The Fire Monkey is the most energetic and the most assured among all the Monkeys. He has a strong natural charm, which helps him greatly to obtain the favors of others. Intelligent, pragmatic and skilled, the Fire Monkey derives its motivations from the image he projects of his own personal success.

Very uncomfortable with old age, this type of Monkey will do anything to look younger. Innovative and focused on progress, the Fire Monkey has many ideas in his infancy that might never become reality, as long as he persists in wanting to do everything on his own. Furthermore, the Fire Monkey only accepts the help of others as long a he can dominate them thanks to his sharp analytical mind.

Even though he remains very endearing and ready to compromise in love, the Fire Monkey has great difficulty in accepting betrayal. When he suffers a disappointment or a bad turn of life, the Fire Monkey can easily turn moody and become vindictive with his entourage.
