Chakeeta's
CHINESE HOROSCOPES
The Chinese believe that the events of the years
are affected by cosmic influences in a cyclical 12-year pattern, which the
ancient astrologers discovered was linked to Jupiter's orbit around the Sun. Over
time, it was observed that people born in each particular year were similarly affected
by these influences, and moreover, that people born in the same year shared
characteristics and personality traits that were significantly different to those
people born in other years. When the years of the twelve-year cycle were given their
names, it was no accident, then, that the ancient sages chose the Animals they did
to symboloze the years, for each was judged to embody most aptly the collective
characteristics associated with the year it represented.
By understanding the Animal governing our year of birth we can gain powerful
insights into our own personalities, our talents and abilities, our likes and
dislikes, our relationships and preferred way of life. But in getting to know our
"Animal nature" we must bear in mind that the Chinese have a very different attitude
from ours to many of these animals. In our journey through the Chinese horoscopes,
we must remember, therefore, not to judge the Animals with our Western preconceptions,
but to learn their true significance as seen through Oriental eyes.
2001 - YEAR OF THE SNAKE
After the dramas of the Year of the Dragon, Snake Years
come as watershed periods, restoring order and bringing comparative peace. In these
years we can quietly draw breath and slowly reassess our situation. It would be
wise not to take anything on trust, however. Duplicity is in the air and it is
advisable to read the small print carefully. Treachery, political machinations, and
conspiracy will be rife, and international affairs are likely to be peppered with
shady dealings. As the Snake is a symbol of fertility, issues of conception and
morality will be aired and headlines will reveal sex scandals in high places.
Snake years herald an economic upturn and money markets, the arts, and communications
will be buoyant. The fashion-conscious will favour sophistication.
