2007 : The Year of the Pig
The Chinese Calendar is known for being cyclical, and it is closely related to the cycle of the moon. For the Chinese, 2007 started around February 18, because this is the first day of the new phase of the moon. According to the Chinese calendar, 2007 was a year which had characteristics that were closely related to fire. Last year was also known as the year of the Pig, and the Pig is the final sign of the zodiac cycle for the Chinese. It will generally be controlled by the element known as water. But fire also played an important role in 2007.
According to the Chinese Calendar, while 2007 was a good year to finish projects from the previous year, it was a bad year to start any new projects. Both the Pig and Fire require you to go back, analyze any projects you did in the previous year, and make calibrations to them to make sure you can reach your goals, and get rid of anything which has not been completed. This isn't just confined to business or education, as it can also apply to your personal life as well. Last year was also considered to be an important time to prepare for 2008, which is known as the year of the Rat.
During 2007, the calendar would have required you to make detailed preparations for the things you wanted in the future. For entreprenuers and people who own their own businesses, the good news about 2007 from the perspective of the Chinese calendar is that it was a great year for business. The Pig is known for being quite aggressive when it comes to scams and things of this nature, and if you were involved in any type of fraud or scams in 2007, it is said that you will suffer greatly from it. Another attribute of 2007 is that it was the year in which people faced a large number of dilemmas.
Perhaps you noticed last year that you were forced to make a number of tough decisions, or you had to make choices between which side to join. The Pig would find favor on those who are able to keep their minds open, who can express themselves to others about the feelings they have. The 2007 year according to the Pig was not a good year to try to take shortcuts, or to hide your feelings from others. Instead, last year was the year in which you would have been rewarded if you picked goals that suited you well.
If you followed the rules last year which I listed above, there is a good chance that 2007 was a year of prosperity for you. A number of new opportunities would have likely presented themselves, and if you took advantage of these opportunities, they would have made an imprint on your life for the better, and they would have given you the resources which would have allowed you to make better decisions in 2008.
