Uncannily sensitive and psychic. The depths from which this person can cull emotion is unparalled.
Think of a crab - mushy on the inside, but hard shell covering, with protective pinchers. Crabs scuttle along sideways. You must make it past their defenses, and into their heart. Once you are there, you can bask in the glow of a unqualified type of love we all wish our mothers had to give us.
Positive Characteristics:
tenacious, intuitive, maternal, domestic, sensitive, retentive, helpful, sympathetic, emotional, patriotic, good memory, traditional
Negative Characteristics:
brooding, touchy, sensitive, negative, manipulative, overly cautious, lazy, selfish, self-pitying, traditional
hmm some of that is spot on concerning me.. some not so convinced about..
lets see next chineses Zodiac.
The Year of the Ox
1913, 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997
People born in the Year of the Ox are patient, speak little, and inspire confidence in others. They tend, however, to be eccentric, and bigoted, and they anger easily. They have fierce tempers and although they speak little, when they do they are quite eloquent. Ox people are mentally and physically alert. Generally easy-going, they can be remarkably stubborn, and they hate to fail or be opposed. They are most compatible with Snake, Rooster, and Rat people.
Now much of that is absolutely spot on... except bigoted i'm about as far removed from being bigoted as one can get I don't hate easy and when I do it is bright in intensity but brief in duration..hating requires too much effort to maintain..ugh liking folks is much easier.
Hmm be warned all I'm waxing philosophical tonight.. heh
