The Metal Rooster in Chinese Astrology

Of all the animal signs in the Chinese zodiac, the Rooster is one of the most complex, thanks to a combination of various factors. Under the influence of an element like Metal, there is an intensifying of certain traits which on one hand makes it a worthier individual but on the other also pushes it towards a negative extreme.

At the best of times, the Rooster is driven by a sense of self-importance. He/she is well aware of his/her intrinsic capabilities which is why they feel it their duty to organize and direct others too. However the element Metal brings about a hardening of this nature so that this Rooster can end up with an ego several times its size. Driven by a sense of superiority in all that they plan and do, the Metal Rooster can be quite full of him/herself and thus can come off as arrogant and dictatorial. He/she has a clear idea on how to go about a thing and is extremely unlikely to brook any opposition, no matter from what quarter.

Yet another factor which makes the Metal Rooster a rather abrasive personality is their penchant for criticism. The fact is that Roosters is not only strives to attain perfection in all they do, but often applies their own impossibly high standards to others as well. And woe betides anyone who is unable to match up to the Rooster’s lofty expectations since then this sign can give vent to their characteristically frank opinions. However under the influence of Metal, their exacting nature acquires a keener edge so that this Rooster can be quite brutal in their honesty, especially if they believe that someone is a slacker or a cheat. Thus highly sensitive types like the Goat and Pig would do well to maintain a distance from the Metal Rooster whose critical tongue can be difficult to digest for even the sturdier type.

And yet not everything about the Metal Rooster is a matter of concern. This sign is usually blessed with a tough constitution which is a lot to say for a sign like Rooster that is given to nervous ailments and even hypochondria. In fact the Metal Rooster has a capacity for physical endurance and hard work which makes it possible for him/her to take on the most arduous of tasks and even be committed to a tedious regime for several weeks at a time.

The above trait actually indicates another commendable trait in the Metal Rooster – his/her strong sense of responsibility. The Rooster in general is deeply conscious of what he/she is supposed to do and they feel compelled to perform to the utmost of their physical and intellectual abilities. However in a Metal Rooster, there is an even deeper resolve to fulfill all obligations and honor all commitments; for this reason this Rooster makes one of the most industrious and conscientious of workers in the Chinese menagerie.

In case of personal relationships too, the high degree of responsibility that marks the Metal Rooster helps him/her to form meaningful and long term relationships. Other than this, Metal brings about a greater intensity of feelings which works out perfectly for an outwardly reticent lover like the Rooster. Once their inhibitions are dropped, this Rooster can surprise and thrill a partner with the depth of their emotions and the height of their passions.
