Dragon

1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012

Although Dragon is the master in 2012, but this period will bring him a lot of problems that need to be addressed on the go. A representative of this zodiac sign will be inclined to take upon his mighty shoulders a lot of work, and is at risk of even overestimating his own strength, and not cope with high ambitions and plans. Think quality not quantity and 2012 will be monumental for you.

Snake

1917, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001

For Snake, the difficulties of the year 2012 will seem not quite so pervasive – he can avoid sharp corners, and will calmly work in a planned manner, focusing on his own subtle intuition and natural wisdom. Snake will try to turn around all possibilities and problems in affairs for the maximum benefit for himself. It is highly recommended that you retreat or take a pilgrimage in later part of 2012.

Horse

1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002

2012 is the end of a long period of obstruction and reclusiveness. All Horse’s thoughts must not be frivolous in nature – he must be extremely careful and serious so as to be ready to adequately encounter both challenges and successes in his affairs. Now is the time to use your insight and step into the limelight. Get more assertive, get a fresh start and new direction. This is your time!

Goat

1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003

2012 for the Goat will be calm, though not without difficulties. If you want a change of scene, wait until autumn. Overshelm can lead to carelessness. Conserve and withdraw are key words until Autumn when you will get a second change on all fronts. 2012 is an excellent year for self-reflection, recalibrating efforts and values.

Monkey

1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004

For Monkey, the year 2012 will be very productive, he will gladly flow into the high pace of work, and will feel at ease in the most intense affairs of 2012. Monkey skillfully using problems as a chance to show all his talents, will show himself in a team. He is optimistic, never discouraged, and even after defeat when other zodiac signs may retreat before difficulties, the Monkey will feel fine, and break forward, despite defeat.

Rooster

1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005

The Rooster is one of the few zodiac signs, that will feel an extraordinary lightness and lift in strength, and this will allow him overcome even the greatest difficulties in his path. In addition to absolute leadership inclinations, great ambitions in the year 2012 will require the ability to communicate, work in teams, actively and quickly respond to problems and be more attentive to close ones.

Dog

1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006

Dog in 2012 of the Black Water Dragon will feel relaxed, he will be determined for an active, long-term work. For 2012, Dog will have as much material and social benefits as how much he can earn and take in his life. Dog should not fidget about and think twice – decisions must be taken accurately, quickly and decisively. Don’t travel, speculate or make any big changes until year ends.

Pig

1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007

The Pig would be happy to enjoy all the benefits and opportunities of the year 2012. This is a good time full of victories, good work, and most importantly – of material prosperity. The Pig is an open, cheerful and good-natured zodiac sign and loves to help others in need and people. But even in spite of the favorable trends of 2012, Pigs can remain indifferent to the many opportunities, being carried away by funny holidays, and not noticing the boring but necessary work.

Rat

1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008

The meticulous and thorough attributes of Rats will get a strong jolt of energy in 2012. The greatest success can be achieved by a Rat, which is occupied with business, entrepreneurship, commercial activities, as well as a representative of this zodiac sign engaged in art work, culture and art.

Ox

1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009

Ox will feel the stress of business affairs, but such prospects that he never dreamed of will immediately open. Ox should not seek solely to self-enrichment and acquisition of luxury – for him, is much more important to develop flexible work tactics and methods for efficient conduct of business.

Tiger

1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010

Tiger in 2012 will feel himself in his element – he likes high intensity of activities, and he will be only glad to constant provocations of problems, taking them for a better chance to showcase his remarkable abilities. This 2012 will require not less work, but the results of Tiger’s labor will be seen already by the first days of 2012.

Rabbit

1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011

Rabbit is perhaps his master’s favorite in the year 2012 of the Black Water Dragon. She/he will not have as many problems as other members of the zodiacal circle and can achieve much success if she/he will learn to cope with difficulties. Your 2011 dreams will manifest and flourish in 2012.

Gui (Yin Water) Daymaster

 Gentle rain showers, fine mist, soft dewdrops.

Gui Water Day Master represents mists, dew and fine droplets of water. It is the kind of water that covers large areas of space in a short amount of time. Just like the water nourishes the soil, grows plants, and brings seeds to fruition, Gui Water people nurture and inspire others. They often seem soft-hearted and naive on the outside and are very wise inside. They have the fine touch, just like a misty drizzle and will rarely be over-bearing or forceful.

Looking at the BaZi 2012 chart, we see Yang Water on the year and month and Yin Wood on the day and hour pillar. Water is the strongest element, so Water industry such as trade, retail, spa, hospitality, recreational resorts can benefit. With Wood in all 4 pillars, “Wood” industries such as education, publishing, iBook’s, eBooks, academic, research, healthcare, pharmaceuticals and,“green business” will flourish and prosper in 2012.

Based on the chart, Earth element is weak and it represents real estate and property. Therefore, property will continue to drop but only a minor deterioration as the earth element does not face any clashes. The Metal element in this chart is also weak and Metal represents finance, banking, and insurance; as well as the Fire element which represents technology, IT, oil and gas and electronics. They are both not stable and will face some problems and will experience most volatility this year.

Looking at the 2012 BaZi chart, Water element is dominating the chart. Therefore, it shows there will be a lot of floods, water related issues and disasters, especially in the South-east sector of the world due to No. 5 Yellow Star location. Meanwhile, you can see the Dragon and Goat which are both earth elements, so we can see there will be a lot of earthquakes for Water element floods the Earth.

The most favorable element for 2012 is Yin Fire to warm up the cold chart. If the Fire element is in your BaZi natal chart or in your 10 year luck cycle, then new opportunities will come to you in 2012.

