Hi Denise,

You were born during the year of the Metal Rat, month of the Water Sheep, day of the Earth Sheep and month of the Fire Rabbit.

Here is what Lori Reid, one of my favorite experts, says about the Rat and career:

"The Chinese say that, as an adviser, the Rat should always be listened to. It is well recognized that with their quick intelligence and powers of observation, Rat people possess vision and foresight. They can see problems clearly, and are always able to take a broad view. They can home in on the issues in question and make objective and dispassionate judgments. The same skills combined with their sense of ambition also make them shrewd operators. Power, money, position, and prestige are all important to the Rat, and Rat people have a sixth sense that alerts them to opportunities coming their way and which -- if they listen to it -- will warn them of potential problems in an business venture. The Rat makes a better boss than an underling and, although industrious, can be ground down by routine. Flexible hours and variety at work suit the Rat best."

You may, however, be a "bad" Rat in that you have two, Sheep signs. I say bad in the sense that you might be more comfortable in a Sheep environment since you have two Sheep signs, even though Rat is your predominant/year sign. So, here is what Lori says about the Sheep:

"Sheep people like being part of a group, and have no interest in seeking power and position. If they have to don the mantle of authority they will, and moreover, they will carry out their responsibilities with intelligence and tact. But they are not really comfortable in the position of leader and would not normally seek a high status job out of choice. Sheep folk are much happier taking a supporting role."

Taking these together, and accounting for the fact you have a lot of Earth in your chart, I could see you being suited to a career in plans and programs, human resources, or public administration. Earth, by the way, indicates practicality and a higher than average willingness and ability to deal with more routine, repetitive type work.
