To be honest, I'm not too familiar with Chinese Astrology. I'm more into Western Astrology. That being said, the Year of the Horse is upon us, and curiosity got the better of me, so I investigated the matter a little further...
It would appear that the Horse is a fiery creature, and the fact this is the Year of the Wooden Horse only adds fuel to the fire. So we're advised to be a strong rider in control of the horse, and when driving, we must leave our anger and frustration on the passenger seat! It's not going to be an easy year for negotiations and compromise, as people will tend to stick to their principles and stand firm! So unfortunately, it is going to be a fast year, full of conflicts.
Not everything in life is a race. You need to think about how your start, how you jump over a few hurdles, and how quickly you want to get past that finishing post. Strategy and a plan-of-action for your endeavours will be important this year. People engaged in the fire or wood industries will do very well this year. Not so good for the property market in the first six months. It will remain low, so if planning to sell, be patient and hold out until the second half of the year when the property market will rise again.
Getting married this year? Oops...the Chinese believe it is not an auspicious year for marriage. It will be interesting to see how many Chinese marriages take place this year, as they are even more superstitious than me. But I'm not sure how seriously I would take that. The last time we had the Chinese year of the Wood Horse was back in 1954 - 60 years ago. That was the year my parents got married, and they enjoyed 58 good years together, until dad's death last year. So don't be put off! I find the Chinese astrology a bit too general.
Apparently the Horse doesn't like the rat - doesn't trust the rat, which means 2014 is not a favourable year for those born in the year of the Rat - who wants to hear news like that? Well as long as the rat keeps things out in the open I guess that would help... It promises to be a good year for us Roosters, as the Horse is a farm animal, and so is the rooster. We roosters need to keep the noise levels down, and not be too afraid of the large imposing horse. Hmm...wonder how I'll do that?
The Horse is most compatible with the tiger, sheep and dog, so people born in those years should have an auspicious year. Since it is a wooden horse year with a strong influence of Fire and Earth, people with lots of fire and earth in their charts should also do well.
The bottom line is pay attention to what you are doing this year, apply due diligence and caution in business, especially real estate. Present yourself with grace and dignity, as the Horse is a graceful animal, and one of the most popular of the Chinese animals. Don't be too brash or showy. If you push too hard, you'll annoy the horse - and you wouldn't want to do that, would you? It's a year that favours those with a cool, calm head about them. Be open to compromise...Do you think you can handle that? Hope so. A lump of sugar will do wonders too. The horse is a fairly straight forward animal. I think I can relate to it more than a Dragon or a Tiger. Hope so!
Happy Travels on your horse this year and Yee Haw!
Love,
