How Will Horse Affect You In 2002?
by Janice A. Stork, Astrologer
Chinese Astrology depicts the Horse year as one that brings exciting adventures. Since the horse is free spirited, romances will be fun loving and care free.
Horse is a working animal so it will put people to the task of working hard in their careers. As a result this can bring about financial gains and public recognition for a job well done. However, it will be more important than ever to learn the meaning of the word balance in life otherwise health problems will surface from exhaustion.
Horses have a good sense of smell. So, when the winds of change are in the air be sure to follow your intuition.
Many people will find themselves taking steps in their life that will give them more freedom of expression. Restraint and restrictions from people or situations will no longer be tolerated as they once were. When we can no longer tolerate something in our lives we will make changes and that is what this year is about.
How the Year of the Horse will affect your Chinese Sign.
RAT
Horses can be frightened by a rat so it will be important for to be cautious at this time and not tempt fate in romance or career matters. There will be an inclination toward careless expenditures or overextending oneself but it is better to be conservative at this time.

This wisdom will be called upon to help them later.

DRAGON

Hard work will bring success this year.
SNAKE

Horse will energetically encourage Snake to venture off into unknown territory and use new approaches at this time that can lead to success and happiness.
