A Lucky Year

I am born under the Year of the Rat. As I entered year 2008, I can't help but be curious what this year holds for me. And I found out, I am quite lucky.

Attention:

To those who are born under the Year of the Rat, I'd like to share this one...

*Carreer*

First trimester - During the first month of this period, the circumstances will be favorable to your professional success. The stars will protect you and facilitate all your moves and initiatives. Therefore you'll have every reason to be optimistic. Do not miss the boat! From the second month onwards, good prospects of a change in career will be offered to you. This may be proposals for a change of company, a radical change of the kind of work, or a change of work place. You'll be well advised to show daring and inventiveness, whatever your branch of activity may be.

Second trimester - During the first two months of this period, you'll get good results in your work. However, your clear-cut opinions and your refusal to make concessions may provoke clashes with fellow-workers. A little more flexibility would help you avoid many useless setbacks. During the remainder of the period, you'll be all but a dilettante. On the contrary, you'll be set on achieving your projects by sparing neither your efforts nor your time. The reward will take much time to come, which will incline you even more to perseverance.

Third trimester - Your professional comportment will change at the beginning of this period. You'll be compelled to solve your problems drastically, to weigh the pros and the cons on all occasions. Beware not to provoke too violent shocks; you can achieve your objectives more surely if you work calmly. From the second month of the period on, you'll become more determined, more active, more dynamic. You'll be more inclined than ever to privilege the future and to take drastic decisions. Good success in the last month.

Fourth trimester - You'll have to carry out the orders of a hierarchical superior, however difficult this may be. Do not above all give him the impression that you don't care about things: he might believe it and then things might begin to go awry for you. Life is made this way: it implies restraints that one must unfortunately accept if one does not want to be crushed by them. From the second month of the period onwards, great opportunities of changing career will be offered to you. You'll know how to convince your superiors or associates of the validity and the exactness of your decisions or projects.

*Finances*

First trimester - The stars will help you consolidate or improve your financial situation. Many of you will even have the right to an increase of their incomes. But don't rest on your laurels and don't forget to profit by this favorable period to prepare for the future. It will be, for instance, the moment or never to buy a suitable house or apartment; you'll find a quite interesting occasion and can obtain a loan in very good conditions. Think also of placing your savings or to invest them: You'll be a winner!

Second trimester - Your nest egg will become bigger without your having to make great efforts. Don't expect to make a fortune suddenly: What lies in wait for you is a comfortable financial situation which will be slightly on the upswing as compared to preceding periods. However, it's possible that some natives of Wood years will see their levels of living increase significantly.

Third trimester - The planetary influxes will on the whole be favorable to your finances. But you'll nevertheless have to keep control of the situation. If you spend too much or if you embark on too risky investments, you may see chance turn its back on you. Remain reasonable even though you'll have the right to celestial support this time.

Fourth trimester - You who always dream of winning at the Lotto must be satisfied with what you can earn with your job. Don't complain: If the stars don't promise you an exceptional stroke of luck, they won't threaten you with a catastrophe either. Thus, even though you will be compelled to check the state of your bank account before satisfying your present spending desires, keep smiling and think of those who have less than you do.

You might be wondering how come I only selected those areas. It's simply because, that's the only areas I am interested in knowing. :D
