* For the Chinese people, the color red is one of the most popular colors at Chinese New Year and is traditionally associated with good fortune, happiness and strength, success in projects and prosperity in the family.

PROVISO: Astrology works if you work to make it work. Of course, nothing much will happen if you don't make it happen. Truly confident people know how to move on and find a happier side of Life. They believe nothing unless it agrees with their own principles and basic common sense. Then, they act on it and move forward!

GOOD:  DRAGON, SHEEP, SNAKE,
SOSO:  TIGER, HORSE, MONKEY
AVOID: RAT, ROOSTER, PIG

FAVORABLE DATES: AUGUST 22-31; SEPTEMBER 1-30   

CHALLENGING DATES: JULY 30-31; AUGUST 1-21

aYi-KING-KOIN== Do what you really want to do instead of what you think others expect you to do. Do what must be done without any hesitation. Have the courage to rebuild new structures possibly in a much different setting or environment. Drop your insecurities and move to the land of rainbows.

I CHING for JULY 24-31 RELATIONSHIPS== True Love is available and yours to welcome during the last week of JULY. Astrologically, you are in the middle of a very personal emotional revolution that makes even more sensual and outgoing than ever before. Since there is a general attractiveness about you that others find irresistible and because your emotions and senses will be primed for pleasure, chances are that a growing relationship will blossom if you dare ask your lover to share your Life and the same home! Guess what? Chances are that your intimate relationship will solidify into a permanent alliance. To be happy, is just a question of time. You deserve contentment, don’t you?
Like you, so do I.

SUGGESTION: There are people out there who suffer a much worst destiny than yours. Of course, thinking of these people won’t pay your bills but chances are that your destiny will shift in a constructive way if you give the sick, the young, the elderly, the afflicted and physically impaired, and the mentally challenged people the attention, time, support and care they so justly deserve.

I CHING for JULY 25-31 FRIENDSHIPS== Are you ready to experience true friendship; one that brings you that inner peace and tranquility you crave so much? Chances are that during this last week of JULY, you will feel needed and appreciated by a very special friend with whom you might share psychic beliefs, intelligence, and loyal understanding. Most probably, this stimulating friend will leave a lasting impression on you. In return, you would well be advised to pay back this loving friend with care, affection and loving kindness; that is if you wish to keep this person in your Life. Such, rare 'birds' are quite in demand and there are very few of them around! So, are you ready to experience real joy, happiness and contentment? Of course, you are! Lucky you!

Heaven's harmony (networking): This astrological period favors the building of a social network of contacts and friends, and making committed connections with interactive, interesting, and influential people. As a result, if you prove socially competent, these self-assured people should normally respond positively and guide your progressive evolution and bring the necessary support you need. Stay connected. Please hug as many people as you can and feel the LOVE within each and every person that you do hug. The power of LOVE will be the reward!

QUESTION for you: If for one reason or another, this was the last time you were to see someone you love, would you treat that person differently knowing that it would be the last time you would speak to that person? Would you treat that person with more kindness more compassionately rather than rushing away? Would your heart be more open? Now, do visualize and imagine that you are saying your final goodbye to that person. Please understand that I make this suggestion not to scare you, but to encourage you to be fully conscious of the following possibility; if those you love so much were no longer around you, you would most probably be a pretty lonely person. So next time you say 'goodbye' to someone you love, someone you like, a friend, never ever, forget to tell that person how much you Love him or her and how much you enjoy sharing your life with that loved one. Dare fill each moment, each minute, each day filled with affection, love, appreciation, Loving Kindness and compassion. You are truly blessed!

I CHING for JULY 25-26== Take inventory of your Life, dissolve past attachments, unrealistic fears, and restrictive limitations, and release destructive emotions from past memories. Sweep it all and flush it out. Move out. Move away. So, taking charge of your Life, leaving the blame and the baggage behind, and preparing to greet the lover of your visions will accelerate your personal growth. Moving ahead without turning back (NOT even once) requires commitment and takes time to develop; yet taking charge of your destiny will surely make you feel happier and more satisfied.

aYi-KING-KOIN== Hope for the best but plan for the worst. By mid-September you will blossom in the sunshine.

