Happy Year of the Pig
The Chinese New Year begins with the New Moon today. It's the Year of the Pig - Fire Pig or Golden Pig or Red Fire Pig, depending on whose translation you're looking at.

Pigs bring money
Pigs bring disaster
Good Lord, even my alma mater's getting into it
And the forecast for Dogs like me this year:
The Pig year is the perfect emotional salve for Dogs who have experienced heartache in the past. You can trust the chivalrous Pig, so don't be afraid to extend your heart this year. A safe, protected year where home and hearth is king. The Dog builds and the Pig furnishes the life palace of home and family. This year will give you many occasions to prove your worth, but in order to achieve your objectives, be prepared and organized. Your nervousness and tendency to worry may peak in April or May, but know that most of what you are uneasy about will never materialize. Service to others is the key to your happiness.
Happy New Year!
Happy Chinese New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai
