The Birthday of the Charmer
“I am in love with my life”
The life lesson: is dealing with a need to be praised.
The way forward: is to understand that people need to like you for who you are and not for being accommodating.
Luck maker: Be loyal and true to who you are.
February 6-born are charmers. Well liked by just about everyone, they have a winning way about them. They are also never wrong-footed by the unexpected, always willing to courageously explore new territory, and this boldness generally earns them universal praise. Approval really matters to them, but this need for affection isn’t a one-way street; in many ways, life is one big love affair for them. The only downside to their perpetually love-struck approach is that when people don’t warm to them or things don’t go their own way, they can get easily hurt. Sometimes disillusionment can make them behave in overly dramatic ways, which can irritate rather than endear.
Born captivators, they can use their people skills to bring them success in public relations, politics, the media, public speaking, sales, marketing, promotion, vlogging and teaching, and may also be drawn to research, humanitarian causes, social reform, the arts and science and, in some instances, the world of sport. They tend to be obsessed with their physical appearance and need reminding that true beauty comes from within. For self-care, every time you are tempted to compromise yourself to win approval from others, gently tap your forehead with your fingers as a physical reminder to turn the focus on being true to yourself.
These people make passionate lovers, but they tend to be in love with the idea of love, forever seeking that endorphin high. They need to be careful not to go from lover to lover or to sacrifice who they are to accommodate others, and to understand that companionship is not just about pleasing others but also about trust, respect and having boundaries. There is a turning point in their mid-forties onward when they finally and fully understand that their self-worth needs to be based on more than popularity. Once they make sure their emotional needs are not sacrificed to the altar of people-pleasing, their destiny is to inspire others to follow their example and believe life can be really good, and with that kind of positive expectation, more often than not it is.
