Dog
1910, 1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018, 2030, 2042,

Dog is Yin. Dog is the eleventh sign of the Chinese horoscope.
Dogs have the following characteristics:
Constancy Duty
Heroism Intelligence
Respectability Morality
Dog sins may include:
Uneasiness
Criticism
Self-Righteousness
Cynicism
Unsociability
Tactlessness
People horn in Dog years spend much of their time in an advanced state
of
suspicious outrage. Dogs think the evil world is plotting against them,
that
life is a dreadful place to live in and that it's up to them to put
things
to rights. Dogs are crusaders. Give a Dog a cause to campaign for and
he'll
unearth every bone he's buried for the last ten years in order to see
that
justice is done. Thorough, diligent, faithful, honest, loyal and
devoted all
of the above apply to Dog subjects.
Even at his grumpiest, the Dog is a lovable, if somewhat intractable,
beast.
He cannot he bothered with trifles because he is intensely involved in
constructing an airtight case for his lawsuit against the toy
manufacturer
who made the space capsule he bought his son for Christmas. The
workmanship
is shoddy. The 100 percent virgin polyester plastic is toxic and should
not
he eaten by a two-year-old. Mr. Dog has the toy laboratory tested. This
time
the toy company is in big trouble.
Poor Doggie, you drag yourself away from your desk, exhausted after
writing
twenty angry letters to school boards around the country warning them
of the
dangers of frozen pizza in their cafeterias, and you need to be loved.
You
seek comfort and understanding. You sit down at the knee of your
favorite
companion and lay your furry head in a welcoming lap. Your big liquid
eyes
stare beseechingly upward. You sigh,---Why doesn't General Motors put
inflatable safety seats in all their new cars?"
Because of this "Ralph Nader' side to their character, Dogs are often
found
in jobs where helping others makes up a large part of their
responsibility.
They are nurses or doctors or lawyers or architects-or poets. But they
are
usually not politicians or gangsters. Dogs don't take to crime. They
are not
after easy gain. They just want a quiet life with a nice family where
they
will be left undisturbed by the rolling world of scandal and scum.
Trouble is, Dogs are so busy rescuing others and caring about causes,
they
forget to take care of Number One. They don't look out for their own
interests and are surprised and hurt when they realize they've been
double-crossed or taken to the cleaners by ruthless characters. Dogs
even
wear a look of hurt on their faces, a perplexed near frown that says,
"Don't
hit me again. I'm sorry. I'll be quiet. I won't chew up slippers
anymore."
It's quite sad.
But this attitude, this air of the beaten Dog, is very endearing.
People are
attracted to Dogs. Dogs are nice, friendly, loving souls. Only thing
is,
they fall victim to frequent attacks of barking. The most placid peace
loving person may suddenly snap! Out of nowhere the Dog blurts, "Your
friend
Bill is a creep!"
It's baffling. Where did this disobliging remark come from? You thought
Doggie loved Bill. How can it be? "I'm sorry," says Doggie
apologetically.
"I didn't mean that Bill is really a creep. You know, I just mean that
sometimes Bill's a little weird."
Dogs are basically too nice to be really nasty. But they are critical
and
very cutting. They reason too much, take things to pieces instead of
looking
at them globally and eschew fancy because they fear it. Dogs are afraid
of
their own shadows. They lack confidence and don't mind blaming their
faults
on others.
Sorry, Doggie, mistakes as well as good deeds are always your own fault
and
only your fault. You can't put the blame on the rest of the world for
your
own failings. Cheer up. You have tons of charm and masses of ability.
You
are noble, upstanding, moral and generous. You make a terrific mate for
those who have a mission or want to spend all their time creating. In
fact,
I was wondering .

Omnipresent in the native of this sign is "feeling." Emotions run both
deep
and high in this sensitive-even touchy-character. Cancer/Dogs seem to
carry
a blinking sensor-beam radar system on their very skins. Everything
affects
them and affects them profoundly. A word, a glance or--God forbid-a
harsh
remark can dissolve these susceptible souls into a heap of nervous
prostration in a wink. Cancer/Dogs are born to be artistic. Touched by
the
magic wand of aestheticism, these people need protection from the big
bad
world and its vicissitudes.
Yet, despite their hyper-receptivity to stimuli from the outside,
Cancer/Dog
people do get on in life. They secure jobs and have children and take
care
of business in a serious and competent manner. Cancer/Dogs get involved
in
complex and difficult schemes and are always attracted to the most
baroque
of problems, which they set about solving with quiet grace.
Intricate circumstances, in all their complexity and labyrinthine
turns, do
not daunt this patient, serious character one bit. Cancer/Dogs are the
people who burn midnight oil, smoke too many cigarettes and worry
through
dense thickets of ideas and plans till they sort out a brilliant
solution.
Even the least of Cancer/Dogs will he drawn to improving on life's
scenery.
Dogs born in Cancer love to garden and redecorate and plan buildings
and
books and paintings and musical compositions. Creativity is their
middle
name.
And worry is their main hobby. Cancerian Dogs fret over any and
everything
that comes along. They panic and grow anxious at the least missed
appointment or deadline. They agonize over the exhibition of their
works and
stay awake nights gnawing at themselves over whether or not the woman
in the
department store who sold them the paint brushes was lying when she
said the
brushes were real sable. Cancer/Dogs fret over what seems to less testy
creatures minor and petty detail. For a Cancer/ Dog the air he breathes
is
rife with menace. He's careful about absolutely every part of his
existence.
But no matter how cautious and picayune he tries to be, life has ways
of
surprising him.
