So is my sister, and she hates being the year of the rat!!   :D  She always wished she had been a "cooler or cuter" animal.  ;D

Rats are among the most intelligent and social animals so she should be proud, just as I am.  :D

Oh, I was mistaken then.  My sister is year of Rabbit (1968), not rat.

She still doesn't like being a rabbit, for whatever reason.  :D

Quote from: Florestan on January 07, 2014, 04:55:30 AMI must confess that both zodiacs are quite accurate in describing my personal traits and general character. I've read quite a few and they all agreed on the essential points and were right.  :D So, yes, I believe there might be some truth in it, after all - but only at this general, psychological level.  ;D

I'll have to agree with this - scarily accurate even...

Apparently the Year of the Goat (me 1955) and the sign of Cancer share many of the same characteristics.

Down to the minutest details of my childhood personality in the case of the Chinese zodiac. Scarily indeed.  :D

I am a Sagittarius (December 13) born in the year of the Rat 1972.

I certainly don't believe in daily horoscopes, though. I never bother to read them and I think they're just rubbish.

1972 was the centenary year of Vaughan Williams's birth - a good time to be born I reckon.  :) He was Libra (October 12, 1872)
