Resolute, bright and crafty, he tends to be self-assured and independent. He delights in checking out facts and sources just to satisfy his own curiousity and spends endless hour contrasting and comparing statistics and details that he collects. Smart and well-informed, he does his homework before making major purchases and will insist upon getting the best deal in town.
He is a veritable storehouse for knowledgeable and triva and his appealing sense of humour and quick wit are indispensable to anyone. On the negative side, he cannot resist the urge to tip the scales in his own favour now and then. He may also be quick to snap up a good offer or take advantage of any brief moment of weakness that he notices in others. Don't expect him to feel remorse for his actions. It is his nature.
When this person is thwarted or restricted, he can be rebellious and opinionated. When he is out to prove that he is right about something, he will leave no stone unturned, and he does not care how long it takes to make his opponent eat his words. Clever and brimming over with nervous and excitable energy, he likes to grab holds of things and will not let go until he is satisfied. This person is most likely to patent his inventions and copyright his work before exhibiting it to the public. He has got good foresight and can view the whole picture with its long-term overall impact.
Instead of following consensus and doing things traditionally, he tends to question and debate, He likes to experiment and test things from all angles. Never want to accept things at face value, this would be his greatest defeat. Often, he is over anxious, suspicious and may jump the gun when he is impatient. Thereby making imprudent choices. Complicated and mischievous, he could be spiteful and destructive when his ego is hurt.
The monkey personalitiy is gifted with good, clear judgement and a charming disposition,especially when he is after somrthing. He instinctively knows the value developing good relationships and will try to get on the good side of people who can help him. Using honey istead of vinegar, he will smile sweetly and be most amicable when he wants to sell his ideas and pet projects.
There is also that streak of vengefulness in the nature that gives him sadistic glee in turning the tables on his enemies. He is not likely to let a big injury go without putting up a good fight, and if he loses, one can be sure he will have the audacity to demand a rematch at his own convenience. Concede Defeat? “UNTHINKABLE” says the monkey.
In spite of his outgoing, fascinating and sophisticated personalitiy, he is secretive and keeps his own motives to himself. His suspiousions usually hold water, but he will always be careful not to accuse anyone openly until he has the whole proof. He will only let his guard down and relax with people he can trust implicitly. His best partners are the rat and the dragon. He will see the rat as the initiator and competent performer that he is and and these two can become an unbeatable team. The rat will gravitate towards the intelligent and success-orientated monkey person. The monkey would also be very happy with the exciting and daring dragon people.
The ox, snake and rooster are able to work well with the monkey to a fair degree, provided they are not turned off by his occsional high-handedness and argumentative ways.
The rabbit, sheep and the boar may often need the superior wits of the monkey, but these peaceful and sensitive types may not welcome his controversial ideas and unconventional solutions.
The tiger, horse and the dog may be where the monkey will encounter considerable resistance. These outspoken protector will not be intimidated easily and will openly question the monkey motives and intentions or check his credit rating. Naturely the monkey will be outraged and offended that they do not appreciate his wonderful and helpful suggestions.
