Roosters are organised, excellent time keepers and hard workers. They are faithful as friends, and very strongly family oriented. Despite this they can be somewhat headstrong, and not a little arrogant in giving advice, particularly of the sort that is not asked for! Although outwardly showy, at heart the rooster is somewhat insecure, by nature conservative and old fashioned. The Chinese believe there are two types of rooster characters. The first is the sunrise/sunset rooster. Born during the sunset or sunrise hours, these are extrovert roosters who live for the moment. Money is seen as functional, its function being for spending - and they will spend with abandon. They are no strangers to overdrafts. The other group, those born outside of the sunrise/sunset ours, are the opposite. Very tight-fisted, they will go to the supermarket just before closing to find the items that have been reduced in price. They save money with great determination, only to squander it in an unguarded moment. Of all the signs they are the most outspoken and blunt. . Roosters enjoy keeping records and are forever writing notes on bits of paper which are then filed and put away. They also tend to build castles in the air, which leads to another prominent feature of their personality; to promise more than they can deliver. A little short of initiative at times, once Roosters find a task that fits their rigid temperament nothing will stand in a Roosters way. Although blunt, the roosters honesty makes for stable relationships. Their tendency to point out faults in other sometimes loses them friends, especially as they themselves do not take criticism easily.

Roosters do well in Ox Year and their hard work will be recognised and rewarded. However don’t be too cocky as others might resent your success in these tough times and you might not get the co-operation you want from others. You will need to be cautious of scandal and malicious gossip so be sure your actions and intentions are honourable. Stay practical and don’t be overconfident as this can bring you undone. On the romantic side of life this is an excellent year for you, and financially you will do better than most. This is an excellent year for Rooster to bring a new baby into the family and their child should have a fortunate life. The lucky gemstone for Roosters is Citrine “the stone of success” and is associated with abundance, prosperity, success and true wisdom.
