Annual Forecast & Feng Shui Remedies for 2007 : Yin Red Fire Pig Year - Dog 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 Dog, you are symbolically identified by your Celestial Animal, the "Dog" :

CAREER 2007 is a transition year after you offended TaiSui last year and had many bad turns. The clouds of negative energies still linger but things will start changing from May onwards. You will face increased workloads and stricter time schedules. But with your inherent abilities of co-operating with others, drawing from your inner strengths and with good team spirits, you will be able to take steps forward. Obstacles will still haunt you every step of the way, but you will deliver with the help of others. Seize every single opportunity, however small or big and make use of them. You will assume many new responsibilities, make many new friends and helpful contacts. However, do not be impatient but be tactful. You will be adventurous and would like to explore unknown territories and pioneer new products. This year, males will perform much better than the females. If you have anything to do with organising happy events like marriages, birthday parties, etc., you will do very well. If you are employed and have decided to stick to your employer with loyalty you will be rewarded; if you migrate to another job, you will get better opportunities but with extra workloads. Install the statue or a genuine photo of Green Tara to tide over the many obstacles.

MONEY Money is somewhat stable and definitely better than last year, but still not sufficient enough to support you in style. You will be forced to make a lean budget and adhere to it strictly. Short term financial schemes will attract you but be wary lest you loose all. You do not have any windfall luck this year, so avoid any type of gambling. Resist the urge to take loans to spend luxuriously, but rather wait for better times. Make a thorough check when you have to sign any financial papers or you will regret it later.

HEALTH Tiredness, fatigue, depression and lack of sleep from work pressures will be frequent. Frequently indulging in party foods and beverages will bring gastrointestinal problems and digestive disorders. Some of you have the extraordinary luck of getting a short-lived weird disease that no one has ever heard of. To suck out the sick energies prevailing, hang a natural original Chinese Hu-Lu by your bedside. If you were born in 1946, you will be accident prone and could injure your joints or muscles below the hips; you might also lose your life partner. If you were born in 1958, you should pay attention to your blood pressure. If you were born in 1970, drive safely and strictly follow the rules of the road.

LOVE Male singles will enjoy good romance luck - many of them will marry and settle down. Female singles will continue their fruitless search for stable relationships. In general, singles should strongly resist impulsiveness or might end up with unwanted pregnancy. If you are married, your love luck is still quite high, but volatile and unstable. Some of you could fix high and unpractical expectations and your mate might not be in a position to satisfy you. Caution : Be realistic and control your sexual urges - it is easy this year to have affairs and undergo illegal relationships but the final results will be devastating, later. Good marital bliss could also be ruined by gossips brought in by third party raiders. Display the statues of Combined Dragon & Phoenix and a Rooster in the South West of your bedroom.

STUDIES Self created moods, pressure for getting into upper ranks and lack of confidence keep increasing your tensions. Do not take any crucial decisions without taking advice from elders or parents or teachers. Relax and attend meditation or yoga classes. For the first time in your life, a fatal encounter might insert a romantic crush in you. Do not take it seriously, for nothing stable will come out of it.

Birthstone : Ruby Good Relationships with : Tiger, Rabbit and Horse, for 2007 Conflicts with : Dragon, Goat and Rooster, for 2007 Polarity Force : More Yin Lucky Numbers : 1, 4, 5, 9, 10, 14, 19, 28, 30, 41, 45 and 54 Zodiac Protector : Amida or Amithabha (Sanskrit)

Pa-Kua Feng Shui Basics

FENG SHUI BASICS

Feng Shui (literally "Wind and Water" in Chinese), is all about balance and harmony between us and our environment. Just like the Yin and Yang energies, Feng Shui is about balance. Where there is light, there will always be darkness; where there is fire, there will always be water; and so forth.

Feng Shui teaches that every individual interacts differently to their environment. Sometimes, a particular environment - such as a house or office - is so suited to you that you find that everything in your life is great. However, if you have troubled relationships or financial woes, it is quite likely that there is some discord or imbalance between yourself and your environment, manifesting in your daily life.

By subtly modifying your environment, you will be able to restore this balance, and consequently improve your life. Modifying your environment can be as simple as changing the angle or position of your work desk, or by buying Feng Shui items such as mandarin ducks and placing them in proper locations in your home or office.

There are many systems of authentic classical Feng Shui. This article describes the Xuan Kong (pronounced "Shu-en Kong") system. Xuan Kong (literally "Mysterious Void" in Chinese) is a complete system which includes complicated formulae to calculate optimal positioning and composition of an environment.

EIGHT MANSION (PA-KUA) SCHOOL OF FENG SHUI

There are a few sub-schools within the Xuan Kong system, including the popular Flying Stars school. The descriptions in this article are based on the Eight Mansion school, also known as the Pa-Kua school. In the Pa-Kua technique, the compass is divided into eight directions, each of which is depicted by a trigram. Each of these directions have different significance. For example, one of the Pa-Kua directions is the personal or relationship direction, which will be of the most interest to someone with troubled relationships. Furthermore, the significance of each direction differs for each individual.

To find out how each Pa-Kua direction affects you personally, you will need to calculate your Kua Number. You can do this by using the Kua Calculator at:

http://www.mandarin-ducks.com/dragongate.html

The calculator will provide you with your Kua Number, and more importantly, what each Pa-Kua direction means to you. In short, four of those directions will be positive and favorable to you, while the other four will have negative connotations for you.

The eight Pa-Kua directions can be briefly summarized as follows:

Sheng Chi (Life Generating) - This Pa-Kua direction is your prosperity and wealth direction. You would focus on this direction if you are interested in financial strength.

Tien Yi (Heavenly Doctor) - This direction is your health direction. You would focus on this direction if you are interested in health and physical matters.

Nien Yin (Relationships) - This direction is your relationships direction. You would focus on this direction if you have troubled relationships and would like to improve your love life and/or your marriage.

Fu Wei (Stability) - This direction is your stability and knowledge direction. You would focus on this direction if you want to achieve tranquility and knowledge.

Ho Hai (Mishaps) - The first negative Pa-Kua direction is your accident or misfortune direction. You would focus on this direction if you want to reduce unforeseen accidents or loss.

Wu Gwei (Five Ghosts) - This direction is your financial loss direction. You would focus on this direction to prevent theft and other financial woes.

Liu Sha (Six Killings) - This direction is your "evil" direction. You would focus on this direction to ward off malevolence against you.

Chueh Ming (Total Loss) - This direction is your loss and death direction. You would focus on this direction to reduce physical loss and death around you.
