Rat sits Astride fire cycle

Now that’s a title you don’t hear every day! What does it mean? Well firstly it is a Fire Rat day and every rat day starts a new twelve day cycle in the Chinese zodiac. Having five different types of rats we can classify these cycles according to the element preceding Rat. That makes today the start of a fire cycle. So there you go, no animals were hurt in the writing of this blog.

As the fire element can be likened to action these next twelve days should see lots of activity on the world stage. It is definitely time to put plans into action. Following this theme the Chinese almanac suggests most activities are favourable today, especially travelling, getting engaged, having a haircut, sweeping house, buying or making clothes, seeing a doctor or choosing a treatment, emigrating, opening a business and trading, refurbishing a home or office, moving earth, fixing a roof, buying or setting direction for your door, bed or oven, or else setting up a tombstone.

In the twenty eight lunar mansions today is an Astride day better for garments that it is for digging. To see how your own sign is affected today see our dedicated Fire Rat web page. We will return tomorrow on a Fire Ox day.

Until then, enjoy NOW!
