It is the Earth Horses of 1978 that are endowed with these characteristics; other representatives of the sign do not have such qualities. Practicality and logic in all actions are not considered to be the natural qualities of the Horse. The personality of the Yellow Horse differs from others in its logic and ability to cope with its passions.

But the Yellow Earth Horse is not an avid debater, unlike other representatives of this sign. They are respected and appreciated by their work colleagues, they are kind and always ready to help.

Often the Horse does not believe in its own strengths when making decisions, but hides it well from others, but she herself knows how scary and hard it is for her. But this kind of indecision often helps and protects against making the wrong quick decision. From the outside, the Yellow Horse is considered restrained and prudent, others trust her more.

Animal Horoscope - Animal Years Calendar

RAT- for those born in the years - 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008.

Being the first sign of the Chinese Zodiac, the Rat signifies the beginning. In the Chinese calendar, the Rat month has the shortest daylight hours. On old Chinese clocks, midnight was indicated by the image of a Rat, which meant the beginning of a new day. The hour of the "Rat", or, in fact, a double hour, lasts from 23.00 to 1 in the morning.

Long before animal names were used, in China, the image of a baby was used to designate the first sign, which represented creation, inspiration and the generation of ideas or actions.

Given that the hour of the rat falls at midnight, those born under this sign can be a scientist who sits up at night over books for a long time. This person is ready to sit at night over solving complex problems or riddles until he gets the right answer. But if the rat is able to carry out complex projects on paper, then it tries to evade practical side affairs, often leaving others to bring the work begun to completion. Such, although very useful, people are unlikely to be able to change their nature.

All representatives of this sign prefer to be at the very beginning of a business, and not at its completion. They are sociable and supportive of each other, are able to lead others in an amazing way and have good connections that allow them to realize their plans.

Due to the Rat's bad sense of humor, they are often taken too literally and incorrectly, as a result, so many valuable arguments do not work, because the Rats are not able to state their point of view in a concise and understandable form. Surprisingly, they have to be blamed for not being able to catch the irony that others sometimes resort to.

As for the ability to manage the family budget, such people sometimes make spontaneous decisions. Of course, they know how to spend money wisely, but with their creative nature, sometimes the emotional beginning takes precedence over the rational. From time to time, these people are able to lead the family ship to a safe haven. It takes too long for the Rats to finally understand that after full times, hungry years can come, and therefore it is advisable to always have a supply of resources just in case.

Although family ties are important for such people, nevertheless they are not paramount. Having an independent character, they are among those family members who can create their own home away from the place where they previously took root. In the event of a domestic conflict, the opinion of the Rats will be the most significant.

Rats are able to choose any career or profession that allows them to use their creativity. They easily establish contacts, have the gift of persuasion and, perhaps, the gift of manipulating other people. They are also adapted to work as teachers or lawyers. Since they prefer freedom of movement and flexible working hours, they work with special diligence and are more productive under such conditions than if they were forced to work under strict time limits.

Although these people are not too concerned about their own appearance (they believe that others should see their true nature without it), Rats, if necessary, can make a good impression with their appearance.

Ideal Partner: The Rat's ideal partner would be either the Dragon or the Monkey: both share the Rat's understanding of the importance of novelty and exoticism. Some Rats may be useful at home, at work or in social life, but since the interests of the Monkey and the Dragon are very similar, they are not able to add anything new to the experience of the Rat. If the Rats wish to play a secondary role in this relationship (although this is unlikely), then either the Dog or the Tiger may be a suitable and stimulating partner.

BULL- for those born in the years: 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009.

IN ANCIENT CHINA ON A DAY approved by astrologers, the emperor himself personally laid the first furrow of the year on arable land with the help of a bull. The annual Chinese almanac always began with a picture of a boy or a man standing next to a spring bull, and the choice of this animal may be associated with the end of winter. But since the Ox is the only sign that corresponds to the Ox sign of the Western Zodiac, it is quite possible that Chinese astrologers borrowed this symbol from the West.

People born in the years of the Ox are those who build and develop, bringing everything to perfection. These include such individuals who have the gift of foresight and the patience necessary to plant an acorn and nurse it until it turns into an oak tree. They do not shy away from routine work and prefer the proven and long-established, rather than the new and uncertain.

Their qualities, such as reliability and responsibility, have won them many admirers in this restless and constantly changing world. This allows them to occupy high positions both in the administrative apparatus and in the political sphere. Thanks to their determination in difficult situations and the unlikely opportunity for the Bulls to turn off the already chosen path, they are able to easily withstand the most serious opponents and opponents. Of course, such inflexibility will certainly also cause them to make enemies, but the latter are unlikely to be able to win and achieve significant success in any rivalry with the Bull for power. No wonder there is a Chinese proverb that says that "one bull can fight two tigers." It is likely that the danger for the Bull may appear quite unexpectedly from the side where he does not expect it. A friend who has been neglected by mistake may become offended and even offended and thus become unreliable.

The Ox belongs to the trinity - along with the Rooster and the Snake, which in this combination represents shrewd financiers and investors. But without these two, the Ox prefers to save funds rather than invest them. The Ox naturally gravitates to any professional work related to the earth. It will be a valuable acquisition for any organization, because thanks to its careful and systematic management, the financial position of the company will gradually improve.

Although the Ox may give the impression of a sedate and formally official person, a traditionally romantic streak lives in the depths of his heart, which can manifest itself only in an intimate circle of friends and relatives. The Ox carefully hides his love for beautiful things in literature and art, and individual manifestations, bursts of internal culture often surprise people who believed that they knew all sides of the character of the Ox well.

