PERSONALITY
You are showy and enjoy entertaining friends and meeting people. You are one of the best dressed and groomed of all the animal signs. You have a high interest in clothes, colors, designs and accessories. 
You also exhibit a compassionate, wise and brave nature when the occasion arises such as when a person is in need of help.
Because you have a strong independent spirit, you find it very difficult to accept advice from anyone. Instead, you follow your own strong independent nature. In fact sometimes when things need to be said, you could be so direct and blunt that you would inadvertently hurt others. Therefore, at times it would be wise for you to be quiet and not express yourself in order to keep peace.
You are indeed highly intelligent, ambitious and a good speaker. You do well in discussions and debates. When you try to hide your sometimes erratic and careless behavior, you are able to put up a good front by protecting yourself with humor and lively conversation.
You certainly can conduct yourself in a dignified and confident manner. You are adept at handling financial matters. Most Roosters save or spend their money wisely, but a few are spendthrifts.
Being highly organized, you always write down reminders or bits of information and conduct activities in an orderly manner.
You do not like criticism and will let others know of your feelings. You can also be self-centered and stubborn over little things but overshadowing these weaknesses are your qualities of honesty, trustworthiness and reliability.
MARRIAGE
Good for matrimony with ox, snake or dragon year people.
Avoid mating with rat, rooster or rabbit year people.
COLOR: WHITE
The rooster is associated with the color white, which represents autumn and maturity. White also symbolizes purity, cleanliness, and freshness. Although white is worn by family members at funerals, the color is also related to good fortune and white birds especially, are a sign of good luck.
