2007 Predictions: Managing Problems and Difficulties

To manage problems and difficulties during this period, note of the following:

A lot of ideas are burning in you at this period but it is often attacked or put down. Your leadership ability may also be questioned.

It is best perhaps to avoid taking on leadership roles unless they are your personal and independent endeavors. However, if it can't be avoided, ensure that you have a hands-on team who'll be willing to share the task ahead, provide pro-active feedback, and find ways to resolve problems without finger-pointing.

Be careful with the people you mingle with. Your good intentions can bounced back negatively for weird reasons. Watch out for signs of being taken advantage of. Be ready to bend the rules a little in order to protect yourself from further attacks.

Trust your intuition and pursue goals because you want to, rather being time-bound pressured. Be careful not too overload yourself as it will affect quality time for friends, relationships, team building, and yourself.

2007 Good Luck Predictions

To attract good luck in 2007, note of the following:

Luck favors those who tries to initiate their own endeavors, whether career, business, or taking care of yourself. Good balancing act is needed if there are people dependent on you, to avoid any feeling neglect.

Take advantage of this period where almost everyone wants a fresh start and doing things right. Taking risks in investment is ok but should be calculated and minimal.

Taking in new activities or hobbies is encouraged, without getting in the way of your usual work. These new hobbies, surprisingly, may give you new revenue stream too.

Don't be too showy in flaunting what you are capable of, no matter how good you are. Just keep doing what you are good at without much funfare. Don't forget on the need to be pragmatic as well with your spending.

Don't hesitate to seek out a partner who can understand you. This is within your reach now. Spending quality time with loved ones, peers, and friends is important as this will keep your feet on the ground. Make sure to have time for it as their support is vital to your success.This year, it is all about pursuing what you want - your dreams.

Hesitation can be expected from the people around us. However, it is best to always keep your cool, be more patient, and understanding.

2007 Fortune Reader Predictions Introduction

My bead jewelry hobby was triggered last year after getting a copy of Lilian Too's Fortune & Feng Shui series. Most of our early bead jewelry work was heavily influenced by it. They served as symbolic reminders on the things that I should watch out for and reminders of encouragement.

When there are predictions of bad month, I worked on them way ahead of time so that the month turns as business as usual with hardly any firefighting on my side. As a result, 2006 has become a much manageable and controlled year.

No lap chun in 2007
The 2007 predictions though are tough. First thing that struck me is that there's no lap chun in 2007. Lap chun is the major difference between the Chinese lunar calendar (where Chinese horoscope is usually based) and solar calendar (where Flying Star Feng Shui is often based). Lilian Too said in her books that this coming year begins on February 18, long after the day of Spring, and therefore no lap chun. We are encouraged to start planning anything important and get it done on or before the Chinese New Year. Else, obstacles can hinder us or not even succeed in getting projects off the ground. This includes moving offices, launching a new business, building a new house, among others. However, any bad luck is dissolved by celebrating happy occassions such as a new baby or marriage.

For readings to be more personalized, I combine it with astrology, numerology, and tarot. This profiling I also do for clients and peers so I can be aware of what possibly lies ahead of them.

I consider all of this as just reminders. Luck chances are higher to those who persevere and are working hard/smart in order to achieve success.

I only hope that one day, social networking tools will incorporate these things more seriously rather than just merely telling your horoscope for the day.
