According to the Chinese Calendar, the first day of the coming Lunar year, which will be the Year of the Dog, will fall on January 29, 2006. While Western Astrology is based upon the months of the year, Chinese Astrology is based upon a twelve-year lunar cycle. Your sign is determined by the year in which you were born. Each sign and those born under it, are represented by one of twelve animals, and are ascribed a set of attributes the Chinese believe comprise the nature of each particular animal. Legend has it that when Buddha was dying he invited all the animals to visit him. However, only 12 animals came... they are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. So, the Buddha honoured them by making each of them to represent the twelve signs of the Zodiac.
What's in store for each of the twelve animal signs in 2006? 2006 is the Year of the Dog - bringing luck and fortune to all Dogs. However, the animal opposing that of the current year always has some troubles or issues to contend with and resolve. So the Dragon will have a tougher year, caution and not exceeding your limits is advised. The three animals that gain most from the year are the Tiger, the Horse and the Rabbit.
Every sign is different and it’s important to remember that each year the Chinese animal comes up, it can have one of five different elemental makeup— wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Each of these elements mean that you react differently to the year depending on what’s in play in 2006. This year is a ‘Fire Dog’ so if your element clashes with Fire you may have a tougher, more challenging or testing year. And this does not mean you won't succeed — the challenge may be just what you need to make it.
THE RAT:
