Your fortunes in 2012
Although you will not be, you may feel somewhat cut off from others and find yourself having to compete in difficult circumstances. These challenges will result in opening you up to more helpful attitudes and mind set. Do curtail your sharp tongue and muffle your bark when hypocrisy strikes. Just let it be little doggy. Use diplomatic methods to soften situations. As the the objective guardian of the Chinese Astrological cycle, you prefer to function independently so that your mental acuity is not compromised. However, the Dragon employs an interdependent world view where all must work together in enforced harmony. Even if you can see the benefits and the fun to be had, this may not sit well with you as you believe in the right to choose. Early difficulties serve your interests in the latter part of the year and may have a lasting effect. Dog signs dislike change more than most but it is a necessary component of a healthy existence. Get ready for a radical change in your lifestyle, new friends, possible new career, more travel and a greater enthusiasm for your life.
