First things first, I'm a rat... that's right, my Chinese zodiac sign is the RAT! Here's a little about the Rat...
The Rat
Rats are charming, elegant and clever. They can be a bit gossipy and prone to being distracted. They’re also thrifty and very good with handling money. Family and close friends are exceptionally important to them. The Rat is charming beyond words and throughout his undoubtedly long life he will always be popular and will have many friends.
Now before I tell you my 2011 forecast, let's look back at my 2010 forecast (2010 was the year of the Tiger!)
let's see how true it really was...
Forecast for 2010
The Rat may be feeling quite tired and deflated after 2009, which saw him keeping his head down, working and staying out of trouble (I wasn't tired, but it was a year of hard work that's for sure.) The Year of the Tiger is going to be fast-paced for the Rat, which in itself does tend to make them slightly uncomfortable (not me, I'm always doing a million things at once, and its true 2010 was no different.) But it is essential that they go with the flow and seize opportunities and take adventures – this year is going to be important for them. A lot of Rats may have dreamt of travel in 2009 but were unable to take trips either due to financial or work commitments. This year will be so different! Travel will feature strongly for many and if there is dream destination in mind, it may become a reality during 2010 (I did travel A LOT - 10 trips in 12 months.) February and March can bring interesting work offers (true, although I declined one, I did start my wedding and event planning business in March '10!) while June to August and December will bring happy social occasions (especially true, June - stagette, July - bridal shower and August - our wedding, and of course December all of our amazing parties!) Romantically, September and October bring tempting offers for single Rats, while those who are attached will find the summer most special (yes our wedding!) It is essential for all persons born under this sign to be extra thoughtful and caring throughout the year – an inadvertent remark or gesture could lead to discord with loved ones (more true than I want to acknowledge...)
