I\'m a Fiery Horse - what are you?

[RedDawn]

Well, when we were visiting Duende and her family a couple of weeks ago she started talking about a website called Fire Pig that would tell you your Chinese sign including your element, etc. She checked mine out and it turns out I\'m a Fiery Horse. (Who woulda guessed? :innocent: )

Sign - Horse
Element - Fire
Chinese Name - MA
Lunar Years of the Sign - 1930 1942 1954 1966 1978 1990 2002

Description of the Sign Year

Have we got spirit! Things can get kind of wild this year. For those who love freedom, love to head for the wild open spaces, or just love to party, this is your year. Impulsiveness and volatility are the rule. Be watchful of your finances and avoid speculative investments. You might put that extra energy you\'re experiencing to good use by joining a bowling or tennis league, a dance club, or heading for the great outdoors.

Description of the Sign Personality

Independent and sporty, the Horse is the male sign. The often flamboyant Horse tends to be the life of the party and is great fun to be around. They tend to love sports and, or, outdoor activities and don\'t mind some rough and tumble action. They function best when they have lots of freedom. The downside is they function poorly when bridled, e.g., tied down by routine. The Horse tends to be selfish and self absorbed, letting others fend for themselves, which is the Horse\'s preferred mode of operation. In spite of the enthusiasm with which they begin things, they tend to lose it rather quickly. You have to work to keep their interest. Ah, but it\'s worth it!

Description of the Sign-Element Personality

The Fire Horse either succeeds beyond our wildest imagination or goes down in flames; they are the movers and shakers of the world. . You tend to be volatile in the extreme and not afraid to take even the most dangerous risks. Depending on how much artistic talent you have, you can be a flamboyant, charismatic performer. You add excitement to our lives and are great to have around---when you can control your temper and innate restlessness.

Description of the Sign-Element Year

This might appropriately be called the \"Genghis Khan\" year. It is perhaps the most turbulent year of all. You\'ll find yourself getting caught up in the mood and taking risks you wouldn\'t ordinarily take. If you can exercise even a little bit of practicality, you won\'t regret the thrill.

Description of Home Life

The Horse enjoys being the life of the party; so, you can bet their households will play host to many a social gathering. When company calls you are almost always happy to entertain. You enjoy doing things with your hands, and in your home we may well find items of hand made furniture---made by you. You love the outdoors, and when we stop by, it is likely we\'ll find you outside on the patio or in your (spacious) back yard.

Rabbit


Description of the Year:

Fire enhances the Rabbit\'s emotional sensitivities making this a roller coaster kind of year. You will frequently become absorbed in your feelings, reveling in your highs and wallowing in self-pity during lows. It\'s a year for adventure, which could be as simple as going with a new hairstyle on an individual level on up to initiating a bold, new peace initiative in the international arena.


Description of Your Personality:

The Fire Rabbit is a Rabbit with spunk. You are more outgoing and decisive than other Rabbits. On the downside, you do tend to have sudden emotional outbursts and a fiery temper. Nevertheless, you still possess that sweet, gentle, Rabbit disposition, are very popular and make good company. Like other Rabbits you like the classy look but are not afraid to put a touch of pizzazz in your fashions.

Sign
Dog

Element
Water

Chinese Name
GOU

Lunar Years of the Sign
1946 1958 1970 1982 1994 2006 2018

Description of the Sign Year
The noble Dog focuses our attention on values including family, loyalty
and justice. It\'s an auspicious year for marriage or just increasing
quality time spent with our families. Be patriotic, enthusiastically
celebrate holidays, and go to that company picnic and church social. Get
involved in a cause, especially one pertaining to the environment. The
Dog is the sign of the protector; so, it\'s also a great time to do a home
check and make sure that you have adequate security and have addressed
any safety concerns.

Description of the Sign Personality
Loyal and protective, the Dog makes a great friend or family member
and inspires the confidence of everyone around them. They have a strong
sense of justice and duty. They aggressively defend their rights and are
not afraid to speak up on behalf of others. The Dog is very protective
of family and anything entrusted to their care. They\'re not that social
but will sacrifice everything for family. The Dog is a natural
pessimist and a worrier---many becoming quite cynical. They tend to be
introverts who rarely show their feelings and usually hate crowds. Still, you
want the honest, hard-working Dog on your team.

Description of the Sign-Element Personality
The Water Dog is the gentlest and most intuitive of the species. You
tend to be popular and at home in group settings. It\'s also probable you
are a good communicator, using the spoken or written word and sometimes
both. Although you hold firm to your opinions, you are willing to
listen to the views of others. Flexible Water makes you less stubborn than
other Dog sign people.

Description of the Sign-Element Year
Although for a very different reason, this year, like the Fire year, is
one in which the Dog is a bit more outspoken. This year is a great one
to write those letters to the editor, to your congress person, or to
that company whose product or activity you find objectionable. It\'s also
a great year to work on family communications. If you\'ve ever had
trouble breaking through to your child, this year offers your best chance.

Description of Home Life
Simple and homely is what you can expect from the household of the Dog.
Dog\'s like to lay back and relax, so the furniture you find will be
conducive to naps and downtime. Being the responsible type, the Dog will
promptly perform needed maintenance and generally keep the house neat
and clean.

