Welcome 2011 - The year of the Rabbit
2011 is the Year of the Rabbit, according to the Chinese Zodiac. The Chinese New Year begins on Thursday, February 3rd and will continue through Sunday, January 22, 2012.
The Rabbit is the fourth sign of the Chinese Zodiac , which consists of 12 animal signs. The Rabbit is noted as a lucky sign. It is said those born in the year of the Rabbit are friendly individuals who enjoy the company of a group of good friends. They are also good teachers, counselors and communicators.
According to Chinese tradition, the Rabbit brings a year where we can catch our breath and calm our nerves. It is also a time for negotiation, as long as you don't try to force issues, because if you do, you will ultimately fail. During this year, make it a goal to create a safe, peaceful lifestyle for yourself, so you will be able to calmly deal with any problem which may arise.
To gain the greatest benefits from this year, focus on home, family, security, diplomacy and your relationships with women and children.
One little known fact about the Rabbit, is that the Rabbit is the symbol of the Moon, while its counterpart is the Peacock, the symbol of the Sun. Together, these two animal signs signify the start of day and night, or the Yin and Yang of life. During this year, anyone making requests for wishes to be fulfilled are certain to get what they want as the wish-granting aspect of the Sun and the Moon combined is multiplied.
At Cascade Acupuncture Center wish for you the very best during this Year of the Rabbit!
