Some facts about Rooster people
The Rooster is the tenth 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, Rooster became tenth.
Roosters are serious in their work. They are straightforward and decisive in their actions. They’ll directly criticize what they see unfit and are perfectionists. They are logical and good at managing teams. No matter how difficult something is, they won’t give up. But if someone is blocking their path, they will reveal their fierce side.
Amigurumi Rooster is a perfect and special birthday gift to make for people who are born in the Years of the Rooster are 2017, 2005, 1993, 1981, 1969, 1957 and 1945
