The most creative sign in the Chinese zodiac, those born in the Year of the Sheep (also known as the Year of the
Ram1 or Goat) are often
artistic2, sensitive, sweet and charming.
Shy by nature, Sheep are not the most practical of people and, although well-mannered, they may occasionally suffer from "hoof-in-mouth disease" by saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. Still, with their considerable charm and
innocence3, Sheep never lack for protective friends and admirers. This is especially so among family members, to whom they are strongly attached.
Famous people born in the Year of the Sheep: Jane Austen, Boris Becker, Jamie Foxx, Mel Gibson, Franz Liszt, Michelangelo, Michael Owen, Mark Twain, Rudolph Valentino, Barbara Walters, Bruce Willis, Orville Wright.
