The Birthday of Assurance
“I do things my way”
The life lesson: is dealing with feeling lonely.
The way forward: is to accept people as they are and not as you expect them to be.
Luck maker: In conversations, ask questions and listen carefully to the answers.
People born on January 30 are confident in their convictions and put their personal mark on things. They live according to their own moral code and are always on the side of the underdog. Their strong social conscience, combined with their determination, charm and intelligence, means they are agents of positive change. Everybody will be in no doubt of where they stand on the important issues, but they are prone to worry and making impulsive decisions. They have a talent for bringing like-minded people together; living in a commune would not be unacceptable to them if it meant they could live according to their all-important ideals. Although they arrive at their position of certainty through reasoned judgment, they do also rely heavily on their instincts. This ability to combine intuition with logic marks them out as exceptionally gifted leaders.
Born campaigners, these people succeed in careers that require them to lead, inspire, educate, manage, negotiate and inform, such as politics, the law or police or even military work. They don’t suit routine unless the routine matches their ideals, and may be drawn to aviation, navigation, entertainment, the arts or consultancy work of any kind, be it as head of department, doctor, social worker, psychologist, producer or director. As they are energetic 24/7, it is important for them to schedule regular rest and relaxation. Surrounding themselves with shades of blue can induce feelings of inner calm. For self-care, write a short letter of forgiveness to someone who has upset you, but don’t post it. As you write, remind yourself that forgiving is not forgetting—it is letting go of negativity, which can drag you down.
A vain need to win the approval of others can lead those born on this day to fudge the truth. They can also find it hard to forgive those who upset them. It is important for them to speak truth to themselves and others, and to know when to let go. Around the age of 21 and then again at the age of 51 they experience significant turning points, which make them less anxious and more balanced. Once they have learned to value the viewpoints of others without seeing them as a threat to their convictions, their destiny is to transform their empathy into compassion and take action to make a positive difference.
