They are both romantic and passionate signs and attach much importance to their home. They each strive to make their home comfortable, and with their strong family ties, it is likely to be full of family heirlooms, mementos of childhood and other items of nostalgia.
However, problems may arise. The Rat is thrifty and careful with his money, while the Dog, in the Rat’s eyes, is over-generous. The Rat can be restless and enjoys change and challenges, while the Dog appreciates consistency and careful planning.
If they can reconcile their differences then the Rat and Dog can enjoy a content and fulfilling relationship.

Rat and Pig
General Relations
The Rat and Pig have many interests in common and often become close and loyal friends. They are both outgoing, like socializing and have a fondness for the good things in life. They enjoy each other’s company and often share similar viewpoints. General relations between these two signs are often excellent.
As colleagues or business partners, they can enjoy much success. Both work hard and diligently and both have entrepreneurial flair. The Pig delights in the Rat’s skill in seeking out opportunities and developing ideas, while the Rat appreciates the Pig’s commercial acumen and ability to make money. Providing the Rat does not try to take advantage of the Pig’s trusting nature, they make a successful and formidable partnership.
In Love and Marriage
There is considerable attraction between the Rat and Pig and, in love and marriage, they can find happiness. Both are passionate and sensual signs and there is a strong physical attraction between them.
The Rat and Pig are home-oriented signs and attach much importance to their home and family. They make caring and attentive parents and devote much time and energy into creating and maintaining their home; between them they make sure it is tastefully furnished. Their home may, however, quickly become full; with the Pig’s indulgence and the Rat’s acquisitive and hoarding nature, they could have more possessions than they know what to do with.
Between them the Rat and Pig have considerable earning ability; most Rat and Pig couples are financially secure and are able to enjoy a good standard of living.

Whether ploughing a field or pulling a cart, the ox is a strong and disciplined worker. The second of the Chinese signs is governed by equilibrium and tenacity and has a calm, quiet and orderly manner. While he may appear reserved, he is both resolute and tenacious.
The Ox sets about life in a cautious and methodical way. He plans his activities carefully and does not like change or anything too gimmicky or innovative. The Ox is a down-to-earth sort of person and while he may sometimes lack tact, at least those who come in contact with him know exactly where he stands.
The Ox is methodical, diligent and often a loner. He likes to conduct his activities in his own way and to his own exacting standards. The Ox also prefers to specialize and have set interests rather than engage in a wide variety of activities.
The lady Ox is a practical person. She is keenly aware of her responsibilities and is supportive to her partner and her children. She also takes much delight in maintaining her home and others often marvel at her capabilities.
The male Ox is quiet but confident in his manner. He may not be as outgoing as other signs, but he has a sharp mind and a steely resolve.
However, the Ox does have his weaknesses. He can be stubborn and intransigent and does not adapt well to change. He can be prejudiced, inflexible and intolerant, he also has an awesome temper, although fortunately it is only used on rare occasions.
Famous Oxen

Ox and Ox
General Relations
There is respect and admiration between two Oxen but not always close friendship. Oxen are resolute, ambitious and often loners and while one Ox may recognize the qualities and tenacity in another Ox, they often prefer to keep their distance. Each Ox cherishes his independence and each likes to have his own way.
Both are hard and tenacious workers and if united by a common goal their perseverance and determination is invariably rewarded. In a working relationship between two Oxen it might be best if there is a clear division of responsibilities, otherwise there may be a tussle for authority. However, their ambitious and strong-willed natures can make them a powerful force.
In Love and Marriage
Oxen like secure, stable and calm lifestyles. As they have many common interests – and a mutual dislike of change – they may find a certain contentment together. As a couple they will conduct their activities in an orderly and efficient manner and as neither have expensive tastes most Ox couples are materially well off. Both also have practical natures and an Ox couple take much delight in creating and maintaining their home.
Oxen are loyal and faithful and keenly aware of their responsibilities, and as a couple there will be a great deal of trust between them. If Oxen have children they make conscientious, caring – but also strict – parents.
However, problems will arise. Both are strong-willed and stubborn so compromise may be difficult. As Oxen tend to be set in their ways, the relationship may be devoid of excitement or sparkle.

Ox and Tiger
General Relations
The Ox and Tiger are two forceful and determined signs and their personalities and temperaments simply clash. Neither finds it easy to relate to the other and general relations between them are poor. The practical and down-to-earth Ox finds the Tiger restless and volatile, while the Tiger views the Ox as unadventurous and intractable.
The differences in personality are also evident when they work together. The Tiger, often bubbling with enthusiasm and new ideas, finds the cautious Ox far too much of a restraining and inhibiting influence, while the Ox considers the Tiger rash, reckless and impulsive. Both signs СКАЧАТЬ
