Annual Forecast & Feng Shui Remedies for 2007 : Yin Red Fire Pig Year - Dragon Sign Chinese Zodiac

The Chinese Zodiac Astrology is ancient, interesting, accurate and loved by millions across the world. The Chinese Zodiac is based on cyclic concept of time : a cycle of 12 years, repeated again and again. The 12 Years are associated with 12 Celestial Animals : Rat (or Mouse on Mongoose), Ox (or Buffalo or Bull or Cow), Tiger, Rabbit (or Hare or Cat), Dragon, Snake (or Serpent), Horse, Goat (or Sheep or Ram), Monkey, Rooster (or Hen or Cock or Chicken or Phoenix), Dog and Pig (or Boar or Hog). The animal names occasionally differ with the Oriental Country they originate. The Chinese Yearly Horoscopes are basically built around these 12 Animal Signs.

Your Chinese Astrological Zodiac Animal Sign is directly based on the Chinese Lunar Year of Birth that you were born. The Chinese New Year is mobile and could start anywhere between 21st January and 20th February, depending upon the year. If your Date of Birth falls into any of the following Chinese Lunar Years, then, because you are born in the Year of the Dragon, you are symbolically identified by your Celestial Animal, the "Dragon" :

From 16 Feb 1904 to 03 Feb 1905

From 23 Jan 1928 to 09 Feb 1929

Enjoy the Annual Forecasts and learn about the suggested Feng Shui & Crystal Remedies that you may need for the coming "New Lunar Year 2007 : Ding Hai, the Year of the Yin Red Fire Pig" :

CAREER 2007 is a year of considerable promise and signals an upturn in your fortunes. You can finally see the rays of hope at the end of the dark tunnel. Take advantage of every single opportunity and derive mileage from your experience and capabilities. Remember to take the advice and support of your friends and colleagues. Team work will yield much better results. Hard work and perseverance will bring you success. External pressure and competition will surface but timely help from your benefactors will help you win them. Make sure you control your temper or you might end up disrupting some good interpersonal relationships. Beware of female back-stabbers. Keep your cool and be modest and humble about your success. If you are onto trading, travels, marketing, exports and imports, hotels and marriage halls, you will do much better than others. If you are a salaried employee, recognition will come your way with promotion and salary increment. But be alert and do not get involved in battles for influence or take sides in internal politics. If you wish to venture out on your own or in partnership, now is the right time. Display the statue or real photo of the Great Mentor Kuan Kung in your North West to get the best out of 2007. Attending training classes or refresher courses will greatly contribute to your future prospects. Keep your diaries and documents locked up in a safe; encrypt your computer files and assign a safe password and beware of enemies listening into your conversations secretly - you are likely to be a victim of information theft this year and suffer from deteriorated fame and reputation because of that.

MONEY Financially, an encouraging year with increase in income supplemented by commissions. Your investments will pay up. Surplus money will accumulate. Put a ban on your luxurious spending sprees and plan your budget well. Impose fiscal discipline on your bank accounts. Now is the time to reduce your borrowings (if you have any) and save up for buying assets in the future. Place a three-legged toad (opposite to your main door, but as if it is coming inside your home) to create a conducive atmosphere for buying assets. If you were born in 1976, you may get a remarkable windfall luck. If you were born in 1964, you could be hit by lawsuits this year.

HEALTH Most of you will face many health problems including high stress levels, skin allergies, insomnia, food poisoning, migraines, digestive and respiratory disorders. Females should watch out for problems related to sexual organs. If you are a female and in post-natal recuperation, you have to increase the immunity powers of your body. Avoid sexual promiscuity. If you are carrying over abdominal and gastrointestinal problems from last year, it could worsen this year. Accidents might happen during travels or in sports. Hang two large sized natural Chinese Sacred Gourd Wou-Lous : one near your main entrance and the other in your bedroom, on your headboard side. Keep a Black Tourmalene Crystal Tree near your bedside. If you were born in 1928, you might become light headed, weak and not in full control of your bodily functions. If you are a female born in 1964, you could be affected by gynecological ailments.

LOVE Excellent love luck with high levels of sexual appetite. A good year for marriage and child-bearing. Singles will get engaged and then get married within a short span of time. If you are married, you may make use of the intense sexual energy in the air to restrengthen your relationship to your spouse and build up a more harmonious equation. However refrain from indulging in extramarital affairs or else you will face severe penalties in near future. Install the icon of a Rooster in the South West of your bedroom and carry a set of 3 Qui-Yong coins with you always to discipline yourself. If you were born in 1964, you could face a serious love triangle problem.

STUDIES A good year for all those who are studying. But you need a higher level of motivation. Set yourself a challenge. A challenge that will be realistic as well as enjoyable too. Then you will accomplish. This is a year for acting on ideas. You could learn a new knowledge skill or take up a new social interest, for personal satisfaction. Maybe you will join a local society or arrange a meeting group for fellow enthusiasts. This will open up a new vista of opportunities and contacts which you will cherish in the years to come. If you are a female born in 1988, you will be immersed in Peach Blossom luck : do not lose your head or chastity, but concentrate only on studies. Install a Pagoda Tower in the North East of your study room.

Birthstone : Ruby Good Relationships with : Rat, Rooster and Monkey, for 2007 Conflicts with : Tiger Ox and Dog, for 2007 Polarity Force : More Yang Lucky Numbers : 3, 4, 5, 6, 15, 21, 34, 35, 36 and 45 Zodiac Protector : Puxian or Samantabhadra (Sanskrit)

A NOTE ABOUT REMEDIES :

Signs of Abundance and Money in Feng Shui

Ever wonder why there are so many quotes about Pennies? Oftentimes we are so busy in our day to day lives of trying to get everything accomplished on our ?to do? lists, we overlook the simple things. Many times we don?t see the significance in the little things that come our way because we don?t believe they are important.

