Chinese New Year

hello

the lunar new year is coming yay!!! its the year of the ox x) ... hehe according to my chinese horoscope its going to be a much better year than the year of the rat.. so i guess thats good news considering what i've been facing throughout the entire rat year. i had a lot of foot injuries, almost had to get admited into the hospital, was ill all the time, my stomach went haywire more than usual and lots more calamities... but on the bright side the year of the rat tighten my bonds with my sisters from another mother and father. brought me closer to my mum and sister and introduced me to a bunch of new friends (G11) and it gave me more chance to be independent in a way... if you know me then you'll know what i'm talking about ;) ...

Do you guys believe in chinese astrology? haha i know a lot of people who think its a bunch of crap but for i believe in it... for some reason i've been rather superstitius since i was a little natalie.... so here's what they predicted for the Horse people in the year 2009...

Your sign is Horse.

Things are looking up. Oxen admire your stamina and ability to undertake hard labor without a whimper or a whinge. This then should be a terrific year for Horses. No interference. No meddling in your business. No directives. However, Ox years are not brilliant for the Horse’s romantic life. You may indeed fall in love this year. And when you fall, you crash. Thunderously.
But this year, the more passion you throw at your chosen significant other, the less the person seems to want to cozy up to you. You can avoid being disappointed in love by simply leaving your hormones at the gate and running the race alone. Your professional picture bodes nothing but success. So long as you apply perpetual elbow grease and show persistence, the Ox will not only stay out of your way, but will applaud you, encourage you and when he can, recommend you highly to any influential people you may need to know in order to advance your career.

Health? Nothing serious or life threatening is visible on the surface. But you really ought to look after yourself better. Horses tend to think they are invincible and rarely, if ever, bother going to doctors or visiting other health practitioners. Avoiding the symptoms you have been living with now for far too long without a medical opinion or two could lead to a chronic illness (or worse) which will stay with you for at least the next dozen Chinese years.

My warning about possible illness is not meant to frighten you, but to keep you on track. You are not exactly what I would call "devil-may-care" about health. But you own the opinion that you are not only self-sufficient and disgustingly healthy, but more or less invincible. Hooray! Confidence of this type is all too scarce in today's world. But isn't it wise to remember that we are all expendable and that you, Horsey are no exception to the rule?

Basically, I don't know why I ever tell you Horse people to DO anything. You are doers by nature and you DO things all the time. Trouble only arises when someone else suggests you do something you don't want to do. You simply will not do anything you do not wish to do. Whatever you undertake, you do well and thoroughly. The way you work when you do work would put even the Ox to shame. But you do what you want, when you want to do it - and only when you feel like it.

Your love life may be static this year. You financial picture however picks up straightaway when the Chinese year begins. You will eventually make some extra money doing something you love to do. It may be teaching a skill or taking care of someone who is ill or consultant on a startup that's in trouble. But whatever it is, you like doing it and... as with the rest, you are excellent at what you love to do.

Meanwhile, as this year will tend to take up almost all of your time for work projects, make sure you take some time off to nurture your creativity. Paint, sew, cook, sing, dance or write poetry. Without a creative outlet, you tend to go a bit mad and start kicking holes in the stable walls. Use every spare moment to practice doing what you love most.

I don't know if what they say is true but hey its no harm to read for some it might even have some good laughs... anyways

Happy Chinese New Year Everyone !
May you have a very happy and prosperous year of the ox :)
