True, the Dragon's pace isn't as comfortable as that of the Rabbit.
And yes, this year could be a bit more challenging for you than the last
one. But come on, you're looking at seven favorable months! You'll have
plenty of opportunities to do what you want and go where you like --
and be successful while you're at it. For now, it's all about timing.
Pick your spots, plan celebrations, make big trips and start new
projects during your favorable months. And when the unfavorable ones
roll around, head for the comfort of your Rabbit hole, where you can
avoid risk, spend time with the people you trust the most, and be
comfortable with the old while waiting to start the new.
Career
Oh boy. The Dragon is always tempting everyone to make big changes
and take huge leaps ... but this really isn't the time for you to follow
in his footsteps. Things will shift and change a whole lot in 2012, so
your job will be to find steady ground and hang on for dear life. Stay
within your areas of expertise. Do what you're good at and what will
generate the most money. Don't implement any big business ideas or
career moves just yet; if you insist on doing so, wait until your lucky
months to make changes. Persistent effort should pay off.
Relationships
Are you on edge about your love life? Indeed, Dragon years have that
type of effect. For you, the Dragon's passion and impulsiveness are a
little unnerving, as you prefer when people are calm and act rationally.
Luckily, Water gives relationships a boost by helping with
communication. The good news is the Dragon favors marriage and
celebrations. Do you hear wedding bells? This could be your year to take
the big leap into love. If you're single, 2012 could be a roller
coaster of interesting dates and several different relationships. Be
cautious about professing your love right away -- the Dragon loves
passion, but it can be fleeting. Hang on tightly and try to enjoy the
ride!
Health
It's possible your nervous tendencies could be heightened this year,
so make sure you take care of yourself and your mental state. The
Dragon's devil-may-care attitude probably makes you quiver; you can also
expect others to act slightly crazy and unpredictable. Make time for
quiet introspection and ensure your home is a place of refuge. If you
have the energy, take up a high-intensity activity such as Bikram yoga
or marathon-running. Channel nervous energy into healthy outlets, and
keep an eye on your nutrition. After all, the Dragon tends to overdo it
and indulge.
Wealth
You probably don't need any warnings about your finances -- after
all, you certainly have a way with money. If you can remain savvy about
your finances, you might even do well this year -- that is, if you're
able to avoid the Dragon's influence for big risks and impulsive
purchases. It could be tempting to make costly home upgrades or book an
expensive vacation. Use your lucky months for any necessary big
spending, but don't go crazy with it.
