Born October 14, 1964, his primary personality traits are represented by the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal sign, the Wood Dragon. The Wood Dragon is the most mellow of the species as the gentle Wood element tones down some of the Dragon's usual arrogance and bossiness.

If he can develop your practical side, he will be capable of great accomplishments.