The bull tries to show that he is not particularly interested in fashion issues, but at the same time he is always dressed according to the moment, preferring a classic style that is unlikely to be out of place.

Ideal partner:

Most likely, Bull will choose a partner that is close to his production environment, but only in another neighboring department. It may turn out to be a Rooster from the world of trade or a Snake from among lawyers. Despite their opposing views, the Bull and the Rooster are attracted to each other like a magnet, and a strong bond is established between them; The Bull is attracted by the appearance of the Rooster and his manner of holding himself, as for the Rooster, he likes the honesty and unpretentiousness of the Bull. Similarly, the similarity of intellectual and physical qualities Ox and Snake also makes them an ideal couple.

TIGER- for those born in the years: 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010.

ON THE FOREHEAD OF THE TIGER there is a Chinese character "wang" meaning "king" and proving beyond any doubt that the Tiger (in China) is the king of all wild animals. That's why, when ancient Chinese astrologers were looking for the right animal to signify the important first month Chinese year, then their choice fell on the royal Tiger.

Kingship symbolizes luxury and dominance, so confidence comes from people born under the sign of the Tiger. They resolutely refuse to accept the possibility of being worse than others. Of course, they understand that, whatever their fears or misgivings, as well as their reluctance, their duty is to take responsibility, become leaders and in this role fulfill their duties, whatever it takes for them - persevering whether labor, money or influence. The Tiger will always strive to take a leadership position. Even calm and modest Tigers will still strive to achieve a privileged position that will allow them to quietly participate in any decisions - no matter how significant they are. Most Tigers are destined to achieve top posts. Of course, they will have opponents along the way, and they should remember that success always causes envy and anger in others. In an effort to break into the upper echelons of power, the Tiger must be careful, in otherwise he can be knocked out.

The tiger always expects retribution, which is next to him. In the Chinese calendar, the Ox means the end of the old year, the Tiger - the beginning of a new one. The obstacles facing the Tiger arise not as a result of new requirements, but from the inability to change the old order of things. The tiger should not be afraid of the appearance of new people, no matter how important and impressive they look. The danger for him arises when trying to ignore the traditional values ​​\u200b\u200band established order, which symbolize the Ox with a strong position. In such a situation, the Tiger will not be able to achieve its goals.

The tiger is a great partner. Those Tigers who are not involved in the occupation physical education, compensate for this by participating in mental games, including discussions or contests, enjoying subtle humor and good-natured banter.

For less affluent people, the Tiger is kind and gracious, inspiring new things without being condescending, able to listen with interest and offer constructive advice. Tigers strive to keep abreast of the latest news, ranging from international conflicts to social gossip.

In financial matters, the Tiger does best if he sees a goal: to lead people on the path to prosperity. Cleverly helping others, the Tiger can achieve amazing results.

Family life he will be stable and disciplined if he does not allow the manifestation of rudeness and oppression. His family will be friendly, all its members are connected by close ties, especially brothers and sisters. But if the Tiger turns out to be the youngest in the family, then the child may have a desire for disobedience, which, of course, will upset the parents.

Many Tigers prefer public service as they love to wear uniforms and be subject to discipline. That is why Tigers are often found among nurses, police officers, firefighters and, of course, military personnel. In other words, they are attracted to professions where career growth is possible.

As for clothes, the Tigers have a delicate taste and are quite picky. Most often, they prefer clothes in the latest fashion, expensive and sophisticated.

Ideal Partner: Since the Tiger is a strong masculine symbol, in the past, Chinese parents were reluctant to allow their sons to marry girls born in the year of the Tiger. “Never bring a Tigress into the house,” exhorted the parents of their sons, fearing that a woman with strong character will goad her future husband. But if both parents are Tigers, then this problem does not arise. The Tiger has a lot in common with the Dog and the Horse, and therefore mutual respect will become a solid foundation in partnership with one of these signs.

RABBIT- for those born in the years: 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011.

A SOFT CHARACTER RABBIT goes well with a cruel Tiger. These signs look contrasting and in fact are opposite sides of the same coin: the Tiger conquers space for itself with the help of open aggression and its vitality. And the Rabbit achieves this goal with tact and diplomacy. An important lesson should be drawn from this: what cannot be obtained by force can be won by subtlety, intelligence and cunning.

It was easy for astrologers of the past to decide on the Rabbit as the fourth sign of the Chinese Zodiac. It symbolizes the sunrise, that is, the time when rabbits crawl out of their holes. The month of the Rabbit always includes the period of the spring equinox. Thus, the sign of the Rabbit is directly associated with spring and all its joys, with the dawn and new promises, freshness, restoration of strength and the revival of hopes for a better future.

Rabbits have the whole set of qualities of people who love children and animals: this is, first of all, tenderness and the ability to care for others. They also adore flowers and plants and enjoy gardening. But they rarely take on the management of large agricultural farms, since this type of activity does not bring them aesthetic pleasure. Other associations between the sign of the Rabbit and caring for plants can be seen in a famous Chinese tale. It tells of the Rabbit, who came from the moon, where he is believed to live to this day and stirs the cauldron of magical concoctions, preparing the elixir of immortality. When Chinese children look at the full moon, instead of a man in the moon, they see a Rabbit busy with his work. Thus, the Rabbit is also associated with the art of healing ailments and the preparation of medicines. People born under this sign are attracted to any profession related to caring for the sick and poor people. Money is less important to them than public duties.

