Moonlight Chicken: Chinese Zodiac ↣ Those born in the Year of the Goat (also known as Sheep or Ram) tend towards a gentle temperament. Goats rarely lose their temper or become overly aggressive. They care about others' feelings and never intend to hurt people. They tend to be empathetic towards other people and understand from their perspectives. Goats can be very passive and tend to be pessimistic, which means that they seek support and understanding from their friends. They also tend to be aloof around strangers.

'Millennials look younger than Gen Z' discourse from Astrology POV:

While I don't necessarily agree with this, the statement could be easily explained by astrology:

Millennials were lucky enough to be born when Saturn - the planet of aging & time - is in strong dignity: Libra (1983), Capricorn (1988-1991), and Aquarius (1991-1994). Having Saturn in strong dignity (in a sign where it's in domicile or exalted), definitely gives you the privilege and advantage to age gracefully and look better with time.

Millennials also are defined by having their Pluto in Scorpio. Pluto is the planet of transformation, and also regeneration - think of a snake shedding its skin, or skin regeneration. Pluto is in strong dignity (domicile) in Scorpio, which gives millennials another advantage.

Gen Z were born in times when Saturn happens to be in weak dignity (in a sign where it's in fall or in detriment); Aries (1996-1999), Cancer (2003-2005), Leo (2005-2007).

Gen Z are defined by having their Pluto in Sagittarius. Pluto in Sagittarius is neither in strong nor in weak dignity here.

Do you think Bedsy will break the generational talent Calder curse and win it? Also, who’s his ovi/auston, Leo or Adam? I’m thinking Leo.

i) Yes I absolutely do think he'll win it -- basically no one else is even in his wheelhouse right now. He's going to put up 40 goals with that lineup surrounding him? Not a chance the trophy goes anywhere other than Chicago.

ii) I don't think it's either of them? Ovi and Auston were also drafted first overall, in separate (but adjacent) DYs to Sid and Connor. If anyone's Bedsy's Ovi/Auston, it's Macklin Celebrini. (Largely because Slafkovsky does not appear to be That Guy.)

That being said -- and this kind of answers both questions at once -- I don't think The Child is of... the same model of generational talent as Sid and Connor? Both of those two are perfect Canadian boys, measured and even on purpose, playmakers far, far more than they're goalscorers. Bedard is... if anything, he's the Ovi/Auston, with the exception of being Canadian himself: he's got a fiery spirit, a quick wit, a terrifying release on that shot of his. Ice in his veins pops up more than once in any comment section of a highlight of his.

I think we might be seeing something entirely new with him as an entity. We're nearing the end of the age of Crosby (...at some point he does have to get old, right?) and entering the age of Bedard (good old middle child McDavid is, again, a lot more Crosby -- arguably better, but in the same mould, a creature of the same origin), so all bets are off, really. I'm very excited!
