This is only a general perspective guide for the twelve earthly branches of the Chinese almanac for February 2005 (Yang Earth Tiger month). In this, I have attempted to point out the factors that may affect you beneficially this month and also those of which you should beware according to your animal sign. The effect on individuals should be considered within the context of the monthly Flying Stars which you can find by clicking this link

Please do not think that because, for example, you are a Rabbit and you read below that February 2005 will not be good you will therefore have a bad month. No. A positive attitude and hard work combined with knowledge of what the month ahead has in store for you will enable you to avoid many problems and disappointments. If you follow our annual 2005 Flying Star (Xuan Kong) recommendations you will avoid bad luck even more because negative Flying Star avoidance alters your destiny in a positive way.

Rat

Rat will do well this month but you may find yourself running in circles in whatever you do. This could be due to unscrupulous people working behind your back putting obstacles in your way and making it difficult for you accomplish your tasks as smoothly as you would like. Do not allow any small problems to cause you to panic or become stressed.

You should stay focussed and avoid any direct confrontations especially if your room or office is in the south sector of the house. In this case, you should place a red item in the south for the month of February.

For your protection, you should have a key chain pendant of an Ox with you at all times. You can also place a little statue of an Ox on your work desk for support.

Your lucky sector is the North (352.5º – 7.5º) of the home or office. For this month, if this north room is one of your frequently used rooms, you should place some small blue decorative ornaments or blue furnishing such as blue cushions or use water motifs beddings or cushion covers. A few items are enough. Please do not overdo it.

Beneficial colours for the Rat in the year
2005 are orange, yellow and green. Avoid grey, blue and white colours
if you can.

Ox

This is a busy month for Ox and, as long as you are organised and co-operate well with others, all will go well. However, this is not a good month to tempt fate by celebrating success too early so do wait for the chickens to hatch before counting them.

For your protection, you should have a key chain pendant of a Rat with you at all times.

Although your lucky sector is the North-Northeast (22.5º – 37.5º) of the home or office, the northeast sector, this month, is visited by the monthly sickness star #2. You would be well advice to avoid using the northeast room or corner of the room during the month. If avoidance is impossible, place some metal cure for instance a golden Wu-Lou or six Chinese coins in these two corners.

If this is your study or bedroom, and there are no other rooms available, try your utmost not to occupy the east or west sector of the room. Make use of the north or south sectors of the room instead. In addition, hang a wooden Wu-Lou, in the east corner of the room or your bed.
