January SEVENTEENTH The Day of the HEAVYWEIGHT: Those people born on January 17 are some of the most powerfully direct individuals of the year. This is in large part because they usually have a very clear goal, a firm idea of what it is that they wish to accomplish at any given time. They are also able to effectively assess their chances for success based on past experience and the difficulties that lie ahead.

  Ben's Twenty Schilling Note 1764; Benjamin Franklin, was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States and in many ways was "the First American". January 17, 1706, Boston, MA

Sally's Karmic Path: The Way of GROUNDING - Dancers and Dreamers to Literalist: The life purpose of those on this karmic path is to take the fertile imagination and visionary abilities symbolized by Pisces III energies and ground them in Virgo III pragmatism. Dreamers, the men and women on the Way of Grounding must develop the assurance and conviction to deal with the here and now. Because their minds are so highly philosophical, their struggle to ground their thoughts and make practical use of them is not an easy one. Many born to this path will be forced to become intensely pragmatic people, involving themselves in the financial and operating details of life, both at work and at home. Found in fields as diverse as accounting, the military, and the arts, the men and women on the Way of Grounding are called to develop a craftsman like and pragmatic mastery of their areas of expertise in order to provide something tangible to the world. 

 

GOAL: To literally manifest their visions and dreams in reality;

 

REWARD: The joy of giving birth to new ideas;

 

BALANCE POINT: Theory and Practice;
