I am the seasoned traveler Of the Labyrinth. The genius of alacrity, Wizard of the impossible. My brilliance is yet unmatched In its originality. My hearts filled with potent magic That could cast a hundred spells I am put together For mine own pleasure. I am the Monkey.
Of all the animals in the lunar cycle, the Monkey bears the closest resemblance to the Naked Ape himself, Man. It is therefore no wonder that it should be he who will inherit most of man's intelligence as well as his capacity for deceit.
The Monkey is the sign of the inventor, the improvisor, and the motivator in the Chinese zodiac; a charlatan capable of drawing everyone to him with his intimate guile and charm. Being the quick-witted genius of the cycle, he is clever, flexible and innovative. The monkey can solve intricate problems with ease and will be a very fast learner. He can master anything under the sign and usually has the aptitude for being a good linguist. A person born in this year will be successful at whatever he choses to do. No challenge will be too great for him.
