Peoplealways like to know what will happen in the new year.Below I have tried to work out some general predictions foreach animal sign for the year. Maybe it will help you.RatOxTigerRabbitSomeone will take your advantage. Be carefuldriving. You will also meet new friends.This year will bring kind of a hard time. Your friendmay harm you.

Someone will help you.OpposingSpecial TriangleConclusionAll these predictions are not one hundred percent correct.There is a certain kind of energy that will happen generally forthese animals. We are all in a cycle. The twelve animals forma big circle. The year of the Goat/Sheep is the year and so willattract the most light from outside, but other animals whichare nearby will benefit, such as Snake, Horse, Monkey andRooster.However, all these animals form a certain bond tohelp out each other, like a family. For instance, Pig, Rabbitand Goat/Sheep all form a special triangle and so all will bestrong. The opposite animal to Goat is the Ox. This relationshipis like in the evening where there is less light. Therefore, thisis the weaker animal in the year 2003.It is the same as our life. We are in a circle:- sometimesgood, sometimes bad. Everytime we are in the bad situation,we should learn how to prepare ourselves in the future to begood, care more and help other people. Everytime you helpothers, they owe you and so eventually they will also help youin return.It is the same when you are in a good position, it iseasy to put down others and not be so considerate, and maybethink you deserve that good luck. This is a bad situation,because when your luck runs out, all your enemies will comeforward to attack you. Because we are always in a circle,sometimes we are in luck, sometimes we are in bad luck.Keeping good friends with people, helping out others, then itdoes not matter what circumstances you are in, either good orbad luck. In this way of thinking and acting, then every yearwill a good year for youBy Michael Tsepage 20 Qi Magazine Jan/Feb 2003
