| The
Rooster Personality
Being born under the
tenth Chinese Animal sign makes for colorful and flamboyant characters.
The Rooster is a feisty individual: tough, resilient, confident and
strong-willed. Rooster people are proud, extroverted and theatrical. In
fact, many Rooster-born folk are them their due, they are also honest
and plain-speaking; as far as the Rooster is concerned, a spade is a
spade and the Rooster is happy to call it that. |

BASIC
CHARACTER
Rooster
are not given to trickery or underhandedness of any sort and they
despise deceit and disloyalty. Rooster people always like to put their
cards on the table and they respect those who are candid enough to do
the same. Despite this blunt, straightforward streak, the Rooster
is not just a plain, honest type of person. Roosters love mixing in
society. They are a great success at social gatherings and can be the
life and soul of any social occasion. Roosters can be witty, amusing and
entertaining. They are at their happiest in these situations, where they
can attract plenty of admiring attention but they do like being listened
to whether others want to or not and can get angry if they find anyone
else trying to enjoy the same role. Roosters like to crow and are not
known for their diplomacy or sensitivity to others. All Roosters like
showing off their fine feathers. |

Roosters can at times seem arrogant and highly opinionated and people
would describe them as cocky. They need to feel important and have a
large ego. They have great powers of deduction and rationality and like
to analyze every situation they meet. These Roosters need to make sure
they do not analyze instead of acting or taking heed of their true
feelings. Despite their air of tough self-righteousness, they are
idealistic to the hilt and will passionately work to improve the lot of
humankind. Learning to compromise and to tone down their seemingly
aggressive behavior would help them in their relationships with other
people.

Water Rooster
Year:
1933 & 1993
|
Water gives
the Rooster a character that is altogether more reasonable and compliant
than others born under this sign. Quieter, calmer and generally more
intellectual than most of the Roosters, Water Roosters still have the
analysis and they excel in the world of science and communications. They
have a seemingly constant supply of energy but they can allow themselves
to have an obsessive interest in detail, which can mean that they
dissipate this energy and lose track of the point. Water Rooster need to
make an effort to maintain their wide vista throughout life; otherwise
their punctilious attention to detail could narrow their field of
vision.

Wood Rooster
Year:
1945 & 2005
|
Kind and
considerate to friends and family and able to get along well with others
working as part of a team rather than needing to rule the roost, Wood
Roosters possess a strong social conscience that drives them to work
for good cause and the betterment of society. They will work with
boundless energy and enthusiasm, for any cause to which they have
committed themselves, expecting everyone else involved to so the
same. However, they can expect too much of others, not realizing
that not everyone has to much energy and they sometimes offend
other people by being critical or speaking too bluntly. Wood
Roosters often end up making too many promises and taking on more than
they can realistically handle.

Fire Rooster
Year: 1957 & 2017
|
The element of Fire brings
great flamboyance to this sign. Image is extremely important to the Fire
Rooster who spends a lot of time preening his or her fine feathers. With
their dynamic elan they are also prone to displays of high theatricals.
Nevertheless, these Roosters are brilliant organizers, have great
willpower and make natural leaders whom others are happy to follow and
respect. They should watch a tendency to bully others in order to
fulfill their wishes, though and need to learn to be a little more
diplomatic and tactful. However, a Fire Rooster can generally make a
superb leader or manager in any field in which he or she may choose to
exercise this Animal's considerable talents.

Earth Rooster
Year:
1909 & 1969
|
Careful, methodical, neat
and tidy, the Earth Rooster is super-efficient. Earth Roosters have
penetrating powers of thought and good financial and business sense.
They are never afraid to commit themselves or to take on responsibility
and these elemental Roosters will always be prepared to work hard and
expect others to so the same. They have the Rooster's interest in detail
and are particularly good at gathering and analyzing information. They
use these talents very efficiently and have the power exacting standards
and also expect others to share them. This can make them less than
popular with colleagues or employees at work and they need to remind
themselves that there are other ways of inspiring people and encouraging
them to work hard and well if they want to be leaders of a happy and
cooperative team.

| The
Rooster Lover
Rooster emotions tend to be black and
white, so they either love or hate - with very little room for gray
areas. Theirs is a strong, forceful personality and although usually
candid and open in interactions with others, Roosters tend to keep their
emotions firmly under wraps and are reluctant to talk about their
innermost feelings. Discretion is definitely the better part of valor
for Roosters and partners can be sure that they would never disclose the
details of their intimate sexual exploits.
Roosters are not the easiest people to
live with. And yet, anyone who is prepared to look beyond their bossy,
abrasive exteriors will find someone who desperately wants to love and
be loved, who is anxious to please and is genuinely kind and generous.
For, though tough and uncompromising, a Rooster's heart is made of solid
gold.
It is their candor, a virtue prized by
Roosters that can actually damage their relationships, especially if
their partner tends towards a sensitive disposition. Never one for
mincing his or her words, the Rooster, male or female, can be highly
critical, tactlessly carping about a habit of taking the high moral
ground with a sanctimonious smugness that would drive all but the
meekest sain straight to the nearest divorce court. |
| The
Rooster Lover Partner
A solid and not
oversensitive person would make an ideal partner for the Rooster -
someone who can shout the Rooster down from time to time or who will be
unconcerned by the crowing and who will not mind the Rooster's strutting
but feel admiration for his or her firm attitudes. |

| The
Rooster at Health
Involvement in sports and a fondness
for the outdoors keep Rooster types fit; besides, Rooster are fighters
and refuse to let ill-health get the better of them. If they do succumb,
their excellent recuperative powers soon have them brimming with
vitality again. It is more in the psychological realm that Roosters are
likely to suffer, as they can be prone to dramatic mood swings and are
always driven by exacting standards. So it is stress and tendency to
over-indulge that Roosters need to watch. |
| The
Rooster at Home
Rooster folk tend to be
houseproud. With their remarkable organizational skill,, love of method
and attention to details, their homes are always neat and clean, with a
place for everything and everything in its place. Hygiene is also of
great importance to the Rooster and an abundance of cleaning agents
is a tell-tale sign of their Chinese Animal birthright. They have
a habit of forever sorting and rearranging, cleaning out drawers and
moving furniture around and this either confuses their long-suffering
families or drives them completely around the bend. Shades of apricot
and peach are the colors associated with the Rooster sign and these
blend well with their preference for classical furniture and traditional
decor. |
|
The
Rooster at Work
more career-oriented
than most other Animals, Roosters are very hard-working, status-conscious
and driven by ambition. Their qualities suit them to a wide variety of
occupations. They will stick at whatever tasks they undertake until they
have reached their desired goal. Roosters
seem to have great talent in the financial field, yet comes to managing
their own money, they tend to fall into one of two categories: either
they belong to the band of big-hearted Roosters who love spending money
and showering their friends with gifts, or they put it all in the bank
and gleefully watch it grow. |
