The name of Xiao-Ou creates a very quiet, practical nature and a clever and inventive mind. You need to have an idea developed step by step because it is not easy for you to follow a line of thought when steps are left out. Your methodical mind requires consistency of thought for clarity of concept. An ability to concentrate could take you into computer programming or accountancy or any work requiring concentration and attention to detail. Finding it difficult to join in conversation with those with whom you are not well-acquainted, you could feel quite alone and uncommunicative with new acquaintances or in a large crowd. At such times, you become moody and uncommunicative. While you long for the affection and understanding of close association, and enjoy home and family, you also require freedom, as you are independent and need a certain amount of time on your own. Being well prepared, though, helps you to express verbally. Your desire for heavier foods, could bring weaknesses in health affecting the stomach or intestinal organs, and could cause, for example, either constipation, arthritis, rheumatism, or growths. One of your greatest salvations is being out in nature, for it is there that you find the peace and serenity you so much desire.
