    ... the Year of the Yang Water Dragon, 2012 2735009141
    Sunday Night is New years Eve so Monday 23rd Jan is the next Chinese New Year. "... the Year of the Yang Water Dragon, 2012, is symbolised by two elements: water sitting on earth. Events that match the nature of the Yang Water Dragon are conflicts but on a smaller scale — water disasters and earthquakes.

    The Yang Water this year symbolises the ocean, its power and dynamic energy. This could also represent the drive to press for socio-political and economic changes." http://gulfnews.com/life-style/general/2012-the-year-of-the-water-dragon-1.967732

    Dubai: According to the Hsia calendar — the Year of the Yang Water Dragon, 2012, is symbolised by two elements: water sitting on earth. Events that match the nature of the Yang Water Dragon are conflicts but on a smaller scale — water disasters and earthquakes.

    The Yang Water this year symbolises the ocean, its power and dynamic energy. This could also represent the drive to press for socio-political and economic changes. A famous Yang Water person is Bill Gates. Without his intelligence and enthusiasm to innovate and create, we may not be enjoying such technology.

    The Fire element energy is missing in 2012. Brightening your lighting is sure to be of benefit. The airline business is in the category of fire element so there could be problems in store. The Dragon energy will bring prosperity to wood- and earth-based industries.

    Feng Shui energies change from year to year. Therefore, it is good to take the necessary precautions.

    In the year of the Dragon, the bad energies called ‘Five Yellow' and ‘Grand Duke Jupiter', which symbolise obstacles and misfortune, fly to the southeast. If your bedroom or main entrance faces the southeast, hang a six rod metal wind chime to dissolve bad vibes.

    PREDICTIONS FOR 2012
    Although Dragons are the masters in 2012, this period can create problems for them too. Dragons take on more than they can handle. Hence, they may not be able to cope with high ambitions. By being smart and aware, Dragons can emerge as winners and be in the spotlight, especially in creative and mass cultural activities.

    Though Rats will remain happy and relaxed in 2012, they need to be optimistic and bold in their actions to achieve success. Rats have a rare ability to emerge dry from water and are therefore better at adapting to rapidly changing situations.

    The Ox may have business pressures, but prospects will open up in 2012. Dedication and perseverance to follow their line of work will be enough to achieve great heights. The Ox, by sheer determination, can overcome all problems.

    Tigers in 2012 will get a chance to showcase their remarkable abilities. Tigers had a difficult time in 2011 and were forced to adjust to a sedate year. However, the results of their labour will be seen at the start of this year.

    Rabbits will be in the spotlight in 2012 and can achieve much success. They will be in combative and optimistic mood and will learn to cope with difficulties.

    Snakes can avoid obstacles in 2012, depending on their subtle intuition and natural wisdom. They can turn all possibilities into success stories. The Snake will be the winner among all members of the zodiac circle.

    Horses will be compatible with the Dragon's flamboyant energy in 2012. They will withstand any test to emerge as winners. They should select the most productive line of work for themselves.

    2012 will be a quiet year for the Sheep, though not without difficulties. They can be successful if they seize opportunities and communicate more. They may be in the spotlight as they are eccentric, artistic and creative. Sheep should cleverly use funds.

    For Monkeys, the year 2012 will be very productive. They will gladly go with the flow of work. Monkeys will use problems as a chance to show their talents and diplomatic skills. They will be brave in times of difficulties.

    There will be a boost in strength in 2012 for Roosters, which will help overcome difficulties. In addition to being ambitious, the ability to communicate may help Roosters reach great heights.

    Dogs in 2012 will feel more relaxed but determined to achieve professional success. Dogs will get material benefits. The favourable position of the planets throughout 2012 will help the Dog in all matters.

    The Boar will enjoy all benefits of the Dragon year — victories, good work and material prosperity. The Boar must strive not to fall into depression.
    All the best for the Year of the Water Dragon!

    Chinese astrology, like Western astrology, has 12 signs, but instead of changing every month, they change every year. Each animal in the Chinese zodiac has its own unique qualities that affect everyone, if you believe in this sort of thing, which I totally do. On January 23, 2012, we enter the year of the dragon, which is roughly equivalent to Aries, which means we're all in for a year of ramming our heads into things, filing our hooves, and being competitive for no reason.

    Even with only 12 signs, Chinese astrology runs on a 60-year cycle. Elements come into play (earth, fire, water, wood, and metal), as well as our old friends yin (female) and yang (male). So as we leave 2011, the year of the yin metal rabbit, 2012 will be the year of the yang water dragon, 2013 will be the year of the yin water snake, and so on forever until you don't need to care anymore because you'll be dead.

    Let's talk about what sign you are!

    If you're born in January or early February, like me, and you think you already know your birth sign because you read it on a placemat in a Chinese restaurant when you were a kid, chances are it was wrong. Placemats always say something like "1996 = Rat" when it would be more accurate to say, "February 19, 1996 to February 7, 1997 = Rat" because Chinese New Year comes a month after Western New Year. So if you're born in January of 1996, you're not a Rat, you're actually a Pig. That might come as a relief to you, because pigs are awesome but, as we'll see, Rats have their charms, too. (Go here and look up your birthday if you're not sure.)

