CHINESE NEW YEAR SPECIALS
YEAR OF THE SHEEP
The Sheep (Goat) is a Yin energy, a symbol of Peace, Harmonious
co-existence and Tranquility. That is the primary and fundamental
mood for this year. Though there are cries for War and a countdown
is soon to begin, if any almanac serves me well – War will be averted
and a period of mending and compromise will be undertaken to
ensure Peace is maintained.
