Since no one else seems to have a made a topic on it, I thought I would. Today (January 29th, 2006) is the beginning of the year of the dog. You can read up on it here - http://www.google.com/search?q=lunar+new+year+2006

And to spice things up a bit, what year were you born in and which part of the Zodiac does it correspond? I was born in 1988, which makes me a Dragon:

Quote:

People born in the Year of the Dragon are healthy, energetic, excitable, short-tempered, and stubborn. They are also honest, sensitive, brave, and they inspire confidence and trust. Dragon people are the most eccentric of any in the eastern zodiac. They neither borrow money nor make flowery speeches, but they tend to be soft-hearted which sometimes gives others an advantage over them. They are compatible with Rats, Snakes, Monkeys, and Roosters.

August 1985 makes me an ox.

Quote:

People born in the Year of the Ox are patient, speak little, and inspire confidence in others. They tend, however, to be eccentric, and bigoted, and they anger easily. They have fierce tempers and although they speak little, when they do they are quite eloquent. Ox people are mentally and physically alert. Generally easy-going, they can be remarkably stubborn, and they hate to fail or be opposed. They are most compatible with Snake, Rooster, and Rat people.

Sounds stereotypically Finnish. Wouldn't say that I'm all that quick to anger or silent though.

If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.

In the Chinese zodiac, I'm a boar.

Quote:

Boars are self-reliant, very sociable, dependable,and extremely determined. Boars are peace lovers and don't hold grudges. They hate arguments, tense situations, and try to bring both sides together. In life they make deep and long-lasting friendships. Boars enjoy social gatherings of all kinds, and look for parties to attend. In fact, Boars must watch themselves so that their incessant pursuit of pleasure doesn't interfere with other aspects of their lives. Boars belong to clubs and they make terrific fund raisers. They have a real knack for charity and social work. Boars always listen to problems. They won't mind getting involved and try to help. Boars have big hearts. A problem that Boars have is that they are too innocent and naive. Being honest and trustworthy themselves, they have a hard time understanding the motives of those with less scruples.

Boars do not dazzle or shimmer. They possess the old-fashioned chivalry that grows on you until you totally depend on it. It is so easy to trust Boars. They have a calm expression and a sincere manner. They are blessed with endurance and work steadily at tasks with great patience until completion.

Once Boars arrive at a decision nothing stops them. Of course, before they reach that decision they weigh all the pros and cons. They definitely want to avoid complications. Sometimes they ponder so long they miss the opportunity altogether. But never mind, Boars always believe in miracles, and miracles always happen to them. Fortune favors Boars. They always find someone to help them without having to beg.

In romance, if not careful, Boars may be taken advantage of. Boars trust everyone and believe everything they hear. They are unselfish and enjoy helping their friends. Although they are gullible, they are actually quite intelligent and know how to take care of their own. If you hurt their feelings, Boars often carry the pain for years. They have a hard time saying no to those of concern. Often they wish they had said no.

Boars will always be looking for ways to work off all their extra energy. They work and play hard. Even if they lose everything, Boars manage to bounce back. Their life path supply them with all they need. The Chinese believe Boars own the Horn of Plenty.

In the western zodiac, I'm a scorpio.

YEAR OF THE RABBIT
Humans born under the sign of the rabbit are gifted, ambitious and smooth talkers. Other people respect and trust them, and they are renowned for their good taste. Rabbit people enjoy light gossip, but if it gets vicious will refuse to participate. Rabbit people can endure a great deal of imitation before loosing their tempers. In business they are cleaver; they firmly believe that "a promise is a promise" and their word is a contract. Although rabbit people can be affectionate, they have a rather detached attitude in family relationships. Weeping for no apparent reason is one of their weaknesses. They are often melancholy. In some areas rabbit people remain uninformed, probably because they are not seekers of knowledge. They are lucky financially, with an uncanny sense for picking a winner - this makes them good gamblers. However, in money matters, they usually think things over carefully.