The Rabbit needs to communicate with people, and he is able to make strong friendships. In all likelihood, of all, only the Rabbit is the least interested in his personal well-being: he prefers to avoid conflict situations, but shows legitimate anger when a defenseless person is hurt.

The rabbit is usually loved in the family: it has a natural desire to help parents and younger family members. He rarely annoys others with his problems.

The sharp vision inherited from nature turns into the ability to distinguish the false from the true in this zodiac sign.

The typical Rabbit prefers to get up early in the morning, but the passion for an active social life most likely causes him physical overload. If it is necessary to work after hours, it will be difficult for the Rabbit to successfully cope with his professional duties.

In clothes, the Rabbit prefers natural colors and national colors, preferring to fit into the environment.

Ideal Partner: The Rabbit can make a perfect match for almost all signs of the Chinese Zodiac. But who then can be the ideal partner for the Rabbit?

Of course, strong bonds are possible with other Rabbits, with whom he is united by common interests. But in terms of love for children and attitude to family life, the Rabbits are close to the comfort-loving Pig and the unshakably faithful Sheep. Since the strong Tiger - Yang, is the partner of the Rabbit - Yin, they can make a wonderful, perfectly compatible pair. However, the Rabbit should at all costs reject the claims of the charming Dragon, whose charm is quickly fading.

THE DRAGON- for those born in the years: 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012.

The DRAGON is the ONLY ASTROLOGICAL SIGN that represents a non-existent animal. As ancient Chinese astrologers believed, the eastern part of the firmament was known as the Dragon. This constellation was clearly visible in the sky in late spring in the month of the Dragon. Its mystical origin means that the Dragon and its zodiac partner, the Serpent, are associated with supernatural powers.

Unlike Western dragons, Chinese dragons do not have wings, although they are often depicted flying in the sky. The preferred habitat of the Chinese dragon is the aquatic environment, and its presence can be recognized by turbulent streams and whirlpools.

In China, for thousands of years, the dragon has been a symbol of imperial power and power, good fortune. In his images, the dragon held a necklace of pearls in his mouth, and gold coins fell to the ground from the lower part of his stomach.

A person born under the sign of the Dragon reveals a truly fantastic character, prone to the exotic. This is an extraordinary, highly extroverted personality, bizarre, eccentric and often violent. The character of the Dragon is such that the heads of those around him turn to him in surprise even before he opens his mouth. When he speaks, he does not allow even a moment of doubt - always only significant pauses. If the Dragon gives orders and instructions, then everyone should obey him not out of fear or servility, but out of confusion in front of the obvious arrogance on the part of the Dragon.

The dragon always manages to demonstrate his wealth. He never lacks money, although he does not always have it in his pockets. In fact, the biggest danger for the Dragon is the need to make extravagant gestures, and it is amazing that these incredible risks usually bring decent profits.

People born under the sign of the Dragon have a lively mind, and in their conversations fast reaction not only hypnotizes, but also confuses. They attract many friends and admirers, but even the most loyal of them often despair due to the apparent lack of stability and consistency in the actions of the Dragon. It seems to outsiders that the decisions of the Dragon last exactly as long as it takes time for them to be pronounced. It also gives the impression that he can change his mind due to a whim, although this usually happens because it is difficult for the Dragon to make the slightest changes to already existing plans. In this case, he prefers to abandon them altogether, rather than subject them to adjustment, regardless of the possible serious consequences.

In the family, the Dragon can express conflicting views on certain current issues. It doesn't really matter to him whether they are accepted or rejected, because he has already done his job.

Given that the Dragon loves flattery and strives for recognition of his professionalism and the plans he proposes, he is ideal for any career that is public in nature. The ideal place for Dragons is the theater, although they will come into view everywhere as soon as they begin to radiate their charm. They will also be attracted to work in financial institutions, as the brilliance of gold and jewelry is the spiritual food of the Dragons.

Always defying convention, the Dragon is not shy about wearing what suits him best, no matter how shocking the people around him may be.

Ideal partner: The special qualities of the Dragon are best appreciated by the diligent and stubborn rat or the dexterous and cunning Monkey. But under no circumstances will the Dragon want to be next to a quiet rabbit. “When the Rabbit appears, all the wealth of the Dragon is gone,” says a Chinese proverb. Other suitable life companions for the Dragon would be the Tiger and the Horse. At the same time, his companion sign - the Snake - will also be an understanding and always supportive partner for him.

SNAKE- for those born in the years: 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013.

PARTNER OF THE DRAGON SNAKE - also a sign of mystical prowess, prowess and courage, but in a more modest expression. Where the Dragon is a sorcerer who summons evil spirits, the Serpent seeks more to establish spiritual contact through meditation. According to the Chinese calendar, the month of the Snake is the first month of summer.

It was then that snakes crawled out of their holes for the first time to bask in the warm rays of the sun. If snakes appear on the surface earlier than usual, this may serve as a warning of an upcoming earthquake. The fact is that, being in holes, snakes instantly feel the most insignificant tremors. During the years of the Serpent, earthquakes often occurred, some of them were destructive.

Just as the Dragon is associated with gold and the mineral jadeite, the Serpent is said to be the guardian of treasures hidden in the earth. Perhaps this is due to the fact that thieves hide stolen goods in the ground, and this place involuntarily becomes a nest where a tired snake finds refuge. Although many feel fear at the sight of a snake due to a possible fatal bite, its association with buried treasures means that many Chinese tend to view the snake as a harbinger of good fortune.

