Dr.Nikki's Zodiac:
Chinese Animals
The Monkey
Monkeys by their biological structure are
protection, sadness, even grief.  However, in the orient Monkey is
associated with fun, cleverness and swiftness.

Monkey people are blessed with a tremendous imagination and
ingenuity that when used together can figure out how to overcome
just about any obstacle.  Persuasive in their arguments, look for
Monkey year people on the debate team – they are the ones you
are some of our closest relatives in the animal
kingdom.  In the Eastern philosophy monkeys are
seen as animals of quick wit and sharp intellect.  
Quick to figure things out, or how to copy someone
else who has appeared to figure it out, monkeys are
clever beasts.  Monkeys display many of the same
emotions that man does.  Monkeys show fear,

you *don’t* want to have to face in open debate.  Agility of mind is extremely
important to Monkey year folk who pride themselves at being about to run
circles verbally around other people.  The Monkey person has probably thought
of four or five puns that are obvious to them, but may well wait to see what
someone else has to offer.   Open to new ideas and full of versatility people
born in the year of The Monkey are good communicators, willing to both receive
and transmit.  Monkey people are the types who can discharge the negative
energy in a difficult situation with a witty remark that has everyone chortling, no
matter how tense the situation.

Monkey people tend to get more energy in a receptive mode by watching than
by being cooped up.  With a room with a view the creative mind processes of
the Monkey personality are allowed free rein.  Monkey people are normally
hard working, but not averse to making a better deal for themselves.  If there’s
a way to cut the work effort in half and get the product to market in a faster
time, well, look to the intelligent Monkey on your staff to help with ideas.  Some
career fields that Monkeys excel in are as writers, doctors, film directors,
market traders, financiers, buyers and air traffic controllers.  Each has its own
requirements that keep Monkeys quick mind active and alert.

If you’re looking to impress a Monkey friend, try a joke book for them to read.  
You’ll be telling them you appreciate their wit while giving them more ammunition
for their rapid-fire repartee at the next social gathering.  Social by nature
Monkeys normally hate solitude, so if you are in a relationship with a Monkey,
make sure to give of your time!  The Monkey personality would appreciate a
good game of poker among friends, an evening dancing, or gathering with
friends to make music.  If you are totally stumped for what to get your Monkey
friend but you want to get their attention, the gems and stones that will definitely
make him or her take notice are aquamarine, agate, topaz and quartz crystal.
