Rooster Years
During Rooster years, career decisions take top priority. The Rooster's aggressiveness turns to national pride and foreign occupiers should beware. (Japan sure learned this in 1945!)

Roosters in Rooster Years
Their own year will bring Roosters excellence in everything except perhaps romance. Career and business activities make great progress, although ongoing projects fare better than new ones. Family and home life remains stable.

Rooster Personality
Not surprisingly, Roosters often tend to be cocky, even though the animal represents a feminine side. This aggressiveness, coupled with a strong attention for details, makes Roosters shrewd business persons. However, care must be taken not to overextend oneself by taking on too many projects.

Rooster Symbolism
Roosters represent aggressive behavior and alertness. In contrast to the West, the East associates roosters with the evening.

Rooster People
Confucius, Verdi, Wagner, Katherine Hepburn

This Rooster seal carving is made from quality polished stone from China. Unlike less superior stone carvings where the entire surface is spray-painted, this one is genuinely pure stone material throughout. The Rooster figure is skillfully hand-carved with superior workmanship, with clear and detailed definition. Measures 2cm x 2cm x 7.5cm. This Rooster seal is packaged in a nice Chinese decorated box and comes with a dish of special red ink.
