2013- Year of the Water Snake Horoscopes
On February 10th 2013 (year 4711 in
the Chinese calendar) we entered the year of the Yin Water Snake (Gui Si). The
last time we had a Yin Water Snake year was back in 1953 and this is the cycle
of 60 years which will be found in a traditional “ten thousand year” calendar.
General Predictions
for 2013: the Year of the Water Snake
The year of
the water Snake will be another year of variation, for the Snake year normally brings
good and bad consequences as well as new power structures in various countries.
Once more
there will be many transformations in the Middle East. New regimes in some
areas will initially seem very good but there is long struggle ahead to cement
these advancements for the better.
Regrettably
2013 will mean that finances will be tight again and the slightest problems
could bring stock markets the world over tumbling down.
2013 could
be a year of conflict for people born in the year of the Tiger or the Pig,
particularly those aged 66, born in the year of the Earth Tiger, 1938. If this
is you, in this year of the Snake look after your health and do not overexert
yourself.
Predictions for the Rat in 2013
The year of
the Snake, starting on the 10th of Feb. 2013, should be another positive year for
the Rat. Rats will find that things in
their career and business will go rather well this year. There is also a good
chance for promotion throughout the year. However, they should guard against
being overconfident and slack off or be remiss in their efforts, as Rats still
have to work for their benefits. Rats that are looking for employment in 2013
may find that their luck will take a turn for the better as long as they are persistent
and are affable when dealing with future employers.
For the Rat 2013
should be deemed as the year of saving for future pay offs. Naturally, you can
still treat yourself in 2013 but try to resist over-extravagant ventures, the
fancy car on finance or expensive jewellery, unless it is well within your means.
Also remember to check the terms and conditions of any contract or legal
documents before signing it in this year.
Rats, being
quite active, need to stay as healthy and fit as possible throughout 2013. This
could be achieved by reserving some time for relaxation and adapting a good
regimen of healthy exercise and a proper, nutritious diet. Rats born in 1972 should take a steady
approach in 2013 and should remember to take a break whenever possible
throughout the year. A regular respite is important as stress can be an issue this
year along with some depression. Whatever is on your mind right now however,
know that it will pass and you are on or soon will be on the right path. Meanwhile
enjoy your year and remember things are not as bad as you think; leave a little
leeway on your side, too. If you don’t know what I am talking about you will
soon.
With their
outgoing and curious nature, Rats can look forward to some enjoyable social occasions
this year. It will be a productive year
for the Rat native and they should also spend a lot of time in planning and
character building. The Rat will find that they have the ability to set a good
foundation and get far in 2013 if they reserve some time to securing their
future. Younger Rats born in 1996 should allocate as much time as possible to
studying, as the amount of effort expanded now will benefit them in later life.
Remember; March, May, August and December
could be particularly active months. In April Rats could see some interesting
developments but, as a rule, the second half of the year starting with mid-September
to early December will be more positive time for them.
The Rat’s
home life is important and during the year they will come to value the support
and advice of those around them. They
need only to be more communicative, more open and attentive and be mindful of
the feelings of those closest to them.
When under pressure or making what could be an important decision, the
insights of their loved ones will be both reassuring and invaluable. Domestically the year favors good planning, that
is: setting aside time for mutual interests and special occasions. The closing
months of the year could see some additional travel opportunities and memorable,
joyous family occasions.
Single Rats,
especially those born in 1948, can expect steady times for romance this year and
can even expect wedding plans. If the Rat is married or committed, they should
be prepared to spend a lot of time with their partner throughout this year and
show affection when needed. Make lots of time to spoil them.
Overall, for
the Rat, 2013 will be a great year but they must be careful with finances and
do not splurge with their spending unless they are certain that it will be well
reciprocated or is a good deal. The Rat must always make sure to read the small
print. Keep in mind that this year favours carefully considered actions instead
of haste.
As a Rat you
are in affinity with the Ox. For protection, have a key chain pendant of an Ox
with you at all times throughout the year of 2013.
