CHINESE NEW YEAR 2009

YEAR OF ‘THE OX IN THE BYRE’

"...Another side of the Earth Element is that it is very resistant to any sort of change. Saturn is like that. As with the year just past, also ruled by Saturn, karmic accounts will come due all year. However, as we have seen from history, this year will be more about consolidation and movement forward based upon that rather than some sort of revolutionary or evolutionary change, which Rat Years can bring. The pairing of the Rat and the Ox (and they are a natural pair in Chinese astrology) is said to be one of ‘construction’. In other words, this is a pairing of years that will alter the course of history somehow and put new structures into play..."
