The Zodiac

What sign are you?

And who shares it with you?

Overall

Your outside might be mostly hide, but this year the fates decree that you are sacred. Your ascent up the cow path, strewn with the pats and dung that your enemies are now covered in, will have you lowing in pleasure. You get to take yourself by the horns, and it’s cream and banana pie for you. Milk it for all it is worth.

Health

In the first half, some of your plumbing might still be plumbing the depths that the Goat reduced you to last year. Once the summer passes, you’ll be like a bull at a gate. You will be the “live-stock”, and your calves will be muscling out. Cattle raiding is off the menu - you have the constitution of an Ox.

Wealth

Your investments may need some gestation time, but they’re udder certainties. No gambling over the summer as you won’t hit the bull’s-eye, and come October you’ll want to steer clear of risks in case you get polled, what you’re seeing then may not be the veal thing.

Love

Moooon river . . . you can make eyes this year. Your investments in this area should last at least a Minotaur two longer than others. Establish the taurophilic temple and watch them leather themselves up: you are the tempting bovine, graze where you may.

Career

Bull in a China shop? Bull in any shop! The Tai Sui has gone, the land is yours until the cows come home, and you shan’t be cowed this year. No need for rumination, you can hoof it as soon as you’re ready. No need to beef up that resume; no need to blow on the longhorn; they’ve herd you this year and it’s a bull market.

Judgement
Biting Through has success. It is favourable to let justice be administered.

Image
Thunder and lightning: the image of Biting Through. The kings of former times made firm the laws through clearly defined penalties.

Line
Nine at the beginning means his feet are fastened in the stocks, so that his toes disappear. No blame.

Verdict
Lordy, lordy, isn’t this just fun. It turns out that what many had mistaken as some sort of personality defect turns out to be a culturally valuable characteristic. Your habit of, as your detractors near the water-cooler term it, ‘Going the White Pointer’ is historically attested. You always had a suspicion that once they examined you, they’d have to rewrite the evolution textbooks - and there you go.
