This is the Year of the Monkey, which means risk-takers beware, said Hazel Mah, owner of Profusion restaurant in Tampa.

"It's a very clever sign," Mah said. "Even if you are clever, you will not be able to outsmart others. Other people will outsmart you."

While the animals each have their own characteristic - the monkey is considered very intelligent and diplomatic, craves attention and will do anything to get it


Hmm...very intelligent. OK, it's not that monkey.
