Cock

Personality

 Your bright red comb frightens bad spirits away in Vietnamese tradition. Protected from them, you don't hesitate parading around ostentatiously in public. Hungry for honors and medals, you love to be recognized for your talents at their just value and to be congratulated in all circumstances. Spiteful people who criticize you quickly get clawed because you hate being criticized. Your best quality is your frankness. You always say what you think even at the risk of hurting those close to you. Yet you always hide your real feelings out of an extreme sense of propriety because you can't stand people meddling in your affairs. In public, you are a true Rooster : an extravagant dandy who is curious about everything, you strut down the street - a smooth talker who loves to be the center of attention. Appearances are more important to you than what's inside. If people don't look at you, you get depressed. You will happily spend hours before the mirror to admire your wonderful, flamboyant feathers. But your attention to detail and perfectionist nature sometimes make you forget the essential. As a loyal and courageous friend, you don't hesitate attacking if you need to defend your friends, even if the battle seems lost in advance. You respect all the rules of the society because you are a real conformist. Your fault : You are somewhat narcissistic and pedantic.

Work

You have your feet on ground and your head in the accounts! An expert planner and master of beautiful discourses, you excel at organizing and directing the work of others on a well-outlined path. You use tested methods rather than trying to initiate new ones, but methods as old as the world allow you to make money easily. You know your work and how to take measured risks. Risky undertakings make you "sick". Although your obsessive perfectionism tends to slow you down, it also helps you to avoid certain traps. When you have succeeded in a mission, your superiors would be well advised to show their appreciation. Honors and recognition motivate you a lot!

Money

Your qualities as a manager help you to invest wisely and you often save the ante as well; you back down before no expense to shine in the eyes of society: sumptuous dinners, dressing to the nines, the hottest cars, showy jewelry, etc. Those close to you have to keep up the pace and style, which makes you look generous in their eyes. In fact, only your friends profit : you are generous only because you care about how you look in the eyes of society; you are quite mean with those you do not know and keep a rigorous account of expenses, stopping yourself before you go into the red.

Love

As a conformist, you prefer stability to adventure and simple sentiments to passionate ones. But living with you can be trying because you don't hesitate commenting on the pimple your partner has on their nose or the ugly bulge around their waist while you yourself, accept no criticism. You are incorrigibly jealous and tolerate no rival. If your partner has the misfortune to look elsewhere you quickly become aggressive. To seduce you, your partner must find you irresistible, take care of your every need, be understanding and have a taste for social life.
