Chinese Astrology

do you find the astrolgy accurate?

The chinese know their stuff.

Mine is pretty dead on accurate of me.

The rat is revered for its quick wits and its ability to accrue and hold on to items of value. Clever and quick-witted, the Rat of the Chinese Zodiac is utterly disarming to boot. [lol...yep] Possessed of excellent taste, this Sign flaunts its style at every turn. [maybe when I was younger, but not so much now] Its natural charm and sharp, funny demeanor make it an appealing friend for almost anyone. [once they get to know me a little - depends, I can offend people without a sense of humor] The Rat likes to know who is on its side and will treat its most loyal friends with an extra measure of protection and generosity. [true]

Behind that sweet smile, though, Rats are keen and unapologetic promoters of their own agendas. [I have no agenda ]This Sign is motivated by its own interests, which often include money; greed can become a problem if the Rat isn't careful to keep its priorities straight. [true, good thing I have my priorities straight] This Sign's natural powers of charm and persuasion can definitely come in handy! [my wife agrees] Although they are often hoarders, Rats can be very generous to those in their pack, namely friends and family members who have proven their loyalty. [yep] Others might perceive them as quick-tempered and sharp-tongued, but never boorish. [lol] Verbal jousting is a great pleasure for the Rat, a Sign that everyone around will quickly learn either to love or to hate. [so true]

Rats enjoy being on the outside looking in, as the outside affords a view into the inner workings of a system or situation. The Rat's keen mind always seeks out new knowledge, to be stored away for future use. This ever-curious Sign also welcomes challenges as a way to stay sharp. If boredom sets in the Rat is no fun at all, but that isn't likely; this Sign knows how to keep itself entertained. [All true]

A valuable lesson for Rats is to learn to consider others above themselves, at least sometimes. If they can develop their sense of self and realize it leaves room for others in their life as well, Rats could find true happiness. [I learned this early by having good examples in my parents]

Like anything, sometimes these are right on, sometimes they are half true, sometimes they're a total miss. Exceptions to every rule ya know.

and it wasn't accurate

Same. It was almost the complete opposite.

I find Chinese astrolgoy pretty accurate.
I have a whole book of Chinese astrology and my sign is 99.9 accurate. It was not self fullfilling b/c I read the book only lately and it talks about my health, my career and my relationships and they are ALL accurate.

Well, I heard you eat like a horse.

My wife is a snake. So I'm a monkey with a snake. Hold on I gotta see what other creatures my kids are.

I'm a Tiger, Reow!

Tigers may not be the king of the jungle, but these striped cats are no softies! Magnetic and self-possessed, Tigers are born leaders. They have an air of authority that prompts others to fall in line, which is exactly how they like it. Although they are magnetically charming and fun to be around, Tigers like to go it alone sometimes too. A Tiger's main interest is in following its ambitions -- and maintaining control.

Tigers are courageous beyond compare and generally come out ahead in battle, be it in the boardroom or the bedroom. Seduction is one area where the Tiger is definitely king! Noble and warm-hearted, Tigers have a natural, raw appeal that's extremely attractive to other Signs. They're not just about attraction, though; ever on the side of right, Tigers will fight the good fight to the bitter end if the cause is worthy. Opponents are wise to fear this feline.

A bit of caution is a good thing around Tigers, since they can pounce without warning. They experience mood swings and often feel things more intensely than others, the latter quality being both good and bad. They can react poorly under stress and are prone to emotional outbursts. This Sign's bristling sensitivity can send friend and foe running for cover.

A lesson that Tigers would be well-served to learn is moderation in all things. Once these cats can find their center and direct their considerable energies toward worthwhile endeavors (as opposed to racing through life), they will accomplish much.

Whoa. This is what it said when I checked my sign with my hubby's for compatibility:

Faded Hope - You two might as well head off to Vegas and marry the mandatory witnesses at a dive marriage joint. Your chances of success are just as high! The bright side of this is there was probably one glimmer of light in the beginning. Unfortunately, it was put out the minute you learned the first details about this man. Save yourselves the squabbling and move on.

Yep...This is me

In the West, the Dog is man's best friend, but in Chinese Astrology this Sign is a little more unpredictable than that. Dogs are loyal, faithful and honest and always stick to their firm codes of ethics. However, this Sign has trouble trusting others. It's generally quite trustworthy itself -- except for the occasional little white lies the Dog tells in order to make things go more smoothly. The Dog makes a wonderful, discreet and loyal friend (despite any white lies) and is an excellent listener. This Sign tends to root for the underdog and its keen sense of right and wrong makes it duty-bound to the core. The Dog's mantra seems to be, Live right, look out for the little people and fight injustice whenever possible.

Dogs can also be rather dogmatic, too. They don't go in for light social banter; instead, they go straight for home, expostulating on the topics that are most important to them. At these times the Dog's narrow-minded or stubborn side can become apparent; this Sign has trouble staying light and calm when an important issue is at stake. This Sign can also be very temperamental; mood swings characterize its emotional life and often the Dog needs to run off to be alone in order to recuperate. Part of the problem is the result of this Sign's load of irrational fears that turn into niggling anxieties that turn into hurt feelings and occasional grouchiness. This sensitive Sign needs to warm up to others over time and gradually learn to trust them. Without that trust as a foundation, Dogs can be judgmental and coarse.
The Dog's discerning nature does make it an excellent business person, one who can turn that picky, guarded nature into a keen sense of the truth of another's motives. Where love is concerned, Dogs often have a tough time finding the right match. They can be so anxious and overwrought in the romance dance that they'll stress their partner to the max! In any forum, this Sign is happiest when able to be quite physically active; at home or at work, the Dog will always be constructing something new or cleaning something up in order to make things better. Dogs need to work on controlling their irrational worries and would also be well-served to relax their mile-high standards, which can sometimes wind up alienating the ones they love.