How often have you looked down and seen a penny? And walked right by it? Because, after all, it?s only a penny and doesn?t really amount to anything. Yet some of you WILL bend down to pick up a quarter. Are you seeing these important signs for what they are?

It doesn?t matter the amount, be it a penny or a quarter, what you are coming across is sheer abundance. It?s likely if you walk right past that penny, a quarter will never materialize in your life; or more significant amounts, for that matter. We are ignoring what has been given to us.

A perspective relating to Feng Shui and Money (Wealth) is to recognize that every time we come across any amount, it is significant. It was put there for us to find, pick up and thank the universe for sending it to us. With the intention that more often then not, more will follow. We forget to be grateful sometimes and we forget that it is, truly, the ?little? things in life that add up and make us who and what we are.

A recent example of finding pure abundance came when I was outside blessing a building a client was looking to purchase a building. They wanted to put in a very different type of business from what had been there and even I couldn?t figure out how to deal with the two distinct energies they were trying to create. Their heart and souls were into the purchase of this place and as I was walking the grounds and doing an exterior blessing, I came across eight quarters which had been outside of the property, neatly stacked on top of one another.

A sign of abundance that they would do well there? You bet. I was excited to go back inside and tell them of my ?find.? And my client related that he had been finding a lot of change the last few weeks. He?d just found his new location and had a significant ?sign? that he would do well and prosper there.

He called me tonight, the extensive renovations were finally completed and I am excited to go back and see his new environment. And know that he found the place he was meant to have and created it to what it has become, although it was a challenge.

The next time you?re walking down the block and find a penny, stop and think. And instead of just passing it by, take a moment to stop, pick it up and send out blessings for the sign of abundance you might have passed over before.

Feng Shui For Widows And Divorcees

I am sure some of you may read the title and think, ?OK, this should be good; I will read it for entertainment and if I get more, all the better.?

The practice of feng shui uses the ancient Chinese art of Chi. Chi is energy. It has nothing to do with religion. There are many practitioners out there, all around the world. My purpose in writing this article is to share with you how I benefited from it. Allow me to start at the beginning.

A couple of months before my husband died, I came across an ad in the paper for a feng shui practitioner advertising her services. Interested, I decided to clip the ad out of the paper and put it aside until later. I had never practiced this art myself; however, I like others had read about it in various articles and was intrigued..

As I shared, when I saw the feng shui ad, my husband was dying. We both knew this fact. We had also just moved to a new town a few months earlier and into a new home. When we moved, all I could do was put the furniture in the house. My husband and I were in the fight of our lives?. for his life. (I hear your question: Why would you decide to move if your husband is dying? That answer, will have to come in another article.) So when I saw the ad a few months later, I knew I couldn?t act on it.

After my husband died I pulled the ad out of the drawer and called the practitioner. I needed distraction from my pain and getting the house in better shape was the recipe. Jan, the feng shui practitioner, was very nice on the phone and she asked lots of questions to get to know me. I learned a bit more about what this practice really entailed. I thought it was just about placing furniture in a room, in the best position for chi movement. (I thought I was smart because I knew the word and meaning of chi) I learned that Jan is a traditionalist when it comes to this art. She practices the Black Sect tradition. I had never heard of this or any other tradition. I thought it was all the same; little did I know.

We made an appointment for a consultation at my home. She let me know up front that this would take about 4 hours. WOW, I thought she would just come and make a few suggestions and be gone. Anyway, I can?t tell you everything she did because it would be unethical for me to do so. What I can tell you is that it was a wonderful experience. I implemented all of her suggestions. It took me a while to do so, but I got it all done.

Funny thing though, I started noticing shifts in my energy and what was happening in my life, as I would make the changes. A part of me thought the shifts were flukes, but that wasn?t the case. Being a skeptical person, I really started paying attention to the things that were happening to me. I also noticed that people who visited my home, rarely wanted to leave it. They told me that my home felt welcoming and relaxing. They leave their cares at the door. In fact, at times it is necessary for me to hint to a person that it is past my bed time or that I have to run an errand.

My original intent in having a practitioner use feng shui in my home was to simply receive help in putting my furniture in the best locations. What I got was so much more. I know this sounds strange but having my home in balance has helped me heal from losing my husband. It is my refuge and my place of peace. I travel a lot and I love the places I go. But, I am always happy when I enter my front door. It is as though the house welcomes me home.

If you are someone who has lost your spouse, you have to look at your environment when it comes to healing. There is a direct correlation between your environment and how well you heal. We all want to live vibrant robust lives and one of the best ways to do this is to balance your home. Is your environment safe; is it comfortable? How does your home make you feel? Have you ever thought about enhancing your healing process by enhancing your home?

I am not suggesting you go out and buy a book on feng shui. As I stated earlier, there are a few different schools of feng shui; and most of the books don?t make the distinctions. I have heard people say they get confused because one book tells them something and another says something else, concerning the same subject.

The best way to learn what your home needs is to hire a practitioner. These people have been to school to learn this art. Some have practiced for many years. There is no way you can read a book and know how to apply it?s suggestions to your situation.

I am a stickler for certifications, so make sure who ever you use is certified. Have them tell you the name of the school and do check them out before hiring them. Also make sure they have been in business for a while. Use your judgment and instincts. I have listed the name of the practitioner I used, on my web site. Feel free to contact her. She is available for phone consultations, if you are not in her area. Hiring a feng shui practitioner was one of the best decisions I made for myself.
