Question
I own an advertising agency. I have two clients, husband and wife - both with two separate companies.  They both nickel and dime me to death!  The husband seems very attention deficit as well. Th ehusband wsa my first client; then his wife whom he referred.

This is the situation: the male client asked me to do, what he called "proposal" work for free (which actually should have been billable work) - but I did do it.  This took months.  He promised me the work.  After I e-mailed over the final proposal, I heard nothing back.  I called as a follow-up and he attacked me on the phone - saying that he had expected more and that he was disapointed!  I was shocked and basically I responded with how I was now disappointed!  He was very testy on the phone and said that everytime he asked for prices, it gets more expensive (I looked at the prior proposals and believe me this is not true)! After the bad phone call, I called back, feeling not right about it, asking for a meeting to talk about it.  He then jumped on me and called me "unprofessional."  I was again stunned and hurt!

I told his wife about this too.  She told me to just let him go as a client.

I haven't done anything more and coming up soon, I have a dinner I must attend for his wife (I nominated her for an award) and he will be there sitting at our table!

How do I react and what should I do?  I want to make ammends even though he was unprofessional.  Do you see this happening?  Also - do you see thsi woman abusing me and my time with regards to service?

Thank you so very much and God Bless.

Please help me.

Birthdate: April 13, 1960
Clients:  Robert, March 7; Marcia August 23 (years unknown, although they are in their late 40s to early 50s my guess)?  

Answer
Hi Pat,

Chinese astrology focuses on the year, whereas Western astrology focuses on the month. I therefore can't answer your question, but you might try a Western astrologer. Without a year and time they won't be able to be that specific, but they can offer some insight.

If you can find out a birth year, i'd be happy to help.

By the way, you were born during the year of the Metal Rat, month of the Metal Dragon and day of the Metal Sheep. If you want to learn about your signs, i highly recommend Theodora Lau's The Handbook of Chinese Horoscopes.

Also, please visit my website, www.firepig.com. While there sign up for the free (trial) subscription service. You will then have access to our relationship compatibility calculator and be able to check out any relationship you have, as long as you know the year, month and day of birth.

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.
