Monkey Chinese Zodiac Sign: Traits, Love, Compatibility
Cleverness and invention.
Monkey
The Monkey is a quick mind, humor and invention. Curious and deft, you catch things on the fly and find a way out of any situation. Charming and restless, you let neither yourself nor anyone else get bored.
In love
In love you are playful and engaging, and you need things to stay interesting. Predictability cools you faster than a quarrel does.
In work
You are hard to replace where quick thinking, flexibility and an odd angle count: ideas, technology, many things at once. You outsmart routine.
Strengths and weak spots
What to keep in mind
The animal of the year is one stroke, the same way a sun sign is. It describes the cast of your character. It does not hand out fate and it does not replace the whole chart of the sky. If you were born in January or early February, check your sign against the date of Chinese New Year.
FAQ
Which years are Monkey years?
1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028. The circle repeats every twelve years. If you were born in January or early February, check your sign against the date of Chinese New Year.
Who is the Monkey compatible with?
The easiest match is inside its own trine: Rat and Dragon. The hardest is the opposite sign, which is Tiger. Still, one animal of the year is a rough measure, and full compatibility takes two charts of the sky.
Monkey is only the year you were born. The Moon, the ascendant and the planets are waiting in the full chart.
