The Rabbit is quick, clever and ambitious, but seldom finishes what he starts. He epitomizes gentleness, refinement and elegance,
turning his back on conflicts of any kind. Preferring a situation that is perfectly favorable according to his specific desires, the
Rabbit bypasses all obstacles and persons he does not find suitable. As a result, he is rarely angry, hostile or aggressive.
Companions quickly forget any discord, only remembering his seductive grace.
The Rabbit is the happiest sign of the Zodiac -- gifted, nice to be with, discreet, refined, reserved, ambitious but not too much so,
and virtuous in the bargain. Nobody ignores Rabbits, for they are good company and know how to make the best of themselves.
Unfortunately, however, Rabbits are superficial and their good qualities are superficial also.
The Rabbit is a social creature, tactful, cool, and sensitive to others. Yet this calm can become aloof, the sensitivity can be quirky
and thin-skinned, and the intelligence can become dilettantish. The Rabbit is lucky -- with brains and only a little hard labor, the
Rabbit can go far.
Rabbits seem to be born with an innate sagacity, a natural shrewdness which makes them streetwise when it comes to the affairs
of the world. Intuitive and with a canny understanding, they seem to possess an ability to see things before they happen, a talent
which secures them the best deals both in business and in life, whilst also ensuring them financial stability and security. With
perfect understanding of their partners, they frequently have the advantage, and in the practice of human relations, they are
unrivaled in what requires subtle negotiations. They will undertake nothing before they have weighed the pros and cons and
examined the deal from every angle. Because of this, people admire the Rabbit and take him into their confidence. He shines in
trade, especially in some offbeat aspect of it like antiques, which permits him to capitalize on his good taste. Politics, diplomacy and
the law all offer the Rabbit equally good opportunities -- provided always that he can live the tranquil life he craves within their
orbit.
Style as well as an eye for beauty are especially associated with this group whose members possess refined tastes together with
artistic skills. Highly creative people, art is of particular interest to them. Because of the Rabbit's built-in acquisitive nature, many
become great collectors, filling their houses with beautiful paintings and objets d'art. In whatever walk of life Rabbits find
themselves, they will always be distinguished by this sense of refinement and their cultured views. Elegant both physically and
intellectually, Rabbits will always stand out from the crowd either as extremely stylish dressers or because they create an
individualistic fashion statement of their own.
During the three phases of his life, the Rabbit will manage to have the peaceful existence he wants on one condition: that he keeps
away from the exceptional situation, the dramatic turn of events, or the insurmountable obstacle. Wars, revolutions, natural
catastrophes have nothing to do with him; he wasn't designed for adversity. Anything that threatens his quiet life becomes
insupportable.
There is usually something offbeat and mysterious in the Rabbit's makeup, as though he held the secret to some great truth that he
dare not reveal. It must be remembered that the Rabbit's apparent weakness can easily be changed into strength -- from man to
magician to god.
The Sensual Rabbit
Though Rabbits are sensitive, sentimental creatures, emotional and easily moved to tears, when it comes to committing themselves
to a long-term relationship they can be quite mercenary. Their driving passion is a desire for an easy life, filled with as much
comfort and luxury as they can get. Thus they are more likely to show their allegiance to someone who will not only provide
security and stability but who will also guarantee as much of la dolce vita as possible. But to give them their due, once they have
found the right partner they make faithful husbands or wives, devoting themselves to their families and to their homes. By the way,
their sensuality usually ensures that the Rabbit family will be a large one.
Affectionate and obliging though he is with those he loves, faithful and loving though he is, the Rabbit finds it easy to benefit his
friends at the expense of those nearest to him; he's not really a family man, and that's the truth of it. Often enough, he regards his
parents or his children almost as strangers to whom he prefers the cronies of his own choice. So far as female Rabbits are
concerned, they can always be relied on to do their duty, but their maternal instinct in fact is strictly limited.
The honest Dog and scrupulous Boar get on well with Rabbits. The Rabbit will settle down well with the Ram whose artistic sense
he appreciates. The Horse and Tiger do not suit them. There is good interaction with the Ox. The Rabbit should remember to avoid
the Rat like the plague!
April is the month of the Rabbit. The time of the Rabbit is from 5:00 a.m. to 6:59 a.m.; their direction of orientation is the east. The
Rabbit's color is light green.
