5. Predictions for the year of the Dragon General Predictions -

6. The year 2012 GENERAL FORECAST : It is going to be a “challenging” year with happenings on 3 main areas like Money matters, Natural Disasters and Environmental matters.

7. The year 2012 It is a “challeging” year because - the first 6 months has “yang water” while the latter 6 months has “yang earth”. The “water” in the year weakens the “earth” causing the Dragon to be a year of “big changes” for some.

8. The year 2012 The year, 2012 is called, “Ren Chen” year, where we can also called it a “Water Dragon” year. It’s a Black Water Dragon year because – The “water” weakens the “earth” and causes it to “flood” as there are too much water in the year and again during this period : 15/10 to 13/11 2012

9. The year 2012 The combination of “Ren and Chen” will make the Dragon year a year where out of the 3 main issues, Money (because of too much water element) is the main issue and can cause Global financial difficulties if not handled carefully Dragon is a “fierce” animal as out of the 12 animal signs, it is “invisible” as there is no “real” Dragon in all the 12 animal signs and therefore it can be a “super good year” or a “super negative year”. “Invisible” can be very good or bad and give rise to power and authority

10. The year 2012 The Dragon is the fifth animal of the 12 animal signs The Dragon is also a pretty lazy animal and therefore many people are going to feel very sleepy, tired and sleeping alot. Though they may be sleepy but when they wake up, they can be very “fierce” It will be a “fierce dragon from the start with many people having financial difficulties or loosing money so becareful.

11. The year 2012 When is Chinese New Year ? 4 February 2012, the season of spring (Li Chun) is the beginning of the new year according to the solar calendar However, many chinese all over the world would still celebrate Chinese New Year on 23 January 2012 which follows the lunar calendar
