		I am the self-proclaimed acquisitor
		I  am a link yet I function as a complete unit
		I aim at encompassing heights
		And strike my target
		Sure and steady.

		Life is one joyous journey for me.
		Each search must end with a new quest.
		I am  progress, exploration and insight.
		I am the womb of activity.

		I am the Rat.

Charming and humourous, honest and meticulous. Although they can give good advice, they cannot necessarily decide for themselves. May be power hungry, petty or greedy, Bright, sociable and highly ambitious. A true opportunist to reach the target. Passionate and good to her lover. Yet likes to gamble and spend lavishly.

The charm of the Rat personality is as universally known and loved as the Walt Disney character, Mickey Mouse. He could be forthright and honest but in such a disarming manner that you find yourself at a disadvantage.

Remarkably easy to get along with, hard working and thrifty, he will be generous only to those he is inordinately fond of, so if you get an expensive gift from him, you should certainly rate yourself high in his esteem. However, in spite of his penny-pinching ways, he will never be found wanting for admirers as he emits such fantastic appeal.
