I-Ching

Naming babies in Taiwan is quite an ordeal. The Taiwanese government insists that all babies have a Chinese name. But, you can't make up a Chinese name. It has to be an established name. Which, I guess is why everyone pretty much has the same names here. To help in the naming process, Taiwanese often go to fortune tellers to read the baby's I-Ching. Which is based on an oracle that forms a philosophy and divination based on the child's birth date, birth minute, lunar schedule etc.

Jenny's family went and got Drai's I-Ching done for him to help Jenny come up with a suitable and lucky Chinese name. She still hasn't decided yet. But his I-Ching was interesting. The fortune teller didn't know he was a mixer and didn't see a picture of him. They told us the following based on his numerology:
Personality:
Outgoing, talkative, loves to socialize, charming, hot-tempered (must get that from his mom,)bad tempered, sharp-tongued, independent, intelligent, stubborn (must get that from his mom,)likes to help others but doesn't like asking for help. Sharp, funny demeanor. Loyal and generous to family and friends.
Talents:
Business, farming, excellent style, verbal jousting, memorizing, womanizing, managing money (The fortune teller reiterated three times that he will be very good with women.)
Luck:
Not much
Body:
Big mouth, thick eyebrows and he needs to be careful with his arms and legs because they could be hurt easily. It says he will have a long and healthy life, though.

Kind of fun to read all of that. I think Jenny is worried about the "natural born lady-killer" tag. (Her words, not mine.) I, on the other hand think that is the best part! Lock up your daughters!
