In researching alternatives titles for a Water Rooster day, I came across Black Chicken. If you've been following these blogs, you'll know why, but if you're new to them, black is the colour associated with the water element and a male chicken is of course, a Rooster.
Turns out, a black chicken is a “Silkie” and contains high levels of carnosine; a natural anti-oxidant that improves muscle strength and is said to alleviate the effects of ageing, autism and diabetes. It is also supposed to taste twice as nice as regular chicken and has been cultivated by the Chinese for over 1,000 years. Sadly, in the west it seems only available in supplement form, unless of course you know a farmer who keeps them.
That unfortunately is the only good news; todays Rooster clashes with the annual Rabbit sign and is known as the “Year Break”. Any major decisions affecting the year ahead should be made tomorrow and the Chinese almanac suggests just tidying up affairs or sweeping your home as the only suitable activities.
However, a Water Rooster is a less problematic clash because the water balances the two signs. In this case, Rooster signs will be the centre of attention and can be relatively carefree. It is also good for the associated signs of Snake and Ox, who share creativity. Snake signs also have wealth or wife potential, whilst the OX may have good investment opportunities. Rabbit signs may be under stress today, but share power opportunities with Tigers. The earth signs of Dragon, Goat and Dog should be relaxed and conversely, Pig and Rat signs will have lots of energy.
Until tomorrow – enjoy today
