Happy Chinese New Year!

Funny, many Chinese new years celebrations included those floating lanterns, and phones lit up all over the planet with unidentified flying object reports the other day. Too funny. "It's unidentified, so it must be an ET invasion." ROTFLMAO.

Happy Chinese New Year of the Tiger!

Congratulations and be prosperous
culled from chiff.com & other sources

Chinese New Year, February 14
2010 is the Year of The Metal Tiger and is the 3rd year
in the current 12 year cycle of the Chinese Zodiac

Tiger years are traditionally associated with massive changes
& social upheaval. Therefore, 2010 is very likely to be a volatile
one both on the world scene, as well as on a personal level.
Tigers who thrive on chance and unpredictability are best suited to navigating the many upheavals predicted in the year ahead. Those compatible with Tiger - Dragon and Horse in particular - may also find 2010's erratic circumstances inspiring them to ever bolder action, and ultimate success. Those born under other signs will suffer, by degree, depending on how flexible they are to change. Those who can keep a steady hand on the helm may be shaken, but undeterred by the typically thunderous events foreseen in any Tiger year.

Chinese astrology animals are said to influence your luck for the year.

Your horoscopes for 2010 depends on which animal signifies the year you were born.

Because of cyclical dating, the beginning of the year can fall anywhere between late January and the middle of February. If a birthday falls before the Chinese New Year, see the previous year's animal -(e.g. Jan. 1, 1962 would be under 1961, an Ox year)

PLEASE NOTE these ideas are are not meant to substitute for your own good sense.
Remember, whatever the omens portend, you are the final master of your own fate.
Wishing you and yours a year of health and prosperity! Gung Hay Fat Choy!