As a result of his overly wary attitude, the Cancer/Dog sometimes gives
us
the impression of being painted into his own corner. He seems to be
afraid
of his own shadow. Is he a little paranoid? To tell you the truth, I
think
he is. The average Cancer/Dog person has one finger on the panic button
at
all times-and it shows.
Being on the qui vive all the time does not, however, stop this person
from
being entirely reasonable and enormously just in his dealings with
others.
If he believes in someone he will go to the limits of his ability to
bring
succor to them. His capacity for empathy is enormous and his sixth
sense
about what is right and meet in any given situation is always accurate.
The Cancer/Dog is a giver, too. He's generous and kindly and because he
wants very much for others to measure up to the heights of
self-sacrifice of
which he himself is capable, he is adorably encouraging to, the people
he
loves. Patient and gentle and good, the Cancer/Dog makes, an ideal
partner.
If he is involved with others, whether in business (which. is rare) or
in
some artistic project (more common), he is never after the fame or the
glory
a successful end result might bring. Cancer/Dog. merely want to get on-
with
making something wonderful happen. They are anything but egomaniacal,
but
because they place beauty so high on., their list of priorities,
sometimes
their goals may seem selfish or demanding.
Fact is, Dogs born in Cancer are not really of this world. Left to
their own
devices, they would probably manage very well to set themselves
comfortably
up in a cave somewhere, get themselves some books and papers and invite
along some pets to love them-and maybe a mate to admire-and keep
themselves
busy till the cows come home with many it- useful and beautiful
pursuits.
Love
The special province of Cancer/Dog people is their uncanny ability to
love
others. Although harmony won't necessarily invest their every affair,
you
can he sure that the Cancer/Dog half of any couple is the one who is
making
the most real effort to keep things on an even keel. A snappish person,
the
Cancer/Dog is often on edge and seems cranky when he's really just
insecure
about something. His need for true affection and tenderness is
imperative to
his very physical health.
Moreover, the Cancer/Dog cannot live well without loving. He must have
an
object for his bottomless well of emotion. Without somebody to shower
with
indulgence and admiration, the Cancer/Dog will be tempted to give up,
lie
down and die. He must be loyal and faithful to another soul and he
desperately needs to feel awful if he dares betray said lover.
Cancer/Dogs
thrive on the play between themselves and others in love relationships.
Without it, they skulk about looking whipped and sorrowful.
If you love a Cancerian Dog person, you must arm yourself with
patience.
There will be two big problems involved in maintaining a loving
rapport. On
the one hand, your Cancer/Dog sweetheart will seem thoroughly
unavailable at
times and reluctant to step down from his creativity cloud. And on the
other, this lovable bundle of feelings will seem to cling to you until
you
choke. With Cancer/Dogs it's all or nothing.
Compatibility's
You will get along with Taurus, Virgo and Pisces/Cats. Taurus, Scorpio
and
Virgo/Tigers are just your cup of tea as well. And you faint for
admiring
Taureans horn in Rat years. Aries, Libra and/or Capricorn/ Dragons and
Coats
unnerve you. As for Aries/Pigs-forget it! They seem sunnier than they
really
are.
Home and Family
Of course, this beauty-loving person will invariably abide in
loveliness.
Surroundings are essential to the Cancer anyway. Cancers of all
persuasions
need to make homes and are born with the nesting instinct. This
particular
Cancer subject, whose dogged pursuit of the aesthetic knows no
frontiers,
will automatically want to evolve in a safe and secure-as well as
beautiful
and well-designed-ambience.
The Cancer/Dog's family is everything to him. But, as I said earlier,
sometimes he seems absent or distant from his natural emotional ties.
the
truth is, no matter what the Cancer/Dog is preoccupied by, he's always
most
at ease and feels best in his skin when there are family members about.
He
may be writing the greatest novel of all time or painting a masterpiece
in
his hermetically sealed studio, but Cancer/Dog is listening for the
friendly
noises of family life below stairs. The smells and sounds of everyday
existence keep the Cancer/Dog's feet on the ground. As a parent he is
dutiful and kindly.
As a child this person may seem brittle and emotionally fragile. All
brands
of loving attention are in order. He doesn't require applause so much
as he
does tenderness, direction and sincerity from parents and siblings. The
Cancer/Dog child needs to be understood and his creative side seeks
indulgence. Lessons of all sorts, encouragement, slow patient teaching
and
plenty of hand-knit afghans to curl up in front of the fire with will
ensure
the stable future of this gentle talent.
Profession
The life's work of Cancer/Dogs is cut out for them at birth. Learning
how to
apply sensitivity and creative talents to life in a modern world is as
large, a chunk as anyone can be expected to bite off. Directing and
molding
talent into workable forms will take a tot of this person's time and
energy
He can be expected to work in a bank or to take orders in a hamburger,
joint, but he will not he fulfilled by such impersonal work.
Embellishing
life is what he does best.
Were I to hire a Cancer/Dog, I would never worry that he'd he late for
work
or forget to add up a column of figures. Cancer/Dogs know the value of
money
and are careful to maintain their accounts and keep their debts to a
minimum. They make excellent workers in areas where their creativity is
challenged, and can even be bosses-and good ones--provided the area in
which
they're called upon to exert authority is a pretty one. They can direct
operations on a building site, as long as the building is the Louvre.
We
already know that Cancer/Dogs make excellent artist of all varieties.
They
can also try dealing in antiques or selling painting or even agenting
or
owning an art gallery. Cancer/Dogs make good commercial artists, too,
and
decoration is one of their obvious career field specialties.
Famous Cancer Dogs: Claude Debussy, Marcel Proust, Jean Anouilh,
Alexander
Calder, Donald Sutherland, Sylvester Stallone.
Funny he also works on a lot of Dog Whistling!
