Character
You think fast and learn faster than most. Not bound to the prescribed method, you solve from another angle and move easily across fields. Dull repetition is what you cannot stand.
Strengths
Quick thinking, learning, problem solving. You make a method when there appears to be none.
What to Watch
Scattered interest can stop you going deep in any one thing. Cleverness sometimes reads as lightness.
Compatibility
Strong with Rat and Dragon, harmonious with Snake. Friction with Tiger, the opposing branch.
In a relationship
The conversation stays interesting. Attention shifts easily, so saying out loud that you intend to continue is what matters.
Work and money
Adaptable, and strongest where things are stuck. Add the experience of sticking with one thing and the cleverness becomes competence.
Among people
You keep the room moving. Building one achievement over a long stretch is what stops you being taken lightly.
Advice
Dig at one thing for three years. What you lack is not talent but accumulation.
