Rat & Ox
The Ox and the Rat appreciate each other's need
for independence and privacy, and while the
Ox is organizing daily affairs, the Rat may
be devising new schemes or looking for challenging
opportunities. Although the Rat is astute, the
Ox can also offer sensible advice and together
they make a determined partnership. There is
a natural mutual respect, and when the situation
demands, they can both be serious, perseverant
workers. There is, however, a side to the Rat
that is more passionate and gregarious and less
controlled than the discreet Ox; the Rat's sudden
lively reactions can sometimes catch the Ox
unawares, although these unexpected moments
usually come as a welcome surprise. |
