..People born under the Chinese sign of the Rat are lucky! Rats are intelligent and great with people, surrounding themselves with many friends. The Rats natural charisma ensures they are the centre of attention at social gatherings. They keep their friends too as they are very loyal.Rat people enjoy the good things in life, fine clothes, wines and gourmet food. However, they can have a mean streak, they dont waste money and have an eye for bargains. They are astute in financial matters and will have money tucked away for emergencies.People born under this sign are fortunate. They are talented, ambitious and often successful in business. However, they need to avoid taking on too much at one time as they can run out of energy before completing a project. Rats can keep secrets as long as they are their own. They do have a tendency to gossip and can readily give away other peoples secrets. But Rats are so charismatic that nobody is angry with them for long.There are twelve Chinese year signs in the Chinese Zodiac. Unlike in our western astrology, in Chinese astrology each sign lasts for a year. Legend has it that as Buddha was about to depart the earth he summoned all the animals to say goodbye. Only twelve turned up so, to show his appreciation of their loyalty, he vowed that from then on each year would bear the name of one of the animals. Chinese astrology is based on the Lunar Calendar. This means the Chinese New Year does not fall on the same day each year and can vary by as much as 3 weeks. So for babies born in late January/early February it is necessary to consult the charts to determine the correct sign.Chinese Years:February 9, 2005 - January 28, 2006: RoosterJanuary 22, 2004 - February 8, 2005: MonkeyFebruary 1, 2003 - January 21, 2004: GoatFebruary 12, 2002 - January 31, 2003: HorseJanuary 24, 2001 - February 11, 2002: SnakeFebruary 5, 2000 - January 23, 2001: DragonFebruary 6, 1999 - February 4, 2000: RabbitJanuary 28, 1998 - February 5, 1999: TigerFebruary 8, 1997 - January 27, 1998: OxFebruary 19,1996 - February 7, 1997: RatJanuary 31, 1995 - February 18, 1996: PigFebruary 10, 1994 - January 30, 1995: DogJanuary 23, 1993 - February 9, 1994: RoosterFebruary 4, 1992 - January 22, 1993: MonkeyFebruary 15, 1991 - February 3,1992: GoatJanuary 27, 1990 - February 14, 1991: HorseFebruary 6, 1989 - January 26, 1990: SnakeFebruary 17, 1988 - February 5, 1989: DragonJanuary 29, 1987 - February 16, 1988: RabbitFebruary 9, 1986 - January 28, 1987: TigerFebruary 20, 1985 - February 8, 1986: OxFebruary 2, 1984 - February 19,1985: RatFebruary 13, 1983 - February 1, 1984: PigFebruary 25, 1982 - February 12, 1983: DogFebruary 5, 1981 - January 24, 1982: RoosterFebruary 16, 1980 - February 4, 1981: MonkeyJanuary 28, 1979 - February 15, 1980: GoatFebruary 7, 1978 - January 27, 1979: HorseFebruary 18, 1977 - February 6, 1978: SnakeJanuary 31, 1976 - February 17, 1977: DragonFebruary 11, 1975 - January 30, 1976: RabbitJanuary 23, 1974 - February 10, 1975: TigerFebruary 3, 1973 - January 22, 1974: OxFebruary 15, 1972 - February 2, 1973: RatJanuary 27, 1971 - February 14, 1972: PigFebruary 6, 1970 - January 26, 1971: DogFebruary 17, 1969 - February 5, 1970: RoosterJanuary 30, 1968 - February 16, 1969: MonkeyFebruary 9, 1967 - January 29, 1968: GoatJanuary 21, 1966 - February 8, 1967: HorseFebruary 2, 1965 - January 20, 1966: Snake