Predictions for the Ox in 2013
2013 is to
be a year of progress and fresh start for the Ox, with much advancement in the
workplace and with relationships. With regards to employment many Oxen will
find that they are progressing well in 2013 and there is a great chance of
advancement in the workplace this year. Oxen
can expect good news in 2013 but they must be careful with paperwork and work matters
throughout the year. Oxen born in 1985 must try to make the most of the
situation when given the chance to prove themselves, as this will pay off. This
will also be a great year for the Ox to learn new skills, especially young Oxen
born in 1997. Money luck will be good. This
year will also be a good year to finance hobbies able to do so but please be
sure to avoid impulse purchases as the Ox still needs to be save for bills and financial
commitments and, of course, for the great social year awaiting them. In
particular, Oxen will find themselves climbing the social ladder this year,
especially with work related events and groups of new friends. Please be
careful with spending in 2013 as the increase in social events can lead to
overspending. Only spend what you can afford.
Indeed, 2013 offers good opportunities for the
Ox, who can expect new relationships and even a rekindling of existing ones. With
an increased social life in 2012, it is imperative to find a good balance
between home and social life. Be careful not to neglect loved ones and make sure
to spend a lot of time with close and extended family as well as friends all throughout
the year. The year will be busy but leave some time for play and make sure you
take plenty of rest.
Your busy
lifestyle can cause your diet to go a bit wild in 2013 so please make sure to
eat sensibly, including plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables. Get plenty of
exercise throughout the year.
It may be a
mixed year but whatever has been unresolved in the last few years will come to
a head in 2013 and I’m sure you will like the news.
As an Ox you
are in affinity with the Rat. For protection have a key chain pendant of a Rat
with you at all times throughout the year.
Predictions for the Tiger in 2013
The Snake
year can slow down the Tiger’s progress during 2013 but they should not let
this deter them as this year can still be very rewarding one if the Tiger knows
what to expect and plan for the year ahead. All the same, Tigers should start
2013 with a steady approach and not jump in to any big projects or expenses.
If the Tiger
is looking to advance in their career it would be a good idea to consider all
the different options that are available in the workplace as this will help to
learn new skills and, by taking on new projects, prove yourself at work. Moreover,
it will set the foundations for the upcoming years as this will work to Tiger’s
advantage later on in the year or during the early months of 2014. Young Earth
Tigers born 1998 should spend the time studying throughout the year as this will
greatly benefit them in the next few years!
For Tigers
seeking employment, be sure to keep your head up, as great things will come to
those who wait. Keep in mind also that it may seem very hard finding work
during this year but there are a lot of new employment opportunities waiting
just around the bend for the Tiger native.
For Tigers that
are in a relationship or ones that are married, they need to spend lot of time with
the family and friends. Their social calendar should be very full in 2013
despite the risk of personality clashes in this year. During such times Tigers must be prepared to
keep the peace.
Single
Tigers will discover new love in the most unexpected of places during 2013. Its
best to try avoiding arguments or disagreements in order to ensure a long
lasting relationship with any potential new romances. Also, the Tiger must be
sure to take things slow and not jump straight into a relationship in 2013 as
this could burn out quite fast if they mix arguments and quick commitment.
Tigers born
in 1950 should make time to relax and spend time on their hobbies in 2013 as
this can bring a great deal of pleasure to the Metal Tiger this year.
The Tiger is
in affinity with the Pig/Boar. For protection, be sure to carry a key chain
pendant of a Pig.
Predictions For the Rabbit/Hare in
2013
This is a
great year and a time for advancement in a lot of aspects in the Rabbit’s life.
It is a good year for learning and self-development as the Rabbit will find
study and learning a lot easier to take in, especially Rabbits born in 1999. This
is therefore the perfect time to learn new skills, acquire hobbies and take
exams as it can lead to a change in career that the Rabbit will benefit from.
In the workplace
the employer may be putting a lot more trust in the Rabbit; there is also a lot
of luck on their side should they wish to change careers. Expectantly, finances
will be good, particularly if a promotion comes their way. For advance at work,
March, May, June and November are the best months to go for a new position. Money
luck is very good for the Rabbit this year. When making big purchases comparison
shop so as not to waste money. The Rabbit will notice a great deal of social
events over the year with a lot of chances to meet new people, especially
during April and August. The Rabbit’s rise in social interaction will help
single Rabbits tremendously in finding new love; these new relationships will
have strong chances of being long lasting.