    RAT (1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008) -- If you're born in a rat year, you're tenacious, charming, and clever. Remember Templeton in Charlotte's Web? Who turned out to be a good guy after all, even though he hoarded rotten eggs? You make a good friend, being loyal and generous to those in your pack. You might be greedy, envious, and manipulative, though, so watch it. Compatible with Dragon and Monkey.

    OX (1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009) -- The ox is powerful, calm, goal-oriented, and patient, which is a nice way of saying stubborn as hell. You can also be introverted, and sometimes lonely and insecure, and now I want to give you a hug. Wait, George Clooney is an Ox. Now I really want to give you a hug. Compatible with Snake and Rooster.

    TIGER (1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010) -- You are one sexy animal, tiger, as well as being daring, restless, unpredictable, warm, and sincere. I'm picturing you taking a long nap on a tree limb with your legs dangling down, because maybe you ate a python for lunch. That's not a suggestive metaphor, that's just you being super casual about the fact that you're the Angelina Jolie of what's left of the jungle. Compatible with Horse and Dog.

    RABBIT (1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011) -- Aw, you're a bunny! Me, too. Soft, gracious, elegant, shy, lucky, and kind of a pushover, you like to be around friends and family but you hate it when people try to pick you up by your ears. Or cut off your foot for good luck. Not cool, people, I need that foot. Sheesh. Compatible with Sheep and Pig.

    DRAGON (1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012) -- Dragons are dignified, fiery, warm-hearted, competitive, and make good leaders. They can also be eccentric, arrogant, and they will blast people who annoy them with some scary verbal fire. That can really scour the enamel off your teeth, Dragon, so try to keep your cool and see your dentist regularly. Compatible with Monkey and Rat.

    SNAKE (1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013) -- Snakes are deep, mystical, good with money, a little dangerous, gregarious, and intuitive. They can also be mistrustful, cold (unless they stay under their heat lamps), and suffocating (if they decide they want to keep you forever and/or eat you head-first). Compatible with Rooster and Ox.

    HORSE (1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014) -- Horses need to roam, which some people think makes them fickle, unmoored, and anxious. But horse lovers know that all that muscle, mental and otherwise, needs to be used or else it goes soft! Cheerful and popular, overworked horses have also been known to fall asleep standing up. Just throw a blanket over them, they'll be fine. Compatible with Dog and Tiger.

    SHEEP (1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015) -- Sheep are shy, peaceful loners who love nothing more than mothering the heck out of somebody. This also means that they worry a lot, so if you have a Sheep for a parent, they'll freak out extra if they haven't heard from you lately. They just need a little reassurance to keep them warm and fluffy. Compatible with Pig and Rabbit.

    MONKEY (1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016) -- Monkeys are inventors and problem-solvers. They love facts and can get a little competitive; they can be the type who always needs to be right, and frankly they're somewhat vain. What they really need is to have some fun! Get laid, Monkeys! That's what Tom Hanks does when he's feeling low! Compatible with Rat and Dragon.

    ROOSTER (1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017) -- You might think a Rooster would be strutting around, waking people up far too early in the morning, but actually Roosters are neat, organized, conservative, and a little bit proud of themselves. Dolly Parton is a Rooster, which makes me wonder what's underneath all those sequins. Hmm. Compatible with Ox and Snake.

    DOG (1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018) -- Dogs can be, well, Dogs. Sure, they're loyal, fair, and unpretentious, but look out for those little white lies they tell you, girlfriend. They can be a little moody and have trouble finding true love unless they can stay in touch with their open-minded, affectionate side, and have regular baths to keep the fleas away. Compatible with Tiger and Horse.

    PIG (1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019) -- Wilbur! Babe! Pigs are the best. Always ready to help out a friend and never snobbish, a Pig will be happy to help you move that sofa, as long as she's properly thanked in return. A naive, gullible Pig will soon be your worst enemy if you take advantage. Glenn Close is a Pig. Remember Fatal Attraction? Don't mess with Pigs. Compatible with Rabbit and Sheep.

    Shiloh, this one is for you luv.

    Dragons:

    In the first hour, George welcomed Templar Knight and historian Mark Pinkham ( http://www.gnostictemplars.org/ ) for a discussion on dragons. A self-described descendant of the European Dragon Families, Pinkham revealed that those from such lineages are descended from some legendary dragon of the past and possess the ability to rule. A dragon is actually energy, he explained, noting how energy travels as a spiral in the form of a serpent. According to Pinkham, dragons are still here and certain people, like himself, the legendary sorcerer Merlin, and Native American Shamans, who have a karmic connection to them, can see these dragons in other dimensions. As Monday begins the Chinese Year of the Dragon, Pinkham commented that dragons show up at the end of every cycle. They are the guardians of wisdom and show the way to transformation, he noted. Pinkham also briefly spoke about the Knights Templar and how the true grail was the power of the dragon made manifest with in the knights themselves, to help them attain Gnostic awareness.
