The 4 Most Fearless Birth Months

All human beings experience fear—it’s a natural and healthy emotion that enables us to either stay away from danger or to face it head-on. So it’s not exactly accurate to say the following four birth months are “fearless,” but explaining this would be too complicated to fit into a headline.

What makes these four birth months stand out from the rest of the pack is their ability to assess their fears, confront them, and overcome them. They don’t use fear as an excuse for inaction—they use it as a warning sign of trouble ahead, and they plot out their battle plan accordingly.

You can describe these four birth months as bold, confident, courageous, daring, gutsy, intrepid, and even a little spunky. But it would be wrong to call them cocky or arrogant. They are all wise enough to know that too much ego can blind them to the dangers that are headed their way.

April

Those born in April are a fire sign ruled by Mars, the planet of war and bravery. It is also the first sign of the year, so it has natural-born leadership skills and an unstoppable will to take on all comers and vanquish any enemies with gleefulness and a lusty sense of gusto and bravado. They are the biggest risk-takers of all the birth months. To them, a life without risks and thrills and challenges is a fate worse than death. Of all the birth months, they are the only one who actually feels uncomfortable in the “comfort zone.”

August

A fire sign that is ruled by the sun—it’s almost too scary to ponder. August the Lionhearted wakes up every morning with a loud roar. Of all the star signs, those born in August are the ones that you don’t want to doubt or suggest they can’t do something, because they will use their iron will and rock-hard determination not only to prove you wrong, but to render you speechless with regret for ever thinking it was a good idea to question them. Although they might not be the most cunning of the signs (see February below), they are voted most likely to succeed based on the power of sheer guts alone.

February

Unlike the other three fire sign natives on this list, those born in February are air signs. But in this case, “air” doesn’t signify flakiness; it represents effortlessness. They are ruled by Uranus, the planet of innovation and individualism. So while the other three birth months may just plow straight through a problem with the sheer brawn of their personality, those born in February use their brain power to analyze every possible way to destroy any potential threats. Their keen, unmatched, and almost machine-like skills of analysis give them a sort of serene confidence that never comes off as arrogant. They view any potential dangers as merely another math problem to solve.

December

Talk about fearless! Those born in December are a fire sign ruled by Jupiter—the largest planet—so how could their personality be anything other than big and bold? They are blessed by the stars with an indomitable, unbreakable positivity that chases away fear just like sunlight dispels the darkness. The planets have aligned to give them an unerring confidence that views obstacles as opportunities. What others see as setbacks, those born in December view as yet another chance to prove their mettle. They are able to shrug off negative circumstances as effortlessly as a dog scratches away fleas. The word “no” is not in their vocabulary; neither is “defeat.”
