Whiskers twitching? A new model of cat trap now on the market? How good can it get? A philosopher was once asked three questions: do you have any rats in that trap? Do you have some rats in that trap? Do you have rats in that trap? The answers were no, no, and yes. We can’t explain any Moore, except to say that you’re going to have a fine year, and that this very word could be polyse-mouse.

The odd, chipped tooth? A tail with a blue cheese flag waving in a maddening breeze? Fur sprayed with an essence of cat food? All likely outcomes from letting the Heaven’s Discomfort Star have its way with you. A small sour point in a year that otherwise looks a little like an unending buffet of delectable cheeses. Consec-rat-e your health! Align all the whiskers of the year into a comprehensive hamony-mouse-ness, and laugh your way to health.
Fancy a year in an enor-mouse palace? An imperial courtyard features magnolias (yulan) and crabapples (haitang). The yu and the tang, by homophony, refer to the yutang, or Jade Hall, and this year you have the Jade Hall Star visiting. You’ll need to do some work on this yourself, by the way, nonetheless the star will be right there with you, when you paint your financial mouse-terpiece.
Picture yourself gy-rat-ing across the dance floor of love. You are the amor-mouse, and this year how much you want to be the monoga-mouse will be in your power. Find yourself alone with someone keen on mice and you should find yourself clicking along. We think secret trysts with loved ones might be on the menu; carried out somewhere away from research scientists, the main cause of rattus unhappiness, or so the stars suggest.
The stars are unani-mouse: the hamster wheel can pay dividends. Sadly this year might be a case in point. Get yourself the work version of a rewards points meter and watch the needle tick over toward the higher echelons. Points off for those who decide that work meetings are a suitable venue for a blasphe-mouse, mind your tongue and use your mouse-nous.