For the Chinese, the Snake represents mystery and intrigue. Eavesdropping, eavesdropping and espionage are associated with the Snake, and those born in the year of the Snake are capable gatherers of information. Intrigues, tricks, tricks and scandals rarely go unnoticed by the Snake, watching this for future gain. Unlike their talkative and chatty neighbors, those born under the sign of the Snake tend to keep tidbits of secrets and gossip to themselves, postponing scraps of information until a more favorable moment when they can show themselves in best light.

Carefully manipulating circumstances, these people can take a high position in the corridors of power, but not due to the open display of ambitions and self-promotion, but due to the ability to find themselves in right place at a time when their best qualities are most in demand. Snakes are able to compare facts and figures and become brilliant researchers and analysts.

Those born under the sign of the Snake are guided in life by strict moral principles and ethical standards. They are generally truthful, but if they are forced to reveal a secret, they will use their verbal dexterity and skill to present the facts in the best possible light, resorting to cosmetic adjustment. They can also give the impression that they know more than they really do - a valuable asset, especially during difficult trade negotiations.

The snake is the ideal type of scrupulous and astute financier who will always report to the last cent.

The snake prefers solitude, and her house is unlikely to be open to everyone. There may be valuables in the house, such as expensive paintings that are not intended for prying eyes. The snake is extremely sensitive and often surrounds itself with luxury, which, in its opinion, should not concern anyone.

Snakes love expensive clothes, but not flashy, as they do not dress to impress others, but to remain as modest and unobtrusive as possible.

Ideal Partner: The Snake carefully chooses a partner who should offer what she herself lacks in life: earthly strength, strength or exotic beauty, it does not matter which. The Ox will give the first quality, and the Rooster or even the Dragon will hit the Snake with an illegal but beautiful intrigue. A Chinese proverb adds another promising partner: "When the Snake and the Rabbit meet, this is real happiness."

HORSE- for those born in the years: 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014.

In the CHINESE CALENDAR, the month of the Horse means the middle of the year. It includes the longest daylight hours, when the sun - Great Yang - shines the most in the year. Accordingly, the hour of the Horse falls in the middle of the day (regardless of the season), when the sun is at its zenith. Astrologers of the past chose the sign of the Horse to represent Great Yang, associated with men and their pursuits outside the home.

Thus, the Horse is associated with the male sex, both in behavioral terms and in terms of characteristics. Typical signs of the influence of the sign of the Horse on those born under it are a passion for social events, sports and rude jokes. For this reason, Chinese parents, in search of a bride for their son, sought to avoid the applicant who was born under the sign of the Horse, as they feared her superiority in such a marriage.

A man born under the sign of the Horse prefers to believe that both sexes should lead a purely separate life in accordance with traditional functions: a man works in the field and brings home the harvest; the woman is busy in the household and raises children. On the other hand, a woman born under the sign of the Horse is a leader in her environment. She holds a different view: both partners in marriage should share the responsibility and responsibilities for maintaining the household and for this receive the same reward and recognition depending on their contribution.

The character of a person born under the sign of the Horse is exceptionally sociable and competitive. The horse prefers to act as a team rather than alone. She can be a fanatic or a bearer of revolutionary ideas, but only on the condition that others in the environment will be like that. At the same time, her leadership qualities and ability to speak directly and frankly, regardless of faces, will not cause difficulties in acquiring supporters and followers of her cause. It is hardly possible to easily change the opinion of the Horse on various issues, given the adherence to principles and the presence of firm and well-established views. Negative side character of a typical Horse - it can be biased and prejudiced.

Horses and credit cards don't go well together. Considering that the main thing is to make a favorable impression, the Horse often makes hasty decisions in financial matters. She manages to stay within budget, although she can cut costs on items that others deem essential.

Women born under the sign of the Horse are ready to work for the good of society in various committees and are trustworthy organizers. Whether it's a temporary job assignment from town to country, a trade conference, or a family event, the Horse woman is right choice to satisfy all those employed in this kind of activity.

Although at first glance these people prefer sports and other activities related to other work, nevertheless, an analysis of their hidden qualities shows that they are quite smart and intellectually developed. They also derive satisfaction from being in the company of crossword solvers and quite often take the lead in games such as bridge, quizzes, etc.

Although Horses do not tend to blindly follow the fashion in clothes, they do not want to look old-fashioned, therefore they prefer the style that is in line with the latest fashion, but discreet.

Ideal Partner: The Sheep is best suited as a partner for life, as the Horse and Sheep combine opposite qualities and two sides of the same partnership. Other preferred partners, provided that they do not get in the way, would be the Tiger, especially if it is a woman, and also the Dog, who shares the affection for outdoor activities and sports. Partners to be avoided include the Rat or Rabbit, while the Rooster will distract the attention of the Horse, much to her chagrin. A Chinese proverb says, "Ox and Horse cannot be in the same stall."

SHEEP (GOAT)- for those born in the years: 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015.

The PARTNER for the male sign of the Horse - Yang is the Sheep - Yin. These two signs represent two aspects of the ancestral home. The Buddhist sages chose the Sheep to symbolize the feminine principle, since the herds of sheep are made up almost entirely of females. In Chinese, the word "sheep" is denoted by the same character as "goat", although it is sometimes translated as "ram".

