Each year, without fail; there will always be an increased interest in fortune, feng shui and predictions for the upcoming year as we draw nearer towards Chinese New Year. Whilst I would usually flip through the newspapers or magazines to read the summary, I went one step further this year. Thanks to a friend who had persistently recommended me to buy Lillian Too’s guidebook, I got hold of the “2007 Fortune & Feng Shui for Sheeps” which is a personal guidebook for those born in the year of sheep. The book supposedly offers a blueprint for the year’s activities with predictions of good and bad month in the areas of work & career, wealth & business, love & friendship, family & children as well as school & education. It also has a section titled “Enhancing Luck” which provides advice on how to use symbolic enhancers so the year becomes trouble-free. For less than RM20, I doubt we can ask for anything more than what this book already consists of.
The reason, I am scribbling all these down is not to show my prowess in introducing a book as I have no intentions to be doing book reviews. However, I am enthralled with the predictions that are in-store in the upcoming lunar year that starts on February 4th for those born under the Sheep animal sign. As a matter of personal interest, my babblings would revolve mainly around those born between 28 Jan 1979 to 15 Feb 1980 which is the year of the Earth Sheep. To all those lucky enough to be brought to the world during this time, fasten your seatbelt and be prepared for an awesome year as Lillian Too says that, “2007 is the year where the Sheep is truly blessed. Sheeps are the singular most successful animal sign of the year 2007, when everything combines just right to provide the perfect backdrop for success. There is little that will come in your way of achieving victory and success.” In other words, almost nothing can go wrong and almost everything we touch would turn to gold.
Career wise, Sheeps would have a great year and 2007 brings the opportunity for those born in the year of Earth Sheep to “go for the big league and play for large stakes.” Having started working several years back, it’s about time the Earth Sheep unearths his or her true potential and show the rest what they are really capable of. Bosses would be impressed whilst peers would be full of deep respect with the results that are bound to be brought in. 2007 would most likely see promotions and high increments on top of a “silent acknowledgement” that you are now in the big league which separates the boys from the men. For those running their own business, new opportunities might come along and the advice is to be always on the lookout for these hard-to-come-by instances and start socializing more to expand your network.
This year would also hear plenty of “Wedding Bells” for those who have been attached for a while and the stars are just right for what would be a blissful wedded life. Singles need not despair for there will be abundant of options and if one is still single by the end of the year, it’s probably about time to re-look your expectations. Attractive singles of the opposite gender would come flocking towards the Earth Sheep this year and all the sheep would have to do is to make choices. Hmmmm….. I wonder how accurate this is???
When it comes to the other areas such as family, friendship, health etc etc, the luck of the Sheep knows no bounds and there will be no major upsets. This sounds like a paragraph from a children’s fairy tale that never fails to have a happy ending but according to Lillian, this is what the Sheep should be expecting. Certain months would be much better than others and the great months would be Feb, Apr, June, Sept, Oct and Nov whilst Mar, May and July are supposed to be slower months where it is advisable to lay low. Nonetheless, Sheeps can expect nothing less than a “rocking year!” To ensure that all this comes true, Lillian of course does recommend some luck enhancers like placing a golden monkey on top of a golden horse on the office desk or to wear what is called a 21-eyed Tzi. This is just to name a few out of the many other luck enhancers that could be bought at World of Feng Shui… What else would you expect for this lady needs to make some fortune too.
Having finished reading the predictions, I am in a confused state of disbelief for the predictions seem too good to be true. It would be great if everything I were to touch would turn into gold but I doubt that would be the case for I would still need to get up every morning and turn up at work. It would be awesome if attractive singles of the opposite gender would come approaching me but I doubt that would be the case too. In a nutshell, I am definitely taking the predictions with a pinch of salt but I might probably start believing it if by the end of 2007, I have been promoted, got a big increment, hanging out with the big boys and going out with an attractive partner. In the meantime, life goes on as usual but I am definitely eagerly anticipating the months ahead and hopefully, Lillian is right.
