Year of the Rooster 1909, 1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005

The Rooster is honest,frank, obliging, and courageous. But their principal defects are that they're also vain, thoughtless, and preoccupied with their appearance. They make wonderful workers, completely immersing themselves in the task at hand. They're very extravagant spenders, and cannot resist temptation. Roosters aren't the luckiest of people-- all their lives, they will be forced to scratch the earth in search of food. But those who are born in the spring are more tolerable, as they aren't such braggarts as other Roosters can be. Roosters cannot live without their admirers; they enjoy seduction. They also dislike others trying to probe into their private lives, or attempts to expose their motives. Roosters work best in commerical professions.

During a Rooster's childhood, youth, and maturity, they will have a roller coaster life, full of extreme ups and downs. Great joys, great sorrows, riches, poverty, many friends, solitude. As soon as a Rooster attains emotional stability, though, and becomes settled in a profession, his life will calm down. Eventually, all Roosters will enjoy a happy old age.

Both male and female roosters are charming and precocious in their love lives. The young female Rooster always has a string of admirers following her, which she has complete control over. She can be carried away by passion, but will never lose her head, because under her carefree and frivolous exterior, there is a keen sense of responsibility. Male roosters are not always easy to live with, since they jealously guard their independence and dislike interference. Tradition has it that they make better friends than lovers because of their offhand manner and frankness. Young male roosters enjoy the thrill of the chase, and will rapidly discard those women who give in too quickly. Difficulty attracts and inspires him. The Rooster will be faithful, but to several people at one time.