The sheep represents a wide range of symbolic qualities that are reflected in the characters of many people. These are, first of all, her herd feelings and blind following of the crowd. Other representatives of this sign are less suitable for a herd animal, preferring to be in the company of one or two selected friends. But there are many good qualities, which are characteristic of all those born under the sign of the Sheep. One of them is the veneration of such arts as singing and dancing, in which the performance can be both solo and as part of a choir and ensemble. As far as fine arts go, Sheep is likely to favor drawings done in pastels and muted colors over neo-modern bright colors. The decoration and decoration of the house is also maintained in the same colors.

In personal relationships, Sheep prefers to establish permanent connections, especially in marriage. However, not every Sheep is able to establish ideal relationships with other people. An individual Sheep may seem self-sufficient and philosophical about his destiny, but he does not consider his lonely existence as a blessing. family life plays important role For this sign of the Chinese Zodiac, it is the devoted Sheep that is most likely to have strong family ties.

From a career point of view, Sheep will be best satisfied with teamwork. A life associated with music or dance may be a secret and desirable preference for a member of this sign, but a profession that has to do with people, such as working with personnel, will be a more natural and immediate choice for a Sheep.

The spirit of collectivism and camaraderie is so strong in people of this sign that, unfortunately, they develop a sense of indifference to the manifestations of individuality in other people. The sheep, for whom everything looks the same, like other sheep, refuses to believe that her colleagues and friends do not share her taste and habits, do not root for the same team and do not enjoy the same pie. And when for the first time she is faced with the fact that everything in life is completely different, she may experience bitter disappointment, and the sooner this happens, the better she will understand people outside the close family circle.

Conversely, fate will test the Sheep if it ends up in the hands of more persistent colleagues, especially those in leadership positions. Such people may view the Sheep as a naive and accommodating nature, taking its compliant nature for granted. That is why it is believed that underestimating the integral nature of the Sheep can cause trouble, because, forced to take extreme steps, the soft and submissive Sheep turns into a hostile goat, capable of taking steps with devastating consequences.

It is more common for a sheep not to delve deeply into the essence of things, but to look at them superficially, believing that details that she does not delve into will appear on their own. In business, such people are more successful where they deal with people and things. In cases where the Sheep does not feel his calling, she leaves the subtleties of the matter in the hands of more successful and competent specialists. Appearance Sheep is always disposable, confident and friendly: she always prefers comfortable and attractive clothes, in which you can safely go after a business meeting to an evening reception.

Ideal Partner: The Sheep's inherent attachment to the family shows that her ideal partner is a domestic Pig or a caring Rabbit. Each of them can bring happiness to the Sheep in partnership, which this sign dreamed of deep down. If the Sheep is content with a secondary role in her relationships with partners, then the ardent Horse for her is a wonderful stall partner. The Rooster, as well as the Snake, can be attractive to a Sheep to a certain extent, but the Ox as a partner will cause headaches and grief.

MONKEY- for those born in the years: 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016.

ZODIAC SIGN NAMES for animals and Monkey and Rooster have little in common with their ancient signs, but are based on their astrological interpretation. These two signs combine skill and technology together: the Yang quality represents everything related to technology and heavy engineering, while its opposite, Yin, design and handicraft.

On Chinese clocks, the hour of the Monkey is the last hour of the day, ending just before sunset. The ancient symbol that reflected this sign showed a skin stretched on a frame, meaning something that was stretched with difficulty.

The monkey is a popular character in Chinese legends, naughty and mischievous in the classic tale, who accompanied the monk Xuan Can on his perilous and perilous journey to the west. In epic poems, the monkey embodies the essence of human nature, its fragility and moral instability, which, however, can be improved through good deeds and hard work.

The astrological symbolism of the Monkey lies in the ease shown both in words and in deeds. She is capable of metal work, ranging from the smallest details when working with jewelry and watches to huge structures such as cars and bridges. A person born under the sign of the Monkey and not possessing golden hands is very talkative and has a sharp tongue, which allows him to successfully fulfill the role of a lawyer in court.

But such qualities of the Monkey as the gift of eloquence and the ability to touch should be used for good. On the one hand, the hands of the bearer of this zodiac sign are capable of performing complex surgical operations; but on the other hand, his hands can successfully open a bank safe. The Monkey, caught in the dock, can impress lawyers with the ability to defend itself, skillfully defending its positions. When someone is said to be inventive like a Monkey, then the actions of such a person should be treated with great caution. What may begin as a person's desire to improve his life can actually turn into a complete disaster for him if this sign's ability to ingenuity is misused. The financial situation of Monkeys is often unstable, but there are better times, perhaps even associated with wealth. The secret of this lies in the ability of this sign to use any chance to achieve success.

If the Monkey is the head of the family, then it is rather difficult to maintain a calm atmosphere in such a house, since the young members of this family imitate their overly active parent - the bearer of this sign. But always one of the family members in a difficult situation should serve as a support and protection.

Having worthy partners with sufficient resources and having a specific goal, the Monkey is able to prove himself next to them in bright creative activity, going headlong into the implementation of his ambitious projects that cause admiration of others. If the Monkey grows wiser as a result life experience, then she will not allow the achieved position and wealth to take precedence over the essence of her nature. On the contrary, it will again begin to make plans and projects that can benefit everyone.

However, in a team, the Monkey can behave very inconspicuously, preferring something insignificant and not so conspicuous, avoiding bright manifestations in clothes. She loves small embellishments or embroidery on clothing items, as well as very elegant jewelry. All this reflects the features of her complex nature.

