Tiger Characteristics
"Born leader" is the key word for the Tigers. Noble
and fearless, Tigers are respected for their courage, even from
those working against them. Tiger people are daring fighters,
they are capable of standing up to the better end for what they
think is right. Although they could be selfish from time to
time in the little things, they are capable of great generosity.
Tigers are unpredictable, always tense and like to be in a hurry.
Tiger people are difficult to resist,
for they are magnetic characters and their natural air of authority
confers a certain prestige on them. They are tempestuous yet
calm, warm-hearted yet fearsome, courageous in the face of danger
yet yielding and soft in mysterious, unexpected places.
Tigers are very confident, perhaps
too confident sometimes. Although they love adventures, and
are addicted to excitement it is better not to challenge a Tiger's
confidence. They like being obeyed and not the other way around.
Because Tigers are urgent people
and always in a hurry to get things done right, they usually
choose to operate alone. Tigers like to work, they are hard-working
and dynamic. If you assign a task to a Tiger, the job will be
undertaken and accomplished with enthusiasm and efficiency.
Tigers make money, but they are not directly interested in money.
Still, the Tiger needs not worry about money: just when he fears
the money is gone, more seems to show up. Tigers are sensitive,
emotional. They are capable of great love, but they become too
intense about it. They are also territorial and possessive,
if you are a friend of a Tiger, he wants you to take his side
against the bad guys and because the Tiger is so adorable, you
often do. As lovers, Tigers are passionate and romantic, but
the real challenge for the Tiger is to grasp the true meaning
of moderation.

Rabbit Characteristics
The Rabbit is one of the most delicate
animals among all 12 animals. Rabbits are usually kind and sweet
and of course, popular people. Nobody ignores them, for they
are good company. A Rabbit's home is always a beautiful one
because Rabbits are famous for their artistic sense and good
taste. They are also usually well-dressed.
But even though they are popular
and loved by their friends and family, Rabbits are also pessimistic.
They are conservative and insecure, and that explains why most
of the them don't like changes.
Calm as they are, it is not easy
to provoke Rabbit people. They don't like to argue and enjoy
quiet, peaceful lives. They are also sentimental and compassionate.
Yes, and they cry easily too. They can be moved by personal
problems you share with them. Therefore, if you work as a salesman
for a living, you will have much better luck with Rabbits -
nine out of ten Rabbits will definitely buy your products!
Call them cautious or call them
timid, Rabbits will undertake nothing before they have weighed
the pros and cons from every angle. And that is probably why
rabbit people are doing well in their work. And yet, unless
they abandon their conservative nature, and become more aggressive,
they will probably live a very normal, and average life. They
can be great partners in relationships. Romantic and sweet,
faithful too, Rabbits never lack suitors.

Dragon Characteristics
As the noble animal symbol that represents the Chinese emperors,
Dragons are born leaders and masters of ceremonies. And because
of this, every Chinese parent is hoping to have a Dragon child.
Dragon people get things started and keep them moving. They
are feisty and gifted with power and luck. Most people look
up to the Dragon. Dragons are born monarchs. As far as they
can see, their power is indisputable. Dragons are idealists,
perfectionists, they are born thinking they are perfect and
they are inflexible. Dragons are also aggressive and determined,
going after what they want is second nature to them. And due
to their hunger for power, Dragons are not well suited to growing
old. The prospect of losing power, the helpless feeling of youthful
strength ebbing away is unbearable to them.
Irritable and stubborn, the Dragon
is a real big mouth and the words of Dragons often outrun their
thoughts. Nevertheless, their opinions are worth listening to
and their advice is always good. People do, in fact, listen
to them and their influence is considerable. Dragons are over-proud.
They are enthusiastic to the point of impetuosity, and they
lose their temper easily.
Dragons are dauntless, dynamic
and delightful. When a Dragon enters a gathering, the room starts
to simmer. The Dragon is very self assured and has an inflated
ego. Dragons are tyrannical. They hate orders except when they
are giving them. Unlike Tigers, who impose their will seriously
and firmly or Oxen, whose authority is implied in their very
stern demeanor, Dragons know innately how to exert authority
yet be gentle with their slaves. Dragons are terrible snobs.
Although money is not always the object, they are slavishly
impressed by wealth, prestige, rank and splendor.
The Dragon is gifted, intelligent,
tenacious, willing and generous. They can do anything. No matter
whether Dragons choose an artistic career, medical or political
one, they are going to shine in it. They will be a success wherever
they go. The Dragon is often loved and never disappointed in
love. The women of this sign are surrounded by admirers and
often demanded in marriage.

