SHEEP (GOAT)

Within Chinese culture, the sheep is the symbol of modest devotion to family, always depicted kneeling respectfully to either give or receive nourishment. So if you are born within the house if the Sheep then you will be highly valued by your family for your quiet commitment to them all.

Sheep-people are regarded as amongst the luckiest of all. It is thought that those born within the protection of the Sheep will never experience hunger. Such people were those whom the Chinese assigned to take charge of farming during times of drought and famine, for they were thought to have a lucky effect on the cultivation of the soil. And those born in a year of the Sheep are usually lucky with money.

Not so with romantic love. Perhaps this is because those born under this sign are notoriously self-effacing. Then, too, those born with the Sheep as their life symbol can be far too inclined to take things slowly. If you're a Sheep, you'll not be one of those who marry in haste and repent at leisure.

Sheep-people are the good samaritans of the Chinese zodiac. They are gentle mannered and on the shy side. Being very sincere they are easily taken by a sob story. Sheep people are compassionate, understanding of others' faults, and quick to forgive.

Sheep-people like to set their own hours and will not tolerate too much discipline. They are also very offended if they are criticized. They cannot work well under pressure and must be allowed to do things at their own speed. Sheep need somebody to discipline them, though, in order to utilize their talents. They usually find someone to look after and care for them.

Good fortune smiles upon Sheep-people. They benefit from wills and inheritances. Even in the roughest of times, the Sheep always acquire the basic needs. Sheep get their own way without force or violence. They have that passive endurance that drives you mad. Eventually they wear you down with their pleas. You just can't break them!

Sheep never come right out and discuss what's bothering them. You pry it out of them bit by bit. When all else fails, yell at them, and bang things around. They should be impressed and might unfold all their secret woes; then, you can clear the air.

The Sheep are family people. They never forget anyone's birthday, and you had better not forget theirs! Sheep worry, too. They want others to cheer them up and tell them everything will be okay.

The prospect of having anything new or strange tends to frighten you: new faces, new places, the never-endng changes in our world. And you often approach anything different with trepidation, fearing the worst.

In fact, your big weakness may well be pessimism. Too often those born under the influence of the Sheep are inclined to look on the black side, worry about things which may never happen, see difficulties which simply do not exist.

If you're born with the Sheep as your personal emblem, then you need a partner who is optimistic and brave...who can cope with you when you get in one of your fearful 'down' moods! You are most likely to find one of those paragons in those born when Jupiter is in the mansion of the Pig, the Horse, or the Rabbit.

Rat next...
