Geez, thanks a lot "Far East Fortune Cookie Co. Ltd." That was so dumb.

The Lunar Horoscope for 2007

Happy Lunar New Year!

Even though I am filipino, (which means we do not celebrate the lunar new year) I still partake in many a new year meal due to having many asian friends. Year of the Pig... totally! I'm so full it's not funny. Anyway, in honour of the festivities, here's my horoscope for the year. I fall under the sign of RABBIT.

Disposition
The Rabbit is noble and elegant. They handle matters with care. When it comes to emotions, they are fickle minded and cannot stay faithful to their partner. They are down to earth and do not like taking risks. They are willing to undertake a project provided the terms are 100% secure. The Rabbit’s human relations are good and friendly. Their finance managing is average. They lack discipline in punctuality. The female rabbit loves to read and is full of empathy. When someone needs helps, they are very glad to extend a helping hand. They have always yearned for a tranquil life.

The Rabbit is full of emotions; they get over broken relationships very fast. This is where they get attraction from the opposite sex. Their six senses are strong and it is their protective amulet. They seemed to predict what is going around them and they are well prepared in advance. For the love aspect, men and women are romantic but the female is especially gentle and careful. In their marriage, there are not much of conflicts.

Marriage
The Rabbit and the Goat is an ideal match as they appreciate each other’s virtues. A match with the Dog and Pig is logical as the Dog is sensitive and the Pig can endure hardships. Avoid the match with the Rooster as the Rabbit cannot tolerate the Rooster’s arrogant and conceited character.

Luck
Rabbit’s luck is not favorable this year. There is a presence of bad constellation. All business plans will be slowed down. With the assistance of business partners born in the year of Pig, Dog and Goat, it is able to eliminate danger for the Rabbit. Human relationship is also a big headache. It is unfavorable in Autumn season. You can hope for better luck in Winter season. This is the year where White Tiger constellation appears, one must pay extra attention as disasters of bloodshed will happen. With the Unicorn Amulet or having a pregnant woman at home, it is able to ward off the ill effects.

Career
There will be obstacles to career advancement for the Rabbit. For those who want to invest in a business will feel that he/she has the ability but lack of strength. It is best to make plans in Summer and Autumn season. The most feasible time to execute the plan will be in Winter season.

Fortune Luck
The Rabbit will suffer unexpected financial losses and accidents. Do not take risk in investments or visit gambling establishments. There is a possibility to fall into financial crisis in Summer and Autumn season. With careful finance management, one may meet the benefactor in Winter season which will in turn help the Rabbit tide through difficulties. Do not act as a guarantor for anyone athis may lead you to incur monetary losses.

Health
There are bad constellations this year, threateningly leads the Rabbit to be prone to bloodshed incidents. Pay attention to diet to avoid being sick. Do not drive after liquor consumption as there is a likelihood of traffic accidents. For those who are involved in high risk career, be extra cautious when executing jobs. Be more cautious in Autumn season.

Romance
This year, the Rabbit has a lucky constellation in love life. It attracts more choices for him/her. You will be able to find your ideal partner through participation in social events. Marriage may take place this year. The Peach Blossom constellation appears in lunar calendar November. Do not let the golden opportunity slip away.

Academic
The Rabbit student will not excel in studies this year. To break through, one must study diligently. If you encounter problems with schoolwork, do not hesitate to consult your parents, teacher and classmates. During school vacation, one must revise and refrain from going out to play.
