February 3 will begin in China's Spring Festival, better known as the Chinese New Year. The year 2011 will be the year of the Rabbit!
The rabbit is a symbol of Chinese worship of the moon where, according to legend, a live rabbit. Also according to traditional Chinese astrology, the rabbit is reserved, retrospective, thoughtful and lucky. The Year of the Rabbit will be without doubt remarkable for the tranquility it offers. It seems very unlikely that we are witnessing great upheavals during a year of the Rabbit ... Time will tell! After the year of the Rat, the beef, and the year of the Tiger, here is a year when " no situation will extend beyond the length of a rabbit's tail " after a former Chinese proverb.
Zodiac Year of the Tiger leaves and enters the year of the Rabbit (hare or cat according to the beliefs). Following years, establishing the date of entry into a new calendar (while both lunar and solar) varies between 21 January and 20 February. Each animal nature of the 12 signs associated with it is more or less decided on the basis of the description that accompanies it, namely water, fire, earth, wood or metal. In 2011, the associated element is metal.
The Chinese Zodiac consists of a set of 12 signs associated 12 animals (rat, buffalo or ox, tiger, rabbit or hare, snake, dragon, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, pig or bear). Each turn and a cyclical period of about 12 months, they are allegedly influencing the behavior of men. In principle, these signs come in a situation when the transition to Chinese New Year, which until the Lantern Festival two weeks later, marks the beginning of festivities devoted to the spring. In China, this transition time is the day the new moon in the sky of Beijing.
What a contrast with the previous year! Some advice ...
Year of Rabbit is remarkable for the tranquility it offers. The spirits are appeased. The revolution is over! Social reforms, it can wait! The heroes are tired and are now taste the sweetness of life. It is unlikely that we can attend major upheavals in one year of the Rabbit (between us, if the Egyptians want a revolution, they must do it very quickly ...).
Social life Will Expand unusual. cocktails, receptions, parties and openings will succeed at a breathless pace. Arts clubs will form even in the most remote villages. We think of to finally enjoy new poetry, music and painting (ah, that's fine). Give your heart to joy at the revival. Accept invitations to your friends receive as often as you can. This will help strengthen the friendly ties existing or create new ones. The warmth will delight you and you immunize against the gloom and despondency. Correspond as much and do not forget to send a small card or a quick note to wish happy birthday or happy anniversary to all those who are close to your heart (see the blog and why the cards on sale: http://mudita-creations-carterie.blogspot.com/ ). Often call your parents and your knowledge to talk about everything and nothing.
Indulge as an artistic hobby. Rabbit will help you overcome the initial difficulties repulsive. Of course, you will never become a great artist if you are not particularly good and you do not give you back. But is it absolutely necessary to reach the summits of art to draw satisfaction? No! Then learn to paint and experience the joy of handling the brush. Write poems, even if only to recite in front of your friends at an intimate evening. And why do not you look at that beautiful poetic flights in your love letters? And why you do not learn to play the guitar so that you can express your feelings so poignant as the window of your elected (e)? You will find wonderful life if you appear under the guise of poetry. And this appearance, you can give him.
Year of the Rabbit will also be conducive to the reign of justice , the Rabbit is, for some unknown reasons, combined with the judges ... This is precisely the time to conduct a comprehensive judicial reform in which all countries of the world feel the need. The lawyers will prosper. But watch out for suspicious activity more or less likely that will not pass unnoticed or unpunished!
