Chinese zodiac

Goat 羊

The Goat is gentle persistence: creativity, care, and the patience to make slow things beautiful.

The Goat (also translated Sheep or Ram) is the cycle's artist: gentle, imaginative and sensitive to harmony. It reads as creativity, care and a preference for a slower, well-made life.

The shadow is worry and dependence: the Goat can see every flaw and feel every weather. The useful reading is sensitivity — the chart shows whether it becomes craft or anxiety.
