Monkey Chinese Zodiac Sign - Characteristics, Personality, Meanings and Compatibility

Characteristics and personality of the Monkey
Monkey is a wily trickster, and is often hilarious. Monkeys are deceitful, but companionable and give the impression that they can get along with all the other animals. It is, however, only one of their tactics, since behind their appearance they hide only their own financial goals. They cunningly acquire services and advantages which they don’t seem to ever need and take them for granted. They are, however, full of love and even willing to always help. They hide their poor opinion of others behind kindness and gentleness.

Monkeys are smart and of intellectual nature. They like to read everything, and read a lot. They are cultivated, even learned. Monkeys have an excellent feel for details and everything they see, hear and live through. They are extremely inventive and original. They can easily solve toughest life situations and problems. Monkeys have a sharp mind and can easily charm their fellow citizens, even the strong, tough, brilliant and durable Dragon. They could become the most ideal secretary to their boss. Monkeys can even resist the attractiveness of Tiger, whom they ultimately make fun off.

Monkeys are not ashamed to be dishonest or lie, if it seems to be good for their own gains. They are disingenuous, if they know it can get them out of danger. However, whatever they do, no one can get angry with them. Monkeys are able to charm everyone around them.

In Love, Monkeys are rarely lucky. They will fall in love quickly, but just as quickly discard beloved beings and find a new love. Although they are very passionate, they cool down very quickly, an act which can eventually save they from harm.
