The Year of the Ox begins on 26th January 2009.
For the Rat, the year of the Ox brings a more tranquil time. This will be more a year of peace with less rushing about and less haste. It will be a time to get to know yourself better and to aim quietly toward your personal aims.
Or, if there were any changes that took place last year, these will have brought quite a transformation into your life and now comes the chance for you to take it all in. You will be able to come to terms with all that has gone before, relax in the present and then decide on what you really want to do with your future.
Rat’s Health in the Year of the Ox
Your health will be reasonably good. You will make steady progress throughout the year and the one area you should walk away from, however, is other peoples’ problems. If you allow yourself to get dragged into a friend, neighbour or relative’s troubles, this could be your downfall.
In February and March an air of deception could cause some confusion. You might feel as if someone you had trusted lets you down but are you jumping to conclusions? Before confronting others with your feelings, look more deeply into the matter and you could find that someone has been acting with your best interests in mind, after all.
Romance in 2009 for People Born in the Year of the Rat
A love-affair which didn’t come to much in the past may be re-kindled towards the end of March. What makes it different this time? Circumstances will have changed. This time you are more willing to be open and honest with each other and whatever forced you apart now seems to be the source that brings you both back together again. A heart-to-heart will sweep any remaining traces of antagonism away.
At home, good planning is your key to happiness and contentment. Think carefully about what you want from your family life in general and then work steadily and patiently toward those goals over the next few months.
The stars caution you about a good opportunity that falls in your lap from out of the blue in April. Someone could be trying to manipulate you for their own selfish reasons so be on your guard.
Take another look at an irritating problem that has so far defied solution. With a little imagination and divergent thinking, you could come up with the ideal answer and you will wonder why you never thought of it before.
Friendships in 2009
New friends or commitments will get you thinking along new lines in July and August. There may, however, be times when you might be troubled with memories you would rather forget or phobias triggered by a past event. You can deal with these successfully now by seeing them for what they are – past and gone – and refusing to allow them to interfere with your future.
Likewise, if you are feeling a little sentimental, living in romantic memories and times-gone-by, this could have an adverse effect on a current relationship. You can’t recreate past experiences, no matter how hard you try. What you should be doing is creating happy memories now in the year 2009, to add to the store you already have.
End of Year Forecast for Rat Born People
The end of the year could be a bit of a strange time if you are undergoing any sort of test or examination. You might feel as if you haven’t done very well only to get results that outdo anything you have attempted so far in a similar vein.
Finally, a sought after social invitation could come your way at the very end of the year 2009 via a friend of a friend.
