Capricorns like being at the top of their game. Being driven, they do their research well, looking for all details, and finish whatever they start.

As is self explanatory from the symbol of the sun sign, Aquarius is represented by the water bearer who blesses the land with its mystical powers. It is the most compassionate of all signs, striving to work for the benefit of all. Those natives born in the month of January under this Zodiac sign are givers who wish to make an impact on this planet. They focus much of their time and energy in making this world a better place. They are born with originality of thought and intellect that makes them brilliant thinkers and problem solvers. However, they could be quite fixated on what they want, making them quite rigid in having things done a certain way.
Consider having this astrological sun sign being flirty and naughty when they set their eyes on someone. As an air sign, the men and women of this Zodiac sign love to communicate their ideas and thoughts. Hence, an active social life with many friends defines them. With a fixed quality, this astrological sign could be quite adamant in what they believe but this does not mean that an Aquarius has no regards for an opposing viewpoint. It is difficult to influence an Aquarius unless logic substantiates the latter’s conviction.
