The Chinese Sign Dog in the CHINESE ASTROLOGY
Born in the year of the Dog

This animal is loved by everybody, and this is really no surprise: with attention and courage the dog protects all he was told to look after, and he wants to be the good friend of all human beings. You surely can consider yourself as lucky being born in the year of the dog. Honor, ethics, faith and trust have never been empty syllables for you, but the motto on your banner. You strongly dislike braggers and those who pretend to know better, because behind these attitudes you smell the foul scent of insecurity. You fight for fairness and equal rights, and no matter how hard the fight may be, you would never forget  your principles by playing foul tricks.

You have a rather uncomplicated personality. You don’t mind to admit mistakes you made or accept compromises, but you also demand this from others. Your friends can always trust you and rely on you. They especially value your talent to calm down hot discussions with your clear and cool attitude and your feet rooted deeply in reality. You tend to have things easy and you rather become active than holding long lectures. You may not be the talkative person, but you have a real talent to listen to others. You are modest and  take what you need, not more. You are satisfied with what you have and don’t care about that which you don’t have, like many other people do. You don’t mind to work hard, and relaxing in your cozy home is your best-loved reward. Maybe for this reason you will not climb the ladder of success in the company you work with and will not receive the proper attention for your contributions.

Knowing how people are generally saves you from becoming disappointed. But when you criticise somebody, that person should listen well, because you definitely know what you have to tell him. You can be angry sometimes, but you don’t bear grudges, because you believe in the good side in everyone and always give others the second chance. Friendship is highly valued in your life. You don’t make friends easily though, and it can take a while until you really trust someone.

You have a good instinct and a perfect sense of orientation, and you will always find your way home safely even when you may not know the way at night. You love sports, action and traveling, and finding out new things in a country you’ve never been to is something you really enjoy. In your teenage years you surprised your environment by showing off as the „young and wild one“, but you are more harmless than you seem to be.

Love and partnership are serious issues for you, and your partner will also be your best friend. When others criticize your partner, you defend him or her bravely, because you have learned to accept the shadow side of your partner. You love to be the great defender and see yourself in the role of the brave knight who pushes all evil out of your relationship’s way. Although you own a honest character you will not hurt your partner with ugly thruths.

You may have been the chivalrous fighter for the weaker kids on your schoolyard. You have surely protected your brothers and sisters. You have learned early to distinguish between right and wrong, and nobody ever bought you for a piece of chocolate. You have been an open, active and sensible child.
