Monkey Years
Monkey years tend to be unstable political and economic times. Expect many ups and downs throughout the year. Although it is a time of invention, care must be taken to ensure that the ideas are used for constructive purposes.

Monkeys in Rat Years
Monkeys will thrive in the year of the Rat as it is a wonderful time for them in terms of innovation and creativity. Many opportunities abound for romance, business, and health.

Monkey Personality
As any reader of the old Curious George books knows, Monkeys are clever, inventive, mischievous, and have an insatiable curiosity. Although often popular, their ideas are seldom taken seriously, leading to frustration and bouts of depression. Their cleverness and versatility allow them to be successful in many areas.

Monkey Symbolism
Monkeys represent cleverness and curiosity. By themselves, they can get into a lot of trouble. Their inventiveness can lead to good, or evil.

Monkey People
Leonardo da Vinci, Julius Caeser, Elizabeth Taylor
