Yearly Prediction for the Dragon

Jan. 26, 2009 - Feb. 13, 2010

Although you won't have much opportunity to sparkle and shine during the Year of the Earth Ox, you'll experience sizable gains. It's all a matter of pacing yourself -- slow and steady wins the race in 2009. Mastering the art of persuasion will help you in every area of life. Cultivate your powers of seduction; learn how to sell ice cubes to Eskimos. Convincing others to do your bidding will be more effective than using brute force. It may be necessary to take orders from others this year. This doesn't sit well with an authoritative person like you. However, being of service will make you a better employee, friend, parent and lover. Learning how to be a good team player could put you in line for a promotion next year.

Egotistical Dragons, on the other hand, stand a good risk of getting fired. It's possible you could be accident-prone this year, so drive carefully, avoid contact sports and steer clear of violent people. You'll have plenty of opportunities to push the envelope in 2010. The Ox year also favors self-improvement ventures of all kinds. Getting a physical trainer, professional guru or life coach can work wonders if you follow this person's advice to the letter. Never fear; you'll be able to exhibit your star power next year. For now, however, you need to hide your light under a bushel.
