Personality
Occupying the 4th position in the Chinese Zodiac, the Rabbit symbolizes such character traits as creativity, compassion, and sensitivity. Rabbits are friendly, outgoing and prefer the company of others. They also prefer to avoid conflict. In confrontational situations, Rabbits approach calmly and with consideration for the other party. Rabbits believe strongly in friends and family and lacking such bonds can lead to emotional issues.
I'd say this is true. I do like to be alone at times, but I'd feel totally disconnected my without family and friendly ties.
Their serene nature keeps Rabbits from becoming visibly upset. Because they’re serene animals, Rabbits are easily taken advantage of. Their sensitive nature makes them shy away from aggressive or competitive situations. They’re overall conservative and not interested in taking risks.
The "shying away from competitive situations" is definitely true. I don't like competition -- never have. I'd like to think that I'm not easily taken advantage of, though.
Classy, sophisticated, expressive, well-mannered and stylish, those born under the Sign of the Rabbit enjoy leaning about cultural issues and learning about people from other countries. Rabbits are most comfortable being home, and their homes are always neat and organized. Home is also where Rabbits prefer to entertain. Rabbits are conservative in their decorating tastes.
I'd *like* to be neat and organized, and I think I am by nature, but between kids and being tired most of the time, I don't get to put it into practice as much as I'd like.
Rabbits should work at building more self-confidence and self-worth so they can feel more secure. The desire for remaining in safe, comfortable environments keeps Rabbits from taking risks which sometimes causes them to miss out on good opportunities.
Yeah, I definitely need to work on the self-worth issue. :sigh:
Health
Even though Rabbits don’t usually get visibly upset or stressed, they do tend to keep these feelings inside. When they don’t express these feelings, such feeling can cause Rabbits to become ill. Rabbits could benefit from more everyday activity which would reduce their stress levels and better their health.
Does walking to and from the bus stop count as "everyday activity?" Since I'm 4617 months pregnant and at the point where BREATHING hurts, I'm going to say yes. Yes, it does.
Relationships
Rabbits are very sexual, but tend to give more of themselves than they should. This can lead to unrealistic expectations and unhealthy situations. Rabbits need partners who won’t take advantage of their giving nature. Such pairings will be strong.
True. I've always been a pretty sexual/sensual person, much to the delight of my husband. I'd have to admit though, I think I'm more of the taker than a giver lately, especially given my physiology. More's the pity, really.
Career
Rabbits are articulate and good communicators which is why friends and acquaintances seek out their advice. It’s also why Rabbits make excellent diplomats and politicians. Other good careers for Rabbits include: writer, publisher, actor, fashion designer, therapist, doctor, administrator, public relations, and teacher.
:nods: Writer, therapist and teacher have all been careers that I've mulled over at some point or another. People do tend to ask for my advice on things...I just hope I'm giving out valid opinions.
Rabbit Element
Wood Rabbits – Years 1915 and 1975
Wood Rabbits occupy their time doing for others; always feeling the need to make others content. This generosity is easy for others to take advantage of and sometimes Wood Rabbits don’t even realize is happening.
Zomg. This is so me.
