1943: Year of the Goat

About the Water Goat

Water deepens the Goat's emotional sensitivity and artistic nature, creating a personality of extraordinary empathy and creative imagination. The Water Goat absorbs the feelings of those around them like a sponge, producing both remarkable compassion and occasional emotional overwhelm. This element gives the Goat's creativity a flowing, dreamlike quality that can produce art of haunting beauty. The Water Goat needs protected creative space and emotionally stable companions to thrive.

The Yin Water Goat retreats into a rich inner world of feeling and imagination, producing art and insight that flows from the deepest wells of emotional experience.
