Monkey shine melts “Big Snow” in Rat race

Wow a lot going on today and not just in our office. We begin with it being a Fire Monkey day and as fire glistens or shines, you can see how we derived inspiration for our title. It can also refer to a dispute amongst friends and today sees the start of the Rat month, where the Rat and annual Rabbit have never quite seen eye to eye.

Luckily, any disagreement is balanced by the Monkey and Rat being part of the same group and considered pals. In fact, a Dragon completes this combination and produces a very strong and usually favourable reaction. See if you have one in your chart with our free Chinese horoscope. Race refers to a monthly cycle and usually marks a huge effort to ready ourselves for the festivities ahead.

Today also sees the start of a new fifteen day period called quite literally “Big Snow”. Chinese philosophy has noted over millennia that in the northern hemisphere we traditionally get larger snowfalls at this time. Consequently, you may want to prepare your home and car for the possibility of more challenging weather conditions ahead. Although, looking out of my office window, I am reminded again of the shine in today's title, this time prefixed by “sun” and all thoughts of this melt away.

The Chinese almanac is taking a well-earned rest and only recommends preparation as today's suitable activity. It advises against having anything to do with fire; except for keeping warm that is.

To see how your own sign is affected today see our dedicated Fire Monkey web page and we will return tomorrow on a Red Rooster day.

Until then, enjoy NOW!
