The Rabbit has arrived!

Kung Hei Fat Choi!

Feb 03, 2011

I'm not much of an astrology fan but since I work for a Chinese-owned company (hmmmm ...I wonder, will the CEO give out tikoy or nian gao?), everyone is talking about it. 

To satisfy my curiosity   I read  here  that 2011 the Year of the Metal Rabbit  is inauspicious for WOOD Rabbits (born in 1915 and 1975).

Like me. :(

Didn't curiosity kill the cat LOL because what is worse than reading  this ?

This is a very bad fortune year for the rabbit. Not only it is difficult for you to earn bucks, you may encounter money loss that may cause you to result in financial crisis. You should be more aware of your spending as well as being extra careful whe dealing with money.

::sigh::

What's new? Another year of tight finances!  

But I believe things will be better, there's no reason to lose hope. Astrology should be taken as a guide only, not a as your fate.  All we have to do is be diligent, kind, and positive and I'm sure bad luck will go away!

And for something to think about, read on.

Me and the new Zodiac Sign

Last year, I was just the good ol' bull, Taurus. Now, some people say I'm an Aries!
All this hype was according to astronomers with the Minnesota Planetarium Society   there's about a one-month bump in the alignment of the stars caused by the effect of the moon's gravitational pull on the Earth through the millenia.

Even "the teddybear", a former Saggitarian, is under the new zodiac (the 13th)  named OPHIUCHUS the SNAKE HOLDER. This zodiac is after a real person, IMHOTEP. (more about Ophiuchus here and here).

Anyway, as food for thought, I will compare the known traits of Tarus and Aries based on my on

TAURUS
Patient and reliable
Warmhearted and loving
Persistent and determined
Placid and security loving

On the dark side....

Jealous and possessive
Resentful and inflexible
Self-indulgent and greedy

ARIES
Adventurous and energetic
Pioneering and courageous
Enthusiastic and confident
Dynamic and quick-witted

On the dark side...

Selfish and quick-tempered
Impulsive and impatient
Foolhardy and daredevil

I suppose, there is a bit of an Arian in me except the traits in  paler shades (in fact, I'm slooowww to anger). I don't know if  we have these traits because it's in our stars or  we unconsiously emulate our known zodiac signs. What do you think?

What about you? Are you having zodiac identity crises yet?
