Hi,

You've managed to ask a ton of questions in one. A Chinese chart is 20 pages long, and you can order one at a reasonable cost at www.firepig.com.

What i will do here is give you your basic chart info and tell you three important things about it.

You were born during the year of the Water Pig, month of the Fire Snake, day of the Fire Tiger and hour of the Wood Horse. Your strongest element is Fire and your weakest is/are Earth and Metal.

Looking at your animal signs, i'd have to say you are probably often misunderstood. Your year sign is the relatively gentle, easy-going Pig. Your other three signs are very strong and aggressive. Also, your Pig year sign is the exact opposite of your Snake month sign. You are open but secretive, superficial but in depth, classy but casual. People probably think you're unpredictable because they don't know which one of you will show up at any given moment.

Looking at your elements we see imbalance. You have a nice strength, Fire, but also two significant weaknesses, Earth and Metal. You are an action person, but with that lack of Earth and Metal, you are likely to be the type that's always starting things but not finishing many of them. You're not a fighter, although you don't run away from a fight either.

Looking at your life cycle, you are in the last of two weak chi (energy/life force) periods. The bad news is it's probably been rought through your school years. The good news is starting about age 35 there won't be any more weak ones. After age 30 you should give priority to enhancing your education.
