a little about a lot

Daydreaming all afternoon sounds heavenly to the Goat. This creative, esoteric Sign needs plenty of time alone in which to feed its Muse. Goats are generally most comfortable in their own minds (which other, more linear-thinking Signs may have trouble deciphering). This Sign makes a great craftsperson or artisan, or perhaps a teacher of New Age studies -- any occupation that allows its mind the full range of freedom. Goats tend not to be very well-organized, precluding many more dry business endeavors. In fact, Goats tend not to be very materialistic in general, finding plenty of riches in their own imagination. However, especially when in love, the Goat can be quite a lavish gift-giver.

Perhaps it's that artistic temperament that so often causes Goats to feel insecure, but the result is that these high-strung creatures need to feel loved and admired lest they start worrying incessantly. For this reason, Goats tend to have a hard time with romance; anyone who couples up with a Goat must know, this Sign has a sensitive streak a mile wide and can be subject to bouts of anxiety over seemingly inconsequential things. Goats need plenty of love, support and open reassurance from their lovers. If a relationship is marked by conflict, the Goat will often pull away -- either physically or simply by retreating into the safe haven of its imagination.

If the romance is going well, however, Goats won't hesitate to tell their partner what they need -- and they can be quite insistent about it! This Sign will definitely return the favor, however; the Goat has a luxurious side that delights in indulging a lover's every wish. Appearances are also important to the Goat, which may explain why these folks can spend hours primping and posing.

Goats would be well-served by learning to relax and let others run the show from time to time. Once they can be certain that their friends and lovers won't be gone when the Goat returns from its daydreams, life will be a field of daisies.

YOUR ELEMENT - FIRE

Those of you born on April 22, 1967, you fall under the influence of the Chinese element of Fire and burn through life with your fierce charm, your impulsive enthusiasm and your restless emotions. A natural leader, you inspire with your decisive action and dramatic expression; people can't help but be magnetically drawn to you. Where will you lead your followers? Likely into an exciting adventure of some sort. You're instinctual, but your mind sparks with new ideas and clever solutions.

In love, you're highly-charged -- even combustible at times! Hot tamales to the core, these dynamic individuals can see straight to the heart of an issue and make it work for them. You may seem single-minded, but you just refuse to be swayed from a cause they believe to be important.

GOAT'S LOVE FORECAST IN YEAR OF THE ROOSTER

First quarter
The lunar climate during January will irresistibly incline you to flit around, and you'll hardly want to settle down. If you are already in a couple, your mate will not show understanding and will protest. Try to solve the conflict if you can't avoid it. Single folks, be prepared for an upheaval in your sentimental lives. A decisive encounter must take place by mid-February. You can then thank the stars who are responsible for all this. Because of them, your heart will make delicious leaps!

Second quarter
If you live as a couple, the beginning of this period will in all likelihood incline you to redistribute the cards and begin a new game together. While it is salutary to question your love relationships from time to time, be careful not to make any drastic decisions concerning your future. In order that this renewal is beneficial, always hear out what your beloved one has to say before saying a word yourself. May and June could have a somewhat restricting influence on your love life. It will tend to intellectualize the most spontaneous outbursts. Single natives should be judicious with whom they choose to keep company.

Third quarter
The atmosphere of your love life will evolve into joyous freedom in August. Small trips will favor happy encounters. You'll meet again with old friends, you'll be charmed by the person next door or you'll become infatuated with someone at your vacation place. The planetary environment of August and September will be favorable to reasonable and peaceful love relationships that will mainly be centered on daily living, amorous security and domestic comfort. Sentiments will be reserved, modest and discreet, but will not lack solidity, intensity and fervor. Great attraction for other people born under the same sign as yours. For some natives, an encounter with a person of foreign origin may give rise to a love life of great quality, and marriage plans will be drawn up rapidly.

Fourth quarter
Your love affairs could be very dramatic, notably during November, for you'll often act impulsively. It's certain that your conjugal harmony will be affected and that heated discussions will render it a bit shaky. Beware not to go beyond the stage of simple disputes; have a calm and frank dialog. And, above all, don't let anybody meddle with your disagreements.

GOAT FORECAST FOR YEAR OF THE ROOSTER

Luck will smile upon the charming Goat. They will prosper in many sectors of activity. And as far as amorous conquests are concerned, they will be among the luckiest ones of the zodiac. Will all that make them happy? On one level, yes, but they will still have questions that need large answers. This year, they must look to their interior life for solutions. Their happiness will depend on them and them alone. In order to be happy, they must, right now, begin to learn wisdom. 'When one is young, one must apply oneself to philosophizing; and when one is old, one should not get tired of philosophizing. For it's never too early or too late to work for the health of the soul,' as Epicurus said.

FIRE GOAT OVERVIEW FOR YEAR OF THE ROOSTER

If last year was one of passion, the present year will instead be placed under the sign of reason. However, if the stars emphasize your intellect more, they will also compel you to bank on the long term, in your work as well as in your private life. And this won't do you any harm!
