This is kind of a long story, abut there a question related at the end!

So, I'm a New Year's Baby.
Not just that I was born on New Years Day, but like, 15-SECONDS after Midnight kind of New Year's Baby...Got my name in the newspaper, mom got diaper service for a month and roses, kind of birthday.
See, on new year's eve 1969, my mom and dad were getting ready to go out as I wasn't DUE for 10 days. Mom's water broke @ 6pm, and that was it. When they got to the hospital, the Dr. (who knew my family and had delivered my sister) asked my DAD (because, you know, why ask the WOMAN?) "Do you want a New Year's Baby or a tax deduction?"
My Dad said of course whatever's best for the baby and mom, but a New Year's baby would be fun! Meanwhile mom's screaming on the gurney. ALL the hospitals in the Bay Area had a running bet between them too, so it became a bit of a frenzy! Dad said the nurses were all excited etc. Mom said they held her knees together till midnight...and then I was HERE! 😉 Through my ENTIRE life, my mom would call me NYE and remind me I "ruined her New Year" jokingly. (she passed 2022, I'm still not ok)
So I've played with my natal chart plenty over the years.
But I wanted to delve into more of WHY my soul decided to have such a "big deal" birthday? Like, it's fun to brag about and a great story, but is there significance to the time/date outside of astrology? Am I born on some kind of cosmic cusp? should I be doing something more in "life" because I have a special Bday? It's not necessarliy abt numerology either. just the significance of being "first" ...?
