The Rat in 2008

Overall Forecast For The Year

When the Earth Rat (Wu Zi) year starts in the spring of 2008, those born in the Year of the Rat fall into the category of those who Offend the Grand Duke. This is not necessarily bad, but Rats need to be slightly more cautious and watch their actions this year. A traditional way to deal with this situation is to hold joyous celebrations, which will help usher in positive vibes. Otherwise, you should stay active by traveling, moving or renovating house, going on a business trip or transferring departments - this also generates positive vibesto counter the Grand Duke force.

In 2008, there are three auspicious stars in the Rat Life Palace. Two of these stars - Sui Jia and the General Star combined will bring good progress to the Rat's career. If you are employed, you will probably be promoted with a pay rise. The third auspicious star is the Tang Fu Star. Tang Fu is a sign of authority, and particularly benefits those who use discipline at work, for example those who are in the military forces. In this case, you will most likely be promoted if you are aggressive in getting things done this year. Additionally, the presence of the General Star will give you the determination you need to achieve better things.

All three indicate the possibility of injury, anxiety and accidents, so you should take extra precautions throughout the year when it comes to personal safety!
