Читать книгу Your Chinese Horoscope 2017: What the Year of the Rooster holds in store for you - Neil Somerville, Neil Somerville - Страница 28

The Rooster year offers great possibilities for the Fire Rat, and with determination and a willingness to make the most of it, he can not only help his present situation but also gain skills and experience he can build on in the future. The benefits can be considerable and far-reaching.

On a personal level, the year is rich in possibility, with affairs of the heart likely to be special. For unattached Fire Rats there will be excellent chances to meet others and, if experiencing a change in circumstances, to build up a new social circle. Someone met now could soon become very special. However, while the aspects are promising, the Fire Rat should be careful not to rush. If he allows time for each person to get to know the other better, the relationship can often be built on a stronger foundation. Quite a few Fire Rats will find true love this year, and those whose romances flounder can soon see someone else entering their life. The Rooster year is capable of surprising developments and the Fire Rat will be learning a lot about himself, others and the mysteries and glorious wonders of love. Late February, March, June, August and December could be significant months both personally and socially.

With his enquiring nature, the Fire Rat has diverse interests and over the year will derive considerable pleasure from sharing these with his friends. In addition, whether attending parties, concerts or sporting events or visiting attractions, he will enjoy the variety and the fun times the year offers. On a social level, this promises to be a busy time, and any Fire Rats who start the year despondent will find that by going out more and giving themselves the chance to meet others, they can greatly improve their situation. Shy and retiring Fire Rats, take careful note and involve yourself more. Your efforts will make a noticeable difference.

For Fire Rats with a partner, the Rooster year can again be special. There will be plans to work towards, and even though finances may sometimes be stretched, with the Fire Rat’s resourcefulness, a great deal can still be accomplished. Family and friends can be supportive, and luck too can play a part, especially in advancing key plans.

For the many Fire Rats in education this will be a busy year. There will sometimes be difficult concepts to master and the Fire Rat will need to remain focused. What he learns now will be an important platform to build on in the future and some Fire Rats will now make career choices or be alerted to subject areas that suit their strengths. This year can open up options which have long-term significance.

In view of the importance of the present time, the Fire Rat should avail himself of the support available to him. If he is worried over aspects of his studying or has another problem, he should talk to those with the knowledge to assist. This is not a time to keep anxieties to himself.

Fire Rats in work can make important headway. Many will be offered training and additional responsibilities, while some will decide on change and/or seek better remuneration elsewhere. This is no year to stand still. Good progress can be made and prospects enhanced. April, May, September and October could see encouraging developments.

Fire Rats seeking work will find that researching vacancies, finding out about the duties involved and stressing their (relevant) interests and experience may well lead to the offer of a position. Determined effort and the Fire Rat’s enthusiasm can be an effective combination.

All Fire Rats will, however, need to be careful in money matters. Rush, risk or carelessness could lead to possible losses. Good financial management is required and if in doubt about any matter, the Fire Rat would do well to seek clarification.

However, while resources may be limited, if possible the Fire Rat should take advantage of any travel opportunities that come his way. Visits to new areas and attractions can be highly enjoyable.

Although the Fire Rat keeps himself active, he should also pay some attention to his well-being. Pushing himself without adequate rest or ignoring the quality of his diet could leave him lacking his usual energy or susceptible to minor ailments. Fire Rats, take note and look after yourselves.

Overall, this promises to be a full year for the Fire Rat. At times the pressures will be considerable, particularly when he has decisions to take. However, by rising to the challenges (and seeking assistance if need be), he can prove himself in many ways. His gains this year will require effort but be considerable. His personal life can also be a source of much happiness. Some Fire Rats may, though, have moments of heartache but, as the Fire Rat will discover, the Rooster year is rich in experience and he will take a great deal from it.
