Blessings from the “glorious twelve”?


Today is the 12th day of the 12th month in the 12th year of the century, which to me suits the term “glorious” better than its usual reference as the start of the Red Grouse hunting season. The number 12 is highly significant in Chinese astrology, where it refers to the Chinese animals or zodiac signs and our (mostly) daily blog interprets their effect on your personal horoscopes. Of course, we also look at other systems such as the 28 Lunar Mansions and the 12 Palaces, all of which bring blessings on this Fire Sheep day.

Consequently, the Chinese almanac recommends meditating or honouring ancestors, asking for blessings, getting engaged, having an astrology reading, trading, refurbishing a home or office, laying foundations and buying or setting a direction for a bed as today’s most suitable activities. It advises against hair styling or funeral duties.

Those with a Fire Sheep in their horoscope, or indeed any sheep or goat sign, should be feeling positively buoyant today. Although they do need to be careful of “lip service” and should check the small print when signing contracts. Their group includes Pig and Rabbit signs, who can respectively gain power and wealth today.

The Sheep also benefits Horse signs who find self-expression and creativity. It is also good for travelling, but not “racing” as they may tire easily. Conversely, the opposing group of Snake, Rooster and Ox may see change today. The Ox is most susceptible, as it is in a direct clash that may result in stomach issues. 

Famous celebrities with Fire Sheep influence include Kurt Cobain, Benicio del Toro, Prince Pavlos of Greece, Noel Gallagher, Nicole Kidman, Pamela Anderson, Will Ferrell, Vin Diesel, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Matt LeBlanc, Julia Roberts, Rufus Sewell , Carla Bruni, Steve Zahn, Sophia Bush, Matthew O'Leary. Also included is anyone born in the Fire Sheep year of 1967 and those born between July 7th and August 8th in years that end with 2 or 7, (for example 1982 or 1997).

Further information is available on our dedicated Fire Sheep web page and we will return tomorrow with a Yellow Monkey.
Until then, enjoy moment of NOW!