Earth's harmony (money-work): Time to define money-making plan/strategy. Indeed, the astrological aspects for this period are a tremendous powerhouse to set goals, undertake fresh initiatives, and take reasonable and well calculated risks.

I CHING for JULY 27 MONEY== For your finances to get a boost, focus on rationalizing and prioritizing your plans. As a result, a remarkable amount of sheer luck will be drawn to you almost magnetically.

SUGGESTIONS: Visualization is a great device for bringing the mind to focus on abundance. Through visualization, you can consciously open your mind in receptivity and concentrate your attention on the object of your desires. It is important that you know the exact outcome you wish for. To do so you must draw a specific mental picture. For instance, if you are looking for new companions, mentally see your Self being surrounded by happy friends. If you seek material, intellectual or spiritual abundance, visualize yourself surrounded by the good things of Life. If you are engaged in some business or profession, mentally see the presence of fully satisfied clients who refer you to other potential customers or clients. 

I CHING for JULY 28-29 WORK== If there are problems, there are solutions. Be more alert to the problems. Solutions are available. Accept with courage whatever comes your way. Whatever you try to do in Life, give it your best every day. One way to live life to the fullest is to pick the career path you would enjoy most. Just to be on the safe side, give some serious consideration to what could go wrong during AUGUST. Whatever happens in AUGUST, prove that you are a problem solver. Quality of preparedness must be actively addressed.  So, what could go wrong? What action should you take? What is your winning strategy? One thing for sure, you should not leave your job if you do not have any valid reason. However, if you are or expect to become unemployed, it is urgent that you learn a new trade. Then, find a more decent job even if you have to move far away possibly in another country. Your gain? Getting the career that matters most to you while earning decent income in a job that perfectly fits your innermost desires in a field you care about. Astrologically when? Possibly between SEPTEMBER 9 and OCTOBER 18. Job well done, should always be your driving force. Remember, if there are problems, there are also solutions!

WORKABLE STRATEGIES== Restructure your work life. Search for a career that is right for you. Find a job that turns you on. Astrologically, it seems that you have no other option than to get expert advice, pick and apply the best solution, then visualize a favorable outcome, and do your best to make it happen. That’s how you will become the architect of your victory. Remember, astrology works if you work to make it work. Well planned action, steadiness, and security are the keywords now.

I CHING for JULY 30-31 MONEY== You should be more careful. Properly insure your possessions and your property (house, car, RVs, camping trailers). Revise your insurance policies. Get supplementary coverage for so called 'act-of-God' damages; flash floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, landslides, wild forest fires. Some of you will be victim of a dam burst or a sudden flash rain storm. Buy a dingy (paddles), fishermen's long boots, rubber hat, and coveralls.

AUGUST: If you have the impression that you are on a fast track and that your situation will keep on going well, think again. Between AUGUST 1 and 31, since unfinished business prevents you from moving ahead both your temper and your nerves can be on edge. Indeed, since you could be more vulnerable to disharmony and losing your job, your income, your spouse, better think twice before having an affair with a friend’s spouse or with a coworker. What to do? Gaining proper perspective is absolutely necessary during this awful month. Remember, nothing great comes without struggle. Loving Kindness and enlighten courage are some of the vital ingredients of a gratifying, happy Life. You deserve authentic happiness, don’t you? Of course, you do. We, all do. Trust Life!

SEPTEMBER: Expect lots of constructive development possibly. Astrologically, the last 3 weeks of SEPTEMBER seem to be the ideal period to materialize a concrete short term project or to activate some drastic changes (lover, employer, residential move). An important chapter of your life is coming to a turning point as long as you are prepared to turn the page, and move on. How? Meeting people with similar interests or needs and interpersonal communicating, building more meaningful connections, and promoting your talents and pursuing your ambitious plans should soon bring remarkable improvement to your lifestyle. So, do what matter most to you. And, do it now. Moving in the direction of your choice will surely contribute to your enjoyment of Life. GREAT!

