General Relations

Although the Rat and Rooster are two sociable and outgoing signs they do not relate well to each other. The Rat dislikes the vanity and egoism of the Rooster, while the Rooster finds the Rat too opportunist and manipulative.

Neither places much trust in the other. Both signs can be notoriously blunt in their views and their outspokenness may prove the deathknell for any friendship that might have existed between them.

The Rat and the Rooster do not work well together. The Rooster plans his activities to the finest detail and is highly organized, while the Rat is supreme at taking advantage of a situation and places great reliance on his charm and resourcefulness. The Rat finds the Rooster too much of a restraining influence, while the Rooster dislikes the opportunistic ways of the Rat. They are not a successful combination.

In Love and Marriage

Initially there may be a strong attraction between them. Both like to lead an active social life, are keen partygoers and both have a deep love of conversation. In the early stages of their relationship they may have much fun together, each charmed by the qualities of the other. However, the longer-term prospects are difficult and each sign needs to make major adjustments if they want to remain together.

Although they may share similar interests, their different personality traits may bring them into conflict. Both are forceful characters, with minds of their own, and each may try to dominate the relationship. The Rooster is precise, orderly and well organized; the Rat prefers to live day to day. There is likely to be much arguing and bickering and, with their forthright natures, each may be critical of the other.
