The Personality Trait You Didn't Realize You Had, Until You Checked Your Birth Month
When you were born plays a lot into how others see you.

While we like to think that our birth month does not significantly affect who we are as individuals, this could not be further from the truth. Your birth month determines the type of personality you have.
Some research suggests that the birth season or month may be correlated with certain personality traits or behaviors. However, it's important to remember that individual experiences and environmental factors play a significant role in shaping personality. Let's take a look at what words and characteristics perfectly describe you, as well as how others perceive you.
The personality trait you didn't realize you had, until you checked your birth month:
1. January: Talkative, independent