OCTOBER: A past relationship still engages you emotionally? Deal with what you don't want to face. This month is the ideal period to accept your part of responsibility for what happened in the past. What? You don’t feel at all responsible for the breakup? Well, it is up-to-you to turn the page (or not) and bring on a new chapter in your Life. Fact is that you don't really have a choice. Taking this crucial step will ease your exit from what was most probably an unsatisfactory relationship. Are you ready to experience the intimacy of a true partnership but with a different mate, a more acceptable and more compatible one? One who has the potential to shower you with attention and tons of affection without making you feel beholden, controlled and manipulated. Are you ready to experience real JOY (finally)? Why? General prospects for loving relationships and friendships are astrologically much brighter during OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, and DECEMBER. So, if you are willing and available, if you have been without anyone for an extended period, someone who shares your values and meets your standards (cheerful, easygoing, and socially broad-minded) might come into your Life. Falling in love will make you smile. And, together both your lover and you will shine. You will look better, and feel better. So, enjoy that felling. Astrologically, SNAKE born people are most compatible with RABBIT, OX, DOG, DRAGON, SHEEP, and SNAKE born people.

NOVEMBER: Being cautious can spare you many frustrating disagreements. For example: if in the past your efforts were overlooked and undermined, if you have been spending precious time fighting and clawing for everything, well, several astrological aspects for NOVEMBER indicate that you might be exiting this harsh adversity if you build better connections with the very people you care about. Your gain? Creating an emotionally rewarding companionship with a supportive friend, colleague, or boss will sweep away the loneliness you experienced in the past. Discovering the wonders of friendship is all fine but you must first reach out. How? Simple, do some volunteering during this Holiday Season!

DECEMBER: Many aspects of your Life are getting back on track. Good Fortune seems to be returning to you. provided you make the most of your business/commercial administrative abilities. Indeed, major chapters will begin to work out as you intended about a year and a half ago but were delayed for reasons beyond your control. Such as? Becoming the satisfied person you always wished to be. So, prepare for that opportunity of a lifetime astrologically forecasted for this DECEMBER, next JANUARY, and FEBRUARY 2011. So, remain committed to the process of change begun but by no means completed!

SUGGESTED MEDITATION: Inner peace.

FENG SHUI:
1- One effective yet simple remedy to shield your home from large or tall objects is to plant trees or shrubs around your house.

2- Dying plants or trees should be removed from your yard immediately because of the bad FENG SHUI they create.

3- To circulate and spread luck and prosperity, please use plants and crystals to help chi flow throughout a room and throughout your house.

4- Dried flowers give off excessive yin energy and should not be used in the home or office.

5- Use live plants as much as possible because they enhance chi movement and, like crystals and hollow bamboo stems, they seem to have the capacity to filter negative sha into positive chi.

6- Chinese tradition says that a crystal chandelier is a powerful source of yang energy which might attract money and success for an entire family.

7- Always energize the south corner in your home with red candles, the southwest with a pink quartz crystal, the west with a horseshoe or metal hangings, the northwest with a wind chime or a brass bell, the north with a fountain, the northeast with a ceramic bowl or figurine, the southeast with purple flowers, and the east with a potted plant or small tree.

8- If inside your home there is a fireplace or a wood stove, hang a mirror above the fireplace and place live plants pottery and ceramic pieces on each side of it to prevent beneficial chi from escaping up the chimney.

9- Displaying images or a drawing of a crane or of a deer symbolizes longevity; of an elephant, good fortune; of a tiger, protection; of a green dragon, phoenix, and turtle, good fortune. Images of a white tiger are viewed as overbearing.

10- Hanging red tassels help retain chi energy.

Remember, FENG SHUI works if you work to make it work.
So, give your GOOD FORTUNE a chance to materialize!