That said, 2012 is going to be one of the most significant years that any of us have ever lived through. There will be a powerful driving forces towards progress, sweeping changes in culture, geopolitics, environmental policies and and profound changes in the lives of individuals. The time is here to decide what matters the most and take action. There is also spiritual theme in 2012 leading to renewal, healing, growth and recovery.

What is your Day Master, and why is it so significant? The Day Master represents your most basic self and identity. Your essential personality and character traits, strengths and weaknesses. Each person is different and unique according to his or her respective Day Master.

Gang (Yang Metal)

Raw metal of powerful sword or axe

Geng Metal Day Master is the ultimate doer! Trust the Geng personality to get the job done. As such, the Geng person should not be in a career that only deals with planning, strategy or analysis work. He or she is suited to a job or career that involves hands-on action and requires swift execution! Geng Metal people are tough souls who can usually endure any amount of hardship.

Xin (Yin Metal)

Akin to sparkling, delicate Jewelry

Xin Metal Day Master tends to be stylish and elegant. They look friendly in surface but on the other hand they are very sharp, accurate and firm. Xin Metal is about living the good life. They love glamorous lifestyle and sophistication. Xin Metal must be careful of being covered by -earth, it must be uncovered to shine.

Wu (Yang Earth)

Rocky mountain, boulders and rocks

Wu Earth Day Master are faithful, sincere and are practical about the realities of a situation. They move slow and make up for it with loyalty and longevity and are prone to worrying about everything under the sun. They are broad minded and trustworthy. Wu earth is attractive when it’s large like a mountain not like a small hill and it’s the backbone of all life.
Earth people are stable, nurturing, and are practical about the realities of a situation. Fairness is a predominant quality. They move slow and make up for it with loyalty and longevity and are prone to worrying about everything under the sun.

Earth people are just and noble, kind, flexible, accommodating, appreciate the goodness in others. They can also be unpredictable, indecisive, procrastinators, stubborn and unyielding. Abrupt change disturbs them. They can be great defenders of human rights with an inner strength. Some are fatalistic gamblers and always do things the hard way.

Ji (Yin Earth)

Ji Earth Day Master people are clear about what is good and bad and what they like and hate. They keep clear memory about the past. They are patient and benevolent, which sometimes means ‘religious’. They are capricious and adapt to environment very well. Ji earth is most talented of 10 stems for it produce wood and contains 10,000 things.

Ji people are clear about what is good and bad and what they like and hate. They keep clear memory about the past. They are patient and benevolent, which sometimes means ‘religious’. They are capricious and adapt to environment very well.

Ji earth is already wet, means has wealth element, all other 10 stems do not have wealth nature with them except for ji earth. It is pure and likes to absorb and contain, does not get destroyed by prosperous wood and not afraid of water, it can actually stall water, b/c earth contains absorbs water, only if it is not too overflowing water. Ji earth must NEVER be greedy! Earth is dispersed and it becomes muddy (illness) wood helps filter the earth from the water.

BING (Yang Fire)

The Strong, far-reaching rays of sun.

Bing Fire Day Master is represented by the Sun. The Sun shining bright, giving warmth to all living things, and it comes out every day without fail. Just like the sun can be counted on to rise every day, Bing Fire people are often going over the same routine day after day. They don’t take to changes easily and are not keen to embrace new concepts or ideas. Like the sun, Bing Fire individuals will never give up and nothing can keep them down! Where would we be without the sun?

DING (Yin Fire)

 A candle in the wind.

Ding Fire Day Master is represented by a flame from a candle. They may not be able to radiate warmth to the far corners of the world, but when warmth is needed, a candle or a torch can brighten and enlighten others. Ding Fire people are detail-oriented, precise and enjoy inspiring others by leading the path forward. Just like the fire from a candle flickers according to the strength and direction of the wind, Ding Fire people can be volatile and like a fast spreading wild fire.

JIA (Yang Wood)

A tall, sturdy tree with deep roots…

Jia Wood Day Master individuals are independent, steadfast and determined. Just like a tree grows upright, being unafraid of reaching too tall or overpowering any other plants. Jia Wood people are straightforward in their actions, and frank and direct in their speech. They are a strong, solid tree with deep roots going down into the earth. Rooted trees are immovable unless chopped down. As a result, they can be stubborn and quite obstinate. It will take a lot of axe to cut them down to size.

Yi (Yin Wood)

Soft flowering plants and soft creeping ivy…

Yi Wood Day Master are cheerful and are full of ideas. They are quick-witted, tactful and diplomatic in talking to others. They look soft in their surface like seeds, but they will sprout from the soil. Yi Wood individuals project a pleasing, sophisticated air and are very well-mannered and soft-spoken. They needs a social network that is as wide as possible for creeping vines and flowering bushes will always find a way to reach the sunlight and stay alive.

The words “Fate” and “Destiny” are often used interchangeably in the modern context – hence the confusion to many. In actual fact, there is a difference. “Fate” is termed as a preordained course of one’s life that will occur beyond our control. “Destiny”, on the other hand, is a set of predetermined events within one’s life that one can take control in shaping it.

Ancient sages believed that the universe is made up of a Heaven, Earth and Man, called the Cosmic Trinity, each influencing 33% of our lives. Our life path and a certain degree of our fortunes are set by Heaven, the environment (Earth) of Feng Shui magnifies our fortunes or luck, but Man’s own action or inaction is what makes an outcome swing either way.

Therefore, a person with limited capacity will achieve much success if he puts in the hard work and have a positive attitude. But the individual with the capacity to do great things may squander his or her potential if no action was taken.

Find out about your capacity, your limitations and potential.