I guess I\'m a Wuss...

and I thought being a Virgo was gay... lol

Rabbit:

Description of Your Personality:

The Water Rabbit shows great sensitivity and constantly promotes harmony. Unfortunately, you are too often overly sensitive and easily hurt. You are kind and generous--- almost to a fault, and it is easy to take advantage of your generosity. You tend to be friendly and easygoing, a joy to be around. It wouldn\'t be surprising if you were drawn to artistic pursuits and either participate actively or are somewhat of a connoisseur.

I like that last part, but the rest makes me sound like a doormat.

You do realize that your months are different and that the Chinese years run much differently?

@Leopardpixie - Not if you\'re a girl...

 

[philologus]

I\'m a Tiger with Wood! I mean a wood tiger; or something:


Description of the Year:

Wood is the element of creativity and the Tiger\'s natural element. Create or redesign your home page on the internet. It will be even more rewarding if you combine travel with your passions. Do the hula in Hawaii or paint that masterpiece in Tahiti. And, don\'t forget to satisfy your humanitarian instincts by doing some volunteer work in your community.


Description of Your Personality:

Passion and creativity are the hallmarks of the Wood Tiger. What a great sign for the performing arts or any career that puts you in front of the public where you can use your creative ability and, or, leadership skills. You are the most mellow of Tigers and therefore not so domineering. You tend to be very popular, especially since you are probably charismatic.

 

[ipaintminis]

Mine!

FIRE TIGER *rawrrrrr*

Description of the Year:

Fasten your seatbelt; this is the year for excitement. It will come whether or not you seek it. Enjoy the ride. As long as you exert a reasonable amount of self-control you will experience some of the most enjoyable times of your life. Begin a new romance, travel to some exotic spot, do something wild and different. When life throws you something exciting but far from enjoyable, just go with it and let it pass. The fun times will far outweigh the difficulties this year if you keep the right attitude.


Description of Your Personality:

Fire plus Tiger equals a stick of dynamite, a human dynamo. In addition to the Tiger\'s usual passion and creativity, you have seemingly endless energy. You are among the greatest risk takers and do not hesitate to push the limits in almost anything you do. When you control your temper and penchant for melodrama, you are among the most colorful, fun people to be around. Depending on your level of common sense you can do big things or fail spectacularly.

sounds interesting...

but i just like making the *rawr* noise :]

They tend to be introverts who rarely show their feelings and usually hate crowds. Still, you want the honest, hard-working Dog on your team.

Description of the Sign-Element Personality
With the Metal Dog we have an irresistible force and an immovable object. You are not afraid to \"deal with\" whatever gets in your way, and you won\'t be gentle about it. You tend to be very principled and determined and don\'t look kindly on those deemed unpatriotic or disloyal. We definitely want you on our side in a fight.

Description of the Sign-Element Year
This is likely to be a \"heavy\" year, one in which it\'s difficult to remain optimistic. The trick is to use the positive energy of Metal to attack those realistic projects you have identified. If you tackle risky projects and fail, the gloom could be overwhelming.

Description of Home Life
Simple and homely is what you can expect from the household of the Dog. Dog\'s like to lay back and relax, so the furniture you find will be conducive to naps and downtime. Being the responsible type, the Dog will promptly perform needed maintenance and generally keep the house neat and clean.

Sign
Snake

Element
Fire

Chinese Name
SHE

Lunar Years of the Sign
1942 1954 1966 1978 1990 2002 2014

Description of the Sign Year
It is the job of the Snake to tie up all the loose ends created by the
flamboyant Dragon. This is also a good year for introspection and for planning.
Reassess the past and plot your future. It\'s a great year for making money with
wise investments and for buying those high fashion outfits for the classy
dresser. If your spouse is likely to stray, watch out especially this year.
Don\'t be surprised to see a juicy sex scandal or two in the news.

Description of the Sign Personality
Depth and charisma make the Snake a formidable presence. What you see is not
what you get. The Snake\'s many interests and insatiable thirst for knowledge
result in an increasingly complex persona. Furthermore, with the Snake\'s
penchant for secrecy, they\'re not likely to let us see how much is there is to
know about them. More than any other sign, the Snake knows how to present
itself, when it wants, in the most favorable light. The downside of this is that
the Snake is likely to tire of and discard us lesser mortals. An even bigger
danger is the Snake believes in revenge; so, don\'t cross them. Like the Dragon,
the Snake is a karmic sign and likely to experience lots of extreme highs and
lows in their lives.

Description of the Sign-Element Personality
Fire and Snake, what a combination! Exuding charm and charisma you can seize the
initiative and do not hesitate to assume leadership positions. Even for a Snake
your appetite for achievement is insatiable. You are often driven to pursue
lofty goals, and your thirst for knowledge is unquenchable. You also know how to
present yourself in a manner sure to dazzle the most discriminating observer.

Description of the Sign-Element Year
This will be a magical year. Don\'t be surprised if you\'re drawn to people and
events unexpectedly. There is a subtle mixture of energy and introspection in
the air. Think those deep thoughts, and then go do something with them. This is
a time for action.

