Year of the Rat

The creature who won the Emperors great race, and became the first animal of the Chinese Zodiac, did so with cunning wit, a touch of good luck, and a cutting dose of trickery. The Rat, the Cat, and the Ox were the first to arrive at the river, and quickly the two smaller animals realized they would not be able to cross without convincing the Ox to help, who naively obliged. The Rat and the Cat were about to reach the riverbank on the back of the Ox, when the Rat, in a flash of cruel brilliance, pushed the Cat into the water and hopped to shore, racing to the Emperor before the Ox had the chance. People born in the Year of the Rat are of nimble feet and mind, charming and likable with sharp tongues and resourceful habits. They are ambitious, smart and a little stubborn, and they know exactly how to use their unique talents and skills to get ahead and thrive.
