Here are the Annual Forecasts and suggested Fengshui & Crystal Remedies that you may need for the coming "New Year 2006 : Bing Xu, the Year of the Yang Red Fire Dog" :

CAREER :

An excellent year, whether you are working or self-employed. Sieze all initiatives and take offensive steps. All of your efforts and talents will be recognised. Many of you will achieve your targets. Those in partnership will peak. It is the right time to switch jobs or diversify in business. Be busy and remember that the results will be because of your hard work and good interpersonal relationships with everybody and not because of any windfall. Opportunities from foreign countries will knock at your doors. If you are onto exports or imports, you will flourish. If you are in fields like direct marketing, MLM, public relations and insurance, you will set new standards in the speed in which the customers can be covered. Many of you will receive timely help from influential people and make fast and powerful break-throughs. Your existing clients will make kindly referrals to you and your friendship network will expand. Your social status will increase, but be careful on spending too much energy and money on it. Enjoy your populartiy but let it not come in the way of your efficiency. Don’t let your success carry you away; learn to be humble and polite. Maintain self-control. If you gloat or allow jealousy to breed around you, back-stabbing could become a real possibility. Carry a set of 3 Qui Yong Coins, just in case your ego acts up.

MONEY :

Good wealth luck. Moneyflow will be pretty even. Some will get money from totally unexpected sources. Excellent lottery luck. Some of you will make fortunes in stock markets, with exclusive and timely tips from influential people. Good returns from your previous investments. If you are looking for big business loans, you will get them with ease. On the other hand, those of you having loans will repay with comfort. Unexpected money losses through friends, unethical socialising and large medical bills (due to poor health of family elders) are indicated. Large sums of money will also be spent on adding furniture or household comforts. Don’t risk money on any short term schemes. Invest only for substantial long term benefits.

HEALTH :

Do not allow your work pressure to dominate you. Relax, meditate and rest more. Stay away from alchohols and unhealthy sex. Some of you face the threat of sexually transmitted diseases. There could be some problems related to abdomen, limbs, blood pressure and viral infections. Bleeding from small accidents is indicated - donate blood. If you are already suffering from chronic diseases like high cholesterol level and hypertension, take good care of yourself. Elderly rabbits should have periodic health check-ups. Wearing a Malachite Crystal Pendant around your neck will be helpful.

LOVE :

Disharmony in the home front because of quarrels and fights. Spend more quality time with the family and pay more attention to your spouse. Expansions in your social circle and some of your new found friends will bring gossips into your household. Stop being too friendly with friends of opposite sex. Resist temptations with all your strength, at stake is not only your reputation, but also your family’s. Keep a Rose Quartz Crystal Ball or Egg at home to spread harmony energy. If you are a single, good chances of settling down.