Snake Characteristics
Snakes have always been the seducers
of human beings. In reality, Snakes are born charming and popular.
Snakes are spotlight magnets, and they will not be ignored.
Peer group attention and public recognition are the least of
what he expects. Yet Snakes are never noisy or deliberately
outspoken, and they have have excellent manners. Unlike the
Snake who seduced Eve in to sin the Chinese astrological Snake
is not a devil, not even a little demon. The Snake is a nice
oversexed normal human being. Determined to follow through anything
they undertake to the bitter end, Snakes detest being left in
the air. They make their decisions quickly and firmly.
Most people are secretly or hopelessly
in love with Snakes. Gather those frustrated folk you know and
most likely, they are probably in love with a Snake. Irresistible
as they seem, the Snake never wastes time in idle gossip. They
are intellectuals, philosophers and cerebral person. Snakes
rely heavily on first impressions and on their own feelings
and sympathies, rather than on facts or on the advice and opinions
on others. They seem to have a kind of sixth sense in this way.
Snakes are a bit tight when it
comes to lending money, though their sympathy for others often
leads them to offer help. The fatal flaw in their character
is, in fact, a tendency to exaggerate - in helping friends as
with everything else. If they help somebody with a favor, they
can become possessive towards them in an odd way. Another big
flaw in a Snake's character is that, they are capable of bigger
lies. White lies, true lies, whatever they call them, though
they don't lie often, they do lie when they feel they can get
away with it.
In money matters, the Snake has
good luck: they don't have to worry - they will always be able
to lay their hand on money when they need it. Generally, Snakes
are careful but generous with friends and family. The Snake
should stick to careers that won't involve any risk - even the
risk of working too hard, for to tell the truth, the Snake is
a bit lazy. In love, the male Snake is romantic and charming.
He has a sense of humor and the female is usually beautiful
and successful. The male Snake is jealous and possessive - even
if he no longer loves his partner. Rejection is the worst blow
his delicate ego can suffer. Snake need a lot of security and
want to be accepted and approved by everyone.

Horse Characteristics
Horse people are active and energetic. They have plenty of sex
appeal and know how to dress. Horses love to be in the crowd,
maybe that is why they can usually be seen at concerts, theaters,
meetings, sporting occasions, and of course, parties. The horse
is very quick-witted and is right in there with you before you
have had the chance to finish what you are saying: he's on to
the thought in your mind even before you've expressed it. In
general, the Horse is gifted. But in truth they are really more
cunning than intelligent - and they knows that. That is probably
why, most Horse people lack confidence.
The Chinese believe that because
horses are born to race or travel, all Horse people invariably
leave home young. The Horse despises being pressured to act
for the good of the group or made to feel guilty. No matter
how integrated the Horse seems to be, a Horse's inner self remains
powerfully rebellious. Horses have boundless energy and ambition.
The Horse is hot-blooded, hot-headed
and impatient. Horses are a bit egotistical and it is rare for
them to interest themselves in any problems except their own.
Their work nevertheless benefits everybody.
The Horse is a worker, adept at
handling money and a good financier. The Horse is also famous
for suddenly losing interest in something. In their relationship
with the opposite sex, Horses are weak. They will give up everything
for love. There are also many contradictions in their characters.
Horses are proud yet sweet-natured, arrogant yet oddly modest
in their approach to love, envious but tolerant, conceited yet
humble. They want to belong, yet they are burdened by their
need for independence. They need love and crave intimacy yet
often feel cornered, pressured. But the truth is, Horses are
individuals, who depend only on their wits and their labor to
get what they want.

Sheep Characteristics
Sheep are elegant, charming, artistic,
gifted and fond of nature. People born under this sign are also
the most creative. They are also very delicate, their good manners
and charms always bring many admirers and friends. Sheep are
insecure. They need to feel loved and protected. They are easily
drawn into complex predicaments. This being, so, they usually
shy from confrontation, pull back when faced with heavy decision-making
and blatantly refuse to take an unpopular stand in a conflict.
Sheep are dreamers, sometimes they
are pessimistic, hesitant and over-anxious worriers! They can
be lazy sometimes. If sheep have any choices, they would definitely
choose to marry a wealthy person and sit back for the rest of
the lives. Also, they are obsessed with their appearance. This
plays an enormous part in their sense of personal stability.
If they don't look their best, they may be afraid to go out
the door to pick up the Sunday papers.
Disorganized as they are, business
is definitely not one of their strengths. Instead, the Sheep
will make a good artist or writer and can confidently take up
any career demanding artistic talents and creativities. Sheep
are very romantic, sensitive, and sweet. In relationships, they
could be a little bit bossy and lazy, but with their gentle
and caring nature, it will be hard to resist them.

