I am the self-proclaimed acquisitor

I am a link yet I function as a complete unit.

I aim at encompassing heights

And strike my target

Sure and steady

Life is one joyous journey for me

Each search must end with a new quest.

I am progress, exploration and insight.

I am the womb of activity.

 

 

I am the Rat.

How the Rat fares in the Year of the Cat (Rabbit) (1999)

A calm and quiet year. Still the Rat must be careful with money. There may be some misunderstandings within his family or at work, but he will make new contacts in business. New members will be added to his family.

And the following Year of the Dragon (2000)

A very good year. Excellent business and romantic prospects. The Rat will have a smooth time with financial gains or promotions. But while the Rat could be recognised for his achievements this year, he must also be on guard against newfound friends who tend to use him.
