The Chinese Year Of The Rabbit..
If you are born under the Chinese sign of the Rabbit, you will
make a great diplomat! Rabbits are clean and neat, quiet and
often softly spoken. They dislike conflict and will go to great
lengths to avoid discord. Rabbits thrive in tranquil, harmonious
settings and become unhappy in noisy, argumentative company.
People born under this sign develop good diplomatic skills and
they are good at calming heated emotions. So much so that they
are often thrown into the kind of unsettled situations they so
dislike precisely because they have the skills to make the
peace. Rabbits are not particularly ambitious. They prefer a
comfortable settled life, but will readily accept
responsibility. They can be cunning but usually only in extreme
situations. Rabbit people are known for their good taste and
their homes will look immaculate and well maintained. There are
twelve Chinese year signs in the Chinese Zodiac. Unlike in our
western astrology, in Chinese astrology each sign lasts for a
year. Legend has it that as Buddha was about to depart the earth
he summoned all the animals to say goodbye. Only twelve turned
up so, to show his appreciation of their loyalty, he vowed that
from then on each year would bear the name of one of the
animals. Chinese astrology is based on the Lunar Calendar. This
means the Chinese New Year does not fall on the same day each
year and can vary by as much as 3 weeks. So for babies born in
late January/early February it is necessary to consult the
charts to determine the correct sign.