Description of Home Life
The secretive nature of the Snake makes their home one of subtle surprise. Your
furnishings are usually of the highest quality while leaving detail to be
discovered. We have to be careful how we tread through your household as we
might unknowingly offend and become subject to your occasionally revengeful
nature. Ah, but the ambiance and luxury is well worth the risk.

An Earthly monkey here.

Sign Monkey

Element Earth

Chinese Name HOU [note, this is just the phonetical pronounciation of the monkey sign in Chinese.]

Lunar Years of the Sign 1932 1944 1956 1968 1980 1992 2004

Description of the Sign Year
This could even be called the year of the Gremlins. Expect the unexpected. The Monkey\'s \"harmless\" pranks will throw a Monkey wrench into more than one of your plans. Still, there is lots of fun to be had. Be flexible, open-minded, and have contingency plans. People with sharp wits, lots of versatility and good communications skills will flourish. Those ruled by the heart may be frustrated with all the Monkey\'s head games. Still, the trickster Monkey provides good value, and we willingly line up to be tricked again!

Description of the Sign Personality
Versatile and playful, the Monkey brings a lot of joy into our lives. They are adept at a wide range of skills and can be successful in almost any occupation. Their innocent playfulness, coupled with sparkling charm, make them fun companions. As with the Rat, the Monkey spends a lot of time in their heads. They are often artistic, clever, and, or, intellectual. On the downside, they think and worry too much. When young, Monkeys tend to be overly naive, eventually getting burned. Some then become overly suspicious and unable to trust people. Although they are great at making the rest of us happy, they all too often have trouble making themselves happy.

Description of the Sign-Element Personality
The Earth Monkey is the most reliable of the species. You are generous and will have one or more charities in which you display a keen interest. You can be quite the intellectual and most likely will be seeking formal education off and on throughout your life. If not, it\'s probable you will be an avid reader. You may not be as sociable as other Monkeys, but then again what Monkey can turn down a party invitation?

Description of the Sign-Element Year
Earth stabilizes the otherwise changeable Monkey. Surprises there will be this year but at least they\'ll be less frequent than other Monkey years. There will be fun and playfulness, but it will usually be expected and better planned. This is a good year to enjoy the fun without the worry.

Description of Home Life
The mischievous Monkey is more comfortable living in the depths of a vivacious city versus the calm of the suburbs. Chances are when visiting a monkey, you\'ll be going to a condo, not a house. Those who are confined to a more peaceful family lifestyle often immerse themselves in a hobby or pastime.

There\'s your thing, Sith! Remember the Chinese new year is in Februrary so your January birthday probably gets the sign from the previous year.

BirthDay
Saturday, April 24, 1971


Chinese Name
ZHU

Lunar Years of the Sign
1935 1947 1959 1971 1983 1995 2007

Description of the Sign Personality
Pure hearted and hedonistic(these two terms can go together?), the Pig is the last but not least of the
12 signs. If for no other reason, Pigs have more fun(Wheeee!). Who can\'t help but
like the easy going, helpful, courteous and kindly Pig? They make
great friends and sensual lovers.(Geez, I hope Markus doesn\'t read this ) Yes, Pigs love anything that appeals to
the senses, music, jacuzzis, and of course good food and drink(Spot on!). And, no
one more optimistically looks forward to the joys of retirement. On the
down side, Pigs are often naive and trusting to a fault. It\'s no
challenge to con a Pig. They\'re not that great when it comes to managing
money either(Great... Anybody got a bridge thay wanna sell me?). And, they can be impulsive, often reacting to a situation
without thinking. These faults and a gentle nature often mask the Pig\'s
very real inner strength.

Description of the Sign-Element Personality
Although the Pig is generally thought of as a gentle sign, the Metal
Pig is a fighter. You rarely back down, and with your super charged
emotions, can be a formidable foe. You have great determination and tend to
be a workaholic(OK, that\'s wrong! Workaholic, I\'m Not!). In a position of authority you can be domineering and
inflexible(NO, I\'m NOT, and don\'t try to tell me any differently!! !). Fortunately, like Pigs in general, you usually have the
best of intentions; so, people will put up with your sometimes abrasive
manner.


Description of Home Life
The Pig is a sign of peace throughout the Orient. The Pig\'s home will
be just that, peaceful, comfortable, and inviting. Expect to find the
Pig\'s family eating, drinking, listening to some great music, or
cuddling by the fireplace(I wish my house had a fireplace.), generally enjoying the comfort of their own home.
A Pig\'s home will almost always be occupied(That certainly explains why I\'m such a homebody).

Water Rat

Description of Your Personality:

The Water Rat is the gentlest of the breed. You probably have good communications skills and are likely a good people person. You are fun to be around and the first one we seek out when we want to know what\'s happening. Flexibility comes naturally to you, and you readily adapt to changing circumstances. Also, you most likely will be a lifelong learner.

You know, that\'s mostly quite accurate, except for this bit;
\"You probably have good communications skills and are likely a good people person. You are fun to be around and the first one we seek out when we want to know what\'s happening. \"
