Re: Chinese Astrology

I knew I was a Tiger.

Like I said... I knew I was born in the year of the Tiger, but I didn't realize how much this type of astrology pegs me...
and I guess other's too!

TIGER

Tigers are sensitive, emotional and capable of great love. They are extremely competitive, especially when it boils down to honor or protecting the ones they love. They need independence but love to dominate. This strong sense of dignity, coupled with their eagerness to face challenges, make them natural (although difficult) leaders. Always restless and alert, they aren't afraid to go for what they want. Tigers make honest, generous friends and passionate lovers. In turn, they expect others to be honest with them, but criticism or disapproval gets them depressed. Still Tigers always bounce back to face new challenges and take bigger chances.

Characteristics:
Enthusiastic, Optimistic, Courageous, Bold, Sociable, Energetic, Volatile, Impulsive, Hot-Headed, Restless, Disobedient, Vain, and Stubborn

Wow, I truly couldn't have described myself any better.

What do you think about the description for you from your Chinese Astrological year of birth?

Woohoo Full Metal Pig!

Capricorn Pig
These pigs have a strong foundation of values and tradition. They are dependable and never back down on their responsibilities especially when they involve their family. They are hardworking individuals, but who also know when to take a break.

Re: Chinese Astrology

Thats not true, you friends on this board and friends IRL. They just dont want to be seen with your hair =p For real tho, I had blue or purple or green and once magenta hair well after my late late 20's and I'm pretty sure my straight-laced friends thought I was weird.

Re: Chinese Astrology

To be a Scorpio and a Ox.... two wide combination

OX
Born leaders, Ox people inspire confidence from all those around them. They are conservative, methodical, and good with their hands. However, they can be at times chauvinistic and demanding. In fact, the strength of an Ox person comes out in great shows of deter-mination, obstinance, and defense for what they believe in. Although they enjoy their private life and doing things on their own, Oxen are strong, dutiful and reliable. They construct firm bonds with their home and family, and while not the most romantic of the animals, Oxen make affectionate, faithful partners and lovers.


Honest, Loyal, Popular, Sincere, Steadfast, Reliable
-----------------
Stubborn, Impatient, Inflexible, Narrow-Minded, Sulking

The following occupations best suit the Ox personality.

PAINTER ¤ MECHANIC ¤ ARCHITECT ¤ FARMER ¤ ARMY OFFICER ¤ BANKER ¤ REAL ESTATE AGENT ¤ ARCHEOLOGIST ¤ MANAGER ¤ ENGINEER
No one with an Ox personality is afraid of hard work. Some notable Oxen include Napolean, Vincent Van Gogh, Walt Disney and Richard Nixon.

Re: Chinese Astrology

I was born in the year of the Rabbit.... I ended up raising rabbits when I was younger and I am timid.

Re: Chinese Astrology

So you don't have to shout out what year you were born...

However, I was born in the year of the Rooster!

"Roosters are hard workers; shrewd and definite in their decision making, often speaking their minds. Because of this, Roosters seem to boast. They like to put all their cards on the table and respect those who do the same,"

Think that states me pretty darn well considering I'm not Chinese!

What are you?
