Question
Dear Mr. Hajdu,

For the last 28 years, I have had a career in education, mainly teaching high school students, then in more recent years forming and developing different curricula. Recently, however, I really have been thinking about changing my career to something my relaxing and stimulating. I sometimes think the educational world is falling apart do to disorganization and stingy funding. Anyways, I was curious to know what the Chinese Astrology says about possible careers. Thanks very much.

My birth data: May 27, 1949 at 12:52 AM in Chattanooga, TN, USA

Answer
Hi Frederic,

You were born in the year of the Earth Ox, month of the Earth Snake, day of the Fire Snake and hour of the Metal Rat.

Here is what Lori Reid, one of my favorite experts, has to say about the Ox and career:

"Capable and honest, and conscientious, Ox people toil single-mindedly at their chosen task. Colleagues will marvel at their methodical approach and rely on their high standards. They enjoy routine and are efficient and well organized at work, and particularly well-suited to occupations that allow them to specialize. They actually prefer working for large corporations, as such organizations offer the security the Ox person requires, bu they nevertheless work best alone within these companies, since Oxen can be rigid in their views and unhappy working as part of a group."

The strongest element in your chart is Earth, with Fire a close second. You would be happier with a job that involves doing more than desk work, especially something with a lot of writing. Something to do with the Earth would be good, such as landscape architecture or gardening (hobby anyway). Feng Shui practitioner might be good. Security guard is another possibility, as is medical lab technician. You're about my age, so options could be limited---hard to say. If you were younger, i'd recommend the police or military. City planning is also indicated.
