Introduction
This unique reading is based on Five Element Theory, one of the
oldest ideas used in Chinese astrology and a key component as well
of Chinese philosophy and medicine. The five elements are
associated with the five directions (North, South, East, West and
Center) and as such have a 4,000 year history in Chinese thought.
In contrast animals have been used as convenient short hand for
designating years but not as integral components of horoscopes
until very modern times. Even today many traditional astrologers do
not even mention animals in their readings!
Simply put the theory states that the energy of the universe
manifests itself through five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal
and Water. Ideally there is a roughly equal number of each element
in a chart, thus signifying balance and harmony.
The reading to follow explains how the elements in your chart
reflect your personality. There are two primary considerations: the
number of times each element appears in the chart and their overall
balance.
Your Chinese Astrology Signs:
Year Wood Rat
Month Earth Dragon
Day Wood Monkey

Year Element Wood
Year Element Polarity Yang (+)
Fixed Element of Year Sign Water
Section 1 -- Year Sign
The Chinese year sign consists of two characters, one designating
an element and the other an animal. They are equally important in
compiling and explaining a horoscope. In fact elements actually
carry more weight. This is because each animal sign has a fixed
element from which it derives many of its characteristics.
Your year sign is Wood Rat
Fixed Element
Each of the 12 (animal) year signs is associated with one of four
elements, Wood, Fire, Water and Metal, three signs for each
element, Wood with Tiger, Rabbit and Dragon; Fire with Snake, Horse
and Sheep; Metal with Monkey, Rooster and Dog; and Water with Pig,
Rat and Ox. Some astrologers, however, also use Earth. For them,
Earth goes with Ox, Dragon, Sheep and Dog.. The other signs have
the same correspondences. In fact the Ox, Sheep and Dog are rather,
down-to-earth type signs. The Dragon, however, is the most quixotic
of the 12 signs. This reading uses the first method, which is the
one most commonly used.
Since each of the four elements is associated with three very
different animal signs, it is not surprising that their influence
is manifest in different ways. Consider Water for example. In the
Pig it is exhibited as a go-with-the-flow approach to life, not
unlike Water taking the shape of its container. In the Rat there is
mental and physical dexterity. And, the Ox is fluid in the sense of
adjusting to the demands of continually taking on the burdens of
others. There are also similarities among the three signs, for
example, an innate ability to develop communications skills.
Your fixed element is Water
The ability to communicate is one of the primary qualities
associated with Water. Since you are a yang, Rat-sign person, you
may tend to be a good speaker as well as writer. Water is often
connected with artistic ability and, with your communications
skills, could thus also be manifest in your potential to be an
author.
Flexibility is another trait common to Water-sign people. It makes
a positive contribution to your mental and physical dexterity. This
is especially true when it comes to your being able to make quick
adjustments to get yourself out of difficult situations.
You may prefer the direct approach when it comes to dealing with
people and situations; however, under the influence of Water you
are also comfortable by acting in a round about manner. This
heightens your ability to negotiate and a tendency to be a conniver
and manipulator. It also allows you to make maximum use of your
charm..
As a Rat, you probably tend to be independent and prefer being the
leader rather than a subordinate. Positive Water is not necessarily
associated with leadership, but it does provide some important
relevant capabilities. When it comes to the work environment you
could be opportunistic and entrepreneurial.
Rivers with their streams and tributaries seem to touch just about
everywhere. You likewise probably have an extensive network of
friends and, or, acquaintances. And, you may be emotionally
connected to many of them due to your empathy and general ability
to know how others are feeling.
Water in fact is associated with emotions. As a Rat-sign person,
however, your behavior is more often governed by reason, Your
tendency then is to hold your emotions inside yourself. Eventually
they abruptly rise to the surface, for example in fits of
temper.
Just as rivers sometimes traverse great distances and Water seems
to trickle endlessly after a rain, you probably get around and are
comfortable with travel. Indeed, in the legend explaining the order
of the 12 signs, the Rat is one of the first animals to cover the
distance to Buddha, thus earning the honor of being the first of
the 12 signs.
Finally, it must be said Water goes with mental, even psychic
abilities. You may or may not be an intellectual, but you are
likely to enjoy cards, board and, or, video games. If you choose,
you could probably do well in school. A downside to all this is
you're likely to spend a lot of time in your head. This could lead
to stress or at least difficulty in relaxing, as you may
continually find yourself thinking, if not worrying, about one
thing or another.
Wood Rats – Years 1924 and 1984---thats me!
Not nearly as self-confident as they appear on the surface, Wood
Rats will never expose this vulnerability to others. They’re
successful despite their perpetual fear of failing. Wood Rats enjoy
being with friends and family and fortunately for them, feelings of
love and respect are mutual.
Earth Dragons – month april
More rooted in the ground, Earth Dragons make better decisions
because they act more rationally. Earth Dragons are level-headed
and able to control their behaviors. They’re more supportive of
others, but they prefer being admired by others.
Wood Monkey – day 20th
The Wood Monkey’s exceptional communication skills enable them to
interact well with others. They’re hard workers who have a keen
understanding of the way things operate.
Water Monkey – hour of birth
Water Monkeys are extremely sensitive and often feel hurt by the
things that are said to them. They refuse to show their sensitive
side to others and as a result, are extreme jokesters. If they can
stay focused, they can succeed, but more often than not, they’re
easily distracted from their goals.

DragonflyBlade21: A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired.
gimme my 5% you ass
Jul 13, 2009
thats about it, i wanna get to 100% but i dont know why. artificial goals really pump me up sometimes. espically when they are usless to complete, then there is no pressure, so its easy. complicated? i didnt think so.
for those special few who do read this.
i am a hopeless romantic!
i still think that someday im going to run into some past love of my life in a grocery store 20+ years from now. talk about how silly we both were back then, blame it on all the hormones and live happily ever after.
even though im over all my ex's, i still love them. even the ones that want to peel off my skin and roll me in salt...and vice versa. lol
i'm so geeky every time i see a text book, any text book on a super reduced sale, or goodwill outlet, corner book store, i have to buy it. even if its astonishingly out of date. those are some of the best!
i love my cat platonicly. he loves me like a rapist would love hellen keller.
sometimes im inappropiate, like when im talking, or awake. please forgive me, it's a defense mechanism designed out of the need to see how far i can push you before you snap, for my own amusement.
if i ever get to rough on you, the safety word is piggeon feet. or anything else hilarious enough to get me to stop what im doing to laugh.
thank you for your time
