Characteristics and personalities of the Fire Goat

Creative, fragile, sensitive, ballsy, feisty. This is one complex individual. 

Fire Goats are tough on the outside but a complete softie in real life. 

These characters are extraordinarily talented. 

They’ll fluctuate between "yeah, I'm brilliant," to thinking "you know what, I'm talentless" - and they’ll sort of do that their entire life, which is why these characters shouldn't be on their own for too long. 

They must be surrounded by people who remind them just how brilliant they are - daily. 

The Fire Goat is effectively lovely, they have a very genuine heart and are fundamentally gorgeous. 

They’ll be difficult to fathom - but one thing isn't up for debate, the creative talent - they have oodles of it.

Compatibility

The Goat is most compatible with the Pig and the Rabbit.

The Rabbit, Pig, and Goat are the people pleasers of the zodiac. 

The trio is often known as easy going, loving, but can be considered dull and cowardly.

The Rabbit can be detached, but the Goat is humble and civil.

However, the Goat is least compatible with the Ox, Tiger, and Dog. 

The Pig is known as the most generous, sincere, and honorable of all the animals in the zodiac.

Goats will argue with these signs due to their hot-headed nature. 

They will consistently engage in quarrels with no clear objective in sight which is why pursuing a relationship with either sign is not recommended.
