Protection In The Year of the Fire Dog
For those of you who don’t know, 2006 is the Year of the Fire Dog and it is already playing out as negatively as the Flying Star Feng Shui masters have predicted. Their predictions were mudslides, famine, earthquakes, arguments, fighting, gossip and misunderstandings. So far there has been a terrible mudslide in the Philippines, drought in Africa and continuing violence across the middle east (and this is a half a month into this Chinese New Year!) This year also signifies accidents with metal, which certainly fits in with Dick Cheney’s recent accident quail hunting.

Those most affected by these influences are those born in the year of the Dragon. The ultimate protection against disasters (The Flying Star Feng Shui Cure) is to carry three amethysts on your person. Enhancing the metal element in your home or office (try hanging chimes or bells) will also help. Six Chinese coins tied with a red ribbon ward off poverty. You should also use more blue in your decoration rather than red. Too many candles in the home may also bring misfortune during the year of the Fire Dog.
