In depth
🐑 Goat · Full profile and well-known people
An in-depth personality reading, likes and dislikes, love and work styles, and well-known people born in this sign.
Goats tend to be gentle and kind, with plenty of compassion, an artistic streak and a deep need for emotional connection. You understand others well and often put them first, though you can end up shortchanging yourself by giving in too much. Setting boundaries isn't cold; it's a way of protecting your gentleness.
The Goat (Wei) is gentle and auspicious. In Chinese, the character for goat (yang, 羊) is linked with the character for good fortune (xiang, 祥), so it symbolises harmony and blessings.
