December 20 Zodiac Birthday Signs – Receptive and charming, you are a gracious and enchanting Sagittarian with an engaging personality. Cooperative and helpful in group endeavors, you offer emotional support and encouragement to those you befriend. As an idealist with strong humanitarian inclinations, you may be drawn to devote yourself to a cause or a vocation. Although you are imaginative, with noble and lofty ideas, you can also be proud and inclined toward extravagance and overindulgence.
The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Leo, adds to your self-confidence; with a spirit of hope and optimism, you can extend your horizons. You are mentally astute and very determined, and when positive you develop patience and a philosophical view that strengthen your character mentally and spiritually.
As an impressionable romantic, you can have deep feelings that may be a source of inspiration. They can also unfortunately be a cause of frustration, especially if you are unable to fulfill your high expectations. An inclination to do what is nice and easy rather than what is part of your duty or responsibility implies that you need to develop self-discipline rather than indulge in instant gratification or impulsive behavior.
Compassionate and charitable, you enjoy mixing with different people, as you seek harmonious relationships. When you discover something inspiring that you can really enjoy, you are willing to dedicate yourself and work extremely hard.
Until you reach the age of thirty-one, your progressed Sun moves through Capricorn, emphasizing a need for a practical and realistic approach to achieving your goals in life.

You may become involved with issues of freedom, group awareness, or humanitarian ideals. Another turning point occurs at age sixty-two, when your progressed Sun moves into Pisces.

Your Secret Self
Highly sociable, you need people and can be generous, kind, and magnanimous. Seeking compatible and sympathetic relationships with others, you can be an excellent friend or companion. Being proud and dramatic, you do not always reveal your extreme sensitivity, as you like to be in control; if you become hurt, you may have to avoid playing the martyr or feeling sorry for yourself. This same sensitivity, however, can also make you highly intuitive, and if it is developed, it can give you access to higher or more profound levels of existence.
A permanent youthful quality combines well with your sense of loving to keep you in touch with your joyful inner child. This playful quality may be expressed through art, music, writing, and drama, or it may enable you to delight and entertain others. With your wonderful imagination, dynamic emotions, and natural compassion, you have the ability to lift people’s spirits and really enjoy life.
PRIMARY STAR’S INFLUENCE
Etamin bestows a keen mentality, enthusiasm, individuality, and a pioneering spirit. You are often self-assured but can at times be overconfident, which results in hasty actions that may lead to loss of position.
Linked to your Sun’s degree, this star encourages you to pursue a career in higher education, writing, publishing, or the legal profession. Usually Etamin imparts an assertive and determined nature with an interest in unusual subjects, ideas, and issues.
• Positive: willpower; fighting spirit, ambition, sincerity
• Negative: impulsive actions, quarrels, irritability, moodiness

Work & Vocation
Your warm personality and overriding charm guarantee you success in occupations that deal with people. You can be especially good at businesses that involve social interaction, such as public relations, promotion, sales, or being an agent for others. A natural empathy can also draw you to counseling, healing, or helping others. Your shrewd business sense helps you succeed in whatever career you may choose, but preferably you need the freedom to work in your own way. Alternatively, being creative, you may be attracted to writing, music, the arts, or the entertainment business. Your natural playfulness may also find expression in the sports world.

Numerology
With a number 20 birthday, you are intuitive, sensitive, adaptable, and understanding, and often see yourself as a part of a larger group. Usually you enjoy cooperative activities where you can interact, share experiences, or learn from others. Charming and gracious, you develop good diplomatic and social skills and can move in different social circles with ease. You may, however, need to develop your confidence or overcome a tendency to be easily hurt by the actions and criticism of others or be overly dependent. You are a master at creating a congenial and harmonious atmosphere. The subinfluence of the number 12 month indicates that you are astute and receptive, with a restless nature. You benefit from trusting your strong instincts, since you are often very perceptive in your assessment of people and their motives. Although you are ambitious and determined, your idealistic vision may cause you to vacillate between wanting personal advancement and sacrificing your personal wishes for the sake of the common good.

Love & Relationships
Your need for emotional stimulation shows your powerful feelings. Restless and highly sensitive, you have idealistic inclinations that are probably going to entice you to try many different relationships. Since you are willing to make sacrifices for those you love and cherish, you need to take your time to find a suitable partner. Youthful and enthusiastic, you like to be spontaneous, but by becoming strongly attached to partners you run the risk of getting overly serious. This may sometimes prove to be a costly and unnecessary heartache.