Ideal partner: With partners such as the Rat and the Dragon, one of which acts as a life partner, and the other as a relative or friend, the Monkey can achieve amazing personal success and reach the heights of human happiness. That is why the task of the Monkey is to find these two partners. For more humble life friendship, comfort and security for life will be provided by the Horse, and she could have fun days with the Dog. As for the Tiger, it is unlikely that he will become an obedient and pliable partner.

ROOSTER- for those born in the years: 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017.

WHAT IS THE COMPLEX CHARACTER of the Rooster! This is partly evident from the conflicting symbolism of the Rooster: although it is associated with a signal for the onset of sunrise, however, on the Chinese clock, it means the time of sunset, when birds return to their nests for the night.

That is why the Rooster is associated with any activity in evening time. Under the influence of the Rooster there are such areas of creativity as music, drawing, recitation, theater, concert activity, and the like.

Although the Rooster is a Yin, a female sign, it is considered to be overly assertive and the most assertive of all the Yin signs, and therefore, to some extent, possesses many of the Yang qualities that are so inherent in the authoritative and imposing Tiger. Roosters are rather good speakers and lovers of chatting than interesting interlocutors, and they do not make a conscious effort to somehow soften the nature of harsh statements. Their frank and direct manner of expressing their thoughts can come across as overly blunt and is often perceived as sheer rudeness.

At home, this behavior leaves no doubt who is the real owner. He can only feel sorry for the person whose behavior will cause discontent on the part of the Rooster. At the same time, the Rooster may not necessarily be the actual head of the family, but in any case, its significance is never questioned.

In the astrological sense, the concepts of "Rooster" and "money" are almost identical. Although the Roosters have a keen sense of business people and prudently set aside funds in reserve, nevertheless, from time to time they violate some budget expenditure items, openly demonstrating amazing waste. A woman born under the sign of the Rooster is more likely to carry money into the house than a male Rooster, who is more likely to squander it.

Always striving to be the first among those who can hear something new or transmit latest news, Roosters have everything necessary qualities enabling them to become good newspapermen and magazine contributors. But whatever career the Roosters choose, those aspects of work that are inherent in the female character will be more successful for them.

Like rural roosters, people born under this astrological sign prefer to get up early in the morning to get down to business, and are awake long before the rest of the family wakes up. As a rule, they need less sleep to recuperate than other people. They may express concern about this, considering it a violation of the activities of their body. But this will not be a problem with the correct construction of their daily work schedule. However, there is one factor in their behavior that should be carefully monitored in Everyday life. The prototype of this sign was not in vain in the ancient symbol of the wine bottle. One Rooster in a full horoscope is not considered an unfavorable sign. When the second or third Rooster appears in the designation of such concepts as the hour, day and month, this may indicate the danger of abuse of alcoholic beverages, drugs or medications.

People born under the sign of the Rooster are proud and always like to make a favorable impression on others. They definitely need to be modern and dressed in the latest fashion. However, they will reject any frankly flashy and defiant clothing. They like to have others express their admiration for them, but in no case amazement. These people are exceptionally finicky and picky to the point of obsession when it comes to their appearance, clothing, and cosmetics. Noticing even the slightest disorder in their appearance, they experience not only shame, but also horror, which is very difficult to understand for less sensitive people.

Ideal partner: Who would like such an unpredictable and at the same time attractive personality? Those who make this choice must lack the qualities they most admire in the Rooster, although other people may find the Rooster's character traits the least attractive. The confident, reliable Ox and the calm and reserved Snake are good partners for the Rooster. Sheep or Pig are able to become partners and create an atmosphere of home comfort. As for the Tiger, Horse or other Rooster, they will have a sharp rivalry with each other, and not one will know which of them is the real leader.

DOG- for those born in the years: 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018.

In ancient Chinese treatises, the astrological sign, which we know as the Dog, was indicated by the form of a hand holding a spear. He indicated the time of day when security was provided for the hearth at night, and the watchman got up on duty. Through its determination, courage, fortitude and resilience, the Dog has become a natural means of security and protection.

The Dog and the Pig make up a pair of signs of partners who manage the house and household affairs. The dog is responsible for security outside the walls of the house, while the Pig guarantees home comfort. But the Dog is busy not only with the problems of safety and security of the house, but is also responsible for the construction of the dwelling itself. Many people born in the year of the Dog show an interest in construction, and not so much in the profession as such, but in the financing associated with it and investing some ideas in this process. The dog prefers to have its own housing, trying to constantly improve its size, quality and comfort.

This sign tends to be a keeper, and therefore the dog is able to make donations if something can be achieved through this. Persistent in work, accustomed to extracting the best from what is available, the Dog is able to endure such things that make others horrified.

The ability to protect your home and others makes the Dog a true and reliable friend. Alertness towards strangers is transmitted to such people at the genetic level, but if friendly relations have already been established, then they remain faithful, despite difficulties and obstacles. Dogs will always lend a helping hand, and absolutely disinterestedly. They like to volunteer their services, for any cause aimed at the benefit of a person. It is not surprising that they easily manage to make friends, but they have one drawback, at times dogs can be very gullible. Dishonest acquaintances, and even family members, abuse their good disposition and sympathetic character too much. If the dog is warned about the dubious actions of people whom he considers close, then such advice will be rejected with complete indifference.

Dogs love. to make their home a cozy haven, clean and tidy. In a family, such people always manage everything, but at the same time, the bonds between parents and children are fragile and not strong.

