    Your Luck Cycle In The Earth Rat Year

    By Marco Chong

    The Earth Rat year starts officially on 4th February, 1901 hours. What does this year have in store for you? Discover it all in this article.

    Rat: Born 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996

    The Rat will have a great year in 2008. Career prospects look good. You will meet important allies who will assist you greatly in your career. If you are running a business, you might meet a very good business partner who will take your business to the next level. As long as you are willing to work hard, success is almost guaranteed, with things working in your favour.

    The next highlight is your wealth luck. This year, you will find that it is easier for you to save money and accumulate wealth.

    Health wise, look out for cuts and try to avoid working at high places. You might fall and hurt yourself easily. Be very careful when climbing ladders. Another thing to look out for is backstabbers and vile characters around you.

    Romance luck is not favorable. You may find it, but it will not last. I highly encourage you to spend more time and effort on your career. Romance luck will improve next year.

    Ox: Born 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997

    Compared to the challenging year 2007, this year, the Ox can breathe a sigh of relief. Things will start to look up this year. Your career will take off. You will meet some influential friends and partners who will assist you in your career. You will be able to turn obstacles into success. Go all out for it!

    This year, personal relationships take a positive turn. Be it friendships or love relationships, the Ox will be very popular this year. I encourage you to make use of this time to foster important relationships, especially pertaining to your career. Speaking of romance luck, this is a good year to get married. Singles will find their ideal partner this year.

    Health wise, this year, you must look out for your health as the sickness star is in your sign. Exercise regularly and stay happy at all times. Do not be stubborn; heed the advice of your loved ones. Take time to socialize more and you will be able to stay in a good mood. The Ox tends to be a workaholic. Remember to relax and go for regular medical checkups.

    Tiger: Born 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998

    The Tiger will have a challenging year. The most important thing to look out for is losing money or something valuable to you. Wealth luck is quite bad. You may find yourself spending on things which do not benefit you. This will be a year of changes. You might change your job, move house or migrate to another country.

    Career wise, guard everything you have. Play defensive instead of offensive. The Tiger loves to conquer. But this year, you must lie low. Do not give your enemies a chance to attack by spreading yourself too thin. Another important point is to avoid quarrels and don't offend anyone.

    Health wise, there are three unfavorable stars in your chart. Do give yourself plenty of rest, and remember, an illness is easily cured at an early stage. See a doctor if you need to.

    Romance luck takes a downturn this year. It will be a boring year for romance. Do not rush things when looking for a love partner. Be wary of people who take advantage of your situation. Keep a cool mind when dealing with matters of the heart. Be patient and 2009 will be a good year for romance.

    Rabbit: Born 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999

    Overall, this is a good year for the Rabbit. The main highlight of this year is romance. You have two romance stars in your chart this year. There will be a high chance for marriage for those who are attached. Singles are highly likely to find their ideal love partners this year. However, there will also be flirts and flings along the way. Be wary of flirts and flings ruining your life.

    This year, your career soars. You will find it very easy to progress. Wealth luck is also favorable this year. You can look forward to a stable financial year.

    Be wary of human relations this year. There are backstabbers who will try to spread false rumors about you. Try to make peace with everyone this year. This will not be a problem for the diplomatic Rabbit.

    For health issues, due to the strong influence of the romance stars, be wary of health issues relating to gynaecology. This affects the females more than the males. Males, you need to be wary of cutting yourself accidentally.

    Dragon: Born 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000

    The Dragon's good luck from last year continues this year. You have three lucky stars in your sign this year. Money will come to you easily this year, and you will easily accumulate wealth. Career wise, you will form strategic alliances who will bring you to the next level of success. I highly encourage you to go all out for your career.

    Romance wise, this is a year of confusions. You will find yourself having mood swings over matters of the heart. This year, you need to keep a low profile when it comes to romance. Do not allow matters of the heart to affect your progress in your career.

    This year, health is also an issue, mostly caused by mood swings. You need to relax more, stay optimistic and do not overwork yourself. Also be wary of accidents.

    Snake: Born 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001

    Before I start, I want to congratulate you! You are the luckiest sign among all the 12 animals this year. With 4 lucky stars in your chart this year, it will be a smooth sailing year. You will be able to achieve the things you set out to do, and you will progress very smoothly.

