DRAGON (Born in 1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000)

About their personality:
Dragon people are balls of fire! They are full of vitality and love of life. Always on the run, they drag their faithful band of admirers behind them. Dragons are egotistical, eccentric, demanding, and giving.

They are proud, direct, and loaded with high ideals which they always try to live up to. Having a zeal for life, they want to live it on a grand scale. They have the potential for accomplishing many great things as long as they don't get too far ahead of themselves. Dragons are always making the news.

It is next to impossible to win an argument with Dragon. They intimidate anyone who challenges them. Once you arouse their anger, they keep after you for a very long time. Dragons are extremely loyal to friends and family. When really needed they always come to the rescue. In spite of being overly emotional, a Dragon is not sentimental or even romantic. They will just take it for granted that everyone loves them. Although they are stubborn and irrational, they are not petty or begrudging with their favors. It is hard for them to hide their feelings. They don't even try.

Not being secretive themselves, they can't be expected to keep a confidence for long; but Dragons speak from the heart and are always sincere. Being creatures of action, they motivate others, too. Dragons need purpose in their lives, causes to fight for, and goals to reach.

Dragons consider themselves very strong. They will often bite off more than they can chew. When this happens, they are too proud to ask for help and exhaust themselves. Dragons can do many things well. They may be artists, politicians, doctors, or ministers. When Dragons choose the right profession, they will be successful and devoted.

In romance, Dragons are seldom the losers and are usually the ones breaking hearts. Dragons don't marry too young, and many are content and happier living alone. Dragons will always have more than their share of friends and admirers to keep them company.

Chinese Zodiac Compatibility - Dragon

People born in the year of the dragon will have the most tacit understanding with people born in the year of the monkey. A "dragon" and a "mouse" can also form a reliable alliance, for the cunning mouse and strong dragon can achieve a great cause together. A "dragon" can have a happy marriage with a "snake," for the snake with his/her wisdom will prevent the dragon from acting wildly in defiance of the law or public opinion.

People born in the year of the tiger, rooster, horse, sheep, rabbit and pig will try their best to keep company with him for they like his graceful bearing and strength. People born in the year of the dragon can also get along well with others born in the same animal year. However, the relationship between the "dragon" and an "ox" will be tense for they are both quite dignified. The "dog" may give him a headache because he would feel too closely guarded by the "dog," and the "dog" would also be deterred by his power.