People born under the sign of the Dog love to spend free time in the fresh air, preferring to relax in the countryside or play sports. Therefore, it is very important for the Dog to choose a partner who will share her love in fresh air, or one that is willing to allow the dog to spend time on its own in accordance with its hobby.

When choosing professional career preference is given military service or work in the field of safety and security. The nature of the dog is suitable for such activities as real estate transactions, as well as work on the construction and restoration of housing. At the same time, the Dog should always have the opportunity to work outside the institution, since working indoors will inevitably lead to depression. In the external appearance of the dog there are both traits of sanity and practicality. Women prefer a style that emphasizes their dignity, while men, on the contrary, prefer a playful manner of dressing. Both those and others strive to look like business people and at the same time have.

IDEAL PARTNER: The Dog is in close alliance with the Tiger and the Horse, and since they have many common interests, both of them will create a long and lasting relationship with the Dog. The pig can be considered a more suitable domestic partner for this sign, who tends to spend time outside the home. But both of them will have to learn to understand and take into account the interests of each other. As for the Ox, over time he will seem sullen, grumpy and gloomy, and the Dragon can run away with all the money of the Dog.

PIG- for those born in the years: 1935, 1947, 1959,1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019.

The Chinese sign, which previously reflected the sign of the Pig before the introduction of animal names, is said to have represented two people in a bed under the roof of a house. The pig symbolized the last hours of the Chinese day, when the family went to bed, and only the light snoring of the sleeping household was heard, at peace with themselves.

People born under the sign of the Pig are among the most pleasant personalities that you can meet in this life. They are friendly, warm to other people, generous, cheerful and sociable.

The house of a person born under the sign of the Pig is always comfortable, often luxurious, and at the same time always open and friendly to guests. Although the Pig, by its nature, does not belong to persistent and stubborn people, and is easily content with a subordinate role in the family, household members will certainly recognize its superiority in matters of home comfort.

The lifestyle that the Pig is used to requires hard work. Those who are not included in the circle of those close to the Pig may consider that she is very lucky financially. And at the same time, the situation around the Pig is the result, first of all, of her hard work, diligence and diligence. And if the Pig was at the right time and in the right place, this is not a coincidence, but careful planning, analysis and forecasting of the situation.

But the friendly nature of the Pig and the outward carefree attitude to life have their drawbacks. The desire to please everyone, as well as the complaisant nature of the Pig, is considered by others as a matter of course. The pig should remember the old adage that it is difficult to be merciful and sympathetic, but even more difficult not to be so. The pig can often be deceived, especially in financial transactions.

The most suitable profession for the Pig is the service industry, including interior design, hotel management, and all other areas where service provision is necessary. High Quality. People born in the year of the Pig make good social workers.

The Pig likes to dress fashionably, but as much as her income allows her. And although convenience and practicality come to the fore, there are always elements in clothes that cause envy in others, and they unwittingly copy the style of the Pig.

IDEAL PARTNER: Unfortunately, the Pig does not tend to make the right judgment about the nature of people, so she often enters into unpredictable relationships with not very worthy people. An ideal partner for a Pig can be a Rabbit or a Sheep, who are characterized by the same devotion to home and family. For a woman born in the year of the Pig, a man who shares her interest in improving the hearth will be ideal. Pig man may well attract a bright Rooster. But it is worth remembering that the extravagant taste of the Rooster costs him dearly and the family budget may simply not be able to withstand such waste.

| Eastern calendar

Eastern (Chinese) calendar of zodiac signs

The Eastern calendar, which has been in force for several thousand years in Vietnam, Kampuchea, China, Korea, Mongolia, Japan and some other Asian countries, was compiled during the time of the semi-legendary Emperor Huang Di in the middle of the third millennium BC. The Eastern calendar is a 60-year cyclical system. It is based on the astronomical cycles of the Sun, Earth, Moon, Jupiter and Saturn. The 60-year cycle includes a 12-year Jupiter cycle and a 30-year Saturn cycle. The most important for the life of nomads, and in those days the main peoples of the East were nomadic tribes, was considered the 12-year period of Jupiter. The ancient Chinese and Japanese believed that the normal movement of Jupiter brings benefits and virtues.

Dividing the path of Jupiter into twelve equal parts and giving each part the name of a certain animal, the peoples of Asia created a solar-Jupiter 12-year calendar cycle. Legend has it that all the animals were invited by the Buddha to celebrate the first New Year. The Buddha promised to give the animals a whole year each, which would be named after them. Only 12 animals came to the Buddha's invitation - a rat, a bull, a tiger, a rabbit, a dragon, a snake, a horse, a sheep, a monkey, a rooster, a dog. The pig was the last to meet the Buddha.

According to another legend, the Buddha summoned animals before leaving the earth. A rat, a bull, a tiger, a rabbit, a dragon, a snake, a horse, a sheep, a monkey, a rooster, a dog and a pig came to say goodbye to the Buddha. The grateful Buddha gave these 12 animals one year of reign each.

The Eastern calendar begins with the year of the rat and ends with the year of the pig. It is widely believed in the East that these animals have the ability to give certain traits to those born in this year of the animal, both good and bad.

