Feng Shui and Chinese Astrology seminar in San Francisco
Should you be in the location of San Francisco on March 13th, then there is a seminar on Feng Shui, Chinese astrology and using both to adapt to changes in your life in 2011. Details are here. I don't really know too much about it myself as I just came across it whilst browing the internet! But looks interesting and I'd definitely give it a try if I were in the US :)

Weekly Chinese Horoscope
Here's your weekly Chinese Horoscope for week beginning 21/02/2011 - in other words TODAY!
Rat - Work on your people skills this week! Something seems to come out wrong whenever you try to help and all your good intentions wil go out the window. So best to just tone it down anyway to avoid getting into trouble with your nearest and dearest.
Ox - Sentimentality doesn't always come easily to you so it's no surprise when you find yourself a little clumsy when these feelings wash over you this week. I'm sure everyone will realise what you are trying to say really!
Tiger - If you have been busy lately you may have not spent the time connecting with your inner self. If you are now aware of what the symptoms of this might be, consider whether you are feeling distracted and a bit antsy. If so, some quiet, thoughtful contemplation is in order.
Rabbit - Don't give in to your flighty side this week. You may feel like avoiding the more boring chores or obligations but they are only going to pile up and get you into trouble later on.
Dragon - A quiet week for you would be welcome as there is a slightly more tranquil energy around you than is normal for the normally dynamic Dragon!
Snake - You're always ultra cautious by nature but this week your instincts seem to be set on high alert. Try to relax if you can, you'll wear yourself out.
Horse - There is a lovely feeling of being rewarded for all you have done for others this week. Bask in the attention, it is well deserved.
Sheep - There is a possibility of you being a little better off financially this week but this is not always a good thing with the more shopping mad of the Sheep out there - do try to be sensible!
Monkey - Work is important to the Monkey this week. Work is almost always important to the Monkey of course but there could well be more than usual happening right now.
Rooster - This is a time for exercising caution for Roosters this week. There could be people around you who are not acting in your interests and will go about this by flattering your ego. Resist.
Dog - For those born in the year of the Dog, this is a good time to make decisions. You will be alert and keen and just in the right frame of mind to do so.
Boar - A creative and productive week for you Boars! There will be something about all you do this week that will seem like an awful lot of fun and not so much like work. Long may this continue.

Weekly Chinese Horoscope - 14/02/11
Woohoo, it's Valentine's this week! So what has our Chinese Love Horoscope got in store for us in this most romantic time of the year?
Rat - Connections are very important for you this week, whether they be love or work or just your friends. So enjoy spending quality time with anyone and everyone who is important to you.
Ox -For any single Oxes this week, your energies are good for meeting someone or drawing people to you. So this is as good a time as any to set up a date!
Tiger - There is a bold feeling to the Tigers of the world at the moment and they are a forced to be reckoned with. So if you particular need to try and influence anyone, then now is the time to give it a try.
Rabbit - The Rabbit does not like direct confrontation normally so the fact that arguments may spring up this week means that things must have been building up. Try to find a resolution to stop things getting out of hand.
Dragon - The Dragon faces a lot of opportunities if they are single and so there is no need to spend Valentine's alone. Just use that confidence and bravado of yours to help you overcome any nerves.
Snake - If you're feeling lonely this week then try not to rush into any relationships that you feel are not actually right for you. Your time will come, don't worry.
Horse - Sometimes your impetuous nature can get you into trouble, but this week you feel the need to be diplomatic. It will be very much appreciated.

Monkey - A lot catches up with you this week, it's time to work out where you go from here and what you want to do in the coming months.
Rooster - There'll be a spring in your step this week and you will feel that anything is possible. So it's the time to maximise all opportunities that come your way - seeing as you will be feeling so invincible!
Dog - You have an all or nothing attitude this week. It'll really get things moving along in the right direction but you do need to be careful to listen to the suggestions of others too.
Boar - There's a risk of you getting ahead of yourself this week. It's not that you shouldn't really go for it, but you do need to make sure that you don't rush and make unnecessary mistakes.

Chinese Horoscope - The Year of the Rabbit!
It's very nearly the year of the White/Metal Rabbit - February 2011 is here! And so what can we expect on terms of our Chinese horoscopes and, more specifically, our Chinese Love Horoscopes?
As far as Chinese Love Horoscopes are concerned, we all in luck - the Rabbit signifies love and romance. With its lively but kind nature, the rabbit brings the softy out in all of us and makes us susceptible to cupid's bow. The good news is that because the Chinese Astrology Rabbit is so liked and favoured by everyone, it is likely that this will touch upon all of our lives at some point this year. The only ones who will be furthest from the Rabbit's energies are the Roosters. But they are strong enough to cope I'm sure ;)
What Influence Does the Metal Element Have in the Year of the Rabbit?
The metal rabbit is a little more tough and tencious than other rabbits. There is a determination within that may not be immediately obvious but you'd do well to take the metal rabbit seriously in your dealings with them. For the rest of us, it's good news though! This means that 2011 will be the time to fight for what you want, that there is a strong energy behind us a a force to motivate us to get all we deserve.
Another fine trait of the metal rabbit is to like the finer things in life, to be a little indulgent. It may not be all about money which is for the best in such austere times as we are living in now. But take this as encouragement to enjoy the beauty in life, make this the year you slow down a little and take in the simple pleasures.
But because of their slightly more sturdy natures, the metal rabbit is not as fluffy and cute as he/she may appear so this year we must all be wary of letting jeaousy or moodiness take over.
Which Signs Will Benefit Most From the Year of the Metal Rabbit?
Because of their similar natures, the Boar and the Dog may do extra well this year. This is because they have the sensitivity to thrive in these energies and can find themselves moving forwards where previously they have found themseves at a standstill.
If 2011 is the Year for Love Can I Expect Anything Good for my Career?
Yes, absolutely. It's the determination and steel of the metal rabbit that you need to try to look for or even emulate. To persevere when you feel like giving up, to believe in yourself even when you face setbacks. You may not see quick returns for your efforts but you will feel all the more proud for what you achieve in the long run.
So Happy Year of the Metal Rabbit - hope it's a great one for you! xx

Half-way through the year of the Metal Tiger!
So, we are nearly half-way through the vibrant and dynamic Metal Tiger year of 2010 (going through to 2011 but we don't want to think about that far off lol). So what should you have seen so far and what will can you expect?
Year of the Metal Tiger So Far
Well, the Metal Tiger is all about courage and quick-thinking and so this would have been a good time to make all the decisions you've been putting off over the previous years. You are likely to have seen situations that practically pushed you forward with these too, leaving little room to back out. With such pressure though, comes a few temperamental moods though so it's possible your temper has flared a few times - recognise this?!
The best way to counter these feelings is to make sure that you keep your eye on the main goal up ahead. By this time of the year you will start to get a clearer picture of what you want to achieve, even if it's just the seeds of a few ideas.
What's To Come in the Year of the Metal Tiger?
Achieving those goals! Career is likely to be the main benefactor of this new drive and energy but love or a renewed feeling of closeness in an existing relationship can follow. This is because you will be increasing your confidence and getting a better sense of who you are.
Love tends to thrive in these conditions and you will notice that you get more attention and there are more opportunities. You may feel there is an urge to jump in feet first but don't be too rash - take your time and don't let any one area of your life take over too much. You may feel like you want it all now, but you may not be ready for it all yet!
