Question
Hi Bill

I am interested to see what a chinese astrology chart would tell me about myself my fiance.

My date of birth is January 14 1979 in vermont and he is September 6 1980 in russia.

I think I am an Earth Sheep but could you provide any insight into this for me please?

Answer
Hi Sheryl,

You were born during the year of the Earth Horse, month of the Wood Ox, and day of the Metal Snake.

He was born during the year of Metal Monkey, month of the Wood Monkey and day of the Water Horse.

From a Chinese astrology perspective, this match has a 50% favorable compatibility rating which is so-so. There is a 50-50 chance of this match lasting and bringing you the happiness you seek. To be honest you can do a lot better.

There are two reasons I would not recommend this match. First, he has two Monkey signs, and you don't have any signs from the Rat-Dragon-Monkey compatibility group. You're probably not going to be able to satisfy this part of his personality. Second, he has no Earth in his chart. Unless he  has some in his hour sign (which we don't know), his elements are unbalanced. This lack indicates a lack of practicality and reliability, very important qualities.

By the way, your month sign is Ox, and the Ox lady is the one most likely to choose the wrong guy. You should always get an outside opinion from someone you trust and who is wise before you commit yourself to a relationship.

If you would like to learn more about your signs, I highly recommend Theodora Lau's The Handbook of Chinese Horoscopes. Also, please visit my site, www.firepig.com. If you would like a more detailed analysis, you can order one at the site for a modest cost.

Thank u for your question.
