Chinese New Year arrives on February 18 this year. It will be the Year of the Fire Pig. It's an auspicious year for women, especially middle-aged women, according to a few of the interpretations I've read, but there is some conflict between the Fire element and the Pig's Water associations.

Date: 2007-01-08 08:55 am (UTC)"As this past year of the Dog built structure and a symbolic "home" it is now time for the Pig to "furnish" said castle making it a comfortable, cozy place of safety and security. Occupying the life palace of home & family life with the Dog, the Pig proceeds to complete what the Dog has laid foundations for. Finishing touches, tying up loose ends, last stands, curtain calls and closures will be the urging of the year. So, prepare to finish projects, complete goals and even say some goodbyes. Put your ducks in a row, cross your T's and dot your I's in 2007 and the proper Pig will be gracious to you."
I hadn't realised that last year was the year of the Dog. And I know this is symbolic, but the whole tie-in with Dog, Pig, and changes in the home struck a definite chord.
