Capricorn in every year from 1930 to 2029 — no ambiguity, no dependence on the hour. Here is what else this specific date produces.
Where in Capricorn this falls
Sun-ruled decan of Capricorn
Sun lends visibility and self-assertion, so this stretch reads more openly ambitious than the rest. The last ten degrees carry the sign already turning toward the next one, which is why this third often reads as the most complicated.

The Moon and nakshatra columns change every year because the Moon returns to the same calendar date in a different position — which is why a birth date alone cannot tell you those, and why this table exists.
A century of 12 January
Every figure here is specific to 12 January: the Moon returns to a given phase on the same calendar date only every 19 years or so, so the counts differ from one date to the next. Mercury’s retrograde periods drift by about 30° of the zodiac each year, which is why the share is near 20% but never identical. How that 20% is computed →
Year by year
The sign column never changes; only the number does.
Life path numbers this date produces
The most frequent is 8 with 12 years; the scarcest is 7 with just 11. And this date can carry a master number: 11 in 11 of those years. Master numbers are never reduced further, which is exactly why they are scarcer than single digits on any fixed day and month. Why 11, 22 and 33 are treated differently →
Why the answer holds
12 January sits 21 days past the start of Capricorn and reached 22.29° this year — far enough from either boundary that no birth year or hour changes it. The question worth asking on this date is where in the sign, not which sign.
