New Chinese Year of the Dog With Much Change Begins in 2018

The Chinese Year of the Dog begins on 16th February 2018. Each animal in the Chinese zodiac is divided into elements with slightly different characteristics - this new year is an Earth Dog. As a yang year it will be eventful with many changes everywhere, especially with national security and in the Middle East and Asia. Be careful, but follow your instincts. Good year for hard workers.

Dog People

Dogs are intelligent, honest, reliable, helpful and loyal - valuing friendships and harmony with good ethics. They listen, but worry a lot and can be stubborn, irritable and antisocial. Although good savers, dogs aren't materialistic.

If you are a Dog

An unlucky year for dog people, but not terrible. Be careful of accidents, your money, and avoid risk at work. Look after health, and be cautious of scams and in business, adapting to change rather than following routine.

Love may be bad this year, however don't change plans. Your best partner is a Tiger or Rabbit person, and worse another Dog or Dragon. Ideal careers are those in trust serving others, like a police officer, doctor, priest or nurse.

Predictions for this Year of the Dog

This will be a turbulent period of change, but for the better. Although dog years usually bring growth, major institutions may collapse and capital markets adjust. However, there will be new ways to help the poor and discourage unhealthy diets. Materialism will be out of fashion. Keep the status quo or move slowly forward.

This is a good year to consolidate, but change your home or job, and habits like smoking. The rich and poor will be more balanced and America could intervene in the Middle East defeating Islamic State. The US will prosper, but problems in Europe spark the end for the EU.
