Celebrating the Chinese New Year in 2018
The Year of the Dog
Chinese
Zodiac Dog
Occupying
the 11th position in the Chinese Zodiac, the Dog symbolizes character
traits such as loyalty, compatibility and kindness.
Dogs frequently
offer kind words and useful advice, always listening and lending a
shoulder when necessary. Dogs often become deeply involved in others’
lives and are sometimes perceived as nosy. Ensuring others are happy
is more important to the Dog than wealth, money or success.
Dogs
are determined individuals; always wanting to master a new subject
before moving on and always finishing what they start. Dogs value
friendships; they’re loyal, honest, trustworthy and reliable and
have strong morals and ethics.
A
well-kept, organized home is very important. Keeping a clean home and
helping at work stems from the Dog’s need to be active and
involved. Dogs spend money wisely, passing on luxury goods in favor
of practical items. Dogs also prefer saving money to cover future
expenses.
Dogs
at times can also be temperamental, narrow-minded and stubborn. When
this happens, the Dog takes off alone in order to make things right
again inside its head. Dogs can benefit by learning to relax and
being more rational.
Health
A
happy Dog is a healthy Dog and it’s easy to tell by the Dog’s sad
or depressed appearance that it’s not feeling right. Dogs are
resilient, especially when fighting illness.
Relationships
Although
Dogs are trustworthy, they have trouble trusting others. It can take
a long time before a Dog feels at ease with another person. When Dogs
don’t build trust they’re judgmental and rough towards others.
When
it comes to romance Dogs often have a tough time. Others are often
scared off by the Dog’s insecure, worrisome and frequently anxious
nature. Dogs are known to be cold emotionally and critical.
Career
Coworkers
can always count on Dogs to help out, especially if it means the Dog
will learn something new or alleviate the workload of others. Dogs
are seen as valuable employees. Good career choices for Dogs include:
police officer, scientist, counselor, interior designer, professor,
politician, priest, nurse, clerk and Judge.
