In a little less than one month (Feb 3, 2011) the Chinese will usher in their New Year. People will be saying goodbye to the Year of the Tiger and welcoming in the Year of the Rabbit. My boss gets really excited about celebrating the New Year as his paternal side of the family still lives in China, for the most part. He visits them once a year, which I think is pretty cool. So, before the celebration begins I wanted to find out what this New Year will bring.
Knowing that my friend AJ2008 would have probably already done some extensive research on the topic, I visited her profile page to see if she had written anything about it yet. She had not let me down! Sure enough she has published The Year Of The Rabbit explaining the significance of the rabbit in the Chinese Horoscope. Reading her article you will find out about the personality of a person born under the sign of the rabbit. AJ also explains about the elemental connection associated with each animal sign that rules over a year. I will let you read what she has to say about which element (water, wood, fire, earth, or metal) will influence 2011.
After reading AJ's article, I'll be able to talk with my boss about not only celebrating the Chinese New Year but the astrological significance of the rabbit and what that might mean for this coming year. I don't know about you, but I find this all very fascinating. Perhaps you have a friend or acquaintance who is from the Chinese culture and you could share what you have read about the coming New Year with them.

This sounds so interesting and I know nothing about it. I was thinking of AJ when I read the title and will visit her page. Thanks, Bev, for the info.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for featuring my lens about The Year of the Rabbit Bev.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I have not said anything on the lens yet, my first grandchild is due around the end of January so the Chinese New Year will have a very special significance for my family. Baby will either be a tiger or a rabbit!
Loved the video with the rabbit and cat friends! ...AJ sure knows her astrology! And AJ a grandparent. I know she can hardly wait!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful review of an equally wonderful lensmaster. I have found that "AJ" and "Research" are synonymous - I bet her picture is in the dictionary next to the research entry, she is so good!!
ReplyDeleteAs usual, it is a well thought out, educational and interesting lens. I read the tiger one but had not seen the rabbit yet. Thanks for pointing it out Bev!!
I agree, Bev, that AJ does a fabulous job in presenting both her year of the tiger and now year of the rabbit information. It seems like a lot of people are fascinated by the concept.
