Do you relate to the traits of the Western sign that is the counterpart of your Chinese sign? Do you usually get along with people of that sign and feel an affinity towards them?This might work better with your Inner Companion sign - which is supposed to be similar to the Western Ascendant. You can find yours here: http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=67103 & This is an older thread I found about Inner Companions: http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum33/HTML/000018.html

The Horse's equivalent counterpart would be Gemini. The Sheep's equivalent counterpart would be Cancer. The Monkey's equivalent counterpart would be Leo. The Rooster's equivalent counterpart would be Virgo. The Dog's equivalent counterpart would be Libra. The Pig's equivalent counterpart would be Scorpio.

Monkey=leo.Idk don't but my day sign is the Fire horse so it goes back to gemini again lol. but I relate more to my day sign than year lol quote: Thank goodness for open spaces, because the Horse needs plenty of room to roam! Energetic, good with money and very fond of travel, Horses are the nomads of the Chinese Zodiac, roaming from one place or project to the next. All of this Sign's incessant activity and searching may be to satisfy a deep-rooted desire to fit in. Paradoxically, Horses feel a simultaneous yearning for independence and freedom. Horses crave love and intimacy, which is a double-edged sword since it often leads them to feel trapped. Love connections tend to come easily to Horses, since they exude the kind of raw sex appeal that is a magnet to others. This Sign tends to come on very strong in the beginning of the relationship, having an almost innate sense of romance and seduction. Horses are seducers in general; check out any A-list party and you're bound to find the Horse in attendance. This Sign possesses a sharp wit and a scintillating presence; it really knows how to work a crowd.An impatient streak can lead Horses to be less than sensitive to others' needs. These colts would rather take a situation firmly in hand as opposed to waiting for others to weigh in or come to terms with it. The lone wolf inside the Horse can at times push others away, but this also makes this Sign stronger and is a key to its success. Horses are self-reliant and, though they might lose interest fast in a tedious, nine-to-five day job, are willing to do the work necessary to get ahead. Horses tend not to look much at the big picture; instead they just follow their whims, which can result in a trail of prematurely ended relationships, jobs, projects and so on. This Sign really knows how to motivate others, though, and get a lot accomplished. Once they find some peace within themselves, they can curb their wandering tendencies and learn to appreciate what's in their own backyard.

My Four Chinese Astrology Pillars:Year - Wood Pig Month - Wood Roster Day - Metal Pig Hour - Metal Tiger Unique Element - Mountain-Top Fire Well, I have a Scorpio Mars/Pluto with Scorpio on the IC, so Scorpio is quite integrated in my personality, therefore I cannot say.

Check and see if this one gives you a different element for your Rooster Year. http://www.fengshuithatworks.co.uk/horoscope.html IP: Logged |

Oh. Hmm, maybe the one that said Metal Rooster was incorrect. I am trying to remember what was that other thing 12muddy was saying about an extra element. Like I was Mountain Fire or something. Do you remember the name of that thread? I know RunAroundScreaming created it. Maybe your Year was clarified on that thread and we forgot we clarified it? IP: Logged |

For me, my Month is Rooster and Sun is Virgo. Year is Pig, Mars/Pluto is Scorpio. Day is Pig, so same applies. And Hour is Tiger, so Aquarius Descendant. I got the Aquarius Ascendant i always wanted! Well, sorta, lol. Because the Hour Chinese sign is the Ascendant equivalent. IP: Logged |

Hour - Dragon/Metal (I took into account daylight savings though) Day - Horse/Metal Month - Rooster/Water Year - Dragon/WoodI love being a dragon, I think it's more "me" than my Western Virgo sun sign. This result probably also explains my affinity for dragons, horses and birds. lol IP: Logged |

This is the link from the other thread: http://www.fengshui-village.com/en/bazi.php Now I understand why, John, there are two sets of elements and the other site noted one set and I noted the other. IP: Logged |

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one. I have that link in my favorites, but I forgot to click when I was looking at the other two. Was that the one that gave you a Metal Rooster Year? IP: Logged |

Yeah, as you were probably reading what the natural elements the signs were, instead of your elements. For Ex: Roster is Metal Pig is Water Monkey is Metal Etc. IP: Logged |

Yes, the Metal is the Rooster's natural element, but your element is Earth Rooster. IP: Logged |

Yeah, mine says Snake is Fire, but Dragon is Wood. I think a lot of people on websites are confused about this. It's weird. IP: Logged |

I can see why Dragon would be fire or earth but why wood? Isn't the dragon supposed to rest in a fire chamber underground? What does that have to do with wood? Is it because of spring?IP: Logged |
