Born on January 10, 2002?

Mercury, Uranus and Neptune were all in Aquarius, so everyone born that day carries a strong Aquarius streak alongside their Capricorn Sun. The Sun and Venus sat less than a degree apart in Capricorn, a close conjunction shared by every chart from that day.

Planet signs are only part of the picture. Your rising sign changes about every two hours and the Moon moves half a degree an hour, so your exact birth time and place decide your houses, angles and Moon degree.
