What the Year of the Snake holds in store for you
Welcome to the Year of the Snake
.....
The Water Rat’s thoughts could concern almost any area of his life, including the way he would like his career to develop, a particular skill or interest he would like to make more of, his accommodation (possibly including relocating) and/or some personal aspirations. No matter what he may be hoping to achieve, by giving thought to what he wants, making enquiries and taking those all-important first steps, he can set important wheels in motion. This is a year for planning, not delay.
Throughout the year, it is important that the Water Rat discusses his thoughts with others, especially in his home life, where he will be particularly grateful for the support of family members. When considering future plans, he can receive much useful help and encouragement from those around him and should not be reticent in asking for advice or assistance. During the year there will be also be some situations that require careful planning. These could include arranging a family gathering, helping a family member to move or starting ambitious domestic plans. Again, good communication and co-operation will be essential. In many Water Rat households, there could also be family news to celebrate and chances to travel late in the year.
