The Sunday Section: Chinese New Year

End of January and another new year! We enter the Year of the Rooster; the Fire Rooster to be exact.

In Chinese astrology, the Fire Rooster is known as the ‘Dawn Awakener’… which, to be honest, roosters are. 2017 is also a ‘yin’ year, which is the energy of the divine feminine; it’s all about trusting and following your instincts. This combination points to 2017 being a year of awakenings and forward momentum. After last year’s uncertainty and drama, thanks to the cheeky Fire Monkey, this year holds a better chance of achieving your vision.

Apart from being practical and methodical, fire roosters are also confident, honest, hardworking and punctual, always eager to learn new things. So, with that sort of energy to work with, 2017 also looks to be a good year to start new projects. Sounds exciting!