Those Rabbits
in relationships or married will enjoy a great home life with their partner and
family with a happy and home throughout the year. 2013 has the opportunity to
be a great year for the Rabbit. Rabbits born in 1963 should take action this
year with anything they wish to achieve.
You are in
affinity with the Dog. For protection, have a key chain pendant of a Dog.
Predictions for the Dragon in 2013
The fortunate
Dragon has another good year to look forward to in 2013. If the Dragon native is keen to do well in
2013, and initiate plans fairly early in the year, then they can get a great
deal accomplished. There will be many opportunities for the Dragon to work
their way up in their profession this year and this has the possibility of big
advancements in the work place especially if they are able to act on their
ideas and plan well. There is the possibility that doors they thought had
closed a long time ago will open. The most important thing for the Dragon to
remember is do not overlook the small print of any offer and spot a good
opportunity when it arrives.
Dragons
seeking work should look forward to opportunities to secure a good job this
year as long as they aren’t afraid to start somewhere small then work their way
up. Keep in mind that every artist was
once an amateur. The best times to search for work this year are February,
April, May and November. The Snake year is famous for study and new aptitudes,
therefore the Dragon should seize this opportunity to strengthen their forte by
acquiring a new ability as well as some training. The end result could be an accumulation
of good finances and money rewards in the way of a bonus at work. That is so
long as the Dragon does not slack off, sit back, and let things slide. Dragons
should also keep an eye on their finances this year as the Snake year is a very
fast paced on and overspending can easily happen.
Dragons can
look forward to a good and rewarding year with many new friends coming to them in
2013. This year Dragon should strengthen existing friendships and be mindful
not to neglect loved ones when their social circle vastly increases. Dragons
already in relationships can anticipate rather good progress in their affiliations.
For those Dragons that are still unattached, their enlarged social life could foster
a new love this year, though they need to maintain their composure and not rush
in to relationships too fast.
Dragons born
in 1940 should try to stay as active as possible and be sure to get together
with family whenever possible. Dragons born in 1964 should take opportunity
whenever it arises but be careful to know the conditions attached.
The Dragon’s
lucky sector is the Southeast (112.5º – 127.5º) of the home or office. Nevertheless
they need to be wary if a main door, bedroom or office or any other important
room is located in the southwest, east, or west in 2013, especially during the
months of February, April & August 2013. It will help in these months to remedy some of
the ill effects, particularly if they are not in good health or very stressed,
if the Dragon places a golden Wu Lou and set of six Chinese coins tied in a row
with red ribbon in these rooms.
Romance can
be improved in the northeast, north and southeast of the Dragon’s home although
they have to be careful in the southeast. Having a door in the southeast can
bring in new opportunities and lots of travel. To enhance Dragon romance and
career in 2013 place some dark blue objects in the southeast and the north Introduce
these colours with a doormat, rug, cushion cover, sofa throw, curtains or
similar material. To dissipate the negative effects in 2013, hang a set of six
Chinese coins tied with red ribbon and place a salt water cure in the southwest
and centre of your home or office.
It is
imperative not to undertake any form of noisy renovations or re-decorative work
in the east part of the house or office between February 3rd 2013 and February
3rd 2014. Nor should the Dragon disturb the ground in the east by digging
holes, building foundations or conduct any maintenance work with any noisy
equipment in this area inside or outside their property or garden. Once
disturbed, it can bring three types of misfortunes: financial loss, sickness
and arguments. If they have to carry out work or emergency repairs in the east,
the Dragon should place a six hollow metal rod wind chime between the buildings
and the direction where the work is being carried out. It may be of some help.
Apart from
not disturbing its ground, there are two other rules to follow: if the Dragon
is moving a desk around this year, never place it to sit with their back to the
east; it is far better to face towards the east. If the front door of the
Dragon’s home or business faces east in 2013 they should place a pair of Fu Dogs
just inside looking outwards to act as protective guardians for the year. Also
place a golden coloured Pi Yao in the west looking towards the east.
