Question
Hi. My name is Jordan. I was born in the year of the rooster. 2011 is the year of the rabbit, which is not compatible with rooster, BUT my day and hour sign are pig and sheep. Do all the four pillars matter in a yearly horoscope or just the animal sign???

Answer
Hi Jordan,

The short answer to your question is the Four Pillars always matter. To get a full appreciation of any situation it's important to look at all four signs.

To be honest I haven't been taught or seen anything on this particular issue. I can only fall back on my first comment.

So I have to say yes, your year should not be as bad as you will see in horoscopes. I wouldn't, however, say your Pig and Sheep signs reverse things and actually make it a favorable one.

Looking at your chart overall, I'd say you could be facing an unfavorable year (but not a disastrous one) but can look forward to some very nice months, especially the months of the Ox, Snake and Pig.

Those are the times you want to take care of important things, big purchase, lengthy vacation, investment, job change, moving, engagement, whatever.

Just be sure you duck for cover in the month of the Rabbit. I don't think your Sheep and Pig are going to do much to offset a double Rabbit (year and month) working against your primary/Rooster year sign.

Please visit my web site, www.onlinechineseastrology.com to learn more about Chinese Astrology. Also, I do have my year of the Rabbit horoscope available at a modest charge if you'd like a detailed look at your fortune next year.


Thank u for your question.

Expertise

Chinese Astrology. I`ve done Chinese astrology for over 20 years, pimary experience Ming Shu style. I am NOT a psychic. I can't answer questions about when a particular event will occur, when/if your life will change, or what your spouse is going to be/look like. I do comment on relationships, career, personality analysis and life cycle chi, i.e., energy level and influences at each of the five stages of life. I evaluate specific relationships or can look at your love life in general. I can tell you your best career choices and whether the one you've chosen is good for you. And, I can identify the strong and weak times in your life. I've done work for Yahoo, astrology.com and onlinechineseastrology.com.

Experience

I've studied Chinese astrology for over 20 years now and done several thousand charts. My specialty is four pillars method, particularly as applied to evaluating relationships. I've also done Nine Star Ki and readings using Mah Jong tiles. My next step is to learn Purple Star astrology. It identifies many more chart details, but accurate readings are time consuming and dependent upon a lifetime of acquired experience.