Monkey Characteristics
Monkeys are fun and loving people
who are always cheerful and energetic. They are very clever.
Give a Monkey a boring book to read and he'll turn it into a
musical. Better yet, Monkeys will invite everyone to see it
free! That's how talented, creative and generous Monkeys usually
are.
At parties Monkeys will usually
be at the center of attention. Their charm and humor is the
key to their popularity. Sociable and diplomatic as they may
appear, they can be deceptive sometimes - they hide their opinions
of others beneath their friendliness. But they don't hide their
emotions. You can probably tell how a monkey is feeling from
miles away - they want everyone to know how happy or depressed
they are.
Monkeys are very good at problem-solving.
Wherever you are, whoever you may be, if you've got a problem
pick up the phone and dial-a-Monkey. Monkeys know how to listen
closely and work out solutions at the same time. And because
of their curiosity, they usually have a great thirst for knowledge.
Monkeys can be unreasonable sometimes,
and they have the ability to persuade themselves and everyone
around them to believe that they are doing the right thing.
Some say monkeys are self-centered and opportunistic, but monkeys
couldn't care less - because they are also indifferent.
The monkey has a good chance of
becoming famous or well known. Whatever they do, their charm
and luck will make them successful. As friends Monkeys are both
loyal and devoted, as lovers they can fall easily in love but
will get tired of the relationship and look for another. Most
Monkeys have one fetish - FOOD. They are not pigs, they don't
stuff themselves with food, instead, they just have this habit
of eating snacks whenever they like, and wherever they like.
And one last truth about Monkeys is that they adore bananas.
Go visit your monkey friend's kitchen, I bet you will find some
bananas there.

Rooster Characteristics
Roosters are very observant and
most of the time, they are very accurate and precise with their
observations. Perhaps, you can say that Roosters have a very
keen "sixth-sense". With Roosters, what you see is
exactly what you get. There are no hidden depths to the Rooster's
character: They are neither complicated nor profound, rather,
they are forthright and straightforward. The rooster likes to
be noticed and flattered. They might dress a little flashily
with this in mind, but in their hearts, they are completely
conservative. Roosters are sociable and love to receive attention.
Believe it or not, it is not an
easy task to fool the Rooster. Their minds are cautious and
skeptical, and with this perceptive gift, Roosters make excellent
trouble shooters, detectives, doctors, nurses and psychiatrists.
Roosters are always up and about doing things. You rarely see
a relaxed rooster that sits quietly in the living room, doing
nothing. They are also multitalented, and can become accomplished
in many different ways.
All Roosters are extremely conscious
about clothing and appearance. They may appear conservative
but they are obsessed with their looks and can spend hours standing
in front of the mirrors.
The main virtue in the Rooster
character is loyalty: they make devoted friends. They always
keep their promises and are always true to their word. When
Roosters love and admire someone, they will even catch the moon
just to keep them happy.

Dog Characteristics
Dog people are honest, faithful
and sincere. They respect tradition and value honor, and enjoy
helping people. The Dog is very righteous, and is always the
first to speak out against injustice. Dogs are not good at socializing
with friends, and rarely shines in company, but they are intelligent,
caring and good listeners.
Loyal, faithful and honest, Dogs
have the most profound sense of duty. You can count on them
and they will never let you down. And as a good listener, the
Dog is also very reliable in keeping secrets for others. They
simply don't like to gossip. Dogs are an agreeable companion
- when they are in a good mood. But when panic strikes, they
can turn nasty, and bark until they are tired. They can be judgmental,
defensive and picky if you rub them the wrong way, but as long
as you know how to pet and massage them, Dogs make absolutely
the best and most honorable companions on earth.
Dogs are born old and get younger
as they age. They take everything very serious. You may hear
the Dog complains a lot about street lamps, about traffic, or
about weather, but as he gets older, the less he takes his own
criticisms seriously.
The loyal Dog makes a splendid
captain of industry, a priest, an educator, a critic, or a doctor.
Dogs are usually the givers in relationships. They are usually
very generous and loyal, and in love, they are honest and straightforward.

Pig Characteristics
Pigs are models of sincerity, purity,
tolerance, and honor. When you first meet them, Pigs seem too
good to be true. They are careful and caring, obliging and chivalrous.
Put your trust in them, and they won't let you down. The Pigs
simply want to do everything right. Pigs are the people everyone
admires most. Make a list of the Pigs in your life: aren't they
the most loving and caring people around?
Pigs are born to give, to yield
and to serve. Frankly speaking, most people take advantage of
this Pig nature. Also, not only are Pigs easy to fool, they
like it that way too. No matter how old they get, Pig people
still only see and believe that all people are basically good.
Pig people constantly sacrifice their own happiness and comfort
for the sake of somebody else.
Pigs are loyal, faithful and giving
- only as long as they approve of you. In order to keep your
lifetime Piggy friend, remember, never try to force your opinions
on a Pig. Pigs don't say much - but when they decide to speak,
suddenly, nothing can stop them until they run out of subjects.
Like the Monkey, the Pig is intellectual - a character with
a great thirst for knowledge.
Some people claim that Pigs are
snobbish. Manners, breeding and good taste are of enormous importance
to them. In fact, pigs are aesthetic. Pigs are born with an
excellent nose for style in everything. Food is another of the
Pigs little sins. Pigs adore food, and after-dinner chocolates.
Pigs often over-eat, but they eat with good taste. In relationships,
Pigs are sensitive, sweet but naive, and caring. They are romantic
and are certainly the marriage-type. But on the other hand,
Pigs are also possessive, jealous and exclusive.