There are
also two other directions that the Dragon needs to be wary of. These being the Southeast
and Northwest, avoid these at all cost: do not disturb the ground, no
renovations, or any noisy activity here. When disturbed this area can, and
normally will, cause immediate health problems especially for the elderly or
sick; so please be very careful. Suffice it to say if you have to carry out
work or emergency repairs in the northwest you may place a six hollow metal rod
wind chime between your building and the area where the work is being carried
out. Southeast facing properties with front
doors to the southeast must be careful not to allow the doors to slam and do
not renovate or dig in this part for 2013.
Dragons are
in affinity with the Rooster; for enhancement keep a key chain pendant of a
Rooster.
Predictions for the Snake in 2013
2013 will be
a great year for the Snake and they should start the year off with a fresh,
positive attitude! It would be to the Snake’s advantage to forget any prior problems
that may have occurred during 2012 and forgive the people for their wrong
doings.
The Snake
furthers quite a bit in all aspects of life this year. There are plenty of
opportunities for success in the workplace during 2013 with the Snakes’ efforts
being recognised for their input and hard work. If a Snake native feels as
though they have been stifled or stuck in the same job for too long, well, 2013
is a good year to make that move to different departments or a different job. 2013
is also a good year for Snakes to become self-employed, especially if they do
so during the months of March, June, July and September.
Snakes
seeking work will have a great deal of luck this year with many positions being
opened to them although they should still be alert and search rather than wait
for something to come to them.
Finances
will be good in 2013 for the Snake so long as they are careful with their money
and not be too frivolous in their spending. Snakes should be sure to put money
in to savings whenever possible and always be sure to check the terms and
conditions.
This will be
a busy year and whilst all should go well with career and finance the Snake
native can easily overlook their partner's needs. They should make sure, therefore,
to allocate some time for loved ones whether it is a wife, boyfriend, Mother,
Sister or best friend. Snakes should
also reserve some time for themselves and try to relax more, as stress can be
an issue this year and the Snake may feel down and depressed at times. Whatever
is on the Snake’s mind right now however, it will pass.
Overall, the
Snakes year can be very good with many social outings and a great home life.
Snakes born in 1941 and 2001 should be open to new possibilities and embrace
change with a positive attitude. Snakes born in 1989 will accomplish a lot this
year and should try to remain as active as possible.
Snakes are
in affinity with the Monkey. For protection have a key chain pendant of a
Monkey.
Predictions for the Horse in 2013
For the
Horse native the forecast for the 2013 is very similar to last year. Once more
it will be a mixed year and all Horses need to be careful throughout 2013.
There is one variation however; along with all the downs, there are upsides to
2013 for the Horse.
Horses that
have recently changed jobs or are in the process of doing so will benefit from
2013 by becoming quickly settled in their new environment. This also applies for
schools. If any Horse is striving to advance in the workplace, they should do
so with a calm pace and should not rush in to anything.
Horses seeking
a new job or wishing to change their profession should try to do so early on in
the year as, even though the Horse is endowed with strong will and persistent character,
there will be a lot of competition this year.
Horses need
to be very careful with their finances in 2013 as there is a risk of
overspending by not checking contracts or filling forms in properly. Therefore
they need to be extra careful, double check everything and avoid large
purchases unless they are necessary or a good value. This is a year for saving
rather than acquiring.
This is a
year for caution for Horses; avoid risks both physically and financially. In
March, May, October and December, the Horse native will notice their social
life increasing and they will enjoy a great number of social events. Even so,
the Horse needs to periodically make sure to reserve some time for relaxation
with their family at home. The Horse needs to make the most of the good times
as there are some months they will need to stay strong and persevere. They needs to stay focused this year; there is
nothing for the Horse to worry about, just be cautious and mindful of all their
actions. Horse born in 1942 and 1990 should try to stay as focused as possible
during 2013 as their efforts will pay off.
Horses are
in affinity with the Sheep/Goat. For their protection, they should have a key
chain pendant of a Goat.
