Chinese Astrology: The Fire Dog.  

Don’t count on the Fire Dog to sit patiently mute and handsome on your family’s hearth. Fire Dogs are enthusiastic. Their native ebullience and ingenuousness lend an attractive, childlike quality to a high-spirited personality and make us like and trust them instantly. Exuberance is the key word here. Because this person is so sincere, earnest even, we cannot help but want to listen. Fire Dog logic is frank, innocent and unsophisticated. The Fire Dog is straightforward and he is feisty, but his opinions are often naïve and beside the point. His best virtuous arguments are sometimes adorably full of holes. Fire Dogs can become solitary crusaders for righteous causes. Because their interlocutors are usually more cynical and resigned to the dangers and intricacies of the real world, Fire Dogs may have difficulty attracting disciples. Nevertheless, they persevere. In fact, their castles in the air are what get them out of bed in the morning. Every day, they hope and plan for a better world. The Fire Dog is a courageous idealist who will charge forth into the fray and fight hard for what he believes in. We are lucky to have them among us.
