Some facts about Monkey people
The Monkey is the ninth of all zodiac animals. According to one myth, the Jade Emperor said the order would be decided by the order in which they arrived at his party. Monkey, Rooster, and Dog were in another country, helping a god defeat evil spirits. After, they set off to the party together. Because they arrived at the same time, the Jade Emperor went by the order they met the god in the other country. Thus, Monkey became ninth.
Monkeys’ most defining trait is their intelligence. As children, they win awards and the praises of teachers. As adults, they gain professional recognition and make great leaders. Men born in the Monkey year are enthusiastic and responsible. Women born in the Monkey year are social and connect with others easily.
Amigurumi Monkey is a perfect and special birthday gift to make for people who are born in the Years of the Monkey are 1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028…