Predictions for the Goat/ Ram/ Sheep
in 2013
2013 will be
a year of financial increases for the Sheep but they should still try to save
when possible throughout this year. If the Sheep follows this advice and work
hard and smart, he or she could accumulate large sums of money.
Work wise, there
could be a lot of activity this year. Sheep will find that a project that has
previously caused them a lot of stress and taken up a lot of their time will
bring out many of their positive qualities to the attention to persons around
them. If the Sheep is bent on taking on a new responsibility they should be
forewarned that they will need to learn new skills at a fast speed. This will end up being very beneficial to the Sheep,
however, especially if they are given the chance to go on a training course. Sheep
will definitely benefit from learning new skills in the Snake year. This could
be anything from reading a new book to studying a new talent. 2013 is a great
time for using initiative and going ahead with new opportunities.
The Sheep consistently
likes to take a lot of pride in their material objects. This year they will
have an ample opportunity to add to their collection but they should remember
to not make too many impulsive purchases and should not rush into buying
something, as it may turn out somewhat disappointing That the new convertible
is not the best investment they could make.
Sheep will
find themselves meeting a lot of new people in 2013 and they will find that they
win a lot of them over with their ability to relate to others. Sheep could
build strong friendships including a romantic relationship that could lead to a
serious commitment. Single Sheep may see new relationships blooming this year
with possibilities of a good future relationship. There is a very strong
possibility of marriage for Sheep that have been in a long relationship this
year. At home this year, Sheep will have a happy and calm life and will receive
a great deal of support from family for their efforts.
If possible,
Sheep should take a holiday with a loved one this year. They will benefit from
the change of scenery even if they do not go very far. Those born in 1967 should
remain alert for opportunities and act on them. Those born in 1979 should keep
a close eye on their spending during 2013.
Sheep are in
affinity with the Horse. For protection, they should have a key chain pendant
of a Horse.
Predictions for the Monkey in 2013
The Year of
the Snake can be a rewarding time for the Monkey so long as they are prepared
to take things slow this year, apply themselves to work in earnest, plan things out in advance and assess the
benefits and risks of all their actions. It sounds daunting but following these
steps will reward the Monkey with a very positive year in 2013. The Monkey’s
success at work this year chiefly depends on staying focused, avoiding being
sidetracked and employing their tenacity by staying with tasks until their
completion.
It will be
most advantageous for the Monkey to make sure that they are constantly in the
know of recent developments, so as to utilize their skill in assuring greater
gains and procuring future promotions. Unemployed Monkeys may find themselves
in a position where they are struggling to find a job although if they stay
determined and keep a positive attitude they could end up in a strong new
position in a job especially during April, June, July and September.
Even though finances
are very good for the Monkey this year, they still need to be cautious. It is a
good idea perhaps to put some money aside in an interest bearing account to
assure good returns.
Romance and
relationships are very good for single and the committed Monkeys this year. One
thing to remember however, the Monkey should not be neglectful and reserve
ample quality time with their partner.
Monkey’s may
have felt that the last few years had been somewhat difficult, with so many ups
and downs but remember “smooth seas do not make skillful sailors”. Monkeys
should take heart, for these past experiences have been the building blocks of the
person they are today.
Monkeys born
in 1968 should find that swift action is very rewarding this year.
Monkeys are
in affinity with the Snake. For their protection, they should have a key chain
pendant of a Snake.
Predictions for the Rooster in 2013
2013 will be
a very positive and pleasing year for The Rooster as an increased social life
and new finances await them throughout the year. This is a favorable time for the
Rooster to aim for a promotion and advancement in the workplace where great
many opportunities will be available. Consider it well, Rooster, and if
overwhelmed, consult with a trusted friend or partner for an appropriate
guidance. Those already employed should try to maintain close relations with
work mates as much as possible. March, April, July and October are the months
that could bring a promotion the Rooster.
