The Chinese New Year of the Rat

We are approaching a year of new beginnings, as we celebrate the Chinese New Year of the Metal Rat January 25, 2020. The rat is the first of the Chinese zodiac animals, so fresh starts are bound to be underway.  With it being a metal rat year and metal being sturdy, strong, and determined, it’s a wonderful year to start a new business, create new production, invest money in a long term project, get married, or begin a new relationship.

Rats are clever, quick, resilient, optimistic and energetic.  With a high attention to detail, they get the job done with some effort. If you do bring that entrepreneurial spirit, your projects and investments will be successful, as long as there is a good plan in place. Rats tend to be prosperous and gain financial reward.  Even though they may be stingy with their money, they are known to spend money on unnecessary things, so be sure to watch where your assets go.

Most of us will transform in our careers, especially those with independent detail orientated professions such as architects, engineers, surgeons, doctors, editors, writers, scientists, and the like.  

Health can be good over all, but do to the trail of work we will all fall into, exhaustion can be common along with weakened immunity.  Extra precaution should be taken to not over strain yourself. Keep a healthy work/life balance in check with plenty of rest, good diet, and adequate exercise, if you want to come out on top with your energy still in tact at the year’s end.

This is also a year where new love relationships are bound to surface and could last for the long haul if founded in the year of the rat.  For those already coupled, marriage or a deepening of love could be experienced.

2020 is an exciting transitionary year for all of us.  Keep active, follow the breadcrumbs, get your plan in place for your future!  We will certainly have the energy for it.