Jupiter completes five rotations in sixty years. This number corresponded to the worldview of Chinese natural philosophy. The number five was a symbol of the five elements of nature - wood, fire, metal (gold), water, earth, which correspond to color designations (blue, red, yellow, white, black).
The Chinese sixty-year-old was formed as a result of the combination of the duodecimal cycle ("earthly branches"), for each year of which the name of the animal was assigned, and the decimal cycle of the "elements" ("heavenly branches"): five elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, water) , each of which corresponded to two cyclic signs, personifying the male and female principles (therefore, in the Chinese calendar there are consecutive years corresponding to different animals, but one element).

12 animals, 5 elements - hence the cycle Eastern calendar is 60 years old. This cycle begins with the year of the Wood Rat and ends with the year of the Water Pig. The next 60-year cycle of the Eastern calendar began on February 2, 1984. Animal years repeat every 12 years, and the elements - every 10 years.
The choice of these planets when creating the eastern calendar is explained by the fact that the Sun influences the development of the human spirit, the Moon influences physical development bodies, Jupiter - controls the behavior of people in public life, and the planet Saturn - forms the individual characteristics of a person.

AT recent times In Russia, the eastern calendar is becoming increasingly popular. There is no fixed date for the Eastern New Year. New Year according to the eastern calendar, it occurs on the first new moon, which occurs in the zodiac sign Aquarius. The Sun enters Aquarius on January 20 or 21 and ends on February 18. Therefore, the New Year according to the eastern calendar comes from January 20 to February 18, at which time one fabulous animal passes the reins of power to another.

Animal signs will help determine the prospects of relationships between people (friendly, love or business).
It's better to start with general characteristics animal sign.
Even more accurate data can be obtained by determining the animal sign of the hour of birth. According to Chinese astrology, the day is divided into 12 periods, each of which corresponds to a certain animal sign. This means that a person born in the hour of any animal will have the features of this sign. Here are the correspondences of birth time to animal signs:

23.00 - 01.00 - time of the Rat

17.00 - 19.00 - Rooster time
19.00 - 21.00 - Dog time
21.00 - 23.00 - Boar time

Eastern calendar signs

Chinese astrologers divide all animal signs into four groups (three in each). It is generally accepted that people born under the signs of the same group have similar features that determine the course of their thoughts, which ultimately allows them to get along well with each other, support each other and get along together. This does not mean at all that they have the same character or actions, just the innate features of their personalities successfully complement each other and contribute to the disclosure best sides other people from the same group. It has been observed that partnerships, friendships and especially marriages between those born under the signs of the same group are most successful.

Competitors- , and . All these signs are very gravitate toward rivalry and decisive action. Rats need the self-confidence and courage of the Dragon, because. extremely insecure. In turn, the Dragon is too direct and sometimes he just needs the quick wit of the Rat or even the cunning of the Monkey. The latter highly appreciate the intelligence of the Rat and the enthusiasm of the Dragon.
Intellectuals- , and . People belonging to these signs are great pragmatists, strong personalities, often endowed with great abilities, self-confident, purposeful and decisive. Among them there are thinkers and seers. The Bull is constant and firm, but it is favorably influenced by the brightness of the Rooster and the charm and dexterity of the Snake. The directness of the Rooster is balanced by the diplomatic Snake or the self-confident Ox, and the Snake, with all its ambition, can reach great heights if it is assisted by the Ox or the Rooster.
Independent- , and . These people - emotional, impulsive, restless and extremely principled - are a kind of "free spirits" Chinese zodiac. The Horse is a born strategist, but in order to translate something into reality, she needs a decisive Dog or an impulsive Tiger. He can also give an outlet to the restlessness of the Horse, while only the Dog is able to calm her down. The Tiger will also benefit from communicating with the Dog - her unfailing good nature will keep him from excessive cruelty.
Diplomats- (Cat), and. People of these signs are restrained, unsophisticated, not great intellectuals, they are not attracted by risk. But they are modest and sympathetic, sociable and sensitive, tenderly care for each other and are always happy to do something nice. The sagacity of the Rabbit balances the generosity of the Sheep, and the latter needs a sense of the priorities that the Rabbit gives her. The power of the Boar complements the condescending nature of the Sheep and the strategic thinking of the Rabbit.

The signs of the eastern calendar are often depicted in a circle in a certain order, sometimes compass directions are marked on it. Looking at such a circle, it is easy to see that each sign is directly opposite the other sign. These are antagonistic signs, and they are considered absolutely incompatible! There are six such pairs, and within each pair an astrological conflict invariably develops. The causes of these conflicts lie deep in the nature of people born under opposite signs; they are involuntary and manifest themselves mainly in the way they react to the surrounding reality and other people. Here are the couples:

The validity of these observations is confirmed, among other things, by the fact that in China, parents, as a rule, do not approve of the marriage of children with people 6 years older or younger. They are well aware that conflicts and insoluble problems will certainly arise in such a union, and therefore it is very dangerous to ignore this incompatibility in love. Another thing is friendship, which in most cases is not harmed by astrological conflicts, because. friends don't usually live together. In business, however, incompatibilities can also get in the way, because different people in this case, they are forced to spend a large amount of time side by side from day to day.
Do not despair if the results of the relationship analysis according to eastern horoscope render disappointing; pay attention to the signs and elements corresponding to the month and hour of birth, because under their influence characteristics a person's personality can both weaken and strengthen.
In China, they say that if the fate destined for a person from above cannot be changed, then his lot can be improved. They believe in the unity of "tian", "ti" and "jen" (heaven, earth and man), which means that the two components of a happy fate - earthly luck and human (the third - heavenly luck) - are in the hands of the person himself.
