4 Rooster (Fire)

The rooster is a male chicken who (as with many species) is much showier than his female cohorts. Roosters tend to have strikingly colorful plumage, with long tails and shiny pointed feathers on their necks and backs. They strut around as if they are in charge and are known for the loud crowing sound they make to greet the dawn and warn of danger. They are the epitome of confidence, and not the subtle kind either.

This card says be loud and proud. Don't hide your light under a bushel. It is time to show everyone what you can do instead of being modest and letting someone else take the credit for your hard work or dedication. Step up, step out, and strut your stuff with your head held high. There is nothing wrong with confidence if you've earned it.

If you get this card, maybe it is time to look at how you present yourself to the world—and, for that matter, what you see when you look in the mirror. Confidence in your own abilities is important, and it doesn’t always come easily. We are often told not to brag or show off, but being confident doesn’t mean you have to yell about how great you are. Quiet self-confidence will get you far. Believe in yourself, and there is no limit to what you can accomplish.
