Annual Forecast & Feng Shui Remedies for 2007 : Yin Red Fire Pig Year - Rooster 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 Rooster (or Hen or Cock or Chicken or Phoenix), you are symbolically identified by your Celestial Animal, the "Rooster (or Hen or Cock or Chicken or Phoenix)" :

CAREER An year of recovery. While 2007 will be better than 2006, you still have many obstacles in your path. You lack enthusiasm, will not feel like working hard and would slack off frequently. If you stay disillusioned with last year and the current lack of progress, you will fail. Pull yourself together, seek advice and help from your boss, mentor or parents to regain your status. Take the initiatives boldly, be tolerant with colleagues, follow your benefactor's suggestions, pursue your path with determination and you will see your luck evolving slowly but steadily. Competition and work pressure will pile up, but proceed as planned with total focus and concentration. Your personal skills and strengths will be put to test in hostile environments. There will be last minute hitches. Some of you will even expand business and venture abroad too. Voluntary changes will open up more doors. If self-employed, think of diversifying. If you are employee, consider career switch or job change or internal departmental transfer. But promotions could bring more severe responsibilities. Do not get into arguments or disputes in the office. Avoid confrontation with your enemies and ignore rumours. Display the statue of the Mentor Kuan Kung in the North West for protection and timely guidance. A good year to expand your social networking and add to your many friends. If you are in the creative industries like drawing, painting, dance, arts, poetry, professional writing, etc., you will do better than others. In 2007, you are being "eyed" by certain shady, scheming characters - display the icon or genuine photo of the White Tiger, for your personal safety.

MONEY A strangled inflow of money is further depleted by unexpected and unwanted expenses. Do not make impulsive and large purchases. Be prudent and plan an advanced budget to get you through these testing times. Do not indulge in shortcuts to earn quick money - you will end up in legal problems. Invest more on Health Insurance Policies. Stay away from speculative schemes and gambling - you hardly have any windfall luck this year. Be careful when signing documents and do not act as guarantor for anybody. Keep a set of Dragon & Phoenix Coins along with a set of "Four Guardian Kings" Coins with your main cash.

HEALTH Worries will spoil your mental health. Relax, unwind and meditate. Seek medical help immediately if you get any of these problems : microbic and viral infections, respiratory problems, persistent cough, sinus, aching body or spinal discomfort. An elderly family member might pass away. If you were born in 1969, have a thorough eye checkup. If you were born in 1945, you may have to undergo surgery this year. If you are a female born in 1969 or a female born in 1981, you could face gynaecological problems. If you were born in February, you are prone to injuries in the limbs, tendons and bones.

LOVE Not a good year to marry. Singles should extend their courtship period patiently through to next year. Married Roosters, while being alert, should also continue to trust their spouse and ignore the gossips. Resist the temptation of unfaithfulness. If your personality is challenged by your life partner, assert your independence without domination. To avoid pessimism and depression from disrupting marital harmony, consider shifting your home or devote fully to raising a new garden. Place a pair of Pink Mandarin Ducks in the South West of your bedroom.

STUDIES Total focus and sustained efforts are needed to make even the modest progress. Do not resort to short-cuts or cheating during exams : you will end up disgracing yourself and face stiff penalties. Wear an Amethyst Crystal Pendant around your neck.

Birthstone : Topaz Good Relationships with : Ox, Snake and Dragon, for 2007 Conflicts with : Rabbit, Dog and Rooster, for 2007 Polarity Force : More Yang Lucky Numbers : 1, 5, 6, 12, 15, 16, 24 and 51 Zodiac Protector : Bu Dong Ming Wang or Ahalanatha Vidyaraja (Sanskrit)

Feng Shui Your Patio, Family Room or Office with Portable Waterfalls

In Chinese the words, feng shui, literally mean wind and water. For centuries the Chinese have used feng shui to advance the quality of life, since they have long observed that some environs are better than others. Feng shui in the present day has developed into a fine art used to improve fortune and happiness through the adjustment of layout and orientations of workplaces and houses and is gaining recognition in the West.

Bring flow into your existing career by adding a water feature near your home's front entrance. Whether or not you're currently working, an indoor waterfall with water flowing into the house, not out, will generate a torrent of opportunities for you. Placing pictures of moving water - such as oceans with rolling waves or tumbling Amazonian waterfalls - in that spot will achieve the same fabulous feng shui home decor objectives.

Water is symbolic of wealth. Having water near your home will influence you. Water that meanders and flows gently will give you a sense of flow in your life. Gently flowing clear water represents a consistent flow in your life - flow of chi and money. Along with prosperity, this sense of flow brings more relaxation, that "go with the flow" feeling. Remember that water is essential to our lives and our bodies are part water.

When correctly placed, a six-tiered waterfall is among the most powerful wealth enhancers in the garden and home. It should be placed in the southwest inwards direction to invite positive energies. The southwest is described as the place of indirect spirits or elements and water in this sector of the room or garden will harness a lot of wealth/luck. The waterfall's size must be in balance or proportionate to the garden or room and must not overwhelm it.

A waterfall should never be placed in bedrooms. The bedroom is a "yin" place and the waterfall will contradict this. Waterfalls and fountains are strongly recommended for commercial buildings, i.e. inside hotel lobbies and outside the building, especially in front. If you're placing a waterfall in your family room, make sure the room is big enough to accommodate the waterfall along with the regular furniture.

The ideal time to apply feng shui rules is when you're designing a new building: 1. Consider employing a feng shui advisor to assist you in understanding the rules 2. Look for a parcel of land that's flat and generally rectangular 3. Plan a home that's square or rectangular 4. Avoid sharp projections, and make the building regular in shape 5. Add an entrance hall to the floor plan 6. Floor-to-ceiling windows placed in bedrooms allow too much chi to escape, so avoid them 7. Choose smooth surfaces for interior walls 8. Design a curving walkway to your front door
