing in relationships and more in love with the idea of love than the person themselves. But once they learn the importance of give and take in their relationships and in life, stop spoiling themselves with choice, and make a decision about what they should devote their life to, their destiny is to help others deal with their own fears and prove that there can be light at the end of every tunnel.
