СКАЧАТЬ impossible for them to change course and they may go to extreme lengths to see things through to the bitter end. Ironically for people who are so uncompromising and committed in their work life, they aren’t always able to make that same level of commitment to their personal life. In fact their personal life definitely takes second place. This may be because they believe that emotions and connections with other people are a distraction from their primary purpose in life, but it may also be the result of a fear of being disappointed. The way forward for them is to apply the same level of commitment to potential friends and partners, and to learn to respect and appreciate the emotional support of others.

      Although they appear to be extremely confident and have the ability to implement radical change, they are inwardly far more complex than they appear. Behind the solid, strong image and the apparent love of risk-taking and innovation lies a person who often feels misunderstood; these feelings are heightened if they haven’t found a direction in life to which to devote their considerable energies. Once they understand that it is not leadership, material wealth or high rank that they crave but personal freedom and the ability to bring about positive change in the world, they can leave their insecurities behind and achieve miracles.

       On the dark side

      Stubborn, obsessed, insecure

       At your best

      Peacemaker, inquisitive, risk-taker

      Love Passions run deep

      The passions of those born on January 14 run deep and they are typically uncomplicated by jealousy. Family, friends and loved ones need to be extremely faithful, patient and understanding but it is well worth the effort as they make adventurous and exciting lovers. Their ideal partner is somebody with a like mind who does not get jealous or possessive and supports them in their convictions.

      Health Accident prone

      Fortunately, people born on this day are unlikely to be tempted by drugs, drink or smoking and this has a protective effect on their health, both physical and emotional. Unfortunately, despite their common-sense approach to health, they are often guilty of driving themselves too hard or living on the edge. Their body inevitably pays the price with accidents and stress-related headaches and insomnia. They are attracted to extreme sports but their health would be better served by gentle to moderate exercise, such as cycling or swimming. A cup of lemon balm or passion-flower herbal tea before bed time will help them sleep well and relieve any aches and pains.

      Career Born people watchers

      It is important for these people to find an outlet for their powers of observation, their ability to see the whole picture and their untapped well of creativity. Writing and photography may be of particular interest, as might property development and design, but because of their unusual ambition and determination they can master almost any skill or career. The media, public relations and advertising may appeal, and as might careers in business, banking and the stock exchange.

      Destiny To introduce positive reforms

      The life path of people born on this day is to find a cause to which they can devote their considerable energy. Once they have learned the importance of connections with others they will discover their destiny, which is to introduce reforms or groundbreaking ways of doing or looking at things.

       15 January the birthday of the protagonist

       Your greatest challenge is…

      coping with lack of recognition for your efforts

       The way forward is…

      to learn patience. If you keep working for the best possible outcome for yourself and for others, your time will come.

       You’re drawn to people born on…

       April 21 to May 21

      You share a delight in worldly and sensual pleasures and, if attention is also paid to the spiritual, this can create a faithful and adoring union.

       Luck maker

       Share the spotlight

      This won’t come easily for you, but denying others recognition is foolish. Lucky people give credit, share their success and by so doing attract opportunities their way.

      Idealistic, ambitious and determined, those born on January 15 have a strong desire to lead and inspire. For them, nothing occurs which does not have some deep ethical significance, and this, coupled with their uncanny sense of the motivations of others, gives them a talent for seeing life as an exciting drama, pregnant with possibilities for both good and evil.

      Motivated perhaps by inspirational role models in their childhood or student years, those born on this day are full of innovative ideas and dynamic energy, combined with a passionate desire to make the world a better place. They are especially sensitive to the feelings of others, giving them great interpersonal skills. They have the ability to win others over to their position, and although others may find them uncompromising at times, they will also admire their seductive and fascinating power and are more than happy to follow their lead.

      The Achilles heel for people born on this day is their desire for recognition or credit. They are unlikely to feel fulfilled toiling anonymously for their cause as they feel it is their purpose to lead and raise awareness. Since they are most likely to devote themselves to idealistic and ethical concerns, this is not generally a problem; but if they are drawn toward matters less worthy of them, there is a danger that this need for praise and recognition can become obsessive and ego-driven.

      People born on this day do like the world to see them as the invincible conqueror and, with their dramatic flair, people tend to see them in exactly that way. This can create problems for them, however, because they possess a sensitive, generous and vulnerable side that needs to be allowed СКАЧАТЬ
