Thank you.

I'm really upset about the Chinese New Year. I am the horse and read that this year I will have 9 bad months out of twelve. I can't shake this prediction.
Help!

Happy Wu Zi! (Year of the rat). Cute gifs, everyone!

I used the little animated one to send to a friend. Not sure why the first two have pigs in them.

Think positively, Donna!

Last year was the year of the Pig. The first 2 e-cards were from last year. This is the year of the Rat, the 3rd Card.

As for the Chinese Astrology Donna, don't let it bother you. The astrology you read is in very general and may not apply specifically to you entirely. Each of the 12 animals (12-year cycle) has prefixes which based by the 5 elements of water, wood, metal, fire and earth.

ie: This year, the rat is preceiding by "Wu or Mau", which is the wood element. Find out which year you were born and which is the prefix for your year. It maybe that the year you were borned is one of the element that get along fine with "wood" and thus, many of the bad months may not be as bad as you think if not even at all bad.

If you want to believe in Astrology, then, follow it in details all the way through. Meaning, that you'd need to give an astrologer, your date, month, year, time and location of birth for the astrologer to see the exact path of your destiny.

Other than that, I'd recommend to read it for fun and not taking it in so literally and personally.

My dad was a great Astrologer and as much as I enjoyed listening to his explanation of things, he understood that I didn't want to learn of my future path. He respected that from everyone and never told unless we'd ask.

How great he was? Sadly, he predicted the year and cause of his death.

Truly, why would anyone want to know when he/she die? Just enjoy each day fully and remember this old saying from my country: "Within the bad, arises the good".

Remember when you made mistakes (bad)? How many things you've learned from it (good)?

Hope this makes you feel better Donna. Happy Lunar New Year Everyone!

ntt_hou,
This is so interesting. I found a great website and plugged in my birth info. I am the White Rat born in the year of the Green Horse. My element is Male Metal. Then I did a chart of my life with regards to luck. It seems very accurate so far. I always felt that my sixties would be the best time in my life.
