Your fortunes in 2012
Slow to start for you, the Dragon year finds you attempting to glue the pieces of a broken mirror together. But the vision in the mirror will never be quite the same again; it may be wise to accept that now. In addition, there may be negative influences around who complicate issues further. Keep your attention on what you can do to improve the situation rather than responding reactively. Finances might be strained in the early part of the year but things improve dramatically later. You may take on multiple projects, get involved in altruistic activities and may spend much of your time away from your loved ones. The Dragon is anything but dull, and it’s year is similarly drama filled which you will find out. You will be challenged, your love life could see some complications, yet it will be a thoroughly fulfilling time. Expect some happy surprises, some note able success in business, writing or communication and potentially radical changes in your lifestyle. Get stuck in, get your fingers dirty and let the laughter consume you.
