The
year of the pig will bring much disagreement on an international
basis
Chinese
Astrology Forecast for Global Issues in 2007
by Elaine Fung
2007 is a year
with countless gossips and arguments. There are dispute everywhere,
on every level. The people have their own fights and the nature has
its own conflicts.
The trigram
that represents the world's luck in 2007 is 'Xian'. The Xian trigram
represents the communion between the two genders and the connection
between the heaven and earth. On the up side, it means
understanding. On the down side, it may turn into arguments related
to romantic affairs.
The trigram
has the change on its fourth stroke, meaning the imbalance of Yin
and Yang energy. That's why the world is filled with arguments and
gossips. The fourth stroke is also where human stands according to
legends. That explains why most important fights and disputes happen
between human beings not nations.
Communication
could make people feel good if it's not forced upon those concerned.
Imposed mandatory communication is horrifying and repulsive. The
arguments among human tend to happen behind closed doors. For
instance, the U.S., China and even a small piece of land like Macau
would have to deal with their internal conflicts. Their people would
keep arguing on and on.
The Xian
trigram just gives a general impression of the state of matters,
without revealing the details. Yet, more details are disclosed by
its subsidiary trigram 'Xiao Guo', the fifth stroke of which says,
'Overcast without rain; clouds from the Western outskirt; crisis of
the new sovereign just like an animal caught in its cave.' From a
pessimistic point of view, the text can be interpreted as a major
incident is in the making. No matter how hard someone tries to hide,
he/she would still be discovered by those strong and powerful. This
is especially for those countries which seal themselves completely
from the rest of the world; and those which haven't been recognized
internationally.
Those
internationally wanted by the police, because of criminal offences,
political issues and terrorism, would be arrested in 2007. Certain
countries or regions would also be threatened by external forces.
On the other
hand, certain objects or people that have long been forgotten; and
those items with profound historical significance would be
prioritized once again this year.
In terms of
global economy, those less affluent countries would see more
resources and national growth in 2007.
Finally,
accidents are likely to occur to structures or geographic formations
situated on great height, such as satellites, mountains, houses or
bridges.
What is
Chinese astrology? Chinese Astrology is one of the most ancient
philosophies still in existence today. The Chinese Astrology uses
the Chinese calendar, which was invented in the 27-22 century B.C.
by Emperor Yellow or known as Yellow Lord (Huangdi).
In ancient
China and up till today, Astrology has been used to predict what
happens to countries, the outcome of wars; weather of the year;
economic trends, fortune of people and much more.
One complete
cycle of the zodiac takes 60 years, which composes the arrangement
of a heavenly stem and an earthly branch. The year 2000 marks the
17th year in the 78th cycle.
The animals
signs are commonly known because of the legend of the Jade emperor
summon the 12 animals (Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse,
Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig ) for a race. However, the
configurations of the heavenly stems and earthly branches are much
more important for astrology.