    This year, you will be able to perform and get all the credits. The spotlight will be on you. Although you are having a good time, remember to remain humble and do not offend anyone with your sharp tongue.

    Romance wise, this is a good time to look for a love partner if you are single. You should be able to find someone suitable easily.

    Health wise, be wary of nervous breakdowns. Try to relax and be calm in everything you do. Once you start rushing, problems arise. Another piece of advice I have for you is not to think too much over trivial matters. No matter what, just stay happy.

    Horse: Born 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1980, 2002

    The Horse needs to respond and react to changes quickly this year. This is going to be a challenging year for you. Everything that you plan may not come out as you wish. It can be very frustrating and your mood will not be good most of the time.

    This is a time to lie low and think carefully about your strategy. Plan and plan and keep reviewing your plans. Do not take things easy, make sure you consider all the possible outcomes of a decision you make. Do not rush into things recklessly.

    It is best to keep your expectations low and to count your blessings. When things do not go your way, it is easy to get frustrated and angry, thereby forgetting about the things you already have. Remember not to take anything for granted this year. Be on your toes at all times.

    There will be a lot of changes to your life this year. You might move house, change your job, or get out of a relationship. Speaking of romance and relationships, be more understanding towards your partner. Avoid quarrels if you can. Be wary of breakups. Singles will have a difficult time looking for an ideal partner.

    My advice this year is to stay around those born in Sheep year and Dog year. They will have you make it through this challenging year.

    Sheep: Born:1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003

    This is a good year for the Sheep to meet new friends and foster new relationships. It is also a good time to spread goodwill and do more charity works. There will be some obstacles this year, but overall, it will still be a good year for you.

    Career luck is very favorable. You will make strategic alliances with influential people. Your career will progress smoothly. Another highlight of this year is your wealth luck. You are the only sign among all the 12 animals with the strong wealth in your sign this year.

    Things to look out for this year are backstabbers and those who spread rumors to tarnish your reputation. Be careful of being dragged into something which is not your fault. Be cautious when dealing with people this year. Recognize who are your friends and who are your enemies.

    Health wise, be wary of mood swings, pessimism and joint illnesses. Romance luck is favorable. Singles will meet their ideal partner while married couples might have another child. Married couples may also want to go for a second honeymoon.

    Monkey: Born:1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004

    After a mediocre 2007, things are starting to work out this year. The Monkey will find this a harvest year. All the hard work you put in during the previous years will start to bear fruit this year. This year you will also gain recognition for your efforts.

    Things to look out for are hidden backstabbers. However, they can't do much damage due to the influence of the lucky stars. Look out for fines as well. Drive carefully and do not break the traffic rules.

    Romance luck is very good. After going through a lonely 2007, Monkey men can start to enter the romance field again. This is a good time for singles to find their ideal partner. But do not play with others' feelings as things might backfire. Health wise, nothing much to worry about. You are in a state of good health this year.

    This will be a good year to perform and excel in your career, but there will be obstacles along the way. Be ready for the obstacles and overcome them accordingly. You may find that you put in a lot of effort, but the result is not up to your expectations. The obstacles will quite likely be vile characters who try to slow down or stop your progress.

    Health wise, do blood tests and medical checkups regularly to prevent complications. Overall, this year is more favorable for females than males.

    Dog: Born:1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006

    This is another good year for the Dog. The good luck from last year continues into this year. The highlights for this year are increased wealth, progress in career, extra marital affairs and looking out for your family members' health.

    The Pig had a nervous and hectic year last year. This year, things are going to be better. The highlight of this year is your romance luck. This year, you will tend to emphasize more on romance due to the influence of the romance star in your chart. Pertaining to romance, the females have more advantage than the males this year. If you are looking for a boyfriend or a husband, this is the right time. But beware of competitors. However, do not worry, you will still emerge victorious.

    The area to look out for is your career. Be wary of backstabbers in your office and workplace. You may be blamed for something which you are not responsible for. There will be a lot of office politics this year.

    Health wise, you might find that your mind is not clear and you can't think properly. Have ample sleep and rest.
