Love, Disaster, and Compatbility for the Rooster in Chinese Astrology

In Chinese Astrology, the Rooster is the tenth animal sign in the Chinese Zodiac out of twelve. The twelve animal signs in the Chinese Zodiac are the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. Each one of these signs has characteristics are innate to them.

For the Rooster in Chinese Astrology, they are known to be fashionable dressers and like to get things done right. Roosters can be flamboyant and like to flaunt what they got. In a professional setting, Roosters tend to be quite good managers as they dutifully tend to their tasks and underlings. Roosters are confident and can be to a fault and often fall victim to hubris. However, if one is being managed by a Rooster, they may find the Rooster to be confrontational and incessantly pecking at them to improve. The one trick these employees can do is to flatter the Rooster as they can easily be duped with flattery.

So what happens if one is not working with a Rooster but is actually in a romantic relationship with a Rooster? Of course, there are certain personalities and Chinese Zodiac signs that pair better with the Rooster and others that are short of disaster.

To illustrate, the Rooster and the Rat is a disastrous match according to Chinese Astrology. This relationship will be contentious and fraught with stress from the beginning. In fact, both signs have little patience and tolerance for the other person. Therefore Roosters and Rats should try to avoid each other as much as possible.

On the flip side, the Rooster and the Ox is a phenomenal match. The Ox is stable, reliable, and more patient which mixes well with the Rooster's tendency towards the flamboyant. So the Ox grounds the Rooster while the Rooster adds excitement to the solid Ox. At the end of the day, both understand each other and make a great team.
