3. I'm a Rat (1972)

Rat people are born under the sign of charm and aggressiveness. They are expressive and can be talkative sometimes. They like to go to parties and spend quite sometimes chatting with their friends. Although the Rat can be quiet sometime, it is rare to catch a Rat sitting quietly.

Rat people usually have more acquaintances than real friends and they revere and cherish those close to them. Once you become their real friends, they will treat you as their family. Rats are self-contained and keep problems to themselves. And even though they can be talkative sometimes, they never confide in anyone.

Sometimes mean, narrow-minded and suburban in outlook, Rat people are nevertheless honest. They can always make a success of their lives as long as they manage to master their perpetual discontent and their insistence on living for the present moment.

The Rat is quick-witted. Most rats get more accomplished in 24 hours than the rest of us do in as many days. They are confident and usually have good instinct. Stubborn as they are, they prefer to live by their own rules rather others. In fact, it won't be an easy task to work with Rat people. Why? Simply because they are also 100% perfectionists.

11. S-S-S-SNAKE. That's me, to a "T".

In reality, Snake people 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.

12. The Productive Horse

They got me to a down to a "T"!

http://cat.nyu.edu/~liaos/noshock/zodiac/horse.html
Horse people are active and energetic. They got 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 in such occasions like 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 he is really more cunning than intelligent - and he knows that. That is probably why, most of the horse people lack confidence.
The Horse is hot-blooded, hot headed and impatient. He is a bit of an egoist, well, selfish sometimes, that it is rare for him to interest himself in any problems except his own. And though this egoist works only for himself and for his own success, his work nevertheless benefits everybody.

[Bertha Venation]

20. Rabbit, married to a -- oops.... Help!

well, I thought I was married to a Dragon, but this chart says "1952 1.27" Does this mean that since she was born before Jan. 27 '52, she is NOT a Dragon?

I'm so confused!

[Bertha Venation]

21. never mind, answered my own question

so I am a Rabbit, married to a Rabbit.

No wonder we have six cats.

[Bertha Venation]

22. Aha! Engrish Alert!

"Go check out your Rabbit friend's closet, I bet you will find many expensive and beautiful clothing there."

Heehee.... I love Engrish.

Farb now the glimrod.

[chemenger]

26. Correct.

The Chinese follow a lunar calendar.

I used to think I was born (01-18-1952) in the Year of the Dragon (a very auspicious sign to be born under). But since my life wasn't as fortunate as I felt it should have been, thinking as I did that I should have been blessed by being born in the Year of the Dragon I looked into it deeper and found out that I missed it by few days.

Real downer. I often wonder how my life you have turned out had I only been born a week later.

HA! HA!

[chemenger]

24. Wabbit Here!

EEEHHH ... What's up Doc.

After reading that I'd have to agree that I seem to fit that. I find it hard to believe that everyone born during that year is like that though...

[jogi1969]

44. earth rooster here

[Kathy in Cambridge]

31. Oh, yes, I'm a dragon, but a Pisces Dragon

Mr. RR would definitely agree with the Monarch part!

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.
