Being a Capricorn born on January 5th, your personality is characterized by adaptability, charm and determination. While there are many people that struggle with new situations and people, you thrive in environments that force you to adapt. Your warm, witty and charming personality shine in all your social interactions, which explains how you have managed to amass numerous close friends. Perhaps your most admirable quality is your determination. In the face of a challenge, you display the necessary mental fortitude and creativity to solve any problem.

Earth is your sign's paired element and in fact, of all the zodiac signs, you are the only one with a cardinal connection to the element. Your fundamental connection with Earth makes you a self-starter and initiator. Earth's influence over your personality becomes even more obvious, when your grounded nature is revealed. Instead of keeping your head in the clouds, you are well-rooted in realistic and practical pursuits. Your pragmatism will always contribute to future successes, but be careful to avoid earth's negative influences, which include an overly-cautious and conservative approach to life.

The Capricorn is under the planetary ruler of Saturn, but as you were born in the second Decan, or part, of the sign, you are also subject to the planetary influence of Venus. While the mysterious power of Saturn links to your discipline and order, it is Venus's special influence that can be seen in your social, cooperative and artistic qualities. More so than any of the other Capricorn Decans, you are social and creative. These qualities also apply to your close relationships, as you display devotion, affection and attention to all those you hold dearly. In love, you put great determination into cultivating a long-lasting union. You have a tendency to be pessimistic about your own abilities, but try to find positivity from your many loving friendships to counter any depressed moods.

Charming and hardworking, your natural abilities are well-suited for a variety of career paths. Your social skills could be used well in careers such as mediation, management or counseling. Similarly, you may find great comfort in education, writing or drama. You creativity may lead you into the world of entertainment, such was the case for Bradley Cooper, who was also born on January 5th. In whichever career you choose, try to display the warmth and longevity of Diane Keaton, another of your celebrity birthday twins.

The Sabian Symbol for your birthday is the children's ward of a hospital filled with toys. While it easy to be overwhelmed with your own affairs, you must not forget your responsibility to following generations. Find ways to have a positive impact on the future.