Though luck
is with the Rooster, they still need to take good care of their health for there
is a tendency to overwork themselves in 2013. They should reserve some time for
well earned respite. Perhaps the Rooster should look into some lifestyle
changes, for health always seems much more valuable after it is lost. Remember also that the well being of an individual
depends on the healthy state of the mind as well as the body. As the mind plays a huge part, Roosters
should keep their composure and maintain state of tranquility particularly in
moments of stress. They should take up walking, exercise; anything that is
different to what they’ve been doing. The Rooster needs to be careful with
their diet this year, making sure to eat sensibly and not to neglect the proper
amount of physical exercise. This may
also be a good year for the Rooster to learn how to meditate. The Message for
the Rooster in 2013 is: “Don’t worry all will be well with that problem”.
Roosters
should also try spending a lot of time with family and friends throughout the
year as their busy schedule could cause them to become neglectful. Those born in 1945 should be very careful when
making large purchases and always be sure to check the small print this year.
Roosters are
in affinity with the Dragon. For their protection, they should have a key chain
pendant of a Dragon.
Predictions for the Dog in 2013
The year of
the Snake has great prospects for the Dog and can be a very good year. With
regards to wealth, business and career, 2013 can be a year where which Dogs
reap the benefits of seeds they’ve sown over the previous few years. So make the most of this year as the wind is
behind the Dog native with regards to wealth. They must not think, however,
that they can now just sit back and let the good times happen, for hard work is
still required of the Dog.
Dog should
avoid risky investments however, and definitely avoid lending money to anyone. A
good advice for the Dogs this year is for them to take it easy and look before they
leap, especially with large purchases.
On the other
hand the Dog should be more chartable and make some donations to a good cause
for good gestures and deeds will not go unrewarded.
Single or
unattached Dogs can expect new relationships on the horizon or the rekindling
of an existing one. Dogs need to be careful in relationships, however, especially
if they are married. They should spend
more time with their spouse, as the potential success of the year could cause them
to be negligent with the people that are most important to them; with
disastrous results.
Work may be over
stressful and Dogs need to take extra care with their health by eating sensibly
and getting plenty of exercise. Avoid
the easy options and take-out food, particularly on those late nights, when
mired in a heavy workload. The Dog must
watch what they eat and if their lifestyle is quick TV dinners, they must allow
for this and eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.
Dogs are in
affinity with the Rabbit. For their protection, they should have a key chain
pendant of a Rabbit.
Predictions for Boar/Pig in 2013
Some websites
or books are predicting that 2013 would be a very bad and unfortunate year for
the Pig, but this is not necessarily so. Of course there will be some things the
Pig needs to be forewarned of: for
instance, the amount of work Pig puts in at work will not be proportional to
the results they will get, so they need to think things through before they go ahead with
them. Furthermore, if the Pig keeps a positive attitude and puts in that extra effort
into their work they could make 2013 a much more pleasant year.
Pigs need to
be careful with their finances this year, especially towards the middle of the
year. The secret for all Pigs this year is “money will come in”, but they will have
to make sure they can keep hold of it. They may find the year brings a few
challenges but they will overcome them and the problems they had in 2012 will
be resolved even though new problems may take their place. Then the Pig will
look at the year in November 2013 and say, “it really wasn’t that bad”. They
must also, remember to say “thank you”; these are two small words but have such
a big impact on people’s lives.
During the
summer months, Pigs must exercise caution and avoid taking too many risks such
as extreme sports or dangerous activities. The Pig’s health will be average
throughout 2013, although they could suffer from minor illnesses or accidents.
That is why Pig is being forewarned to avoid dangerous sports and activities. Do
take extra care with health by eating sensibly and getting plenty of sedate exercise.
Watch the diet and if quick TV dinners or takeout cannot be avoided,
incorporate a good dose of fresh fruit and vegetables into your diet. Another
thing to remember is that Pigs should moderate their intake of alcohol and avoid
excessive gambling. A glass of wine or two with their dinner shouldn’t hurt!
The Pig’s
romantic life will have its setbacks if they are looking for long term
relationships; they will go on many dates but will find it difficult to develop
a strong bond with a partner. Arguments will take place with married couples
this year so try and keep peace around the home.
Pigs are in
affinity with the Tiger. For their protection, they should have a key chain
pendant of a Tiger.
Good luck to you all.
