2008 is the Year of the Rat and my 3rd cycle of the Chinese Zodiac since I was born during the Year of the Rat. 2008 is especially special being the Year of the Golden Rat which comes along every 60 years so I don't think I'll be around for the next one. But just in case I do make it, I would have lived nearly a century.
This year is a year of New Beginnings so as we all embark on journeys unknown and known to make this world a better place for all. Our purpose-driven lives will surely be the WILL of THE HIGHER POWER.
Rat
Career
This year sees the Rat being governed by the General Star, also known as the Sui Jia star. You will see enhancements to your work efforts as well as fantastic support from your superiors and workmates! This is the timefor you to show off your skills and shine, Rat - in fact, the stars show that being more extroverted than usual will only serve to strengthen your luck potential. Be vocal, too, and you will see others actually listening to you for guidance.
Though your career luck is wonderful, do keep in mind that any major lifechanges are not advisable for you this 2008. Do not make any bigdecisions, either, but instead keep busy with your work. One exception tothis rule is if you are offered a project abroad by your existingemployer, taking up the challenge will prove advantageous!
Wealth
The Rat will enjoy very good Wealth luck this year. Inspirations and opportunities abound, and you will indeed prosper. Concentration on your work is the key ingredient though, Rat - work hard, play hard, and successis yours.
If you're interested in dabbling with investments this year, you shoulddepend on conservative investments and steady revenue rather than speculative ones.
Relationship
The Rat's relationship prospects are a little uncertain this year. For the single Rat, it is actually very advisable for you to put your love life at a halt this year and focus on work - but, if you're keen on starting a relationship, chances are they will be short-term and casual in nature.The attached Rat should also do likewise - maintain your love life, but keep your career at the fore.
Health
Because the Rat will be nose-deep in work effort, health may be jeopardized. Organize your time well and remember that you do need a good rest every night. Aside from this, the Rat should also be careful of accidents involving vehicles or even heavy machinery.
There is also a potential of you getting robbed and seriously hurt in the process,therefore reduce this risk by staying entirely away from remote places and don't take any chances with your personal safety.
You may also counter these possible occurrences by donating your blood in 2008.
