Goat Characteristics
Goats can be loners, but prefer to be with others. They are meek, calm, curious, and intelligent, but also proud and possess a stubborn streak. They have fantastic balance and quickly learn from each other. If one finds a flaw in a fence, other goats will mimic the opportunity. Their harmonious yin energy explains why they represent peace.
Goat People
Are easy-going, intellectual, witty, loyal, thoughtful, but tender and worry a lot. However, it's a lucky year for those born during this sign. Anything is possible, with relationships, wealth and career shining. Goat's popularity is just as well, as they crave security for everything, so valuing love, friendship and their home. This makes them good partners - best with pig and rabbit people, but with the ox there is little harmony.
Goats like working with their hands, so best jobs are in caring, medicine, architecture or anything arty. They lack ambition, preferring to work with others. Alternate careers are an actor, teacher, writer, florist, musician or a hair dresser.
Predictions
Goats are creative animals that move forward, so this is the year to use your imagination without distraction. Calm and tranquility will dominate 2015, balancing the international economy. The sheep's nurturing will ensure wisdom and good will prevail global conflicts. Respect to alliances will encourage unity to combat evil. Everything will slow with a drive back to basics, compromise and healing.
