January 16 Birthday Astrology

When January 16 individuals cultivate friendships, they want to be challenged emotionally and intellectually. They are equally idealistic in their romantic involvements. They seem drawn to individuals who can expand their life-view or teach them karmic lessons. Even sexual attraction is infused with a spiritual imperative.

January 16 natives are ambivalent regarding their upbringing. While they can appreciate tradition, they have a need to break from their background. They have a fondness for children but may not wish to have any. Playing aunt or uncle suits them.

January 16 natives do not see a division between mind, body, and spirit. So they put as much emphasis on meditation as on exercise and nutrition. They require at least eight hours of sleep. If sleep patterns are disturbed or changed, they can become irritable, even ill.

People born on this date need to use their imaginative power in their work. They can see the totality of a project at its conception. They enjoy spending money on beautiful things but are not good at managing their finances. Generosity is the problem; they loan money to friends and relatives.

Learning to use their psychic awareness in a positive way can be a challenge to January 16 people, who tend to be afraid of their abilities. Once they discover their prescience can help them and others, they are more confident about using their special talents. When they set their sights on achievement, they stick with it.
