THE YEAR OF THE RAT...
People born in the year of the rat are noted for their
charm. However, they are fussy about small matters and have a tendency
to pinch pennies. When such people want something very much, they will
work hard for the thing desired. Because they are thrifty, they are
able to save a great deal of money. Unfortunately, they may lose what
they have saved by spending it on someone they love who does not love them.
Curiously enough, only through love does a person born in this year become
generous.
Although people born in this year can maintain an outward
show of control, they are easily angered. Their value lies in the fact
that they are able to control their discontent or anger. Small-minded
as these people are, they are quite honest and ambitious and have a
tremendous capacity for pursuing a course to its end. They love to
spend money on themselves, denying themselves nothing, but they don't lend.
They love to gossip, and because of this characteristic they are apt to have
short-term friends.
They will have good fortune in the first phase of their
life. But in the second phase they will lose everything they have at
one time through a mistakenly taken chance or a shattering love affair.
Yet in the later part of their life they will live well and comfortably.
A person born in the year of the rat would do well to marry
someone born in either the dragon, the monkey, or the ox year, for people of
these years are temperamentally suited to those of the rat year. The
next best choice would be one born in the year of the rat, tiger, snake, dog
or boar. The worst would be with one born in the horse year, and it
would be doubly disastrous for a rat-year man to marry a woman born in the
year of the "fire horse year", which comes every sixty years. A
popular superstition claims that a man marrying such a woman does not live
out his full span of life.
